حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَتْنِي جَدَّتِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ سَهْلَ بْنَ حُنَيفٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ مَرَرْنَا بِسَيْلٍ فَدَخَلْتُ فَاغْتَسَلْتُ فِيهِ فَخَرَجْتُ مَحْمُومًا فَنُمِيَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مُرُوا أَبَا ثَابِتٍ يَتَعَوَّذُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ فَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ يَا سَيِّدِي، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَالرُّقَى صَالِحَةٌ ؟، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ لَا رُقْيَةَ إِلَّا فِي نَفْسٍ أَوْ حُمَةٍ أَوْ لَدْغَةٍ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ الْحُمَةُ مِنَ الْحَيَّاتِ وَمَا يَلْسَعُ.

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 صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم was informed about it. He said: Ask Abu Thabit 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.
