Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ سُحِرَ
رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم . وَسَاقَ أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ الْحَدِيثَ بِقِصَّتِهِ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ نُمَيْرٍ
وَقَالَ فِيهِ فَذَهَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِلَى الْبِئْرِ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا وَعَلَيْهَا نَخْلٌ .
وَقَالَتْ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَأَخْرِجْهُ . وَلَمْ يَقُلْ أَفَلاَ أَحْرَقْتَهُ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ " فَأَمَرْتُ بِهَا فَدُفِنَتْ
Translation
'A'isha reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was affected with a spell, the rest of the hadith is the same but with this variation of wording
" Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) went to the well and looked towards it and there were trees of date-palm near it. I ('A'isha) said: I asked Allah'& Messenger (ﷺ) to bring it out, and 1 did not say: Why did not you burn it?" And there is no mention of these words:" I commanded (to bury them and they buried."
