Here is a link to the Muwatta of Imam Malik, [b. 93 AH] possibly the earliest and argubly the most reliable collection of Traditions attributed to the Messenger of God, upon whom be peace!
Bear in mind though that Hadith were not normally written down in the time of the Prophet peace be upon him or the 4 Caliphs, and are preserved henceforth through human effort, which retains the possibility of error.
The translation is from sister Aisha Bewley.
Here's an excerpt:-
50.4 Seeking Refuge and Using Talismans in Illness
9 Yahya related to me from Malik from Yazid ibn Khusayfa that 'Amr ibn 'Abdullah ibn Ka'b as-Salami told him that Nafi' ibn Jubayr came to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. 'Uthman ibn Abi al-'As also came to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. 'Uthman said that he had a pain which was enough to kill him. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, "Rub it with your right hand seven times and say, 'I take refuge with the might of Allah and His power from the evil of what I feel.' "
'Uthman added, "I said that and Allah removed what I had. I still command my family and others to say it."
[also in Abu Dawud and at-Tirmidhi]
10 Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from 'Urwa ibn az-Zubayr from 'A'isha that when the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, had a complaint, he would recite the last three suras of the Qur'an over himself and blow. She said, "When his pain was great, I would recite it over him and wipe him with his right hand hoping for its blessing."
[also Bukhari and Muslim]
11 Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Sa'id from 'Amra bint 'Abd ar-Rahman that Abu Bakr as-Siddiq visited 'A'isha at a time when she had a complaint and a Jewish woman was writing a talisman for her. Abu Bakr said, "Write it for her from the Book of Allah."
