Volume 4, Book 54, Number 490:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
Magic was worked on the Prophet so that he began to fancy that he was doing a thing which he
was not actually doing. One day he invoked (Allah) for a long period and then said, “I feel that Allah
has inspired me as how to cure myself. Two persons came to me (in my dream) and sat, one by my
head and the other by my feet. One of them asked the other, “What is the ailment of this man?” The
other replied, ‘He has been bewitched” The first asked, ‘Who has bewitched him?’ The other replied,
‘Lubaid bin Al-A’sam.’ The first one asked, ‘What material has he used?’ The other replied, ‘A comb,
the hair gathered on it, and the outer skin of the pollen of the male date-palm.’ The first asked,
‘Where is that?’ The other replied, ‘It is in the well of Dharwan.’ ” So, the Prophet went out towards
the well and then returned and said to me on his return, “Its date-palms (the date-palms near the
well) are like the heads of the devils.” I asked, “Did you take out those things with which the magic
was worked?” He said, “No, for I have been cured by Allah and I am afraid that this action may
spread evil amongst the people.” Later on the well was filled up with earth.

I stuffed for the Prophet a pillow decorated with pictures (of animals) which looked like a Nam –
ruqa (i.e. a small cushion). He came and stood among the people with excitement apparent on his
face. I said, “O Allah’s Apostle! What is wrong?” He said, “What is this pillow?” I said, “I have prepared
this pillow for you, so that you may recline on it.” He said, “Don’t you know that angels do not enter a
house wherein there are pictures; and whoever makes a picture will be punished on the Day of Re –
surrection and will be asked to give life to (what he has created)?”

Narrated ‘Aisha:
That she asked the Prophet , ‘Have you encountered a day harder than the day of the battle) of
Uhud?” The Prophet replied, “Your tribes have troubled me a lot, and the worse trouble was the
trouble on the day of ‘Aqaba when I presented myself to Ibn ‘Abd-Yalail bin ‘Abd-Kulal and he did
not respond to my demand. So I departed, overwhelmed with excessive sorrow, and proceeded on,
and could not relax till I found myself at Qarnath-Tha-alib where I lifted my head towards the sky
to see a cloud shading me unexpectedly. I looked up and saw Gabriel in it. He called me saying, ‘Al –
lah has heard your people’s saying to you, and what they have replied back to you, Allah has sent the
Angel of the Mountains to you so that you may order him to do whatever you wish to these people.’
The Angel of the Mountains called and greeted me, and then said, “O Muhammad! Order what you
wish. If you like, I will let Al-Akh-Shabain (i.e. two mountains) fall on them.” The Prophet said, “No
but I hope that Allah will let them beget children who will worship Allah Alone, and will worship
None besides Him.”
