Hazrat Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: If there is any good in your remedies, or he said: If there is good in these remedies of yours, then it is in cupping, drinking honey, and cauterization with fire, if it suits the illness. But I do not like cauterization with fire.

Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) had cupping done and also paid the one who performed the cupping. (If cupping were unlawful, then he would neither have it done nor pay for it.)

Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) had cupping done, and he (peace be upon him) never wronged anyone regarding wages for work.

Hazrat Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Fever is due to the effect of the heat of Hell. Therefore, cool it with water.

When a woman suffering from fever was brought to Hazrat Asma bint Abi Bakr Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with her), she would supplicate for her and pour water into her collar. She used to say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us to cool fever with water.

Hazrat Rafi' bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: "Fever is from the heat of Hell, so cool it with water."
