Jami at-Tirmidhi 2063 (Book 28, Hadith 28) #27696
The Power of Reciting Al-Hamda [Lillah]

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) sent a group of people on a military expedition and they were not entertained by the people they camped with. When their leader was stung by a scorpion, they asked if anyone among them could treat it with Ruqyah and the Prophet's companion offered to do so in exchange for sheep. After he recited Al-Hamda [Lillah] seven times, the leader became better and the sheep were given to them as payment for the Ruqyah treatment.

"Abu Sa'eed narrated: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) dispatched us on a military expedition. We camped with some people and asked them to entertain us but they did not entertain us. Their leader was stung so they came to us saying: 'Is there anyone among you who can treat a scorpion sting with Ruqyah?' I said: 'Yes I can. But I will not do any Ruqyah until you give us some sheep'. They said: 'Then we shall give you thirty sheep'. We accepted that,and I recited Al-Hamda Lillah seven times. He became better and we took the sheep". He said: "We became concerned about that being permissible and said: 'Do not be hasty until we reach the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W)". He said: "When we arrived with him I mentioned what I did to him. He(S.A.W)said: 'How did you know that it was a Ruqyah? Take the sheep, and assign me a share among you'."
