Muslim

Jabir reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: There is a remedy for every malady, and when the remedy is applied to the disease it is cured with the permission of Allah, the Exalted and Glorious.

Jabir reported that he visited Muqanna' and then said: I will not go away unless you get yourself cupped, for I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) say: It is a remedy.

'Asim bin 'Umar bin Qatada reported: There came to our house 'Abdullah and another person from amongst the members of the household who complained of a wound. Jabir said: What ails you? He said: There is a wound which is very painful for me, whereupon he said: Boy, bring to me a cupper. He said: 'Abdullah, what do you intend to do with the cupper? I said: I would get this wound cupped. He said: By Allah, even the touch of fly or cloth causes me pain and cupping would thus cause me (unbearable) pain. And when he saw him feeling pain (at the idea of cupping), he said: I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: If there is any effective remedy amongst your remedies, these are (three): Cupping, drinking of honey and cauterisation with the help of fire. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had said: As for myself I do not like cauterisation. The cupper was called and he cupped him and he was all right.

Jabir reported that Umm Salamah sought permission from Allah's messenger (may Allah's peace upon him) for getting herself cupped. The Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) asked Abu Taiba to cup her. He (Jabir) said: I think he (Abu Taiba) was her foster brother or a young boy before entering upon the adolescent period.

Jabir reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) sent a physician to Ubayy bin Ka'b. He cut the vein and then cauterised it.

Jabir bin 'Abdillah reported that on the day of Ahzab Ubayy received the wound of an arrow in his medial arm vein. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) cauterised it.

Jabir reported that Sa'd bin Mu'adh received a wound of the arrow in his vein. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) cauterised it with a rod and it was swollen, so the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) did it for the second time.

Ibn 'Abbas reported that Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) got himself cupped and gave to the cupper his wages and he put the medicine in the nostril.

Anas bin Malik (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) got himself cupped and never withheld the wages of anyone.

Ibn 'Umar (RA) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: The fever is from the vehement raging of the (heat of Hell), so cool it with the help of water.

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Hisham with the same chain of transmitters.

Asma' reported that a woman running high fever was brought to her. She asked water to be brought and then sprinkled it in the opening of a shirt at the uppermost part of the chest and said that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had said: Cool (the fever) with water, for it is because of the vehemence of the heat of Hell.

Hisham reported this hadith with the same chain of transmitters. In the hadith transmitted on the authority of Ibn Numair (the words are): "She poured water on her sides and in the opening of the shirt at the uppermost part of the chest." There is no mention of these words: "It is from the vehemence of the heat of the Hell."
