أَخْبَرَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ ابْنِ حَيَّانَ يَعْنِي يَزِيدَ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ قَالَ
سَحَرَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَجُلٌ مِنْ الْيَهُودِ فَاشْتَكَى لِذَلِكَ أَيَّامًا فَأَتَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ الْيَهُودِ سَحَرَكَ عَقَدَ لَكَ عُقَدًا فِي بِئْرِ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَأَرْسَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَاسْتَخْرَجَهَا فَجَاءَ بِهَا إِلَيْهِ فَحَلَّلَهَا فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ كَأَنَّمَا نَشِطَ مِنْ عِقَالٍ فَمَا ذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لِذَلِكَ الْيَهُودِيِّ وَلَا رَآهُ فِي وَجْهِهِ قَطُّ

✧ A man from the Jews bewitched the Prophet ﷺ, and he suffered from that for some days. Then Jibril came to him and said, 'A man from the Jews has bewitched you; he tied knots for you in such-and-such a well.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent someone, and they extracted it and brought it to him. He untied it, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up as if he had been released from a tether. He never mentioned that to that Jew nor did he ever show it in his face.
