Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 11121 — Reports on the reward for fever
١١١٢١ - حدثنا وكيع عن موسى بن عبيدة عن علقمة بن مرثد عن حفص بن (عبيد اللَّه) (١) عن أبي هريرة قال: ذكرت الحمى عند رسول اللَّه ﷺ فسبها رجل فقال له: "لا تسبها فإنها (تنفي) (٢) (الذنوب كما (تنفي)) (٣) (٤) النار خَبَثَ الحديد" (٥).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that fever was mentioned in the presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and a man reviled it. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "Do not revile fever, for it cleanses away sins just as fire cleanses away the dross of iron."
