وَعَنْهُ أَيْضًا أَنَّ غُلامًا يَهُودِيًّا كَانَ يَضَعُ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَضُوءَهُ وَيُنَاوِلُهُ نَعْلَيْهِ، فَمَرِضَ فَأَتَاهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ وَأَبُوهُ قَاعِدٌ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((يَا فُلَانُ! قُلْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ))، فَنَظَرَ إِلَى أَبِيهِ، فَسَكَتَ أَبُوهُ، فَأَعَادَ عَلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَى أَبِيهِ، فَقَالَ أَبُوهُ: أَطِعْ أَبَا قَاسِمٍ، فَقَالَ الْغُلَامُ: أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ، فَخَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: ((الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَخْرَجَهُ بِي مِنَ النَّارِ))
It is also narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that a Jewish boy used to bring water for the ablution of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and would bring his shoes. He fell ill, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to visit him while his father was sitting at his bedside. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to the boy: O so-and-so! Say LĀ ILĀHA ILLALLĀH (There is no god but Allah). He looked towards his father, and his father remained silent. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) repeated his words. Again, he looked towards his father. This time, his father said: Obey Abul Qasim (peace and blessings be upon him). Hearing this, the boy said: ASH-HADU ALLĀ ILĀHA ILLALLĀH WA ANNAKA RASŪLULLĀH (I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that you are the Messenger of Allah). When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) left from there, he was saying: Praise be to Allah, Who saved him from Hellfire because of me.
