Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 3824

وَعَنْ سَلْمَانَ قَالَ : اسْتَأْذَنَتِ الْحُمَّى عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ لَهَا : " مَنْ أَنْتِ ؟ " فَقَالَتْ : أَنَا الْحُمَّى أَبْرِي اللَّحْمَ وَأَمُصُّ الدَّمَ قَالَ : " اذْهَبِي إِلَى أَهْلِ قُبَاءٍ " فَأَتَتْهُمْ فَجَاءُوا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَقَدِ اصْفَرَّتْ وُجُوهُهُمْ فَشَكَوُا الْحُمَّى إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَقَالَ : " مَا شِئْتُمْ ؟ إِنْ شِئْتُمْ دَعَوْتُ اللَّهَ فَدَفَعَهَا عَنْكُمْ وَإِنْ شِئْتُمْ تَرَكْتُمُوهَا وَأَسْقَطَتْ بَقِيَّةَ ذُنُوبِكُمْ ؟ " قَالُوا : بَلَى فَدَعْهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، وَفِيهِ هِشَامُ بْنُ لَاحِقٍ وَثَّقَهُ النَّسَائِيُّ وَضَعَّفَهُ أَحْمَدُ وَابْنُ حِبَّانَ .
Sayyiduna Salman al-Farisi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The fever sought permission from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to enter. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked it: "Who are you?" It replied: "I am the fever; I wear away (or weaken) the flesh and suck the blood." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go to the people of Quba'." The fever went to those people. They came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with their faces turned yellow, and complained to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about the fever. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whatever you wish (will be so). If you wish, I will pray to Allah Almighty and He will remove it from you; and if you wish, leave it, and it will wipe out your remaining sins." The people said: "Yes! Leave it, O Messenger of Allah!"
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. Its chain contains a narrator, Hisham bin Lahiq, whom al-Nasa'i (may Allah have mercy on him) declared thiqah (trustworthy), while Ahmad and Ibn Hibban (may Allah have mercy on him) declared him da'if (weak).
