1701 – Ibn ʿUmar, may Allah be pleased with him, reported that the Prophet ﷺ said, “Whoever eats from this tree”—meaning garlic—“let him not come near our mosque.” Agreed upon. Muslim’s wording is: “our mosques.”

1702 – Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, said that the Prophet ﷺ declared, “Whoever eats from this tree, let him not approach us or pray with us.” Agreed upon.

1703 – Jabir, may Allah be pleased with him, related that the Prophet ﷺ said, “Whoever has eaten garlic or onion should keep away from us, or keep away from our mosque.” Agreed upon. In another wording recorded by Muslim: “Whoever eats onion, garlic, or leek should not approach our mosque, for the angels are offended by the same things that offend the children of Adam.”
