Musnad Ahmad 12586

Translation

✧ I entered with the Prophet ﷺ to visit Zayd b. Arqam, and he was complaining of pain in his eye. He said to him: O Zayd, if your sight were afflicted by what is in it, how would you deal with it? He said: In that case I would be patient and seek reward. He said: If your sight is afflicted by what is in it, and then you are patient and seek reward, you will surely meet Allah [Mighty and Majestic] with no sin upon you.
