As Medical Treatment

Hadith - Sahih Bukhari 7.599, Narrated Anas Radiya

that he was asked about the wages of the one who cups others. He said, -Allah’s Apostle was cupped by Abd Taiba, to whom he gave two Sa of food and interceded for him with his masters who consequently reduced what they used to charge him daily. Then the Prophet sallallahu alehi wasallam (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, ‘The best medicines you may treat yourselves with are cupping and sea incense.’ He added, ‘You should not torture your children by treating tonsillitis by pressing the tonsils or the palate with the finger, but use incense.’ “

I heard the Prophet sallallahu alehi wasallam (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)saying, “Treat with the Indian incense, for it has healing for seven diseases; it is to be sniffed by one having throat trouble, and to be put into one side of the mouth of one suffering from pleurisy.” ...

Aishah Radiya ‘LLAHU ‘ ANHA ( ‘ MAY ALLAH BE PLEASED WITH HER ‘ ) ‘said, “Perfume the Ka’bah, because this is a part of purifying it.” Ibn Az-Zubair used to perfume the entire interior of the Ka’bah. He used to burn one pound of incense in the Ka’bah daily, but on Friday, he burnt two pounds of incense.

Fiqh-us-Sunnah 2.71

‘Aishah reports that the Prophet sallallahu alehi wasallam (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)ordered that mosques be built in residential areas and that they be cleaned and perfumed. This is related by Ahmad, Abu Dawud, at-Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah, and Ibn Hibban with a good chain. Abu Dawud’s wording is: “He ordered us to build the mosques in the residential areas, to build them well, and to purify them. ‘Abdullah would burn incense when ‘Umar would sit on the pulpit.”

Anas reports that the Prophet sallallahu alehi wasallam (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “The rewards of my ummah were placed before me, even for removing a speck of dust from the mosque.” This is related by Abu Dawud, at-Tirmidhi, and Ibn Khuzaimah who calls it sahih.
