حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ فَرْقَدٍ السَّبَخِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً جَاءَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِابْنٍ لَهَا فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ ابْنِي هَذَا بِهِ جُنُونٌ يَأْخُذُهُ عِنْدَ غَدَائِنَا وَعَشَائِنَا فَيَخْبُثُ عَلَيْنَا فَمَسَحَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَدْرَهُ وَدَعَا فَثَعَّ ثَعَّةً يَعْنِي سَعَلَ فَخَرَجَ مِنْ جَوْفِهِ مِثْلُ الْجَرْوِ الْأَسْوَدِ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 2418
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (RA) that a woman brought a son of hers to the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) and said: This son of mine is possessed; it affects him at our lunch and dinner and spoils our meals. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) wiped his chest and prayed for him, and he coughed, then something like a little black dog came out of his mouth.
