Amir bin Abdullah bin al-Zubayr narrates from his father that he came into the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was being cupped (hijamah). When he (peace and blessings be upon him) had finished, he said: "O Abdullah! Take this blood away and bury it somewhere no one can see you." When he had gone out from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he went to that blood and drank it. Then, when he came back, he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "O Abdullah! What did you do with that blood?" He said: I have put it in an extremely hidden place, which I am sure will remain hidden from people. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Perhaps you have drunk it?" He said: Yes. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Why did you drink the blood?" Then he said: 'Waylun lin-nasi minka, wa waylun laka min an-nas' (Woe to people from you, and woe to you from people), that is, people will face ruin and trial because of you, and you will face ruin because of people.
Abu Salamah said: I narrated this incident to Abu Asim, and he said: People used to think that the extraordinary strength present in Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) was due to that blessed blood.
Imam al-Bazzar also narrated it through Muhammad bin al-Muthanna from Musa bin Isma'il with this same chain.
