The Shaykh : A woman came to him, and I think she had a thread tied around her hand, so he asked her. He said her answer was that it was in her eye, yes. He ordered her to cut the thread, so she cut the thread. She returned to complain to Ibn Mas'ud that the pain had returned to her. He said to her, and here is the point:
That this is a prick from Shaytan أن هذا وخز من الشيطان
You, when it comes to you and pricks you, so that you resort to this means of shirk (associating partners with Allah). The point of this story is: this urination, we must look at whether there is a type of contradiction with the Shari'ah (Islamic sacred law) or not? If there is no contradiction with the Shari'ah, we say that since, first, the experience has been repeated with benefit for this type of treatment for one who is afflicted with the evil eye, and there is no contradiction with the Shari'ah in that, do you imagine the issue is free of contradiction with the Shari'ah?

The questioner : By Allah, I, my Shaykh, after reflection and considering what Ibn al-Qayyim mentioned in Prophetic Medicine regarding the benefit or wisdom of washing the private parts, I saw that there is a connection between the two issues, especially since some scholars tried this and mentioned it in the books, and perhaps I...

The Shaykh : What is this?

The questioner : This method

The Shaykh : of the iron

The questioner : Yes, and perhaps I will mention that al-Hafiz mentioned it in al-Fath.
Al-Halabi : Urinating on the iron.

The questioner : Yes, in the book of Medicine, and he also mentioned...

The Shaykh : Okay, you mention the private parts, what is the connection between the private parts and urinating on heated iron?

The questioner : This is the place where impurities touch and the place of the waistband, and also regarding this matter, my Shaykh.
The phone rang.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings.

The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings and His forgiveness

The questioner : Praise be to Allah for your safety, my master.

The Shaykh : May Allah keep you safe, may He bless you.
