Continuation of the Musnad of Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (RA)
تابع مسند عبد الله بن مسعود رضي الله عنه
Hadith 152:140
Al-A’mash narrated to us, from ‘Amr ibn Murrah, from Yahya ibn al-Jazzar, from the nephew of Zaynab, from Zaynab, the wife of ‘Abdullah, from ‘Abdullah, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: "Indeed, incantations (ruqyah), amulets (tama'im), and love charms (tiwalah) are shirk (polytheism)." She said: I said, "Why do you say this? My eye was discharging, and I used to go to a certain Jew who would perform incantations upon it. When he performed incantations upon it, it would calm down." He said: "That was only the work of the devil; he was poking it with his hand. When he performed incantations upon it, he would desist from it. It would have been sufficient for you to say as the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to say: 'Remove the harm, O Lord of the people, and heal, for You are the Healer. There is no healing but Your healing, a healing that leaves behind no ailment.'"
وحدثنا الأعمش عن عمرو بن مرة عن يحيى بن الجزار عن بن أخت زينب عن زينب امرأة عبد الله عن عبد الله قال سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول * إن الرقى والتمائم والتولة شرك قالت فقلت لم تقول هذا وقد كانت عيني تقذف وكنت أختلف إلى فلان اليهودي فيرقيها كان إذا رقاها سكنت قال إنما ذاك عمل الشيطان كان ينخسها بيده فإذا رقيتها كف عنها إنما كان يكفيك أن تقولي كما قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أذهب البأس رب الناس واشف وأنت الشافي شفاء لا يغادر سقما
