حَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ صَخْرٍ الدَّارِمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَبَّانُ بْنُ هِلاَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ احْتَجَمَ وَأَعْطَى الْحَجَّامَ أَجْرَهُ وَاسْتَعَطَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's practice of cupping. Cupping is a traditional medical practice that involves using heated cups to create suction on the skin in order to draw out toxins and improve circulation. In this hadith, we learn that not only did the Prophet Muhammad get himself cupped but he also paid the person who performed it for their services. This teaches us that it is important to be generous with those who provide us with services and to show appreciation for their work. It also shows us that even though traditional medicine may not be as popular today as modern medicine, it still has its place in our lives and can be beneficial if used correctly.
