Hadith 4207

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ أَبْجَرَ ، عَنْ إِيَادِ بْنِ لَقِيطٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي رِمْثَةَ فِي هَذَا الْخَبَرِ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبِي : أَرِنِي هَذَا الَّذِي بِظَهْرِكَ فَإِنِّي رَجُلٌ طَبِيبٌ ، قَالَ : اللَّهُ الطَّبِيبُ بَلْ أَنْتَ رَجُلٌ رَفِيقٌ طَبِيبُهَا الَّذِي خَلَقَهَا .
This version adds (to the previous hadith No 4194): My father said to him (the Prophet): Show me what is on your back, for I am a physician. He (the Prophet) said: You are only a soother. Its physician is He Who has credit it.
