´Abbad bin Mansur narrated from 'Ikrimah who said:` "Ibn 'Abbas had three boys who were cuppers. He would use the proceeds from two of them for himself and his family, and one of them would cup him and his family." He said: " Ibn 'Abbas said: 'The Prophet (S.A.W) said: 'How excellent is the slave who cups, letting the blood, relieving the back, and clearing the vision." And he said: "Indeed the best for you to cup on are the seventeenth, the nineteenth, and the twenty-first." And he said: "Indeed the best of what you treat is As-Sa'ut, Al-Ladud, cupping and laxatives." And indeed, The Messenger of Allah (S.A.W) was given medicine by Al-Abbas and his companions. So the The Messenger of Allah (S.A.W) said: "Who gave me this medicine?" All of them were silent, so he said that there shall not remain anyone in the house but he should be treated with Ladud except for his uncle Al-Abbas.'" An-Nadr said: "Al-Ladud is Al-Wajur."

Benefits and Issues: ➊ Our researcher, as well as other scholars, have declared the mentioned narration to be weak in its chain of transmission. However, after lengthy discussion, some scholars have deemed it authentic based on other supporting evidences. Taking into account the discussion of the scholars, it appears that neither this narration nor its other supporting evidences are so weak that the narration should be declared weak. According to our understanding, the mentioned narration, due to other supporting evidences, becomes actionable and a valid proof. And Allah knows best. For further details, see (Al-Mawsu‘ah al-Hadithiyyah, Musnad al-Imam Ahmad: 5/340, 341; al-Sahihah by al-Albani, no. 2263; and Sunan Ibn Majah, edited by Dr. Bashar ‘Awwad, no. 3477). Angels do not do anything of their own opinion or will without Allah’s command. Therefore, this remedy is not something prescribed by the angels, but rather it is prescribed by Allah, the Exalted.
➌ The repetition of a thing is for the purpose of emphasis.

´Ibn 'Abbas narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:` "Indeed the best of what you treat is As-Sa'ut, Al-Ladud, cupping and laxatives.' So when the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W) was suffering his companions treated him with Al-Ladud, and when they were finished he said: 'Treat them with Al-Ladud.' So all of them except Al-Abbas were treated with Al-Ladud."(Daif)
