Q: I just wanted to know if this hadeeth is authentic. Melon – Kharbuza / Tarbooz – The Prophet (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said: ‘None of your women who are pregnant and eat of water melon will fail to produce offspring that is good in countenance”.
A: We have not come across this.
And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
