It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that Abu Talib fell ill, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to visit him. He said to him (peace and blessings be upon him): "O my nephew, supplicate to that god of yours whom you worship that he cure me." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) supplicated: "O Allah, cure my uncle." Thereupon Abu Talib stood up as though he had been released from a hobbling rope. Then he said: "O my nephew, indeed that god of yours whom you worship does obey you." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "And you, O my uncle, if you obey Allah, He will surely obey you (grant your requests) too."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Thabit except al-Haytham bin Jammaz, nor did anyone narrate it from al-Haytham except Sharik bin Abd al-Majid al-Hanafi, and Uqbah bin Mukram is alone in narrating it."
