3883. It was narrated from Zainab, the wife of 'Abdullãh, that 'Abdulläh said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah say: "Ruqyah, amulets (Tama'im) and love-spells (At-Tiwalah) are Shirk." She said: "I said: 'Why do you say that? By Allah, I had a discharge in my eye, and I kept going to so-and- so, the Jew, who did Ruqyah for me, and when he did Ruqyah for me, it calmed down.' 'Abdullãh said: 'That was the work of the Shaitãn who was poking it with his hand, but when he did Ruqyah for it, it stopped. It would have been sufficient for you to say as the Messenger of Allah used to say: "Adhhibil-bãsa rabban-nasa rabban- nas4JI, antash-shaft, lã shifa 'a illa shifa'uka shifa'an la yughadiru suqma (Take away the pain, 0 Lord of mankind, and grant healing, for You are the Healer, and there is no healing but Your Healing, a healing that leaves no trace of sickness)." (Da'J)
