“Pray to Allah to heal me.” He said: “If you wish to store your reward for the Hereafter, that is better, or if you wish, I will supplicate for you.” He said: “Supplicate.” So he told him to perform ablution and do it well, and to pray two Rak’ah, and to say this supplication: “Allahumma inni as’aluka wa atawajjahu ilaika bimuhammadin nabiyyir-rahmah. Ya Muhammadu inni qad tawajjahtu bika ila rabbi fi hajati hadhihi lituqda. Allahumma fashaffi’hu fiya (O Allah, I ask of You and I turn my face towards You by virtue of the intercession of Muhammad the Prophet of mercy. O Muhammad, I have turned to my Lord by virtue of your intercession concerning this need of mine so that it may be met. O Allah, accept his intercession concerning me)”. (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1385)  

أَنَّ رَجُلًا ضَرِيرَ الْبَصَرِ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يُعَافِيَنِي قَالَ إِنْ شِئْتَ دَعَوْتُ لَكَ وَإِنْ شِئْتَ أَخَّرْتُ ذَاكَ فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ فَقَالَ ادْعُهُ فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ فَيُحْسِنَ وُضُوءَهُ وَيُصَلِّيَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَيَدْعُوَ بِهَذَا الدُّعَاءِ اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ وَأَتَوَجَّهُ إِلَيْكَ بِنَبِيِّكَ مُحَمَّدٍ نَبِيِّ الرَّحْمَةِ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنِّي تَوَجَّهْتُ بِكَ إِلَى رَبِّي فِي حَاجَتِي هَذِهِ فَتَقْضِي لِي اللهُمَّ شَفِّعْهُ فِيَّ  

[Machine] A blind man came to the Prophet (PBUH) and said, "O Prophet of Allah, ask Allah to cure me." The Prophet (PBUH) said, "If you wish, I can delay that, as it would be better for your Hereafter, and if you wish, I can pray for you." The blind man said, "No, I would rather you pray for me." The Prophet (PBUH) instructed him to perform ablution, pray two units of prayer, and then make this supplication: "O Allah, I ask You and turn to You through Your Prophet Muhammad, the Prophet of mercy. O Muhammad, I ask for your intercession with my Lord for my need to be fulfilled and for you to intercede for me." The blind man repeated this supplication multiple times, then he said, "Afterwards, I expect that His intercession for me will be effective." The man did as he was instructed, and he was cured.  

أَنَّ رَجُلًا ضَرِيرًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يُعَافِيَنِي فَقَالَ إِنْ شِئْتَ أَخَّرْتُ ذَلِكَ فَهُوَ أَفْضَلُ لِآخِرَتِكَ وَإِنْ شِئْتَ دَعَوْتُ لَكَ قَالَ لَا بَلْ ادْعُ اللهَ لِي فَأَمَرَهُ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ وَأَنْ يُصَلِّيَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَأَنْ يَدْعُوَ بِهَذَا الدُّعَاءِ اللهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ وَأَتَوَجَّهُ إِلَيْكَ بِنَبِيِّكَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ نَبِيِّ الرَّحْمَةِ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنِّي أَتَوَجَّهُ بِكَ إِلَى رَبِّي فِي حَاجَتِي هَذِهِ فَتَقْضِي وَتُشَفِّعُنِي فِيهِ وَتُشَفِّعُهُ فِيَّ قَالَ فَكَانَ يَقُولُ هَذَا مِرَارًا ثُمَّ قَالَ بَعْدُ أَحْسِبُ أَنَّ فِيهَا أَنْ تُشَفِّعَنِي فِيهِ قَالَ فَفَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ فَبَرَأَ  

[Machine] "A man came to the Prophet ﷺ whose sight had been lost, and he mentioned the incident."  

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَدْ ذَهَبَ بَصَرُهُ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ  

[Machine] He said, "I performed Hajj during the time of Uthman ibn Affan, and I sat in the Prophet's Mosque. Then a man started talking and said, 'We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ one day, and a man came and prayed at this pillar. He rushed before completing his prayer and then left.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'If this man were to die, he would die in a state of disobedience. There is no obligation in the religion for him. The man shortens his prayer and completes it.' So I asked who the man was, and it was said, 'Uthman ibn Hunayf al-Ansari.'"  

قَالَ حَجَجْتُ زَمَانَ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ فَجَلَسْتُ فِي مَسْجِدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَإِذَا رَجُلٌ يُحَدِّثُهُمْ قَالَ كُنَّا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمًا فَأَقْبَلَ رَجُلٌ فَصَلَّى فِي هَذَا الْعَمُودِ فَعَجَّلَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُتِمَّ صَلَاتَهُ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ هَذَا لَوْ مَاتَ لَمَاتَ وَلَيْسَ مِنَ الدِّينِ عَلَى شَيْءٍ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيُخَفِّفُ صَلَاتَهُ وَيُتِمُّهَا قَالَ فَسَأَلْتُ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ مَنْ هُوَ؟ فَقِيلَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ حُنَيْفٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ
