حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الْحَافِظُ أَنْبَأَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ نَاجِيَةَ ثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ وَهْبٍ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ قَالَ
لَمَّا كُفَّ بَصَرُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ إِنَّكَ إِنْ صَبَرْتَ لِي سَبْعًا لَمْ تُصَلِّ إِلَّا مُسْتَلْقِيًا تُومئُ إِيمَاءً دَاوَيْتُكَ فَبَرَأْتَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَغَيْرِهِمَا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ كُلٌّ يَقُولُ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ مُتُّ فِي هَذَا السَّبْعِ كَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ بِالصَّلَاةِ؟ فَتَرَكَ عَيْنَهُ وَلَمْ يُدَاوِهَاسكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص

✧ When Ibn Abbas lost his sight, a man came to him and said to him, "If you endure for seven days without praying except lying on your back and making gestures, I will treat you and you will be cured, if Allah Almighty wills." So he sent to Aisha, Abu Hurayrah, and others among the companions of Muhammad ﷺ. Each of them said, "What do you think? If I die within these seven days, how will you handle the prayer?" So he left his eye alone and did not treat it. Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in the Talkhis.
