Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them). He says that when a woman faces difficulty in childbirth, these two verses and words should be written on a page, then washed off and the water given to the woman to drink. (The translation of the words is as follows) In the name of Allah, besides whom there is no deity, who is Most Forbearing and Most Generous. Glory be to Allah, who is the Lord of the seven heavens and the Lord of the Great Throne. { کَأَنَّہُمْ یَوْمَ یَرَوْنَہَا لَمْ یَلْبَثُوا إِلاَّ عَشِیَّۃً ، أَوْ ضُحَاہَا } and { کَأَنَّہُمْ یَوْمَ یَرَوْنَ مَا یُوعَدُونَ لَمْ یَلْبَثُوا إِلاَّ سَاعَۃً مِنْ نَہَارٍ بَلاَغٌ فَہَلْ یُہْلَکُ إلاَّ الْقَوْمُ الْفَاسِقُونَ }.
