It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) regarding the saying of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic: "Not equal are those of the believers who sit (at home) without any disability," that he said: "These are people who, in the time of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), could not go out on jihad with him (peace and blessings be upon him) because of illnesses, pains and ailments, while some others were healthy; so the sick were more excused than the healthy."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Abu Nadrah (may Allah have mercy on him) except Abu Aqil al-Dawraqi, that is, Bashir bin Uqbah (may Allah have mercy on him)."
