Sahih Muslim: Book 39, Hadith 73

‘A’isha reported that when any person fell ill with a disease or he had any ailment or he had any injury, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) placed his forefinger upon the ground and then lifted it by reciting the name of Allah. (and said): The dust of our ground with the saliva of any one of us would serve as a means whereby our illness would be cured with the sanction of Allah. This hadith has been transmitted on the authority of Ibn Abu Shaiba and Zubair with a slight variation of wording.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، – وَاللَّفْظُ لاِبْنِ أَبِي
عُمَرَ – قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ
صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ إِذَا اشْتَكَى الإِنْسَانُ الشَّىْءَ مِنْهُ أَوْ كَانَتْ بِهِ قَرْحَةٌ أَوْ جَرْحٌ قَالَ
النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِإِصْبَعِهِ هَكَذَا وَوَضَعَ سُفْيَانُ سَبَّابَتَهُ بِالأَرْضِ ثُمَّ رَفَعَهَا ‏”‏
بِاسْمِ اللَّهِ تُرْبَةُ أَرْضِنَا بِرِيقَةِ بَعْضِنَا لِيُشْفَى بِهِ سَقِيمُنَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّنَا ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ
‏”‏ يُشْفَى ‏”‏ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ زُهَيْرٌ ‏”‏ لِيُشْفَى سَقِيمُنَا ‏”‏ ‏.‏
