اُردوEn
482- وبه: أن أسماء ابنة أبى بكر كانت إذا أتيت بالمرأة قد حمت تدعو لها، أخذت الماء فصبته بينها وبين جيبها، وقالت: إن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كان يأمرنا أن نبردها بالماء.
And with the same chain of narration, it is narrated from Sayyida Asma bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with her) that when a woman suffering from fever was brought to her, she would supplicate for her, call for water, then pour it down the middle of her collar, and say: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded us to cool it (the fever) with water.

➋ It is Sunnah to supplicate (make du'a) for the sick person.
➌ It is permissible to ask a pious person to supplicate and to seek blessing (tabarruk) from him.
➍ The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was sent as a mercy to the worlds, and it should be remembered that this is his exclusive attribute in which no one else shares with him.
➎ Through supplication (du'a), Allah Most High averts calamities. See also: [الموطأ حديث سابق : 254، البخاري 5723، ومسلم 220/79]
