Amr ibn Ali Abu Hafs al-Sayrafi narrated to us; Abu Dawud narrated to us. (A second chain:) Muhammad ibn Abadah al-Wasiti narrated to us; Yazid ibn Harun narrated to us. Both said: Warqa narrated to us, from Abd al-Ala, from Abu Jamila, from Ali, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) underwent cupping and instructed me, so I paid the cupper his fee.

قَالَ احْتَجَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ وَأَمَرَنِي فَأَعْطَيْتُ الْحَجَّامَ أَجْرَهُ .
The Prophet instructed Ali, who then paid the cupper; the wording does not specify the exact form of the instruction.
Does “instructed me, so I paid” preserve the sequence without adding detail?
