Hadith 15

ds: ‘So his hand was cut, and he was cauterized from it, but he died’’. [21] (P. s. see note above)
(The book) ‘Tibb Al Aimma-asws – from Muhammad Bin Jafar Al Bursy, from Ahmad Bin Yahya Al Armany, from Muhammad Bin Sinan, from Al Mufazzal Bin Umar, ‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws said: ‘Jibraeel-as came to the Prophet-saww and said: ‘O Muhammad-saww! He-saww said: ‘Here I-saww am, O Jibraeel-as! ’
He-as said: ‘So and so Jew has bewitched you-saww and has made the sorcery to be in a well of the clan of so and so. Send to it, meaning to the well, the most trusted of the people with you-saww and their mightiest in your-saww eyes, and he-asws is an equal with your-saww self, until he-asws comes to you-saww with the sorcery’. And he-asws said: ‘The Prophet-saww sent Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws and said: ‘Go to the well of Zarwan, for therein is a sorcery Labeed Bin A’asim the Jew has bewitched me-saww with and come to me-saww with it! ’
Ali-asws said: ‘I-asws went regarding a need of Rasool-Allah-saww. I-asws descended, and there, the water of the well had become as if it was water of the Henna, from the sorcery. I-asws searched for it hastily until I-asws ended to the bottom of the well, and (but) I-asws was not successful with it. Those who were with me-asws said, ‘There is nothing in it, so climb up! ’ I-asws said: ‘No, by Allah-azwj! Neither have I-asws lied nor have I-asws been lied to, and my-asws certainty with him‑saww is not like your certainties with him-saww’ – meaning Rasool-Allah-saww. Then I-asws searched with a subtle search and extracted a packet. I-asws came to the Prophet‑saww. He-saww said: ‘Open it! ’ I-asws opened it, and there, in the packed was a piece of a palm leaf in a string. There were twenty-one (eleven) knots upon it, and Jibraeel-as had descended on that with the ‘The two refuge seekers (Surah Al-Falaq and Surah Al-Naas) unto the Prophet-saww. The Prophet-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! Recite them both upon the string! ’ Every time Amir Al-Momineen-asws went on to recite a Verse, a knot disentangled, until he-asws was free from it, and Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Removed from His-azwj Prophet-saww what he-saww had been bewitched with, and he-saww recovered’. And it is reported that Jibraeel-as and Mikaeel-as came to the Prophet-saww. One of them-as sate on his-saww right, and the other on his-saww left. Jibraeel-as said to Mikaeel-as: ‘What is the pain of the man-saww? ’ Mikaeel-as said: ‘He-saww is sick! ’ Jibraeel-as said: ‘And who sickened him-saww? ’ He-as said: ‘Labeed Bin A’asam the Jew’ – then he (the narrator) mentioned the Hadeeth up to its end’’.
