that his father said; "When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) mentioned what he mentioned about (the hanging of) the
Izar (waist sheet), Abu Bakr said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! My Izar slackens on one side (without my
intention)." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "You are not among those (who, out of pride) drag their Izars behind
them."

A man was mentioned before the Prophet (ﷺ) and another man praised him greatly The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"May Allah's Mercy be on you ! You have cut the neck of your friend." The Prophet (ﷺ) repeated this
sentence many times and said, "If it is indispensable for anyone of you to praise someone, then he
should say, 'I think that he is so-and-so," if he really thinks that he is such. Allah is the One Who will
take his accounts (as He knows his reality) and no-one can sanctify anybody before Allah." (Khalid
said, "Woe to you," instead of "Allah's Mercy be on you.")

The Prophet (ﷺ) continued for such-and-such period imagining that he has slept (had sexual relations)
with his wives, and in fact he did not. One day he said, to me, "O `Aisha! Allah has instructed me
regarding a matter about which I had asked Him. There came to me two men, one of them sat near my
feet and the other near my head. The one near my feet, asked the one near my head (pointing at me),
'What is wrong with this man? The latter replied, 'He is under the effect of magic.' The first one asked,
'Who had worked magic on him?' The other replied, 'Lubaid bin Asam.' The first one asked, 'What
material (did he use)?' The other replied, 'The skin of the pollen of a male date tree with a comb and
the hair stuck to it, kept under a stone in the well of Dharwan."' Then the Prophet (ﷺ) went to that well
and said, "This is the same well which was shown to me in the dream. The tops of its date-palm trees
look like the heads of the devils, and its water looks like the Henna infusion." Then the Prophet (ﷺ)
ordered that those things be taken out. I said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Won't you disclose (the magic
object)?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah has cured me and I hate to circulate the evil among the people."
`Aisha added, "(The magician) Lubaid bin Asam was a man from Bani Zuraiq, an ally of the Jews."
