It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man of our tribe became seriously ill, and the physicians said that he would not recover except by cauterisation. So his family intended to cauterise him, but some of them said: No, not until we ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about it. So they consulted him (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No." Then the man recovered (without being cauterised). When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saw him (healthy), he asked: "Is this the man of such-and-such a family?" They said: Yes. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, if this man had been cauterised, people would certainly have said that it was only the cauterisation that cured him."
Mujalid is da'if (weak).
