Description
Summary:Some of the Ahadith in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih al-Muslim about casting a magic spell on Prophet Muhammad have made Sunni commentators and Muhaddithin relate the circumstance of revelation for Surah al-Falaq and Surah an-Nas to casting a magic spell on Prophet Muhammad by someone called Labid bin A’sam Yahudi. Sunni commentators thus recognize that this event is not against the infallibility of the Holy Prophet and his dignity of Nabuwwat. This article aims to answer this research question: Can the event of casting a magic spell on the Holy Prophet by Labid bin A’sam in Medina, as it is mentioned in some of the Ahadith, be the circumstance of revelation for Surah an-Nas and Surah al-Falaq? The results of the study show that due to some discrepancies between commentators on whether these chapters are Makki or Madani, some contradictory traditions on their circumstance of revelation, the referential and conceptual weakness of  the traditions about the magic spell on the Prophet, and stylistics of the above chapters having a Makki context, it is concluded that the circumstance of revelation for the above chapters cannot be attributed to the event of casting a magic spell on the Holy Prophet. © Seyed Mousavi, S.H; Mortazawi, S.M; Abdollah Zadeh, S.H.
