7-61 حدثنا أبي رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله قال، حدثني أحمد ابن الحسين بن سعيد، عن الحسين بن أسد البصري، عن الحسين بن سعيد، عم رواه عن خلف بن حماد، عن رجل، عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام أنه مر بقوم يحتجمون فقال:
ما كان عليكم لو أخرتموه إلى عشية الاحد فكان يكون أنزل للداء
7-61 (The compiler of the book narrated) that his father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Sa’ed ibn Abdullah quoted Ahmad ibn al-Hussein ibn Sa’id, on the authority of Al-Hussein ibn Asad al-Basry, on the authority of Al-Hussein ibn Sa’id, on the authority of someone who narrated on the authority of Khalaf ibn Himmad, on the authority of someone who quoted Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB),
“Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB) passed by a group of people who were having blood-letting done for them. He (MGB) told them ‘What would have happened if you had postponed it until Sunday night as that would be more effective in alleviating one’s pains.’”
