"عَنْ على قَالَ: بَيْنَا رسولُ الله ﷺ ذاتَ ليلة يُصَلِّى فَوضَع يَدهُ على الأرْضِ فَلَدغَتْهُ عَقْربٌ فَتَنَاولَهَا رسول الله ﷺ بِنَعْلِهِ فَقَتَلهَا، فَلَمَّا انصرفَ قال: لَعَنَ الله العَقْربَ مَا تَدَعُ مُصَليًا ولا غَيْرهُ، ولَا نَبِيّا ولا غيرهُ إلا لَدَغَتْهم، ثم دَعَا بملح وَماءٍ فَجَعَلَهُ في إناء ثَم جَعَل يَصُبُّهُ على أصْبعِهِ حَيثُ لَدغَتهُ ويمْسَحُهَا ويعوِّذُهَا بالمُعَوذتَيْن، وفى رواية: وَيقَرأ قُل هوَ الله أحدٌ والمعُوذَتَيْنِ".

"From 'Ali, who said: While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was praying one night, he placed his hand on the ground, and a scorpion stung him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took it with his sandal and killed it. When he finished, he said: May Allah curse the scorpion; it leaves neither one who prays nor anyone else, and neither a prophet nor anyone else, without stinging them. Then he called for salt and water, put it in a vessel, and began pouring it on his finger where it had been stung, rubbing it and seeking refuge for it with the two Mu'awwidhatayn. In another narration: and he recited Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad and the two Mu'awwidhatayn."
