حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِکٍ قَالَ کُنَّا نَرْقِي فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ کَيْفَ تَرَی فِي ذَلِکَ فَقَالَ اعْرِضُوا عَلَيَّ رُقَاکُمْ لَا بَأْسَ بِالرُّقَی مَا لَمْ تَکُنْ شِرْکًا
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3885
Narrated Thabit ibn Qays ibn Shammas: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon Thabit ibn Qays. The version of Ahmad (ibn Salih) has: When he was ill He (the Prophet) said: Remove the harm, O Lord of men, from Thabit ibn Qays ibn Shammas. He then took some dust of Bathan, and put it in a bowel, and then mixed it with water and blew in it, and poured it on him. Abu Dawud said: Ibn al-Sarh said: Yusuf bin Muhammad is correct (and not Muhammad bin Yusuf)
