Musnad Abi Ya'la 3759 — the Prophet ﷺ visited a sick man
حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا خَالِدٌ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَادَ رَجُلًا قَدْ صَارَ مِثْلَ الْفَرْخِ الْمَنْتُوفِ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : بِمَ كُنْتَ تَدْعُو وَتَسْأَلُهُ ؟ قَالَ : كُنْتُ أَقُولُ : اللَّهُمَّ مَا كُنْتَ مُعَاقِبِي فِي الْآخِرَةِ فَعَجِّلْهُ لِي فِي الدُّنْيَا ، قَالَ : سُبْحَانَ اللهِ ! وَهَلْ تَسْتَطِيعُ ذَلِكَ ؟ فَهَلَّا قُلْتَ : اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّنَا آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ ، قَالَ : فَدَعَا اللهَ ، فَشَفَاهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) visited a sick man who (from severe weakness) had become as frail as a plucked chick. the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him: "What did you used to supplicate to Allah Almighty for, and what did you ask Him?" He said: I used to say: 'Allahumma ma kunta mu'aqibi fi al-akhirati fa-'ajjilhu li fi al-dunya' (O Allah, whatever punishment You would give me in the Hereafter, give it to me quickly in this world). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said (in astonishment, glorifying Allah): "Subhan Allah! Do you have the capacity and strength for that? Why did you not say: 'Rabbana atina fi al-dunya hasanatan wa fi al-akhirati hasanatan wa qina 'adhab al-nar' (Our Lord, give us good in this world and good in the Hereafter, and protect us from the punishment of the Fire)?" The narrator said: Then that man supplicated to Allah Almighty with this, and Allah granted him health and cure.
