Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) had Sayyiduna As'ad bin Zurarah (may Allah be pleased with him) cauterized with a thorn.
(Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:) In narrating this report, the narrator named Yazid bin Zurai' is unique.
