حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم: هَلْ أَخَذَتْكَ أُمُّ مِلْدَمٍ؟ قَالَ: وَمَا أُمُّ مِلْدَمٍ؟ قَالَ: حَرٌّ بَيْنَ الْجِلْدِ وَاللَّحْمِ، قَالَ: لاَ، قَالَ: فَهَلْ صُدِعْتَ؟ قَالَ: وَمَا الصُّدَاعُ؟ قَالَ: رِيحٌ تَعْتَرِضُ فِي الرَّأْسِ، تَضْرِبُ الْعُرُوقَ، قَالَ: لاَ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا قَامَ قَالَ: مَنْ سَرَّهُ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ أَيْ: فَلْيَنْظُرْهُ.

Ahmad ibn Yunus related to us: Abu Bakr related to us, from Muhammad ibn ‘Amr, from Abu Salamah, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: A Bedouin came, and the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, asked, “Has Umm Mildam afflicted you?” He asked, “What is Umm Mildam?” He said, “A heat between the skin and the flesh.” The man said, “No.” He asked, “Have you had a headache?” He asked, “What is a headache?” He said, “A wind that crosses the head and strikes the veins.” The man said, “No.” When he got up to leave, the Prophet said, “Whoever would be pleased to look at a man from among the people of the Fire—let him look at him.”
