Home Hadith Hadith 5462
The Prophet (ﷺ) came to me while I was ill. He performed ablution and threw the remaining water on me
(or said, "Pour it on him) " When I came to my senses I said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! I have no son or
father to be my heir, so how will be my inheritance?" Then the Verse of inheritance was revealed.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 75, Hadith 36

Whenever Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) paid a visit to a patient, or a patient was brought to him, he used to invoke
Allah, saying, "Take away the disease, O the Lord of the people! Cure him as You are the One Who
cures. There is no cure but Yours, a cure that leaves no disease."

When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) emigrated to Medina, Abu Bakr and Bilal had a fever. I entered upon them and
said, "O my father! How are you? O Bilal! How are you?" Whenever Abu Bakr got the fever he used
to say, "Everybody is staying alive with his people, yet death is nearer to him than his shoe laces."
And when fever deserted Bilal, he would recite (two poetic verses): "Would that I could stay
overnight in a valley wherein I would be surrounded by Idhkhir and Jalil (two kinds of good smelling
grass). Would that one day I could drink of the water of Majinna, and would that Shama and Tafil
(two mountains at Mecca) would appear to me!" I went to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and informed him about
that. He said, "O Allah! Make us love Medina as much or more than we love Mecca, and make it
healthy, and bless its Sa and its Mudd, and take away its fever and put it in Al-Juhfa." (See Hadith No
558) .
