Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A scorpion stung the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) while he was praying. When he finished his prayer, he said: "May Allah Almighty curse the scorpion! It spares neither one who prays nor one who does not." Then he called for water and salt, began to wipe that spot with his hand, and began to recite Surah al-Kafirun, Surah al-Falaq and Surah al-Nas.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Saghir, and its chain is hasan (good).
