Chapter 22: On which days should cupping be done - كتاب الطب
حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ مَطَرٍ، عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنِ النَّهَّاسِ بْنِ قَهْمٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ
" مَنْ أَرَادَ الْحِجَامَةَ فَلْيَتَحَرَّ سَبْعَةَ عَشَرَ أَوْ تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ أَوْ إِحْدَى وَعِشْرِينَ وَلاَ يَتَبَيَّغْ بِأَحَدِكُمُ الدَّمُ فَيَقْتُلَهُ " .
It was
narrated from Anas bin Malik that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
said:
“Whoever wants to be cupped, let him seek out the seventeenth,
nineteenth or twenty-first (of the month); and let none of you allow
his blood to rage so that it kills him.”
“O Nafi’! The blood is boiling
in
me, find me a cupper, but let it be someone gentle if you can, not
an
old man or a young boy. For I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)
say:
‘Cupping on an empty stomach is better, and in it there is
healing
and blessing, and it increases one’s intellect and memory. So
have
yourselves cupped for the blessing of Allah on Thursdays, and
avoid
cupping on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. Have
yourselves cupped on Mondays and Tuesdays, for that is the day on
which Allah relieved Ayyub of Calamity, and He inflicted calamity
upon
him on a Wednesday, and leprosy and leucoderma only appear on
Wednesdays, or on the night of Wednesday.”
“Ibn ‘Umar said: ‘O Nafi’! The
blood
is boiling in me. Bring me a cupper and let him be a young man,
not an
old man or a boy.’ Ibn ‘Umar said: ‘I heard the
Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) say: “Cupping on an empty stomach is
better, and it increases
one’s intellect and memory. And it
increases the memory of one who has
a good memory so whoever wants to
be cupped, (let him do it) on a
Thursday, in the Name of Allah. Avoid
cupping on Fridays, Saturdays
and Sundays. Have yourselves cupped on
Mondays and Tuesdays, and avoid
cupping on Wednesdays, for that is
the day on which the calamity
befell Ayyub, and leprosy and
leucoderma only appear on Wednesday or
the night of Wednesday.”
“Healing is in three things: A
drink of honey, the glass of the cupper, and cauterizing with fire,
but I forbid my nation to use cauterization.” And he attributed it
to
the Prophet (ﷺ).
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، غُنْدَرٌ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الدَّارِمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ الأَنْصَارِيُّ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَمِّي، يَحْيَى - وَمَا أَدْرَكْتُ رَجُلاً مِنَّا بِهِ شَبِيهًا يُحَدِّثُ النَّاسَ أَنَّ سَعْدَ بْنَ زُرَارَةَ - وَهُوَ جَدُّ مُحَمَّدٍ مِنْ قِبَلِ أُمِّهِ أَنَّهُ أَخَذَهُ وَجَعٌ فِي حَلْقِهِ يُقَالُ لَهُ الذُّبْحَةُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ " لأُبْلِغَنَّ أَوْ لأُبْلِيَنَّ فِي أَبِي أُمَامَةَ عُذْرًا " . فَكَوَاهُ بِيَدِهِ فَمَاتَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ " مِيتَةَ سُوءٍ لِلْيَهُودِ يَقُولُونَ أَفَلاَ دَفَعَ عَنْ صَاحِبِهِ . وَمَا أَمْلِكُ لَهُ وَلاَ لِنَفْسِي شَيْئًا " .
Muhammad
bin ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Sa’d bin Zurarah Al-Ansari said:
“I
heard
my paternal uncle Yahya – and I have not seen a man among us
like
him – tell the people that Sa'd bin Zurarah, who was the
grandfather of Muhammad through his mother, was suffering from pain
in
his throat, known as croup. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘I shall do
my
best for Abu Umamah.’ Such that I will be excused (i.e., free of
blame
if he is not healed). And he cauterized him with his own hand,
but he
died. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: ‘May the Jews be doomed! They
will say:
“Why could he not avert death from his Companions?” But
I have no
power to do anything for him or for my own self.’”
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَقُولُ
" عَلَيْكُمْ بِالإِثْمِدِ عِنْدَ النَّوْمِ فَإِنَّهُ يَجْلُو الْبَصَرَ وَيُنْبِتُ الشَّعَرَ " .
It was
narrated that Jabir said:
“I heard the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ)
say: ‘You should use antimony when you go to sleep, for it
improves
the eyesight and makes the hair (eyelashes) grow.’”
It was
narrated that Tariq bin Suwaid Al-Hadrami said:
“I said: ‘O
Messenger of Allah, in our land there are grapes which we squeeze (to
make wine). Can we drink from it?’ He said: ‘No.’ I repeated
the
question and said: ‘We treat the sick with it.’ He said:
‘That is not
a cure, it is a disease.’”
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ، حَدَّثَنَا فَائِدٌ، مَوْلَى عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي رَافِعٍ حَدَّثَنِي مَوْلاَىَ، عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَتْنِي جَدَّتِي، سَلْمَى أُمُّ رَافِعٍ مَوْلاَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَتْ كَانَ لاَ يُصِيبُ النَّبِيَّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَرْحَةٌ وَلاَ شَوْكَةٌ إِلاَّ وَضَعَ عَلَيْهِ الْحِنَّاءَ .
Salma
Umm Rafi’, the freed slave woman of the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ),
said:
“The Prophet (ﷺ) did not suffer any injury or thorn-
prick
but he would apply henna to it.”
حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ، حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ نَاسًا، مِنْ عُرَيْنَةَ قَدِمُوا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَاجْتَوَوُا الْمَدِينَةَ فَقَالَ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ
" لَوْ خَرَجْتُمْ إِلَى ذَوْدٍ لَنَا فَشَرِبْتُمْ مِنْ أَلْبَانِهَا وَأَبْوَالِهَا " . فَفَعَلُوا .
It was
narrated from Anas that some people from ‘Urainah came to the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) but they were averse to the climate of
Al-
Madinah. He (ﷺ) said:
“Why don’t you go out to a flock of
camels of
ours, and drink their milk and urine.” And they did that.
Chapter 31: If a fly falls into a vessel - كتاب الطب
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَالَ
" فِي أَحَدِ جَنَاحَىِ الذُّبَابِ سُمٌّ وَفِي الآخَرِ شِفَاءٌ فَإِذَا وَقَعَ فِي الطَّعَامِ فَامْقُلُوهُ فِيهِ فَإِنَّهُ يُقَدِّمُ السُّمَّ وَيُؤَخِّرُ الشِّفَاءَ " .
Abu
Sa’eed narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
“On one
of the wings of a fly there is a poison and on the other is the cure.
If it falls into the food, then dip it into it, for it puts the
poison
first and holds back the cure.”
It was
narrated that Abu Umamah bin Sahl bin Hunaif said:
“ ‘Amir bin
Rabi’ah passed by Sahl bin Hunaif when he was having a bath, and
said:
‘I have never seen such beautiful skin.’ Straightaway, he
(Sahl) fell
to the ground. He was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) and it
was said:
‘Sahl has had a fit.’ He said: ‘Whom do you accuse
with regard to
him?’ They said: “ ‘Amir bin Rabi’ah.’ They
said: ‘Why would anyone of
you kill his brother? If he sees
something that he likes, then let him
pray for blessing for him.’
Then he called for water, and he told
‘Amir to perform ablution,
then he washed his face and his arms up to
the elbows, his knees and
inside his lower garment, then he told him
to pour the water over
him.”
It was
narrated that ‘Ubaid bin Rifa’ah Az-Zuraqi said:
“Asma’ said:
‘O Messenger of Allah! The children of Ja’far have been afflicted
by
the evil eye, shall I recite Ruqyah* for them?’ He said: ‘Yes,
for if
anything were to overtake the Divine decree it would be the
evil
eye.’”
