3515. It was narrated that Jâbir said: "There was a family among the Ansâr, called Âl 'Amr bin Hazm, who used to recite Ruqyah for the scorpion sting, but the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ forbade Ruqyah. They came to him and said: 'O Messenger of Allâh! You have forbidden Ruqyah, but we recite Ruqyah against the scorpion's sting.' He said to them: 'Recite it to me.' So they recited it to him, and he said: 'There is nothing wrong with this, this is confirmed.” (Sahih)
3515 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي الْخَصِيبِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عِيسَى، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ أَهْلُ بَيْتٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، يُقَالُ لَهُمْ آلُ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ، يَرْقُونَ مِنَ الْحُمَةِ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَدْ نَهَى عَنِ الرُّقَى، فَأَتَوْهُ فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّكَ قَدْ نَهَيْتَ عَنِ الرُّقَى، وَإِنَّا نَرْقِي مِنَ الْحُمَةِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «اعْرِضُوا عَلَيَّ» فَعَرَضُوهَا عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: «لَا بَأْسَ بِهَذِهِ، هَذِهِ مَوَاثِيقُ»
