حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم احْتَجَمَ وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْقَدَمِ مِنْ وَجَعٍ كَانَ بِهِ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ سَمِعْتُ أَحْمَدَ قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ أَرْسَلَهُ يَعْنِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ .
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had himself cupped on the surface of his foot because of a pain in it while he was in the sacred state (wearing ihram).
Abu Dawud said: I heard Ahmad say: “Ibn Abi ‘Arubah narrated it in Mursal form”. Meaning from Qatadah.
