Cupping: A Proven Prophetic Medicine

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
For it is a Prophetic medicine; the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed cupping.

Answer:
And it is a proven medicine if it is carried out according to its principles and the correct method known to the specialists; it is a good treatment. Indeed, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, or is there a problem with us? The cure is in three things, or if the cure is in anything, it is in three: a cut with a razor, a drink of honey, and cauterization with fire, and I dislike fire. It is possible to do it. Or as he (peace and blessings be upon him) said, he thus made cupping part of the correct, proven medical treatment.
