Sayyiduna Ubadah bin al-Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: In the days of Ignorance (Jahiliyyah) I used to perform ruqyah for the evil eye. When I accepted Islam, I mentioned this to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said: "Present its words to me!" I presented them, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Perform ruqyah with them! There is no harm in them." Sayyiduna Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Had it not been for this, I would never have performed ruqyah on any human being.
Al-Tabarani recorded it, and its chain is hasan (good).
