Musnad Ahmad 15978

Translation

✧ We passed by a stream, so I entered and bathed in it, and came out with a fever. That was reported to the Messenger of God ﷺ, and he said: Tell Abū Thābit to seek refuge. I said: O my master, are ruqyas sound? He said: No ruqya except for the evil eye, or a sting, or a bite.
