The Meaning of the Impurity of the Cupper’s Earnings
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Shaykh says: A brother asks in this question: I have a place specifically for cupping. I brought in specialists in this profession to work there. Does the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that “the cupper’s earnings are impure” apply to me and the owner of the place, or does it apply to those who perform the cupping, who are the workers?
Answer:
It applies to everyone. Here, “impure” means defective, meaning that it is defective and lowly earnings. It does not mean that it is forbidden; rather, it is lowly and defective earnings. Avoiding it and seeking sustenance from other sources is better and more complete. Yes.
