Combining the hadith of "The one who performs cupping and the one who receives it break their fast" with the hadith of the Prophet's cupping

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A group of questions ask about the hadith of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his companions): "The one who performs cupping and the one who receives it break their fast." How is this reconciled with the fact that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) received cupping while fasting?

Answer:
It is not established that he received cupping while fasting. Imam Ahmad says that this wording is a mistake, and the correct version is that he received cupping while in the state of ihram. The narrator assumed and said "while fasting," but this is not established. Yes.
