HIS DEATH
Labid, the Jewish sorcerer:
There were several attempts on the life of our Prophet, praise and
veneration be upon him, by the Jews as well as the Koraysh. After the
Battle of the Trench, a Jew from Khybar paid Labid, a Jewish sorcerer in
Medina handsomely to cast a spell of deadly proportions on him.
Labid collected eleven strands of the Prophet's hair, tied them into knots
and as each knot was tied his daughters breathed upon them as they
uttered devilish incantations. Labid then attached the knotted strands of
hair to a twig that had the pollen of a male date palm on it and threw it into
a very deep well. The only way to deactivate the spell was for each of the
knots to be untied, however, the well would first have to be found and Labid
was the only one who knew which one he had thrown it into.
