( Okay it's a bit long and I hope you don't get bored, just wrote this on my phone in a hurry )

السلام عليكم

Going Umrah first time and never having Hijama done, I was told by a cousin to have Hijama done once there and that it's Sunnah. So I thought yeah why not. Towards the latter part of Umrah in Madinah, me and a few other guys from our group decided to find a place, so we flagged a white saloon car assuming its a taxi and jumped in ( usually they weren't even taxi drivers but they would drive us about, take us to wherever we wanted to go, even take us for cruises and would hardly charge even any money, later we figured that the cars we thought were taxis weren't taxis at all just local Arab brothers doing hidmah of the guests of the blessed city ). Anyway back to hijamah, so we asked the driver that to take us to a hijamah place, he drove about 15 mins and stopped outside some worn out street outside some old house and said go in there, we refused and on top my cousin had told me to make sure it was a legit place, so we said no and said take us to a hospital where they do hijamah, I guess it was just about the reassurance for ourselves that professionals are doing the job.

So we turned up at a hospital and met the doctor, who was qualified from the UK and US and spoke fluent english. He told us the types and for what you can have it done for, we just said alhumdulilah no problems whatsoever just want the Sunnah method done that's all. I said to him brother I'm fully fit I swim, I do weights, play football, martial arts etc. He was asking health questions etc, with me and the others he was adamant that we get done behind the lungs on the back especially when he found out its our first time for Umrah , I still refused until he said he'll do it for free, so I agreed and said okay not free but I'll pay. Another brother wanted it for lower back problems and another brother who was married and he recommended him to get Hijama for that as he was trying for a kid, boys being boys we found it hilarious at the time.

Anyway then the doctor said who will go first after explaining the procedure. Funny thing everyone went quiet and no one wanted to go first, so I decided to take the lead took my Jubba/thawb off and the vest and laid myself down on my stomach on the hospital bed. Then he started, basically I think they wet the places slightly, then with some needles make small holes in your back basically poking you, it's feels like nothing other than something pricking against your skin and then they apply the suction lids and remove blood and keep doing it. Anyway when everyone saw that I'm doing it and I'm relaxed so they all decided to jump on too, next 40 mins all you hear is 'OoH Aah Ooh', the doctor was laughing and said when ever we have a group of foreign lads that's what they always do making loads of noise but when they're on their own you won't even hear a single noise, we just laughed it off.

From me a lot of dark dirty blood came out, he showed me as well and then comes our with akhii you are a big sinner, you hear umrah first time make sure you change and go back, no more sins, khallas you stop, I don't know where he came out with that from but I just said yeah Shaikh make dua for me, everyone else was just staring at the blood, the doctor did say I've never seen such dark blood before, but alhumdulilah in the end color returned to normal of it. After the hijamah session we all felt extremely weak, so the doctor gave us some orange juice of which we drank about 2/3 small cartons each. We wanted some food and he started suggesting these fancy Chinese restaurants, I decided I wanted to try local food, so I told everyone to wait, went outside met an Arab brother and asked him to recommend some Arab food, he said to walk down a 100 yards and ill see it, found this place where they sell some kind of naan bread stuffed with egg and mince meat, I was just staring from outside watching them make the stuff the Arab brother inside called me inside and then took me in the kitchen to show me how they make the stuff, I was impressed so I went back and got the other brothers and we ate to our full.

Needed that food to be honest, during the Hijama, he did on my back where the lungs are, then upper back around the shoulder blades in the middle I think and right below my ear lobes shaving that hair, anyway as the hair was short from shaving it off in Makkah I decided not to have a hair cut and leave it like that. Next few days I felt fresh but slightly weak,sujood was hard as I would feel my entire brain fall forward, got used to it in the end, felt alert, strong and fresh.

Would go again, would recommend, why not ? It's Sunnah.

Salaamualaikum brother suleiman.

I read alittle of this book but the book doesn't teach anyone how to perform the hijamah. The author only talks about the virtues of having the hijamah done. I hope that helps inshallah.

The reason behind getting that much honour was your ethnicity.......please don't call me racist.......seriously Arabs respect UK/US citizens too much.

Once I was with a Jamaat and our ameer was a Hijamah expert. He brought suction cups and other equipments with him to provide service fee sabeelillaah. During that 40 days most of the members of our Jamaat and many local old people took his service. I didn't dare to perform it after seeing bloods. One day we went to a big Madrasah to meet Ulama. During conversation they heard about it and made their Hijamah done. I clearly remember a scholar said (there's a Hadith) that money earned by doing Hijamah is one of the worst incomes.

Salaamualaikum brother BT

rasullullah ( sallaahualaihiwassalaam ) had hijamah done on himself and payed someone for his services. It is halal to charge a fee and there is nothing wrong with a profession of being a cupper. Where does this alim site his evidence for this statement of his? Please furnish if you can.
Jazakullah

Sorry brother I don't know that Hadith exactly. Perhaps respected admin Moulana Yasin can shed some light on it.

After this post I asked my hadrath about this, who is a Mufti and shaik-ul-Hadith. His reply was "its permissible to charge hijama fee"
