Allah, The Mighty and Majestic, and His Messenger ﷺhave explained what is permissible for the one who has assumed Ihraam to partake in, and what is prohibited to him. And all this have been transmitted to us by The Noble Companions (ras). In this hadeeth, ‘Abdullah ibn Buhaynah (ra) reports that the Prophet ﷺgot himself cupped while he was dressed in the garments for the consecrated state one enters for Hajj or ‘Umrah. The cupping (i.e., hijaamah) was done at the middle of his ﷺnoble head. Cupping is one of the medical methods used in extracting bad blood from the body for treatment. The narrator’s statement: “at Lahaa Jamal” refers to a place along the route to Makkah and is about seven miles away from al-Madeenah. This hadeeth highlights that the one in Ihraam is allowed to seek medical treatment from whatever disease or malady that may present itself in his body; with the hope that the permissible medicines and treatments will ward what is disliked or harmful from the body..
