Musnad Ahmad Hadith 24347

It is narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that a Jew from Banu Zuraiq, whose name was Labeed bin A'sam, cast magic upon the Prophet (ﷺ), as a result of which for six months the Prophet (ﷺ) would think that he had done a certain thing, although he had not done it. One day, the Prophet (ﷺ) prayed for a long time, then said, "Aisha! Whatever I asked Allah, He has informed me about it. Two men came to me; one sat by my head and the other by my feet. Then the one sitting by my head said to the one sitting by my feet, or vice versa, 'What is the ailment of this man?' The other replied, 'He has been bewitched.' He asked, 'Who has done the magic?' The other replied, 'Labeed bin A'sam.' He asked, 'In what things was the magic done?' The other replied, 'In a comb and the hair that falls from it, and in the husk of a male date palm.' He asked, 'Where are these things now?' The other replied, 'In the well named "Aruwan".' After seeing this dream, the Prophet (ﷺ) went to that well with some of his companions (may Allah be pleased with them), and after returning, he told Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), 'O Aisha! The water of that well looked as if it was the color of henna, and the trees near it looked like the heads of devils.' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah! Why did you not set it on fire?' The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'No, Allah has granted me well-being, and now I do not like to spread evil and discord among the people.' Thus, on the order of the Prophet (ﷺ), all those things were buried.
