Īnas narrated that the Prophet (PBUH) used to have Hijama done on the veins on the side of the neck and the upper back. Waki’ said, “Meaning the Messenger (PBUH) was cupped on (his foot) for bruising.”.

Jaabir ibn Abdullah y reported that the Messenger (PBUH) fell from his horse onto the trunk of a palm tree and dislocated his foot. Ibn al-Qaiyum (may Allah have mercy on him) mentions that the Messenger (PBUH) was cupped on his head when he was afflicted with magic and that it is from the best of cures for this if performed correctly. Hijama - Cupping done on the Prophet (PBUH)Īnas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (SAWS) was treated with cupping (hijama) three times on the two veins at the side of the neck and the base of the neck. The Prophet (PBUH) said,” Jibrail (AS) repeatedly emphasized upon me to resort to cupping to the extent that I feared that cupping will be made compulsory.” In the narration reported by Abdullah ibn Mas’ud (may Allaah be pleased with him) the angels said, “Oh Muhammad, order your Ummah (nation) with cupping (hijama).”. Shab-e-Meraj - The Night of Power(Angels Recommended Hijama - Cupping)Ībdullah ibn Abbas (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (SAWS) said, “I did not pass by an angel from the angels on the night journey except that they all said to me: Upon you is cupping (hijama), O Muhammad.”. Ību Hurairah(r.a) reported that the Messenger (PBUH) said, “Whoever performs cupping (hijama) on the 17 th, 19 th or 21 st day (of the Islamic, lunar month) then it is a cure for every disease.”. Jaabir ibn Abdullah y reported that the Messenger (PBUH) said, “Indeed in cupping (hijama) there is a cure.”. The Prophet (PBUH) also said: “If there is anything good in the medicines with which you treat yourselves, it is in the incision of the Hijama therapist, or a drink of honey or cauterization with fire, but I do not like to be cauterized.”

“The best treatment is cupping, it removes blood, lightens the back and sharpen the eyesight”. The Prophet (PBUH) explained that Hijama is one of the best medicines: “The best medicine with which you treat yourselves is Hijama, or it is one of the best of your medicines,” or “The best treatment you can use is Hijama.” “If there is something excellent to be used as a remedy, then it is Hijama Cupping”.
