al-Bukhārī included two ḥadīths for him as corroboration, so I hope the ḥadīth is good, especially since it was narrated through another route from Anas with the wording: "When the ailment becomes severe, seek help through cupping, lest the blood of any of you overcomes him and kills him." al-Ḥākim authenticated it, and al-Dhahabī agreed with him, but it contains a liar and others, which is why I included it in the other book under number (2331). I also found a supporting narration from Ibn ʿAbbās, elevated, with the wording: "Seek help through cupping in the severity of war, for the blood might overcome a man and kill him." But it contains another liar, which is why I included it there as well under number (2363). There are many ḥadīths encouraging cupping, some of which have been previously referenced in this book, see for example numbers (622 and 1847), and I only included this for its second part, and I found a third route from Anas, elevated, with the wording: "Whoever wants cupping should choose the seventeenth... and let not the blood of any of you overcome him and kill him." But its isnād is very weak as I explained there (1864), yet it has a decent supporting evidence in the witnesses which I included there (1863). Thus, the ḥadīth is authentic, if Allāh wills. (Note): This ḥadīth is among those missed by al-Suyūṭī in "al-Jāmiʿ al-Kabīr" and others. (Tabīgh): In "al-Qāmūs al-Muḥīṭ": "(al-Baygh) is the surging of blood, and Tabīgh of blood: it surged and overwhelmed." And in "al-Hādī ilá Lughat al-ʿArab": "Bāgha al-dam: it surged and overwhelmed as is the case with those who have high blood pressure."
