Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبْجَرَ، عَنْ إِيَادِ بْنِ لَقِيطٍ، عَنْ أَبِي رِمْثَةَ، قَالَ انْطَلَقْتُ مَعَ أَبِي وَأَنَا غُلَامٌ، إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبِي إِنِّي رَجُلٌ طَبِيبٌ فَأَرِنِي هَذِهِ السِّلْعَةَ الَّتِي بِظَهْرِكَ قَالَ وَمَا تَصْنَعُ بِهَا قَالَ أَقْطَعُهَا قَالَ لَسْتَ بِطَبِيبٍ وَلَكِنَّكَ رَفِيقٌ طَبِيبُهَا الَّذِي وَضَعَهَا وَقَالَ غَيْرُهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَهَا.
English Translation
Abu Rimthah narrated: I went with my father when I was a young boy to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). My father said to him: "I am a physician, so show me this growth on your back." He said: "What would you do with it?" He said: "I would cut it off." He said: "You are not a physician, but rather you are a kind person. Its physician is the One who placed it there." (Another narrator said: "the One who created it.")
