حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ عَنْ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ حُنَيْنٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ
إِذَا وَقَعَ الذُّبَابُ فِي شَرَابِكُمْ فَلْيَغْمِسْهُ فِيهِ ثُمَّ لْيَطْرَحْهُ فَإِنَّ فِي أَحَدِ جَنَاحَيْهِ دَاءً وَفِي الآخَرِ شِفَاءً
