It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that a woman came to the service of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) who used to have epileptic fits. She said, "O Messenger of Allah! Pray for me that He grants me healing." The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "If you wish, I will pray to Allah for your healing, and if you wish, endure this affliction with patience in this world and there will be no reckoning for you in the Hereafter." The woman said, "Then I will be patient so that there will be no reckoning for me."
