أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ الطَّوِيلُ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ: أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ "حَجَمَهُ أَبُو طَيْبَةَ وَأَمَرَ لَهُ بِصَاعَيْنِ مِنْ طَعَامٍ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that Abu Taybah (Nafi’ or Maisarah) performed cupping for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he ordered that he be given two sa’ of grain as payment.
