Hadith 27476
٢٧٤٧٦ - حدثنا جرير عن مغيرة قال: كان علي إذا سئل وهو مريض، كيف أنت؟ قال: بشر، وقرأ هذه الآية: ﴿وَنَبْلُوكُمْ بِالشَّرِّ وَالْخَيْرِ فِتْنَةً﴾ [الأنبياء: ٣٥] (١).
Hazrat Mughira narrates that when Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) was asked about his condition during illness, he would reply, "In a very bad state," and would recite this verse: Translation: "And We will test you with good and evil."
