It is narrated from Sayyiduna Thabit bin Qays bin Shammas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to him and made this supplication: 'Ikshif al-ba's, Rabb al-nas, 'an Thabit bin Qays bin Shammas' (Remove the harm, O Lord of mankind, from Thabit bin Qays bin Shammas). Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) took some soil from the valley of Buthan, put it into a cup containing water, and poured it over him.
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "Only Amr bin Yahya narrated this hadith from Yusuf bin Muhammad bin Thabit, and only Dawud al-Attar narrated from Amr bin Yahya, and Ibn Wahb is alone in narrating it."
