Hadith 2904

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا شَرِيكٌ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ " أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ احْتَجَمَ ثَلَاثًا فِي الْأَخْدَعَيْنِ ، وَبَيْنَ الْكَتِفَيْنِ ، وَأَعْطَى الْحَجَّامَ أُجْرَتَهُ ، وَلَوْ كَانَ حَرَامًا لَمْ يُعْطِهِ إِيَّاهُ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had impure blood drawn three times from the hidden veins on both sides of his neck and from between his two shoulders, and he gave the cupper his wage. If this wage had been unlawful, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would never have given it.
