Hadith 24927

حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ , قَالَتْ : " كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي قُبِضَ فِيهِ ، يَنْفُثُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْمُعَوِّذَاتِ ، فَلَمَّا ثَقُلَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ ، جَعَلْتُ أَنْفُثُ عَلَيْهِ بِهِنَّ ، وَأَمْسَحُهُ بِيَدِ نَفْسِهِ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite the Mu'awwidhat and blow over himself. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) fell ill with the illness of his passing, I would hold his blessed hand and recite these words, then pass the Prophet’s (peace and blessings be upon him) hand over his body, so that the blessing of his hand would also be included.
