‘Umrah narrates that Sayyidah ‘A’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) became ill and her illness prolonged. A man came to Madinah Munawwarah who practiced medicine and wisdom. The nephews of Sayyidah ‘A’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) went to this physician and inquired about the ailment of Sayyidah ‘A’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her). He said: By Allah! From what you are describing, it appears that this woman has been afflicted by magic, and her slave-girl has performed magic on her. When the slave-girl was questioned, she said: Yes! I did perform magic. I wanted you to die quickly so that I would become free. In fact, that slave-girl was a mudabbirah (a slave promised freedom after the master’s death). Sayyidah ‘A’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: Sell her to the person who is the strictest in Arabia regarding slave-girls, and buy another slave-girl like her with her price.
