Sayyiduna al-Sa'ib bin Yazid (may Allah be pleased with him) relates: the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us to have cupping done, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "People have not used any treatment better than it, or (better than) drinking honey."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains Yazid bin Abd al-Malik al-Nawfali, who is matruk (abandoned); according to one view, in one of the differing reports transmitted from Yahya bin Ma'in, there is no harm in this narrator.
