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”””””"
