وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ مُكْرَمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ عُبَادَةَ هُوَ ابْنُ الصَّامِتِ قَالَ:
كُنْتُ أَرْقِي فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ مِنْ وَعْكِ الْغِبِّ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ الْإِسْلَامُ ذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: « اعْرِضْهَا عَلَيَّ »، فَقَالَ ﷺ: « ارْقِ بِهَا ; لَيْسَ بِهَا بَأْسٌ »، فَوَاللهِ لَوْلَا ذَلِكَ مَا رَقَيْتُ بِهَا إِنْسَانًا أَبَدًا

✧ I used to perform ruqyah in the Jahiliyyah for the fever of gib (a type of fever). When Islam came, I mentioned that to the Messenger of God ﷺ, and he said: "Present it to me." He ﷺ then said: "Perform ruqyah with it; there is no harm in it." By God, were it not for that, I would never have performed ruqyah with it on any person ever.
