حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ حَدَّثَنَا زَبَّانُ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ
أَنَّهُ أَتَاهُ عَائِدًا، فَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ لِأَبِي بَعْدَ أَنْ سَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ: بِالصِّحَّةِ لَا بِالْوَجَعِ. ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: مَا يَزَالُ الْمَرْءُ الْمُسْلِمُ بِهِ الْمَلِيلَةُ وَالصُّدَاعُ، وَإِنَّ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْخَطَايَا لَأَعْظَمَ مِنْ أُحُدٍ، حَتَّى يَتْرُكَهُ وَمَا عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْخَطَايَا مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةٍ مِنْ خَرْدَلٍ

✧ That he came to visit him, and Abu al-Darda' said to my father after greeting him: "[You are here] with health, not with pain." He said that three times, then said: "I heard the Messenger of God ﷺ say: 'Fever and headache keep affecting the Muslim person, even though his sins are greater than Mount Uhud, until they leave him with no more sins upon him than the weight of a mustard seed.'"
