Musnad Abi Ya'la 3512 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ visited a man
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَادَ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ : يَا خَالُ ، قُلْ : لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ ، فَقَالَ : خَالٌ أَمْ عَمٌّ ؟ قَالَ : لَا ، بَلْ خَالٌ ، وَقَالَ : خَيْرٌ لِي أَنْ أَقُولَهَا ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) visited a man of the Ansar who was ill and said to him: "O maternal uncle, say: 'La ilaha illallah' (There is none worthy of worship except Allah)." He asked: "(In relation to you) am I a maternal uncle or a paternal uncle?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No, rather you are a maternal uncle." He said: "Is it better for me to say this word?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes."
