spitting (on the bite) and reciting Surat-al-Fatiha till
the patient was healed and started walking as if he had
not been sick. When the tribe people paid them their
wages they had agreed upon, some of them (the Prophet's
companions) said, "Distribute (the sheep)." But the one
who treated with the Ruqya said, "Do not do that till we
go to Allah's Apostle and mention to him what has
happened, and see what he will order us." So they came
to Allah's Apostle and mentioned the story to him and he
said, "How do you know that Surat-al-Fatiha is a Ruqya?
You have done the right thing. Divide (what you have
got) and assign for me a share with you."

The Prophet once came out to us
and said, "Some nations were displayed before me. A
prophet would pass in front of me with one man, and
another with two men, and another with a group of
people. and another with nobody with him. Then I saw a
great crowd covering the horizon and I wished that they
were my followers, but it was said to me, 'This is Moses
and his followers.' Then it was said to me, 'Look'' I
looked and saw a big gathering with a large number of
people covering the horizon. It was said, "Look this way
and that way.' So I saw a big crowd covering the
horizon. Then it was said to me, "These are your
followers, and among them there are 70,000 who will
enter Paradise without (being asked about their)
accounts. " Then the people dispersed and the Prophet
did not tell who those 70,000 were. So the companions of
the Prophet started talking about that and some of them
said, "As regards us, we were born in the era of
heathenism, but then we believed in Allah and His
Apostle . We think however, that these (70,000) are our
offspring." That talk reached the Prophet who said,
"These (70,000) are the people who do not draw an evil
omen from (birds) and do not get treated by branding
themselves and do not treat with Ruqya, but put their
trust (only) in their Lord." then 'Ukasha bin Muhsin got
up and said, "O Allah's Apostle! Am I one of those
(70,000)?" The Prophet said, "Yes." Then another person
got up and said, "Am I one of them?" The Prophet said, "
'Ukasha has anticipated you."
