Hadith 2658
حَدَّثَنَا
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى الصَّنْعَانِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا
الْمُعْتَمِرُ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ
حُمَيْدًا ، قَالَ : سُئِلَ
أَنَسٌ عَنِ الصَّائِمِ يَحْتَجِمُ ، فَقَالَ : مَا كُنَّا نَرَى إِنَّ ذَلِكَ يُكْرَهُ إِلا لِجَهْدِهِ ، وَلَمْ يُسْنِدْهُ ، وَقَالَ : " قَدِ احْتَجَمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ ، وَمِنْ وَجَعٍ وَجَدَهُ فِي رَأْسِهِ "
Hazrat Humaid narrates that it was asked from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), can a fasting person get cupping done? He replied that we used to dislike cupping for a fasting person due to the hardship and weakness it causes. But he did not narrate this as a marfu’ (directly from the Prophet). And he said that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had cupping done on his blessed head due to a pain while he was in the state of ihram.
