English

Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) visited a Bedouin who was ill. Whenever he visited a sick person, he would say: "No harm, it is a purification, Allah willing." He said to him: "No harm, it is a purification, Allah willing." The Bedouin said: "No, until it boils over something big that the graves will visit." The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Then yes, if it is so."
