864 — “Indeed, there is healing in it”—meaning cupping.

Al-Bukhari (10/124), Muslim (7/21), al-Hakim (4/208 and 4/409), and Ahmad (3/335) narrated it through the route of ʿAmr ibn al-Harith: Bukayr narrated to him that ʿAsim ibn ʿUmar ibn Qatadah narrated to him that Jabir ibn ʿAbd Allah visited al-Muqannaʿ and said, “I will not leave until you undergo cupping, for I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say…” and he mentioned it.
