Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Indeed, the Lord, glorified and exalted be He, says: 'By My might and majesty, I will not take a servant out of this world whom I intend to forgive until I have exacted from him every sin on his neck through illness in his body or restriction in his provision'"
Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: "No fatigue, illness, anxiety, sorrow, harm, or distress befalls a Muslim, even if it be the prick of a thorn, but that Allah expiates some of his sins because of it"
Amir al-Ram (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) mentioned illnesses and said: "When a believer is afflicted with an illness and then Allah restores him to health, it serves as an expiation for his past sins and a reminder for him in the future. As for the hypocrite, when he falls ill and then recovers, he is like a camel that its owners tie and then release, and it does not know why it was tied or why it was released." A man said: "O Messenger of Allah, what are illnesses? By Allah, I have never been ill." The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Leave us, for you are not one of us"
Yahya ibn Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that a man died during the time of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and someone said: "How fortunate he is, he died without being afflicted by illness." The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Woe to you! How do you know? If Allah had afflicted him with an illness, it might have expiated his sins"
Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "When a servant's sins become numerous and he has no deeds to expiate them, Allah afflicts him with sorrow to expiate them"
Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: "I visited the Prophet (ﷺ) while he was suffering from a severe fever. I touched him with my hand and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, you are suffering from a severe fever.' The Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'Yes, I suffer as much as two of you would suffer.' I said: 'That is because you have a double reward.' He said: 'Yes,' then he said: 'No Muslim is afflicted with any harm, whether it be an illness or anything else, but that Allah will expiate his sins because of it, just as a tree sheds its leaves'"
Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "When you visit a sick person, ask him to pray for you, for his supplication is like the supplication of the angels"
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "When Allah wills good for a servant, He hastens his punishment in this world. And when Allah wills evil for a servant, He withholds his punishment for his sin until he meets Him on the Day of Judgment"
Ata ibn Abi Rabah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: "Shall I show you a woman from the people of Paradise?" I said: "Yes." He said: "This black woman came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: 'I suffer from epilepsy and I become exposed, so pray to Allah for me.' The Prophet (ﷺ) said: 'If you wish, you can be patient and you will have Paradise, or if you wish, I will pray to Allah to heal you.' She said: 'I will be patient,' then she said: 'But I become exposed, so pray to Allah that I do not become exposed.' So he prayed for her"
Abdullah ibn Shakheer (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The son of Adam is represented alongside ninety-nine calamities. If the calamities miss him, he will fall into old age until he dies"
Ka'b ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The example of a believer is like a tender plant. The wind bends it sometimes and straightens it at other times until its time comes. And the example of a hypocrite is like a sturdy cedar tree that remains firm until it is uprooted all at once"
Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The example of a believer is like a plant that the wind keeps bending, and the believer continues to face trials. The example of a hypocrite is like a cedar tree that does not shake until it is uprooted"
Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "The Prophet (ﷺ) passed away between my chest and chin, so I do not dislike the severity of death for anyone after the Prophet (ﷺ)"
Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "I do not envy anyone for an easy death after what I saw of the severity of the death of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)"
Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) at the time of his death. He had a cup of water with him, and he dipped his hand into it, wiped his face, and said: 'O Allah, help me through the pangs of death and the agony of death'"

سنت سمجھ کر برداشت کیا کرنا، اس حالت میں بھی اللہ تعالیٰ سے راضی اور خوش رہ کر دنیا سے جانا اور
توجہ الی اللہ میں کچھ فرق نہ آنے دینا۔)
اس حدیث کی روایت ترمذی اور ابن ماجہ نے کی ہے۔
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The greatness of the reward is with the greatness of the trial. Indeed, when Allah loves a people, He tests them. Whoever is content, then for him is contentment, and whoever is displeased, then for him is displeasure"
Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The believer will continue to be tested in his soul, wealth, and children until he meets Allah without any sin"
Muhammad ibn Khalid al-Sulami reported from his father, from his grandfather (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "When a servant is destined for a rank by Allah that he cannot attain through his deeds, Allah tests him in his body, wealth, or children, then grants him patience until he reaches the rank destined for him by Allah"
Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "On the Day of Judgment, the people of ease will wish, when they see the reward given to those who endured trials, that their skins had been cut with scissors in the world"
Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) was asked: "Which people are tested the most severely?" He said: "The prophets, then the next best, then the next best. A person is tested according to his level of faith. If his faith is strong, his trial is severe, and if his faith is weak, his trial is light. A person will continue to be tested until he walks on the earth without any sin"
Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) visited Umm al-Sa'ib and said: "Why are you shivering?" She said: "It is the fever. May Allah not bless it." The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Do not curse the fever, for it removes the sins of the children of Adam just as the bellows remove impurities from iron"
Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that fever was mentioned in the presence of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and a man cursed it. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Do not curse it, for it removes sins just as fire removes impurities from iron"
Ali ibn Zayd reported from Umayyah that she asked Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) about the verse: "Whether you show what is within yourselves or conceal it, Allah will bring you to account for it" (Qur'an 2:284) and about the verse: "Whoever does evil will be recompensed for it" (Qur'an 4:123). Aisha said: "No one asked me about this since I asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). He said: 'This is about the servant being tested with fever, calamity, or even losing a commodity he places in his pocket, until Allah forgives the servant's sins as pure gold is purified in the furnace'"

(اس آیت سے معلوم ہو رہا ہے کہ آخرت میں دل میں چھپے ہوئے گناہوں کے خطرات اور
برے خیالات کا بھی حساب لیا جائے گا، اس سے بچنا بہت مشکل ہے) ایسا ہی دوسری آیت: ”مَنْ
يَعْمَلْ سُوْءًا يُجْزَ بِهٖ“۔ (سورۃ نساء، پ:5، ع:18، آیت نمبر:123)
دنیا میں جو کچھ برائی کی جائے گی (صغیرہ ہو یا کبیرہ ظاہر میں کئے ہوں یا چھپ کر آخرت میں)
اس کی سزا دی جائے گی (اس سے بھی بچنا بہت مشکل ہے)۔
یہ سن کر حضرت عائشہ رضی اللہ عنہا نے فرمایا کہ (جیسا تم کو ان آیتوں کے مفہوم کے بارے
میں شبہ ہوا ہے مجھے بھی اس کے متعلق شبہ ہوا تھا اور) میں نے اس کے متعلق حضور صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم
سے دریافت کیا تھا (حضور صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم اس کے متعلق مجھے جو جواب دئے تھے اس سے مجھے
تسکین ہوگئی تھی) اس وقت سے آج تک کوئی مجھ سے ان آیتوں کے متعلق (ایسا شبہ) دریافت نہیں
کیا (آج تم ہی ہو کہ ان آیتوں کے متعلق اپنے شبہ کو مجھ سے دریافت کر رہی ہو، جو جواب مجھ کو حضور
صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم دئے تھے وہ جواب میں تم کو سناتی ہوں سنو! ان دونوں آیتوں کا مصداق تم سمجھ رہی
ہو کہ آخرت میں ہوگا، نہیں گناہوں کے) جو خطرات تمہارے دل میں گزرتے ہیں یا چھوٹی بڑی جو
برائی تم کرتے ہو، اس کا بدلہ دنیا ہی میں اس طرح دیا جائے گا کہ بیماریوں میں بخار میں تکلیف و رنج
میں مبتلا ہوں گے یا کوئی چیز تم نے جیب میں رکھی تھی (اس کو کسی نے چرا لیا) کہیں گر گئی اس سے جو
رنج ہوگا ان سب کی وجہ سے (دل میں گناہوں کے جو خطرات ہیں، یا چھوٹے بڑے جو گناہ ہیں وہ
سب ان مذکورہ پریشانیوں سے دنیا ہی میں مٹائے جاتے ہیں اور مذکورہ آیتوں کے جو مصداق ہیں)
ان کو ایسا پاک کیا جاتا ہے جیسے خالص سرخ سونا بھٹی سے صاف ہو کر نکلتا ہے۔ (خلاصہ یہ ہے کہ تم
سمجھ رہی ہو کہ آخرت میں ان گناہوں کی سزا دی جائے گی، نہیں بلکہ دنیا ہی میں ان کی سزا دے کر
پاک و صاف کر دیتے ہیں اور دونوں آیتوں سے یہی مراد ہے۔)
اس حدیث کی روایت ترمذی نے کی ہے۔
Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "No calamity befalls a servant, whether minor or major, except due to a sin, and what Allah forgives is greater." Then he recited: "Whatever misfortune befalls you is because of what your hands have earned, and He pardons much" (Qur'an 42:30)
Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "If one of you is afflicted with fever, then fever is a piece of the Fire. Let him extinguish it with water by standing in a flowing river, facing the current, and saying: 'In the name of Allah, O Allah, cure Your servant and confirm the truth of Your Messenger.' This should be done after the Fajr prayer before sunrise. He should immerse himself three times for three days. If he is not cured in three days, then five, and if not in five, then seven, and if not in seven, then nine. It rarely exceeds nine days, by the permission of Allah, the Exalted"

(علاج کی تفصیل یہ ہے کہ) (1) یہ عمل صبح کی نماز کے بعد سورج نکلنے سے قبل کرے اور نہر
میں 3 غوطے لگائے اور تین دن تک اسی طرح عمل جاری رکھے اگر تین دن کے اس عمل سے بخار دور
نہ ہو تو پانچ دن تک ایسے ہی نہر میں غوطے لگاتا جائے اگر پانچ دن کے اس عمل سے بخار دور نہ ہو تو
سات دن تک اسی طرح عمل کرتا رہے اور اگر سات دن کے غسل سے بھی بخار کم نہ ہو تو نو دن تک اسی
طرح عمل کرتا رہے اللہ تعالیٰ کے حکم سے غالباً بخار نو دن تک یہ عمل کرنے سے رک جائے گا اور پھر
نہ آئے گا (اگر ڈاکٹری علاج نکلنے سے پہلے یونانی طبیبوں کے عہد میں سخت بخار کے وقت یہ کہا جاتا
تھا کہ سر پر پانی کی پٹی یا برف کی پٹی رکھو تو اس وقت حدیث میں جو گفتگو ہو رہی ہے ویسی ہی اس
وقت بھی چہ میگوئیاں ہوتیں مگر اب ڈاکٹری تجربہ سے معلوم ہوا کہ ہر قسم کے بخار کے شدت کے وقت
پانی کی یا برف کی پٹی رکھی جائے تو کوئی نقصان نہیں ہوتا بلکہ بیحد فائدہ ہوتا ہے ایسا ہی نور نبوت سے
مذکورہ جو علاج بتایا گیا ہے اس میں نا تجربہ کار طرح طرح کے شک پیدا کرتے ہیں اگر کوئی یہ عمل
کرے اس کا فائدہ خود اس کو معلوم ہو جائے گا۔) اس حدیث کی روایت ترمذی نے کی ہے۔

اس حدیث کی روایت بخاری نے کی ہے۔
Abdullah ibn Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "When a servant is engaged in a good act of worship and then falls ill, the angel assigned to him is told: 'Record for him the same deeds he used to do when he was healthy until I release him or take him to Me'"
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "When a Muslim is afflicted with a trial in his body, the angel assigned to him is told: 'Record for him the good deeds he used to do. If he recovers, he is cleansed and purified, and if he dies, he is forgiven and shown mercy'"
Shaddad ibn Aws and al-Sunabihi (may Allah be pleased with them) reported that they visited a sick man and asked him: "How are you feeling?" He replied: "I am feeling well by the grace of Allah." Shaddad said: "Be glad, for your sins are being expiated and your faults are being removed. I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: 'Allah, the Exalted, says: If I afflict a believing servant of Mine and he praises Me for the affliction, he will rise from his bed as sinless as the day his mother gave birth to him. The Lord, Blessed and Exalted, says: I have restrained My servant and tested him, so continue to record for him the deeds you used to record for him when he was healthy'"
