حَدَّثَنِي عُقْبَةُ بْنُ مُکْرَمٍ الْعَمِّيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَقُولُا رَخَّصَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِآلِ حَزْمٍ فِي رُقْيَةِ الْحَيَّةِ وَقَالَ لِأَسْمَائَ بِنْتِ عُمَيْسٍ مَا لِي أَرَی أَجْسَامَ بَنِي أَخِي ضَارِعَةً تُصِيبُهُمْ الْحَاجَةُ قَالَتْ لَا وَلَکِنْ الْعَيْنُ تُسْرِعُ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ ارْقِيهِمْ قَالَتْ فَعَرَضْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ ارْقِيهِمْ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 5726
Jabir b. 'Abdullah reported that Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) granted sanction to the family of Hazm for incantation (in mitigating the effect of the poison of) the snake, and, he said -to Asma' daughter of 'Umais: What is this that I see the children of my brother lean? Are they not fed properly? She said: No, but they fall under the influence of an evil eve. He said: Use incantation She recited (the words of incantation before him), whereupon he (by approving them) said: Yes, use this incantation for them.
