Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If Allah wants to do good to somebody, He afflicts him with trials."

أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ وَالْحَارِثِ بْنِ مِسْكِينٍ قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ عَنِ ابْنِ الْقَاسِمِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي صَعْصَعَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ أَبَا الْحُبَابِ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ يُرِدِ اللهُ بِهِ خَيْرًا يُصِبْ مِنْهُ» اللَّفْظُ لِلْحَارِثِ

Muḥammad b. Bashhār > Yaḥyá > Sufyān > Saʿd b. Ibrāhīm > Ibn Likaʿb b. Mālik from his father

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The example of a believer is like that of a plant that is affected by the wind at times and stands upright at other times. The example of a disbeliever is like that of a cedar tree that remains unaffected until it is cut down."

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سَعْدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ ابْنٍ لِكَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ مِثْلُ الْخَامَةِ مِنَ الزَّرْعِ تُفَيئُهَا الرِّيحِ مَرَّةً وَتُقِيمُهَا أُخْرَى وَمَثَلُ الْكَافِرِ مِثَلُ شَجَرَةٍ الْأُرْزِ لَا يُقِيمُهَا شَيْءٌ حَتَّى تَسْتَحْصِدَ»

Muḥammad b. Yaḥyá b. ʿAbdullāh And Nūḥ b. Ḥabīb > ʿAbd al-Razzāq > Maʿmar > al-Zuhrī > Saʿīd b. al-Musayyib > Abū Hurayrah

The Similitude of a believer is that of (a standing) crop which the air continues to toss from one side to another; in the same way a believer always (receives the strokes) of misfortune. The similitude of a hypocrite is that of a cypress tree which does not move until it is uprooted.

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ وَنُوحُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مِثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ مِثَلُ الزَّرْعِ لَا تَزَالُ الرِّيحُ تُفِيئُهُ وَلَا يَزَالُ الْمُؤْمِنُ يُصِيبُهُ الْبَلَاءُ وَمَثَلُ الْكَافِرِ مِثَلُ شَجَرَةِ الْأُرْزِ لَا تَهْتَزُّ حَتَّى تُسْتَحْصَدَ»

Qutaybah b. Saʿīd And Yaḥyá b. Ḥabīb b. ʿArabī > Ḥammād > ʿĀṣim > Muṣʿab b. Saʿd from his father

“I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, which people are most severely tested?’ He said: ‘The Prophets, then the next best and the next best. A person is tested according to his religious commitment. If he is steadfast in his religious commitment, he will be tested more severely, and if he is frail in his religious commitment, his test will be according to his commitment. Trials will continue to afflict a person until they leave him walking on the earth with no sin on him.’”

أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَيَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عَرَبِيٍّ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ مُصْعَبِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَشَدُّ بَلَاءً؟ قَالَ «الْأَنْبِيَاءُ ثُمَّ الْأَمْثَلُ فَالْأَمْثَلُ يُبْتَلَى الْعَبْدُ عَلَى حَسَبِ دِينِهِ فَإِنْ كَانَ دِينُهُ صُلْبًا اشْتَدَّ بَلَاؤُهُ وَإِنْ كَانَ فِي دِينِهِ رِقَّةٌ ابْتُلِيَ عَلَى حَسْبِ دِينِهِ فَمَا يَبْرَحُ الْبَلَاءُ بِالْعَبْدِ حَتَّى يَتْرُكَهُ يَمْشِي عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مَا بِهِ خَطِيئَةٌ»

ʿAbdullāh b. Aḥmad b. ʿAbdullāh b. Yūnus > ʿAbthar > Ḥuṣayn > Abū ʿUbaydah b. Ḥudhayfah from his aunt

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was afflicted with a severe fever, so he ordered for a bucket to be hung on a tree, and then he lay down beneath it. It began to drip on his chest, and he said, "The most severely tested among people are the prophets, then those who are most like them, and the ones who are most like them."

أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ يُونُسَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْثَرُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حُصَيْنٌ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ حُذَيْفَةَ عَنْ عَمَّتِهِ قَالَتْ

أَصَابَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ حُمَّى شَدِيدَةٌ فَأَمَرَ بِسِقَاءٍ فَعُلِّقَ بِشَجَرَةٍ ثُمَّ اضْطَجَعَ تَحْتَهُ فَجَعَلَ يَقْطُرُ عَلَى فُؤَادِهِ قَالَ «إِنَّ أَشَدَّ النَّاسِ بَلَاءً الْأَنْبِيَاءُ ثُمَّ الْأَمْثَلُ فَالْأَمْثَلُ»

Yaʿqūb b. Ibrāhīm > Yaḥyá > Sufyān > Sulaymān > Ibrāhīm > al-Ḥārith b. Sūwayd > ʿAbdullāh

I visited Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was suffering from a high fever. I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! You have a high fever." He said, "Yes, I have as much fever as two men of you." I said, "Is it because you will have a double reward?" He said, "Yes, it is so. No Muslim is afflicted with any harm, even if it were the prick of a thorn, but that Allah expiates his sins because of that, as a tree sheds its leaves."

أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ

دَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ يُوعِكُ وَعْكًا شَدِيدًا قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّكَ تُوعِكُ وَعْكًا شَدِيدًا ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ لَكَ أَجْرَيْنِ قَالَ «أَجَلْ إِنَّهُ كَذَلِكَ مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يُصِيبُهُ أَذًى مِنْ مَرَضٍ فَمَا سِوَاهُ إِلَّا كَفَّرَ اللهُ بِهِ سَيِّئَاتِهِ كَمَا تَحُطُّ الشَّجَرَةُ وَرَقَهَا»

Ibrāhīm b. Muḥammad > Yaḥyá > Sufyān > Sulaymān > Shaqīq > Masrūq > ʿĀʾishah

"I have not seen ailment effecting anyone worse than upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."

أَخْبَرَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ شَقِيقٍ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

«مَا رَأَيْتُ الْوَجَعَ عَلَى أَحَدٍ أَشَدَّ مِنْهُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ»

And Hb b. Bayān > Ibn Wahb > Yūnus > Ibn Shihāb > ʿUrwah > ʿĀʾishah

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: There is no trouble that comes to a believer except that it obliterates from his sins, even if it is the pricking of a thorn

أَخْبَرَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ بَيَانٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَا مِنْ مُصِيبَةٍ يُصَابُ بِهَا الْمُؤْمِنُ إِلَّا كُفِّرَ حَتَّى الشَّوْكَةِ يُشَاكُهَا»

Isḥāq b. Ibrāhīm > Abū Muʿāwiyah > Hishām from his father > ʿĀʾishah

A believer does not undergo (the trouble) of running a thorn or more than that when Allah effaces his sins.

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَا يُصِيبُ الْمُؤْمِنَ مِنْ شَوْكَةٍ فَمَا فَوْقَهَا إِلَّا قَصَّ اللهُ عَنْهُ بِهَا خَطِيئَتَهُ»

Qutaybah b. Saʿīd > Mālik > Isḥāq b. Ibrāhīm > Bishr b. ʿUmar > Mālik > Yazīd b. Khuṣayfah > ʿUrwah > ʿĀʾishah

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "No fatigue, illness, anxiety, sorrow, harm, or distress befalls a believer, even if it be the prick he receives from a thorn, except that Allah expiates some of his sins thereby."

أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مَالِكٍ وَأَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ عُمَرَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ خُصَيْفَةَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَا يُصِيبُ الْمُؤْمِنَ مِنْ وَصَبٍ حَتَّى الشَّوْكَةِ إِلَّا قَصَّ اللهُ بِهَا أَوْ كَفَّرَ بِهَا مِنْ خَطَايَاهُ»

A believer does not receive (the trouble) of running a thorn or more than that but Allah elevates him in rank or effaces his sins because of that.

أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَأَخْبَرَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ قَالَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يُشَاكُ شَوْكَةً فَمَا فَوْقَهَا إِلَّا رَفَعَهُ اللهُ بِهَا دَرَجَةً وَحَطَّ عَنْهُ بِهَا خَطِيئَةً»

Shuʿayb b. Yūsuf > Yaḥyá al-Qaṭṭān > Saʿd / Ibn Isḥāq > Zaynab > Abū Saʿīd > a man

"O Messenger of Allah, what do we have regarding these illnesses?" He said, "Expiations (for sins)." He said, "Even if they are few?" He said, "Even if it is just a thorn."

أَخْبَرَنِي شُعَيْبُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ عَنْ يَحْيَى الْقَطَّانِ عَنْ سَعْدٍ وَهُوَ ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَتْنِي زَيْنَبُ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ

يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا لَنَا فِي هَذِهِ الْأَمْرَاضِ؟ قَالَ «كَفَّارَاتٌ» قَالَ إِي وَإِنْ قَلَّتْ؟ قَالَ «وَلَوْ شَوْكَةً»

Ibn Abbas said to me: May I show you a woman of Paradise? I said: Yes. He said: Here is this dark-complexioned woman. She came to Allah's Apostle ﷺ and said: I am suffering from falling sickness and I become naked; supplicate Allah for me, whereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Show endurance as you can do and there would be Paradise for you and, if you desire, I supplicate Allah that He may cure you. She said: I am prepared to show endurance (but the unbearable trouble is) that I become naked, so supplicate Allah that He should not let me become naked, so he supplicated for her.

هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةُ السَّوْدَاءُ أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ لَهُ إِنِّي أُصْرَعُ وَإِنِّي أَتَكَشَّفُ فَادْعُ اللهَ قَالَ «إِنْ شِئْتِ صَبَرْتِ وَلَكِ الْجَنَّةُ وَإِنْ شِئْتِ دَعَوْتُ اللهَ أَنْ يُعَافِيَكِ» قَالَتْ أَصْبِرُ قَالَتْ «فَإِنِّي أَتَكَشَّفُ فَادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ لَا أَتَكَشَّفَ فَدَعَا لَهَا»

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to a Bedouin: "Has Umm Mildam harmed you?" The Bedouin asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is Umm Mildam?" He replied, "It is a type of heat that occurs between the skin and the blood." The Bedouin said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have never experienced this." The Prophet ﷺ then asked, "Have you ever experienced a headache?" The Bedouin asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is a headache?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "It is when veins strike a person in his head." The Bedouin said, "I have never experienced this either." When he was leaving, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever wishes to see a man from the people of Hell, let him look at this (Bedouin)."

The Prophet ﷺ said, "Free the captives, feed the hungry and pay a visit to the sick."

The Prophet ﷺ ordered us to do seven (things) and forbade us from seven. He ordered us to visit the patients, to follow the funeral procession, to reply to the sneezer (i.e., say to him, 'Yarhamuka-l-lah (May Allah bestow His Mercy upon you), if he says 'Al-hamduli l-lah' (Praise be to Allah), to help others to fulfill their oaths, to help the oppressed, to greet (whomever one should meet), and to accept the invitation (to a wedding banquet). He forbade us to wear golden rings, to use silver utensils, to use Maiyathir (cushions of silk stuffed with cotton and placed under the rider on the saddle), the Qasiyya (linen clothes containing silk brought from an Egyptian town), the Istibraq (thick silk) and the Dibaj (another kind of silk). (See Hadith No. 539 and 753).

“I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: ‘Whoever comes to his Muslim brother and visits him (when he is sick), he is walking among the harvest of Paradise until he sits down, and when he sits down he is covered with mercy. If it is morning, seventy thousand angels will send blessing upon him until evening, and if it is evening, seventy thousand angels will send blessing upon him until morning.’”

When Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Medina, Abu Bakr and Bilal got fever, and I went to both of them and said, "O my father, how do you feel? O Bilal, how do you feel?" Whenever Abu Bakr's fever got worse, he would say, "Every man will meet his death once in one morning while he will be among his family, for death is really nearer to him than his leather shoe laces (to his feet)." And whenever fever deserted Bilal, he would say aloud, "Would that I know whether I shall spend a night in the valley (of Mecca) with Idhkhir and Jalil (i.e. kinds of grass) around me, and whether I shall drink one day the water of Mijannah, and whether I shall see once again the hills of Shamah and Tafil?" Then I went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him of that.

She said, "We went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ concerning women who have recurring menstruation. And then we saw a man who was covered with a blanket due to the severity of the fever he was experiencing. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, if only you would supplicate to Allah so that He would alleviate your suffering.' He said, 'Verily, the most severely tested among the people are the Prophets, then those who are most like them, then those who are most like them.'"

He informed him that the Prophet ﷺ came to visit Abdullah bin Thabit and found him defeated, so he shouted at him but he did not respond. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called him back and said, "We have been defeated on your behalf, O Abu Al-Rabi." The women began to wail and cry, so Ibn Atik silenced them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Leave them, for when calamity strikes, let them wail." They said, "What is the calamity, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Death."

Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon sick man to pay him a visit, and said to him, "Don't worry, Allah willing, (your sickness will be) an expiation for your sins." The man said, "No, it is but a fever that is boiling within an old man and will send him to his grave." On that, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Then yes, it is so."

There was a Jewish boy who used to serve the Prophet ﷺ . He fell ill, so the Prophet ﷺ visited him. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Say, 'I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that you are the Messenger of Allah.'" The boy looked at his father and his father told him to say what Muhammad is telling him. When the boy died, the Prophet ﷺ said, "Pray for your brother" or he said, "Pray for him."

The Prophet ﷺ rode a donkey having a saddle with a Fadakiyya velvet covering. He mounted me behind him and went to visit Saʿd bin 'Ubada, and that had been before the battle of Badr. The Prophet ﷺ proceeded till he passed by a gathering in which ʿAbdullah bin Ubai bin Salul was present, and that had been before ʿAbdullah embraced Islam. The gathering comprised of Muslims, polytheists, i.e., isolators and Jews. ʿAbdullah bin Rawaha was also present in that gathering. When dust raised by the donkey covered the gathering, ʿAbdullah bin Ubai covered his nose with his upper garment and said, "Do not trouble us with dust." The Prophet ﷺ greeted them, stopped and dismounted. Then he invited them to Allah (i.e., to embrace Islam) and recited to them some verses of the Holy Qur'an. On that, ʿAbdullah bin Ubai said, "O man ! There is nothing better than what you say if it is true. Do not trouble us with it in our gathering, but return to your house, and if somebody comes to you, teach him there." On that ʿAbdullah bin Rawaha said, Yes, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! Bring your teachings to our gathering, for we love that." So the Muslims, the pagans and the Jews started abusing each other till they were about to fight. The Prophet ﷺ kept on quietening them till they became calm. Thereupon the Prophet mounted his animal and proceeded till he entered upon Saʿd bin Ubada. He said to him "O Saʿd! Have you not heard what Abu Hubab (i.e., ʿAbdullah bin Ubai) said?" Saʿd said, 'O Allah's Apostle! Excuse and forgive him, for Allah has given you what He has given you. The people of this town (Medina decided unanimously to crown him and make him their chief by placing a turban on his head, but when that was prevented by the Truth which Allah had given you he (ʿAbdullah bin Ubai) was grieved out of jealously, and that was the reason which caused him to behave in the way you have seen."

Did you supplicate for anything or beg of Him about that? He said: Yes. I used to utter (these words): Impose punishment upon me earlier in this world, what Thou art going to impose upon me in the Hereafter. Thereupon Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Hallowed be Allah, you have neither the power nor forbearance to take upon yourself (the burden of His Punishment). Why did you not say this: O Allah, grant us good in the world and good in the Hereafter, and save us from the torment of Fire. He (the Holy Prophet) made this supplication (for him) and he was all right.
