Arabic hadith text

وَعَن أبي سعيد الْخُدْرِيّ أَن جِبْرِيلَ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَشْتَكَيْتَ؟ فَقَالَ: «نَعَمْ» . قَالَ: بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَرْقِيكَ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ يُؤْذِيكَ مِنْ شرك كُلِّ نَفْسٍ أَوْ عَيْنِ حَاسِدٍ اللَّهُ يَشْفِيكَ بِسم الله أرقيك. رَوَاهُ مُسلم

Translation

Abu Said al-Khudri said: Gabriel came to the Prophet and said: Muhammad, are you suffering? He replied: Yes. Gabriel said: In the name of God, I recite healing over you against everything that harms you, from the evil of every soul or envious eye. May God heal you. In the name of God, I recite healing over you.

Muslim transmitted it.

Translation notes
  • The verb أَرْقِيكَ refers to reciting or invoking a healing charm; the translation renders it as reciting healing over you without adding a protective action absent from the wording.
