491. روى غطيف بن الحارث أن رجلاً جاء إلى أبي عبيدة بن الجراح وهو يتألم، فقال: "ما أجر الأمير؟" فقال أبو عبيدة: "هل تعلم فيما تُؤجر؟" قال الرجل: "نُؤجر على ما يصيبنا مما نكرهه." فقال أبو عبيدة: "بل تُؤجر على ما تنفقه في سبيل الله وعلى ما يُنفَق عليك. ثم يُحاسَب على كل شيء في السرج، حتى عنان الفرس. ويُكفّر الله عنك أخطاءك بسبب هذا التعب الذي أصاب أجسادكم." 492. روى أبو هريرة أن النبي ﷺ قال: "لا يصيب المسلمَ نَصَبٌ ولا وَصَبٌ ولا هَمٌّ ولا حزنٌ ولا أذًى ولا غمٌّ، حتى الشوكةُ يُشاكها، إلا كفّر الله بها من خطاياه." 493. روى عبد الرحمن بن سعيد أن أباه قال: "كنت مع سلمان حين عاد مريضاً في كندة. فلما دخل قال: 'أبشر! فإن الله يجعل مرض المؤمن تكفيراً له وطهوراً، أما مرض الفاجر فمثله كمثل البعير، عقلَه أهلُه ثم أطلقوه، فلا يدري لِمَ عُقل ولا لِمَ أُطلق.'" 494. روى أبو هريرة أن النبي ﷺ قال: "لا يزال البلاء بالمؤمن والمؤمنة في جسده وأهله وماله حتى يلقى الله تعالى وما عليه خطيئة." وفي رواية أخرى زيادة: "وفي ولده." 495. قال أبو هريرة: "جاء أعرابي فقال النبي ﷺ: 'أأخذتك أم ملدم؟' قال: 'وما أم ملدم؟' قال: 'حرارةٌ بين الجلد واللحم.' قال الأعرابي: 'لا.' فسأل: 'أفَبِك صُداع؟' قال: 'وما الصداع؟' قال: 'ريحٌ تعرض في الرأس فتضرب العروق.'" قَالَ: «لَا». وَلَمَّا قَامَ قَالَ: «مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ، فَلْيَنْظُرْ إِلَى هَذَا الرَّجُلِ».

491. Ghatif ibn al-Harith said that a man came to Abu 'Ubayda ibn al-Jarrah while he was in pain and asked, "What is the reward of the amir?" Abu 'Ubayda said, "Do you know that for which you will be rewarded?" The man replied, "We will be rewarded for things which happen to us which we dislike." Abu 'Ubayda said, "Rather you will be rewarded for what you spend in the Cause of Allah and what is spent on you. Then there is a reckoning for all parts of the saddle, even the horse's bridle. Allah will remove your errors from you for the sake of this fatigue which has afflicted your bodies." 492. Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "A Muslim does not encounter fatigue, tiredness, concern, sorrow, injury or grief, or even a thorn which pricks him without Allah expiating his errors for him by that." 493. 'Abdu'r-Rahman ibn Sa'id reported that his father said, "I was with Salman when he visited a sick person in Kinda. When he went in, he said, 'Good news! Allah makes the illness of the believer an expiation for him and a restoration, whereas the illness of the corrupt person is like a camel whose people hobble it and the let it go. It doe sot know why it was hobbled or released.'" 494. Abu Hurayra reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Affliction will continue to trouble the believers, men and women, in their bodies, their families, and their property until they meet Allah Almighty purified of every wrong action." Another transmission adds, "and in their children." 495. Abu Hurayra said, "A bedouin came and the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, asked, 'Has Umm Mildam (fever) got hold of you?' 'What is Umm Mildam?' he asked. He said, 'The heat between the skin and the flesh.' The bedouin said, 'No.' He asked, 'Have you got a headache?' 'What is headache?' the man asked. He replied, 'A wind which appears in the head and beats the veins.' 'No,' he said, When he stood up, he said, 'Whoever wants to look at a man who is one of the people of the Fire,' i.e. 'let them look at that man.'"

509۔ روى هشام عن أبيه (عروة بن الزبير) قال: "دخلتُ أنا وعبد الله بن الزبير على أسماء قبل أن يُقتل عبد الله بعشر ليالٍ، وكانت تشتكي، فقال لها عبد الله: كيف تجدينك؟ قالت: أجدني وعكة. فقال لها: إني أنا أُحِبُّ الموتَ. فقالت: لا تفعل يا بُنيَّ، أتُراك تشتهي موتي؟ فلا تفعل، فوالله ما أحبّ أن أموتَ حتى آخذَ بحدى الأمرين: إما أن تَقتل فأحتسبك، وإما أن تظفر فتَقرّ عيني. إياك أن تُعطى ما تُعطى على غير ما تريد من الحق. فليس بجيّدٍ بفعلك أن تُقتل أو تسكت (تَكرهُ الموت). واحتسبي"، يعني أنه سيُقتل، وذلك يُحزنها.

509. Hisham reported that his father ('Urwa ibn az-Zubayr) said, "'Abdullah ibn az-Zubayr and I went to visit Asma' ten nights before 'Abdullah was killed. Asma' was in pain and 'Abdullah asked her, 'How are you feeling?' 'In pain,' she replied. He said, 'I am near death.' She said, 'Perhaps you desire my death and that is the reason you desire it? Do not do that. By Allah, I do not want to die until I reach one of the two ends: either you will be killed and I will leave you to Allah or you will win and I will be content. Beware of having your portion presented to you and then you do not agree with it. Accept it, even though you dislike death." Ibn az-Zubayr meant that he would be killed and that would grieve her.

510. عن أبي سعيد الخدري رضي الله عنه أنه جاء إلى رسول الله ﷺ وهو يُوعَك، وعليه قطيفة، فوضع يده عليه فوجد حرارتها فوق القطيفة، فقال أبو سعيد: ما أشد حماك يا رسول الله! فقال: «إنا كذلك يُشدّ علينا البلاء، ويُضاعَف لنا الأجر». قال: يا رسول الله، أيُّ الناس أشد بلاءً؟ قال: «الأنبياء، ثم الصالحون، وإن كان أحدهم ليُبتلى بالفقر حتى ما يجد إلا العباءة يحوبها، فيلبسها، وإن كان أحدهم ليفرح بالبلاء كما يفرح أحدكم بالعطاء».

510. Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported that he came to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, while he had a fever. He had a covering over him. He placed his hand on him and discovered that it was hot above the covering. Abu Sa'id exclaimed, 'How hot your fever is, Messenger of Allah!' He said, 'We are like that. The affliction is hard on us, but the reward is doubled for us.' He said, 'Messenger of Allah, which people have the greatest affliction?' He replied, 'The Prophets, and then the righteous. One of them was tested by poverty to such an extent that he could only find a robe to cover himself with and he wore it. Another was tested by fleas until they killed him. They have greater joy in affliction than one of you has in gifts."

511. قال جابر بن عبد الله: "مرضتُ، فجاء النبيُّ ﷺ وأبو بكرٍ يعودانني، فجاءا ماشيين، فوجداني قد أُغمي عليّ، فتوضأ النبيُّ ﷺ ثم صبّ وَضوءَه عليّ، فأفقتُ، فإذا النبيُّ ﷺ عندي. فقلتُ: يا رسولَ الله، ماذا أصنع في مالي؟ كيف أقضي في مالي؟ فلم يُجبني بشيء حتى نزلت آيةُ المِيراث."

511. Jabir ibn 'Abdullah said, "I was ill, and the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, came with Abu Bakr to visit me. They came on foot. They found that I had fainted, so the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, did wudu' and then poured his wudu' water on me. I came to and the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was there. I asked, 'Messenger of Allah, what should I do with my property? Give me a judgement regarding my property.' He did not give me any answer until the ayat of inheritance was revealed."

512. رَوَى أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ أَنَّ ابْنًا لِإِحْدَى بَنَاتِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ مَرِيضًا جِدًّا، فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ تُخْبِرُهُ أَنَّ ابْنَهَا يُحْتَضَرُ. فَقَالَ لِلرَّسُولِ: «ارْجِعْ إِلَيْهَا فَأَخْبِرْهَا أَنَّ لِلهِ مَا أَخَذَ وَمَا أَعْطَى، وَكُلُّ شَيْءٍ عِنْدَهُ بِأَجَلٍ مُسَمًّى، فَلْتَصْبِرْ وَلْتَحْتَسِبْ». فَرَجَعَ الرَّسُولُ فَأَخْبَرَهَا. فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى تُقْسِمُ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهَا. فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَمَعَهُ جَمَاعَةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ، مِنْهُمْ سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ. فَأَخَذَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الصَّبِيَّ فَوَضَعَهُ فِي حِجْرِهِ، وَكَانَ الصَّبِيُّ يَتَقَلْقَلُ كَأَنَّهُ شَنٌّ. فَبَكَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ سَعْدٌ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَتَبْكِي؟ فَقَالَ: «إِنَّمَا يَرْحَمُ اللهُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ الرُّحَمَاءَ».

512. Usama ibn Zayd reported that a child of one of the daughters of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was very ill. His mother sent word to the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, to say that her child was dying. He told the messenger, "Go and tell her that to Allah belongs what He takes and what He gives. Everything is with Him until a stated term. She should be patient and leave him to Allah." The messenger went back and told her. She sent to him again to plead with him to come. The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, got up with a group of his Companions, including Sa'd ibn 'Ubada. The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, took the child and put him on his breast. The child was shaking like a leaf against his chest. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, wept and Sa'd said, "Do you weep, Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "I weep out of compassion for the child. Allah only shows mercy to those of His slaves who are merciful."

513. قال إبراهيم بن أبي عبلة: كانت زوجتي مريضة، وكنت أذهب إلى أم الدرداء، فقالت لي: "كيف أهلك؟" فقلت: "مرضى". فأمرت بطعام لي فأكلت. ثم رجعت فصنعت مثل ذلك. ثم دخلت عليها مرة أخرى فقالت: "كيف هم؟" فقلت: "قد قاربوا العافية". فقالت: "إني أمرت لك بطعام حين قلت لي إن أهلك مرضى، وأما الآن وقد قاربوا العافية فلن نأمر لك بشيء".

513. Ibrahim ibn Abi 'Abla said, "My wife was ill and I used to go to Umm ad-Darda'. She asked me, 'How's your family?' 'Ill,' I replied. She called for some food for me and I ate. Then I went back and she did the same thing again. I visited her yet again and she asked, 'How are they?' 'They are almost well,' I replied. She said, 'I called for good for you when you told me that your family were ill. Since they are almost well know, we will not call for anything for you.'"

514. روى ابنُ عباسٍ رضي الله عنهما أنَّ رسولَ اللهِ ﷺ دخلَ على أعرابيٍّ يعودُه وهو مريضٌ، فقال: «لا بأسَ، طَهورٌ إن شاء اللهُ». فقال الأعرابيُّ: بل هي حُمَّى تفورُ على شيخٍ كبيرٍ، تُزيرُه القبورَ. فقال: «فإذن»، أي: «فهي بلاءٌ مكفِّرٌ».

514. Ibn 'Abbas reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, went to visit a bedouin when he was ill and said, "Do not worry. It is a purification if Allah so wills." He said that the bedouin said, "It is a fever which boils in an old man and will cause him to visit the graves." "It is a blessing then," he concluded.

515. روى أبو هريرة أن رسول الله ﷺ قال: «مَنْ أَصْبَحَ مِنْكُمُ الْيَوْمَ صَائِمًا؟» فقال أبو بكر: أنا. قال: «فَمَنْ تَبِعَ مِنْكُمُ الْيَوْمَ جَنَازَةً؟» قال أبو بكر: أنا. قال: «فَمَنْ عَادَ مِنْكُمُ الْيَوْمَ مَرِيضًا؟» قال أبو بكر: أنا. قال: «فَمَنْ أَطْعَمَ مِنْكُمُ الْيَوْمَ مِسْكِينًا؟» قال أبو بكر: أنا. قال مروان الراوي: سمعتُ النبيَّ ﷺ يقول: «مَا اجْتَمَعْنَ فِي امْرِئٍ فِي يَوْمٍ إِلَّا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ». 516. قال جابر: دخل النبيُّ ﷺ على أُمِّ السَّائِب وهي تُزَفْزِفُ، فقال: «مَا لَكِ تُزَفْزِفِينَ؟» قالت: الحُمَّى، لا بارك اللهُ فيها! فقال النبيُّ ﷺ: «لَا تَسُبِّي الْحُمَّى، فَإِنَّهَا تُذْهِبُ خَطَايَا بَنِي آدَمَ كَمَا يُذْهِبُ الْكِيرُ خَبَثَ الْحَدِيدِ». 517. روى أبو هريرة أن رسول الله ﷺ قال: «يقولُ اللهُ: يا ابنَ آدمَ، اسْتَطْعَمْتُكَ فَلَمْ تُطْعِمْنِي. فيقولُ: يا رَبِّ، كيف أُطْعِمُكَ وأنتَ رَبُّ العالَمِينَ؟ فيقولُ: أَمَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّهُ اسْتَطْعَمَكَ عبدِي فلانٌ فلم تُطْعِمْهُ؟ أَمَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّكَ لو أطعمتَهُ لوجدتَ ذلك عندي؟ يا ابنَ آدمَ، اسْتَسْقَيْتُكَ فلم تَسْقِنِي. فيقولُ: يا رَبِّ، كيف أَسْقِيكَ وأنتَ رَبُّ العالَمِينَ؟ فيقولُ: اسْتَسْقاكَ عبدِي فلانٌ فلم تَسْقِهِ، أَمَا إِنَّكَ لو سَقَيْتَهُ لوجدتَ ذلك عندي. يا ابنَ آدمَ، مَرِضْتُ فلم تَعُدْنِي. فيقولُ: يا رَبِّ، كيف أَعُودُكَ وأنتَ رَبُّ العالَمِينَ؟ فيقولُ: أَمَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ عبدِي فلانًا مَرِضَ فلم تَعُدْهُ؟». "فَإِنَّكَ لَوْ عُدْتَهُ لَوَجَدْتَنِي عِنْدَهُ" (أَوْ: لَوَجَدْتَ ذَلِكَ عِنْدِي). 518. وَعَنْ سَعِيدٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ: «عُودُوا الْمَرِيضَ، وَاتَّبِعُوا الْجَنَازَةَ، تُذَكِّرُكُمُ الْآخِرَةَ». 519. وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ: «حَقُّ الْمُسْلِمِ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِ ثَلَاثٌ: عِيَادَةُ الْمَرِيضِ، وَاتِّبَاعُ الْجَنَائِزِ، وَتَشْمِيتُ الْعَاطِسِ إِذَا حَمِدَ اللهَ تَعَالَى».

515. Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, asked, "Which of you is fasting today?" Abu Bakr said, "I am." He asked, "Which of you has visited a sick person today? "I have," Abu Bakr stated. Then he asked, "Who has attended a funeral today?" "I have," Abu Bakr said. He asked, "Who has fed a poor person today?" Abu Bakr said, "I have." Marwan, the transmitter, said, "I heard that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, observed, "These qualities are not brought together in one man on a single day but that he will enter the Garden." 516. Jabir said, "The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, visited Umm as-Sa'ib while she was sighing. He asked, 'What is wrong with you?' 'The fever,' she replied, "May Allah debase it!' The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Gently! Do not curse it. It removes the errors of the believer as the bellows remove the dross of iron.'" 517. Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Allah says: 'I asked you for food and you did not feed Me. He (His slave) will say, 'Lord, how could I feed You when You did not ask me for food and You are the Lord of the universe?' He will say, 'Do you not know that My slave so-and-so asked you for food and you did not feed him? Do you not know that if you had fed him, you would have found that action with Me? Son of Adam, I asked you for water and you did not give Me water.' The slave will reply, 'O Lord, how could I give you water when You are the Lord of the universe?' He will say, 'My slave so-and-so asked you for water and you did not give him water. Do you not know that if you had given him water, you would have found that action with Me? Son of Adam, I was ill and you did not visit Me.' He will say, 'O Lord, how could I visit You when You are the Lord of the universe?' He will say, 'Do you not know that My slave so-and-so was ill. If you had visited him you would have found that action with Me (or you would have found Me with him)." 518. Sa'id reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Visit the sick. Follow funeral processions. Remind yourselves of the Next World." 519.

520. ثلاثة من بني سعد عن أبيهم أن رسول الله ﷺ زار سعد بن أبي وقاص بمكة فبكى سعد، فقال له: «ما يبكيك؟» فقال: أخشى أن أموت في الأرض التي هاجرت منها كما مات سعد بن خولة. فقال النبي ﷺ: «اللهم اشف سعدًا» ثلاث مرات. فقال سعد: إن لي مالًا كثيرًا، وليس يرثني إلا ابنة لي، أفأوصي بمالي كله؟ قال: «لا». قال: فالثلثين؟ قال: «لا». قال: فالنصف؟ قال: «لا». قال: فالثلث؟ قال: «الثلث، والثلث كثير، إنك أن تدع ورثتك أغنياء خير من أن تدعهم عالة يتكففون الناس، وإنك مهما أنفقت فهو لك صدقة، حتى اللقمة ترفعها إلى في امرأتك». ... إنك أن تدع ورثتك أغنياء خير من أن تدعهم عالة يتكففون الناس، وإنك مهما أنفقت فهو لك صدقة، حتى اللقمة ترفعها إلى فيّ امرأتك.

520. Three of the Banu Sa'd related from their father that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, visited Sa'd (ibn Abi Waqqas) in Makka and Sa'd wept. He asked, "Why are your weeping?" Sa'd replied, "I fear that I will die in the land from which I have emigrated as Sa'd (ibn Khawla) died." The Prophet said, "O Allah, heal Sa'd!" three times. Sa'd said, "I have a lot of property which my daughter will inherit. Shall I will all of it away?" "No," he replied. Sa'd asked, "Two- thirds?" "No," he replied. "A half then?" Sa'd asked. "No," he answered. Sa'd asked, "A third?" "A third," he said, "but a third is a lot. What you give as sadaqa from your property is sadaqa. What you spend on your family is sadaqa. What your wife eats of your food is sadaqa for you. It is better for you to leave your family in a state of plenty (or he said "livelihood") than to leave them where they have to importune people."

521. عن أبي قلابة، عن أبي الأشعث الصنعاني، أن أبا أسماء قال: «من زار أخاه فهو في خيمة من خيام الجنة». قلتُ لأبي قلابة: ما خيمة الجنة؟ قال: ثمارها. قلتُ لأبي قلابة: عمّن روى أسماء؟ قال: عن ثوبان، عن رسول الله ﷺ.

521. Abu Qilaba reported from Abu'l-Ash'ath as-San'ani that Abu Asma' said, "Whoever visits his brother is in a tent of the Garden." I (the transmitter) asked Abu Qilaba, "What is the tent of the Garden?" "Its fruits," he replied. I said to Abu Qilaba, "From whom did Asma' transmit?" "From Thawban from the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace," he replied.

522. أبو بكر بن جُزء ومحمد بن المُنكدِر كانا من أهل المسجد، فزارا عُمر بن الحكم بن رافع الأنصاري، فقالا: "يا أبا حفص! حدِّثنا!" فقال: "سمعتُ عبد الله يقول: سمعتُ النبيَّ ﷺ يقول: «إذا عاد الرجلُ المريضَ خاض في الرحمة، فإذا قعد عنده قرَّ فيها»."

522. Abu Bakr ibn Juz' and Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir were some people from the mosque who visited 'Umar ibn al-Hakam ibn Rafi' al-Ansari. They said, "Abu Hafs! Relate to us!" He said, "I heard 'Abdullah say that he heard the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, "When someone visits a sick person, he dives into mercy to such an extent that when he sits with him, he settles in it."

523. قال عطاء: «زار ابنُ عمر ابنَ صفوان، فحضرت الصلاةُ، فصلّى بهم ابنُ عمر ركعتين ثم قال: إني مسافر».

524. رَوَى أَنَسٌ أَنَّ غُلَامًا يَهُودِيًّا كَانَ يَخْدُمُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ، فَمَرِضَ، فَعَادَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ، فَقَعَدَ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ: «أَسْلِمْ». فَنَظَرَ الْغُلَامُ إِلَى أَبِيهِ وَهُوَ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ، فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُوهُ: أَطِعْ أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ. فَأَسْلَمَ الْغُلَامُ. فَخَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَنْقَذَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ!».

524. Anas reported that a Jewish boy used to serve the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. The boy became ill and the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, went to visit him. He sat by his head and said, "Become a Muslim." The boy looked at his father who was also sitting by his head. His father said to him, "Obey Abu'l-Qasim (may Allah bless him and grant him peace)." So the boy became a Muslim. The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, left saying, "Praise be to Allah who has saved him from the Fire!"

525. قالت عائشة: "لما قدم رسول الله ﷺ المدينة أصاب أبا بكر وبلالاً الحمى. فكنت أعودهما، فقلت: يا أبت كيف تجدك؟ يا بلال كيف تجدك؟ فكان أبو بكر إذا اشتدت به الحمى قال:

525. 'A'isha said, "When the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, came to Madina, Abu Bakr and Bilal came down with a fever. I visited them and asked, 'Father, how are you? Bilal, how are you?' When Abu Bakr's fever worsened, he said:

«كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مُصَبَّحٌ فِي أَهْلِهِ، وَالْمَوْتُ أَدْنَى مِنْ شِرَاكِ نَعْلِهِ». وَلَمَّا أَقْلَعَتْ عَنْ بِلَالٍ الْحُمَّى، رَفَعَ صَوْتَهُ: «أَلَا لَيْتَ شِعْرِي هَلْ أَبِيتَنَّ لَيْلَةً بِوَادٍ وَحَوْلِي إِذْخِرٌ وَجَلِيلُ؟ وَهَلْ أَرِدَنْ يَوْمًا مِيَاهَ مَجَنَّةٍ؟ وَهَلْ يَبْدُوَنْ لِي شَامَةٌ وَطَفِيلُ؟». قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: «فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِمَا قَالُوا، فَقَالَ: "اللَّهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ كَحُبِّنَا مَكَّةَ أَوْ أَشَدَّ، وَصَحِّحْهَا، وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِهَا وَمُدِّهَا، وَانْقُلْ حُمَّاهَا فَاجْعَلْهَا بِالْجُحْفَةِ". ﷺ 526. وَعَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ دَخَلَ عَلَى أَعْرَابِيٍّ يَعُودُهُ، وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا دَخَلَ عَلَى مَرِيضٍ يَعُودُهُ قَالَ: "لَا بَأْسَ، طَهُورٌ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ". فَقَالَ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ: كَلَّا، بَلْ هِيَ حُمَّى تَفُورُ، أَوْ تَثُورُ، عَلَى شَيْخٍ كَبِيرٍ، تُزِيرُهُ الْقُبُورَ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: "فَنَعَمْ إِذًا". ﷺ 527. وَعَنْ نَافِعٍ: أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا كَانَ إِذَا عَادَ مَرِيضًا سَأَلَهُ عَنْ حَالِهِ، فَإِذَا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ: "أَحْسَنَ اللهُ لَكَ الِاخْتِيَارَ". وَلَمْ يَزِدْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ.

'Every man is struck down among his people in the morning, when death is closer than the strap of his sandal.' "When the fever left Bilal, he raised his voice: 'And whether one day I will go the waters of Majinna! Will the mountains of Shama and Tafil appear to me?'" 'A'isha continued, "I then went to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and told him what they had said. He said, 'O Allah! Make us love Madina as we love Makka or even more! Make it healthy. Bless us in its sa' and its mudd. Take its fever away and put it in al-Juhfa.'" 526. Ibn 'Abbas reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, went to visit a bedouin who was ill. When the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, visited someone who was ill, he would say, 'There is no harm in it. It is a purification, Allah willing." That man then said, "A purification! No, rather it is a fever which boils (or appears) in an old man and will cause him to visit the graces." The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "All right then." 527. Nafi' reported that when Ibn 'Umar visited someone who was ill, he would ask him how he was. When he left him, he would say, "May Allah choose what is best for you." He did not say more than that.

528. قال عمرو بن سعيد: زار الحجاج ابنَ عمر وأنا معه، فقال له: «كيف أنتَ؟» فقال: «بخير». فقال: «ما الذي يؤلمك؟» فقال: «أصابني أمرُ حمل السلاح في يومٍ لا يحلّ فيه حمله». كان يعني الحجاج. * وذلك حين كان الحجاج يحاصر عبدَ الله بن الزبير في الحرم.

528. 'Amr ibn Sa'id said, "Al-Hajjaj visited Ibn 'Umar while I was with him, He asked, 'How are you?' 'Sound,' he replied. He asked, 'What is wrong with you?'
