Some people asked Allah’s Apostle about the fore-tellers He said. ‘ They are nothing” They said, ‘O
Allah’s Apostle! Sometimes they tell us of a thing which turns out to be true.” Allah’s Apostle said, “A

Narrated ‘Aisha:
A man called Labid bin al-A’sam from the tribe of Bani Zaraiq worked magic on Allah’s Apostle till
Allah’s Apostle started imagining that he had done a thing that he had not really done. One day or
one night he was with us, he invoked Allah and invoked for a long period, and then said, “O ‘Aisha!
Do you know that Allah has instructed me concerning the matter I have asked him about? Two men
came to me and one of them sat near my head and the other near my feet. One of them said to his
companion, “What is the disease of this man?” The other replied, “He is under the effect of magic.’
The first one asked, ‘Who has worked the magic on him?’ The other replied, “Labid bin Al-A’sam.’ The
first one asked, ‘What material did he use?’ The other replied, ‘A comb and the hairs stuck to it and
the skin of pollen of a male date palm.’ The first one asked, ‘Where is that?’ The other replied, ‘(That
is) in the well of Dharwan;’ ” So Allah’s Apostle along with some of his companions went there and
came back saying, “O ‘Aisha, the color of its water is like the infusion of Henna leaves. The tops of the
date-palm trees near it are like the heads of the devils.” I asked. “O Allah’s Apostle? Why did you not
show it (to the people)?” He said, “Since Allah cured me, I disliked to let evil spread among the
people.” Then he ordered that the well be filled up with earth.
