Hadith 9242

حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ دَاوُدَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، عَنِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ , أَنَّهُ قَالَ : " مَرِضْتُ ، فَلَمْ يَعُدْنِي ابْنُ آدَمَ ، وَظَمِئْتُ ، فَلَمْ يَسْقِنِي ابْنُ آدَمَ . فَقُلْتُ : أَتَمْرَضُ يَا رَبِّ ؟ ! ، قَالَ : يَمْرَضُ الْعَبْدُ مِنْ عِبَادِي مِمَّنْ فِي الْأَرْضِ ، فَلَا يُعَادُ ، فَلَوْ عَادَهُ ، كَانَ مَا يَعُودُهُ لِي ، وَيَظْمَأُ فِي الْأَرْضِ ، فَلَا يُسْقَى ، فَلَوْ سُقِيَ كَانَ مَا سَقَاهُ لِي " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: Allah Almighty says, "I was ill but the son of Adam did not visit Me. I was thirsty but the son of Adam did not give Me water to drink." I said, "O Lord! Do You also become ill?" The reply was given: "When one of My servants on earth becomes ill and he is not visited, if My servant goes to visit him, he receives the same reward as if he had visited Me. And when one of My servants on earth is thirsty and is not given water, if someone gives him water, he receives the same reward as if he had given Me water."
