[Machine] That he had taken off a woollen cloak from him, so I looked at him and I was impressed by his appearance, so I affected him with an evil eye. He was seized with a fit of sneezing, so I called him but he did not respond to me, so I went to the Prophet ﷺ and told him about it. He said, "Come with me." So he raised his garment from his ankles until he dipped them in water, so it was as if I was looking at the clarity of the Prophet's ankles. He struck his chest and said, "In the name of Allah, O Allah, remove its heat, coldness, and wetness, by the permission of Allah." So he got up and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If any one of you sees something in himself or his wealth or his brother that impresses him, let him seek blessings, for verily the evil eye is true."  

أَنْ قَدْ فَعَلَ نَزَعَ جُبَّةَ صُوفٍ عَلَيْهِ فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَأَعْجَبَنِي خَلْقُهُ فَأَصَبْتُهُ بِعَيْنٍ فَأَخَذَتْهُ قَعْقَعَةٌ فَدَعَوْتُهُ فَلَمْ يُجِبْنِي فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ «قُومُوا بِنَا» فَرَفَعَ عَنْ سَاقَيْهِ حَتَّى خَاضَ إِلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ فَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى وَضَحِ سَاقَيِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَضَرَبَ صَدْرَهُ وَقَالَ «بِاسْمِ اللهِ اللهُمَّ أَذْهِبْ حَرَّهَا وَبَرْدَهَا وَوَصَبَهَا قُمْ بِإِذْنِ اللهِ» فَقَامَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِذَا رَأَى أَحَدُكُمْ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ أَوْ مَالِهِ أَوْ أَخِيهِ شَيْئًا يُعْجِبُهُ فَلْيَدْعُ بِالْبَرَكَةِ فَإِنَّ الْعَيْنَ حَقٌّ»  

I passed by a river. I entered it and took a bath in it. When I came out, I had fever. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was informed about it. He said: Ask AbuThabit to seek refuge in Allah from that I asked: O my Lord, will the spell be useful? He replied: No, the spell is to be used except for the evil eye or a snake bite or a scorpion sting. Abu Dawud said: Humah means the biting of snakes and sting of the poisonous insects. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3888)  

سَمِعْتُ سَهْلَ بْنَ حُنَيْفٍ يَقُولُ مَرَرْنَا بِسَيْلٍ فَاغْتَسَلْتُ فِيهِ فَخَرَجْتُ مَحْمُولًا مِنْهُ مَحْمُومًا فَنَمَى ذَلِكَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «مُرُوا أَبَا ثَابِتٍ يَتَعَوَّذُ» قُلْتُ يَا سَيِّدِي وَالرُّقَى صَالِحَةٌ؟ قَالَ «لَا رُقْيَةَ إِلَّا فِي نَفْسٍ أَوْ حُمَةٍ أَوْ لَدْغَةٍ»
