Is there any incantator amongst you, at the chief of the tribe has bgen stung by a scorpion? A person amongst us said: 'Yes. So he came to him and he practised incan- tation with the help of Sura al-Fatiha and the person became all right. He was given a flock of sheep (as recompense), but he refused to accept that, saying: I shall make a mention of it to Allah's Apostle ﷺ, and if he approves of it. then I shall accept it. So we came to Allah's Apostle ﷺ and made a mention of that to him and he (that person) said: Messenger of Allah by Allah, I did not practice incantation but with the help of Sura al-Fatiha of the Holy Book. He (the Holy Prophet) smiled and said: How did you come to know that it can be used (as incactation)? - and then said: Take out of that and allocate a share for me along with your share.

أَنَّ نَاسًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كَانُوا فِي سَفَرٍ فَمَرُّوا بِحَيٍّ مِنْ أَحْيَاءِ الْعَرَبِ فَاسْتَضَافُوهُمْ فَأَبَوْا أَنْ يُضَيِّفُوهُمْ فَعَرَضَ لِإِنْسَانٍ مِنْهُمْ فِي عَقْلِهِ أَوْ لُدِغَ قَالَ فَقَالُوا لِأَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ هَلْ فِيكُمْ مِنْ رَاقٍ؟ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ نَعَمْ فَأَتَى صَاحِبَهُمْ فَرَقَاهُ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ فَبَرَأَ فَأُعْطِيَ قَطِيعًا مِنْ غَنَمٍ فَأَبَى أَنْ يَقْبَلَ حَتَّى أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ مَا رَقَيْتُهُ إِلَّا بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ قَالَ فَضَحِكَ وَقَالَ مَا يُدْرِيكَ أَنَّهَا رُقْيَةٌ؟ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ خُذُوا وَاضْرِبُوا لِي بِسَهْمٍ مَعَكُمْ

[Machine] A group of the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ were on a journey and they passed by a tribe of the Arabs. They asked to be hosted by them, but they refused to host them. One of the men from the tribe was either bitten or stung by something, so they asked the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ if any of them knew how to perform Rukyah (healing through recitation of Qur'an and supplications). One of them said yes, and he came to their companion, recited Surah Al-Fatiha, and the man was cured. As a gratitude, the people of the tribe offered them a flock of sheep, but the companion refused to accept it until he consulted the Prophet ﷺ. He narrated the incident to the Prophet ﷺ, who laughed and said, "How did you know that it (Surah Al-Fatiha) is Rukyah?" Then the Prophet ﷺ said, "Take the flock of sheep and give me a share with you."
