أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ، " أَنَّ رَهْطًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ انْطَلَقُوا فِي سَفْرَةٍ سَافَرُوهَا ، فَنَزَلُوا بِحَيٍّ مِنْ أَحْيَاءِ الْعَرَبِ ، فَاسْتَضَافُوهُمْ ، فَأَبَوْا أَنْ يُضَيِّفُوهُمْ ، قَالَ : فَلُدِغَ سَيِّدُ ذَلِكَ الْحَيِّ فَشَفَوْا لَهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ لَا يَنْفَعُهُ شَيْءٌ ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : لَوْ أَتَيْتُمْ هَؤُلَاءِ الرَّهْطَ الَّذِينَ نَزَلُوا بِكُمْ لَعَلَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ عِنْدَ بَعْضِهِمْ شَيْءٌ يَنْفَعُ صَاحِبَكُمْ ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ : إِنَّ سَيِّدَنَا لُدِغَ فَشَفَيْنَا لَهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ ، فَلَا يَنْفَعُهُ شَيْءٌ ، فَهَلْ عِنْدَ أَحَدٍ مِنْكُمْ شَيْءٌ يَشْفِي صَاحِبَنَا ؟ يَعْنِي رُقْيَةً ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنِ الْقَوْمِ : إِنِّي لَأَرْقِي ، وَلَكِنْ اسْتَضَفْنَاكُمْ فَأَبَيْتُمْ أَنْ تُضَيِّفُونَا ، مَا أَنَا بِرَاقٍ حَتَّى تَجْعَلُوا لِي جُعْلًا ، فَجَعَلُوا لَهُ قَطِيعًا مِنِ الشَّاءِ ، فَأَتَاهُ ، فَقَرَأَ عَلَيْهِ بِأُمِّ الْكِتَابِ وَيَتْفِلُ حَتَّى بَرِئَ ، كَأَنَّمَا أُنْشِطَ مِنْ عِقَالٍ فَأَوْفَاهُمْ جُعْلَهُمُ الَّذِي صَالَحُوهُ عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَالُوا : اقْتَسِمُوا ، فَقَالَ الَّذِي رَقَى : لَا تَفْعَلُوا حَتَّى نَأْتِيَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَنَسْتَأْمِرَهُ ، فَغَدَوْا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَذَكَرُوا ذَلِكَ لَهُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مِنْ أَيْنَ عَلِمْتُمْ أَنَّهَا رُقْيَةٌ ؟ أَحْسَنْتُمْ وَاضْرِبُوا لِي مَعَكُمْ بِسَهْمٍ " .
Narrated Abu Saeed Al Khudri: Some of the Companions of Prophet ﷺ went on a journey. They encamped with a clan of the Arabs and sought hospitality from them, but they refused to provide them with any hospitality. The chief of the clan was stung by a scorpion or bitten by a snake. They gave him all sorts of treatment, but nothing gave him relied. One of them said: Would that you had gone to those people who encamped with you ; some of them might have something which could give you relief to your companion. (So they went and) one of them said: Our chief has been stung by a scorpion or bitten by a snake. We administered all sorts of medicine but nothing gave him relief. Has any of you anything, i. e. charm, which gives healing to our companion. One of those people said: I shall apply charm; we sought hospitality from you, but you refused to entertain us. I am not going to apply charm until you give me some wages. So they offered them a number of sheep. He then came to and recited Faithat-al-Kitab and spat until he was cured as if he were set free from a bond. Thereafter they made payment of the wages as agreed by them. They said: Apportion (the wages). The man who applied the charm said: Do not do until we come to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and consult him. So they came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ next morning and mentioned it to him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: From where did you learn that it was a charm ? You have done right. Give me a share along with you.

حَدَّثَنَا
عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا
أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا
شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ

الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنْ
خَارِجَةَ بْنِ الصَّلْتِ ، عَنْ
عَمِّهِ ، " أَنَّهُ مَرَّ بِقَوْمٍ فَأَتَوْهُ ، فَقَالُوا : إِنَّكَ جِئْتَ مِنْ عِنْدِ هَذَا الرَّجُلِ بِخَيْرٍ ، فَارْقِ لَنَا هَذَا الرَّجُلَ ، فَأَتَوْهُ بِرَجُلٍ مَعْتُوهٍ فِي الْقُيُودِ ، فَرَقَاهُ بِأُمِّ الْقُرْآنِ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ غُدْوَةً وَعَشِيَّةً ، وَكُلَّمَا خَتَمَهَا جَمَعَ بُزَاقَهُ ، ثُمَّ تَفَلَ ، فَكَأَنَّمَا أُنْشِطَ مِنْ عِقَالٍ فَأَعْطَوْهُ شَيْئًا ، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَذَكَرَهُ لَهُ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : كُلْ فَلَعَمْرِي لَمَنْ أَكَلَ بِرُقْيَةٍ بَاطِلٍ ، لَقَدْ أَكَلْتَ بِرُقْيَةٍ حَقٍّ " .
Kharijah bin al-Salt quoted his paternal uncle as saying that he passed by a clan (of the Arab) who came to him and said: You have brought what is good from this man. Then they brought a lunatic in chains. He recited Surat al-Fatihah over him three days, morning and evening. When he finished, he collected his saliva and then spat it out, (he felt relief) as if he were set free from a bond. They gave him something (as wages). He then came to the Prophet ﷺ and mentioned it to him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Accept it, for by my life, some accept it for a worthless charm, but you have done so far a genuine one.
