Arabic text

5704 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الوَلِيدِ هِشَامُ بْنُ عَبْدِ المَلِكِ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ الغَسِيلِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ جَابِرًا، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِنْ كَانَ فِي شَيْءٍ مِنْ أَدْوِيَتِكُمْ شِفَاءٌ، فَفِي شَرْطَةِ مِحْجَمٍ، أَوْ لَذْعَةٍ بِنَارٍ، وَمَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَكْتَوِيَ»
