Summary
The fatwa does not explicitly rule that eating mushrooms is a sunnah. It sets out the definition, types and medical benefits of mushrooms based on expert views, and cites the hadith describing al-kam'ah as being from al-Manna, with water that cures eye ailments. It also notes that mushrooms come in many kinds, some edible and some poisonous.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Al-Kam'ah itu berasal dari Manna dan airnya penyembuh sakit mata.
