Whenever Messenger of Allah ﷺ became sick, he would recite Mu'awwidhat (Surat Al-Falaq and Surat An- Nas) and then blow his breath over his body. When he became seriously ill, I used to recite (these two Suras) and rub his hands over his body hoping for its blessings.

أَخْبَرَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْبَصْرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

قَالَتِ «اشْتَكَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَكَانَ يَقْرَأُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ بِالْمُعَوِّذَاتِ وَيَنْفُثُ فَلَمَّا اشْتَدَّ شَكْوُهُ كُنْتُ أَقْرَا عَلَيْهِ وَأَنْفُثُ وَأَمْسَحُ عَلَيْهِ بِيَدَيْهِ رَجَاءَ بَرَكَتِهَا»
