Hijama Hadiths


Numerous narrations are present in Hadith regarding Hijama as an effective approach to treating illnesses.


Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that Prophet Muhamad (PBUH) said “healing is to be found in three things: drinking honey, the knife of the cupper, and cauterization of fire” (reported by Al-Bukhari, 10/136)

Anas Ibn Maalik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said: “I did not pass by any group on the night when I was taken on a night journey (Isra), but they said to me, “O Muhammad, tell your Ummah to do cupping” (reported by Ibn Maajah).

Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (PBUH) said: “if there was something excellent to be used as a remedy then it is cupping (Hijama).” (Sunan Abu Dawud, Sunan Ibn Majah).

There are many other Hadiths related to Hijama, but the above-mentioned are enough to get an idea about its importance in Islam.


Best Time for Hijama According to Islam

According to Hadith narrations Hijama must be done on the 17th, 19th, and 21st of the Lunar month. You must avoid cupping on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. While Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays are recommended days for Hijama.

Hijama Procedure


You might be wondering How Hijama is performed? Is it painful? No, Hijama is a non-invasive procedure that involves the application of cups (glass or plastic) on specific points which correspond to specific illnesses. These cups create negative pressure. Due to this vacuum inside, the blood gathers due to negative pressure under the superficial skin. After the pooling of blood, the cupping experts remove the cups and make a small vertical incision over the skin where blood pools due to the vacuum effect of the cups. Cups are applied again to the same points. The blood starts to ooze out due to the vacuum through the incisions. After the blood seeps out the cups are removed, and the expert cleans the area.


The main mechanism by which Cupping works in treating illnesses is that the blood which comes out contains toxins. As cupping removes toxin-containing blood from circulation, it gives place to fresh and healthy blood to circulate. The blood which is pulled out takes with it all the disease-causing toxins. Ultimately, you will feel alleviation in the disease symptoms.
