حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْأَسْفَاطِيُّ ثنا أَبُو عَوْنٍ الزِّيَادِيُّ ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْمِنْقَرِيُّ عَنْ مَخْلَدِ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ شُرَحْبِيلَ عَنْ جَدِّهِ شُرَحْبِيلَ قَالَ

كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِذْ جَاءَهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ طَوِيلٌ أَبْيَضُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ بِهِ حُمَّى تَفُورُ تُزِيرُهُ الْقُبُورَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ بِهِ حُمَّى تَفُورُ هِيَ لَهُ كَفَّارَةٌ وَطَهُورٌ» فَأَعَادَهَا وَأَعَادَهَا عَلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأَعَادَهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ أَوْ أَرْبَعَةً قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَمَّا إِذَا أَبِيتَ فَهِيَ كَمَا تَقُولُ وَمَا قَضَى اللهُ فَهُوَ كَائِنٌ» قَالَ فَمَا أَمْسَى مِنَ الْغَدِ إِلَّا مَيِّتًا

✧ We were sitting with the Prophet ﷺ when a tall, fair-complexioned bedouin came to him and said: “O Messenger of God, an old man with a boiling fever that will bring him to the graves.” The Messenger of God ﷺ said: “An old man with a boiling fever — it is an expiation and purification for him.” He repeated it, and the Prophet ﷺ repeated his response; he repeated it three or four times. The Prophet ﷺ said: “Since you insist, it is as you say, and what God has decreed will come to pass.” He said: By the next evening he was dead.
