Mukhtasar Muslim

‘Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that’ the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) permitted the people of Al-Hazm to perform ruqyah (incantation) for snake bites. And he said to Asma bint Umais (may Allah be pleased with her): “What is the reason that I find my brother’s children (i.e., the sons of Ja’far bin Abi Talib) thin? Are they hungry?” Asma (may Allah be pleased with her) said: “No, they are quickly affected by the evil eye.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Perform ruqyah for them.” I presented a ruqyah before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said: “Recite this ruqyah over them.”
