[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed hijama (cupping) and gave the cupper his wages. If it was forbidden, he would not have given it to him. He used to perform hijama on his head between the two ears and on the back between the shoulder blades. A servant of Banu Bayadah used to perform hijama on him, and he would be cupped every day, a mudd and a half. The Prophet ﷺ interceded for him with his family, so he was given a long time for payment.
احْتَجَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَعْطَى الْحَجَّامَ أَجْرَهُ وَلَوْ كَانَ حَرَامًا لَمْ يُعْطِهِ وَكَانَ يَحْتَجِمُ فِي الْأَخْدَعَيْنِ وَبَيْنَ الْكَتِفَيْنِ وَكَانَ يَحْجُمُهُ عَبْدٌ لِبَنِي بَيَاضَةَ وَكَانَ يُؤْخَذُ مِنْهُ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ مُدٌّ وَنِصْفٌفَشَفَعَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ فَجُعِلَ مُدًّا
