As Salaamu Alaikoum,
Praise be to Allah.
The magic worked on the prophet was from a Jew and the story is mentioned in the hadith not the Quran:
Narrated 'Aisha
Magic was worked on Allah's Apostle so that he began
to imagine that he had done something although he had
not. One day while he was with me, he invoked Allah
and invoked for a long period and then said, "O 'Aisha!
Do you know that Allah has instructed me regarding the
matter I asked Him about?" I asked, "What is that, O
Allah's Apostle?" He said, "Two men came to me; one of
them sat near my head and the other sat near my feet.
One of them asked his companion, 'What is the disease
of this man?' The other replied, 'He is under the effect of
magic.' The first one asked, 'Who has worked magic
on him?' The other replied, 'Labid bin A'sam, a Jew from
the tribe of Bani Zuraiq.' The (first one asked), 'With
what has it been done?' The other replied, 'With a a
comb and the hair stuck to it and a skin of the pollen of a
male date palm tree.' The first one asked, 'Where is it?'
The other replied, 'In the well of Dharwan.'" Then the
Prophet went along with some of his companions to
that well and looked at that and there were date palms
near to it. Then he returned to me and said, 'By Allah the
water of that well was (red) like the infusion of Henna
leaves and its date palms were like the heads of devils"
I said, "O Allah's Apostle! Did you take those materials
out of the pollen skin?" He said, "No! As for me Allah has
healed me and cured me and I was afraid that (by
showing that to the people) I would spread evil among
them. Then he ordered that the well be filled up with
earth, and it was filled up with earth." [Bukhari 7.661]
After Allah healed the prophet(saw) is when Allah then sent the revelation of the Falaq and Nas:
Narrated AbuSa'id al-Khudri
The Prophet (peace be upon him) used to seek protection against the Jinn and the evil eye till surahs al-Falaq and an-Nas were revealed. After they were revealed he stuck to them and discarded everything beside them. [Transmitted by Tirmidhi]
Surat falaq (113 Quran)
Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of the Dawn From the mischief of created things;
From the mischief of Darkness as it overspreads;
From the mischief of those who practice Secret Arts;
And from the mischief of the envious one as he practices envy.
Surat Nas (114 Quran)
Say: I seek refuge with the Lord and Cherisher of Mankind The King (or Ruler) of Mankind The Allah (or Judge) of Mankind From the mischief of the Whisperer (of Evil) who withdraws (after his whisper) (The same) who whispers into the hearts of mankind Among Jinns and among Men. And from the mischief of the envious one as he practices envy.
AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST
