Some hot liquid spilled from a pot onto my hand, so my mother took me to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was in a certain place. He spoke some words, among them, "Remove the harm, Lord of mankind." I think he also said, "Heal, for You are the Healer." He would lightly spit as he spoke.
انصبت على يدي من قدر، فذهبت بي أمي إلى رسول الله ﷺ وهو في مكان، قال: فقال كلاما فيه: أذهب الباس رب الناس وأحسبه قال: اشف أنت الشافي قال: كان يتفل.
Imam Ahmad narrated it (15452) from Yahya bin Saeed, from Shuba, from Simak, who said, Muhammad bin Hatib said, and then he related it. Tabarani also narrated it through this route in Al-Kabir (19/536), and Ibn Hibban graded it sahih (2976). He narrated it through the route of Shuba with the same wording, and it contains, "So we came to him while he was in the courtyard, and I recall clearly that he said, 'Take away the harm, Lord of mankind,' and I am fairly confident he also said, 'You are the Healer, there is no healer but You.'" Its isnad is hasan because of Simak, who is Ibn Harb, and Shuba's hearing from him was from an early period.Imam Ahmad also narrated it (18276) through another route, from Israil, from Simak, from Muhammad bin Hatib, who said, "I reached for a pot belonging to my mother, and my hand was burned, so my mother took me to the Prophet ﷺ, and he began wiping my hand, but I do not know what he was saying, since I was too young at the time. So I asked my mother, and she said, he was saying, 'Take away the harm, Lord of mankind, and heal, You are the Healer, there is no healing except Your healing.'"As for what appears in Ahmad's narration (18277), "So I asked my mother during the caliphate of Uthman, who was that man?, and she said, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ," this is daif because of Sharik, who is Ibn Abdullah Nakhai.Muhammad bin Hatib is al-Jumahi al-Qurashi. It is said that he was born in the land of Abyssinia, and his parents emigrated there, and his father died there, so his mother brought him to Madinah. It is also reported that he was the first person to be named Muhammad in Islam.Imam Ahmad narrated (18278) from Muawiya bin Amr, who said, Abu Ishaq told us, from Abu Malik Ashjai, who said, "I was sitting with Muhammad bin Hatib, and he said, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I have indeed seen a land full of palm trees, so go out.' So Hatib and Jafar went out by sea before reaching the Negus." He said, "And I was born on that ship." Tabarani also narrated it in Al-Kabir (19/541) through the route of Muawiya bin Amr, with the same wording. Haythami said in Al-Majmaa (6/27), "Ahmad and Tabarani narrated it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih."As for what is reported from Muhammad bin Hatib, from his mother Umm Jamil bint al-Mujallal, who said, "I brought you from the land of Abyssinia, and when we were a night or two away from Madinah, I cooked some food for you, but the firewood ran out, so I went out to fetch more. Meanwhile I reached for the pot, and it tipped over onto your arm. So I brought you to the Prophet ﷺ and said, 'By my father and mother, O Messenger of Allah! This is Muhammad bin Hatib.' He spat into your mouth, wiped your head, prayed for you, and began spitting on your hands, saying, 'Take away the harm, Lord of mankind, and heal, You are the Healer, there is no healing except Your healing, a healing that leaves no illness behind.'" She said, "And I did not leave his presence with you before your hand had healed." This is daif.Imam Ahmad narrated it (15453) from Ibrahim bin Abu Abbas and Yunus bin Muhammad, who both said, Abdul-Rahman bin Uthman told us, Ibrahim bin Abbas said in his hadith, Ibn Ibrahim bin Muhammad bin Hatib said, my father told me, from his grandfather Muhammad bin Hatib, from his mother, and then he related it. Ibn Hibban graded it sahih (2977), and Hakim narrated it (4/62-63). Haythami mentioned it in Al-Majmaa (5/112-113) and said, "Ahmad and Tabarani narrated it in Al-Kabir (24/363), and it contains Abdul-Rahman bin Uthman al-Hatibi, whom Abu Hatim declared daif."I say, Abdul-Rahman bin Uthman is Ibn Ibrahim bin Muhammad bin Hatib al-Qurashi. Abu Hatim said, "What he attributes as isnad astonishes me." Dhahabi mentioned in Al-Mizan that Abu Hatim declared him daif. This is likewise found in Al-Tajil (638). His father, Uthman bin Ibrahim, is also among the narrators of Al-Tajil. Abu Hatim said, "An elder whose hadith is written down." The rest of his statement is, "His son narrated munkar hadiths from him." This is likewise found in Al-Tajil.Likewise, what is reported from Ali bin Abu Talib as a marfu narration, "O Allah, take away the harm, Lord of mankind, and heal, for You are the Healer, there is no healing except Your healing, a healing that leaves no illness behind," is not sahih. Tirmidhi narrated it (3565) from Sufyan bin Waki, who said, Yahya bin Adam told us, from Israil, from Abu Ishaq, from Harith, from Ali, who said, "When the Prophet ﷺ visited a sick person, he would say," and then he related it. Tirmidhi said, "Hasan."I say, it is not hasan, rather it is daif because of Harith, who is Ibn Abdullah al-Awar al-Hamdani, who is severely daif, and some have even accused him of lying. Tabarani also narrated it through this same route in Al-Duaa (1109), as did Ibn Abu Dunya in Al-Marad wal-Kaffarat (52/190).
