Jami' at-Tirmidhi 3431

Translation

that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Whoever sees a person ˹afflicted with trials˺ and says: ‘All praise is due to Allah Who saved me from that which He has afflicted you with, and blessed me greatly over many of those whom He has created,’ except that he shall be saved from that affliction for as long as he lives.”

Notes

• Abū ʿĪsá said: this ḥadīth is gharīb (solitary), in the section from Abū Hurayrah and ʿAmr b. Dīnār, Qahrmān of the family of al-Zubayr is a Baṣran shaykh and he is not strong in ḥadīth. He has solitary narrations in ḥadīth from Sālim b. ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAmr. It is narrated from Abū Jaʿfar Muḥammad b. ʿAlī that he said, if someone sees a person ˹afflicted with trials˺ then he should seek refuge from it and he should say ˹this duʿāʾ˺ within himself so that the person ˹afflicted with trials˺ doesn't hear him.

• قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَعَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ قَهْرَمَانُ آلِ الزُّبَيْرِ هُوَ شَيْخٌ بَصْرِيٌ وَلَيْسَ هُوَ بِالْقَوِيِّ فِي الْحَدِيثِ وَقَدْ تَفَرَّدَ بِأَحَادِيثَ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِذَا رَأَى صَاحِبَ بَلاَءٍ فَتَعَوَّذَ مِنْهُ يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ فِي نَفْسِهِ وَلاَ يُسْمِعُ صَاحِبَ الْبَلاَءِ
