It is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to instruct me to perform ruqyah (spiritual healing) for protection against the evil eye.

Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would order the one who cast the evil eye to perform ablution, and would order the person afflicted by the evil eye to bathe with that water.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The evil eye is real. If anything could precede destiny, it would be the evil eye. When you are asked to perform ablution (as a remedy for the evil eye), then perform ablution."

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you learn that a plague has broken out in a certain area, do not go towards it, and do not flee from it." And in another narration: "Through this affliction or disease, a group from the previous nations or the Children of Israel was punished, then it remained on the earth in some form; sometimes it would end and sometimes it would appear again. Now, if a person learns that this disease has come to a certain area, he should not go there, and whoever is already in that area should not leave it fleeing." This hadith is narrated from Sayyiduna Usamah bin Zaid, Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas, and Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman (may Allah be pleased with them) and others.

Narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The plague is martyrdom for my Ummah and regret and remorse for your enemies among the jinn. Its wound is like the gland of a camel, which appears on the armpit and the soft part of the belly. Whoever dies because of this disease is a martyr, and whoever remains steadfast (in the same area) is like one who stays stationed at the frontier in the way of Allah, and whoever flees is like one who flees from battle."

Umrah bint Qais ‘Adawiyyah says: I went to Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) and asked her about fleeing from the plague. She said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“Fleeing from the plague is like fleeing from the battlefield.”

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When the blood of any one of you becomes agitated (i.e., when blood pressure rises), he should get cupping done, because the agitation of blood can cause a person's death."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Among the things you use for treatment, if there is any benefit, then it is in cupping."

Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) came to visit a sick person who was wearing a head covering and said: "I will remain sitting here until you get cupped, because I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'If there is any good in your medicines, it is in cupping, or drinking honey, or cauterization, but I dislike cauterization.'"

Bukair reports that Asim bin Qatadah narrated to him that Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) went to visit a patient from the tribe of Muqna’ and said:“I will remain sitting here until you undergo cupping, because I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: ‘Indeed, there is healing in it.’”
