حَدَّثَنَا مُجَاهِدُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ : سُحِرَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - حَتَّى إِنَّهُ لَيُخَيَّلُ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ فَعَلَ الشَّيْءَ وَمَا فَعَلَهُ ، حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ ، وَهُوَ عِنْدِي ، دَعَا اللهَ ، وَدَعَا ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : أَشَعَرْتِ يَا عَائِشَةُ أَنَّ اللهَ قَدْ أَفْتَانِي فِيمَا اسْتَفْتَيْتُهُ فِيهِ ؟ قُلْتُ : وَمَا ذَاكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ : أَتَانِي مَلَكَانِ ، فَجَلَسَ أَحَدُهُمَا عِنْدَ رَأْسِي ، وَالْآخَرُ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيَّ . ثُمَّ قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِصَاحِبِهِ : مَا وَجَعُ الرَّجُلِ ؟ قَالَ : مَطْبُوبٌ قَالَ : مَنْ طَبَّهُ ؟ قَالَ : لَبِيدُ بْنُ الْأَعْصَمِ الْيَهُودِيُّ مِنْ بَنِي زُرَيْقٍ قَالَ : فِي مَاذَا ؟ قَالَ : فِي مُشْطٍ وَمُشَاطَةٍ قَالَ : فَأَيْنَ هُوَ ؟ قَالَ : فِي بِئْرِ ذِي أَرْوَانَ قَالَ : فَذَهَبَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَنَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ إِلَى الْبِئْرِ ، فَنَظَرُوا إِلَيْهَا وَنَخْلِهَا ، ثُمَّ رَجَعَ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ ، فَقَالَ : وَاللهِ كَأَنَّ مَاءَهَا نُقَاعَةُ الْحِنَّاءِ ، وَكَأَنَّ نَخْلَهَا رُءُوسُ الشَّيَاطِينِ . قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، فَأَخْرَجْتَهُ ؟ قَالَ : لَا ، أَمَّا أَنَا فَقَدْ عَافَانِي اللهُ وَشَفَانِي ، وَخَشِيتُ أَنْ أُثَوِّرَ عَلَى النَّاسِ مِنْهُ شَرًّا ، فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَدُفِنَتْ .
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that magic was worked on the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), to the point that he (peace and blessings be upon him) would imagine that he had done something when in reality he had not done it. Then one day, when he (peace and blessings be upon him) was with me, he (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated to Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, again and again, and then said: "O Aishah, do you know that Allah Almighty has answered me concerning the matter in which I sought His guidance?" I said: "O Messenger of Allah, what is that?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Two angels came to me; one of them sat at my head and the other at my feet. Then one said to his companion: 'What is the ailment of this man?' He replied: 'He has been bewitched.' The first asked: 'Who bewitched him?' He said: 'Labid bin al-A'sam, a Jew of Banu Zurayq.' He asked: 'In what (did he work the magic)?' He said: 'In a comb and the hair that falls out while combing.' He asked: 'Where is it?' He replied: 'It is in the well called Dhu Arwan.'" Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) says: Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to that well with some of his Companions and looked at it. Then he came back and said to me: "O Aishah, by Allah, the water of that well looked (reddish) like an infusion of henna, and the date palms there looked like the heads of devils." I said: "O Messenger of Allah, did you not take out those materials of magic?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No, for Allah had granted me healing and well-being, and I disliked stirring up any evil or trouble among the people because of it." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) gave the order, and the well was filled in.
