He, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, used to ask about the health and affairs of his relatives:

Jaabir ibn ‘Abdullaah narrated that the Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, gave permission to the family of Hazm to perform Ruqyah (reciting words or the Quran for healing purposes) from a snakebite. He, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, also said to Asmaa’ bint ‘Umays: “Why do I see the children of my brother weak and thin? Did poverty strike them?” She said: “No, but they have been afflicted with the evil eye” He, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “Perform Ruqyah for them.” So I told him the Ruqyah I would say, so he, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “Perform Ruqyah for them.”

Umm Al-Munthir bint Qays (a Companion) who was from the Ansaar, said: “The Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, and ‘Ali entered my home, and we had some unripe dates, so the Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, began to eat some. ‘Ali had recently partially recovered from a sickness, so he wanted to eat some dates also, but the Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “Do not, you have only recently recovered.” She continued, “Then I made some food from barley and a kind of leafy vegetable and brought it to them, so the Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “O ‘Ali, eat from this, it is better for you.”
