4510. It was narrated from Ibn Shihāb, he said: "Jābir bin 'Abdullāh would narrate that a Jewish woman from Khaibar poisoned a roasted sheep, then she brought it to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ took the leg and ate, along with some of his Companions, then the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to them: 'Lift up your hands (meaning, stop eating).' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ sent for the Jewish woman, and said to her: 'Did you poison this sheep?' The Jewish woman said: 'Who told you?' He said: 'This, which is in my hand, told me, the leg.' She said: 'Yes.' He said: 'What did you intend by that?' She said: 'I said: "If he is a Prophet, it will not harm him, and if he is not a Prophet, we will be rid of him."'" So the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ pardoned her and he did not punish her. But some of his Companions who had eaten from that sheep died. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was treated with cupping on the upper part of his back because of what he had eaten of that sheep. He was treated by Abū Hind, who was the freed slave of Banū Bayādah, who were among the Anṣār, he used a horn and a knife (for the cupping)."
