CLEANSING OF FEVER

1775

“The Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, visited Umm Saib and asked her, ‘What is the matter with you, Umm Saib, you are shivering.’ She answered, ‘It is a fever, may Allah not bless it.’ He told her, ‘Do not abuse fever, because it cleanses sins as a furnace cleanses dirt from iron.’"

Muslim with a chain up to Jabir who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
