When Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Medina, Abu Bakr and Bilal got fever, and I went to both of them and said, "O my father, how do you feel? O Bilal, how do you feel?" Whenever Abu Bakr's fever got worse, he would say, "Every man will meet his death once in one morning while he will be among his family, for death is really nearer to him than his leather shoe laces (to his feet)." And whenever fever deserted Bilal, he would say aloud, "Would that I know whether I shall spend a night in the valley (of Mecca) with Idhkhir and Jalil (i.e. kinds of grass) around me, and whether I shall drink one day the water of Mijannah, and whether I shall see once again the hills of Shamah and Tafil?" Then I went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him of that. He said, "O Allah, make us love Medina as much as or more than we used to love Mecca, O Allah, make it healthy and bless its Sa' and Mud (i.e. measures), and take away its fever to Al-Juhfa."  

أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ لَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ وُعِكَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَبِلاَلٌ قَالَتْ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِمَا فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَتِ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ وَيَا بِلاَلُ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ قَالَتْ فَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِذَا أَخَذَتْهُ الْحُمَّى يَقُولُ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مُصَبَّحٌ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَالْمَوْتُ أَدْنَى مِنْ شِرَاكِ نَعْلِهِ وَكَانَ بِلاَلٌ إِذَا أَقْلَعَ عَنْهُ الْحُمَّى يَرْفَعُ عَقِيرَتَهُ وَيَقُولُ أَلاَ لَيْتَ شِعْرِي هَلْ أَبِيتَنَّ لَيْلَةً بِوَادٍ وَحَوْلِي إِذْخِرٌ وَجَلِيلُ وَهَلْ أَرِدَنْ يَوْمًا مِيَاهَ مَجَنَّةٍ وَهَلْ يَبْدُوَنْ لِي شَامَةٌ وَطَفِيلُ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَجِئْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ كَحُبِّنَا مَكَّةَ أَوْ أَشَدَّ وَصَحِّحْهَا وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِهَا وَمُدِّهَا وَانْقُلْ حُمَّاهَا فَاجْعَلْهَا بِالْجُحْفَةِ  

When Messenger of Allah ﷺ emigrated to Medina, Abu Bakr and Bilal got a fever. I entered upon them and asked, "O my father! How are you? O Bilal! How are you?" Whenever fever attacked Abu Bakr, he would recite the following poetic verses: 'Everybody is staying alive among his people, yet death is nearer to him than his shoe laces." And whenever the fever deserted Bilal, he would recite (two poetic lines): 'Would that I could stay overnight in a valley wherein I would be surrounded by Idhkhir and Jalil (two kinds of good smelling grass). Would that one day I would drink of the water of Majinna and would that Shama and Tafil (two mountains at Mecca) would appear to me.' Then I came and informed Messenger of Allah ﷺ about that, whereupon he said, "O Allah! Make us love Medina as much or more than we love Mecca. O Allah! Make it healthy and bless its Mudd and Sa for us, and take away its fever and put it in Al Juhfa."  

أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ لَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ وُعِكَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَبِلاَلٌ ؓ قَالَتْ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِمَا قُلْتُ يَا أَبَتِ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ وَيَا بِلاَلُ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ قَالَتْ وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِذَا أَخَذَتْهُ الْحُمَّى يَقُولُ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مُصَبَّحٌ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَالْمَوْتُ أَدْنَى مِنْ شِرَاكِ نَعْلِهِ وَكَانَ بِلاَلٌ إِذَا أَقْلَعَتْ عَنْهُ يَقُولُ أَلاَ لَيْتَ شِعْرِي هَلْ أَبِيتَنَّ لَيْلَةً بَوَادٍ وَحَوْلِي إِذْخِرٌ وَجَلِيلُ وَهَلْ أَرِدَنْ يَوْمًا مِيَاهَ مِجَنَّةٍ وَهَلْ تَبْدُوَنْ لِي شَامَةٌ وَطَفِيلُ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَجِئْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ كَحُبِّنَا مَكَّةَ أَوْ أَشَدَّ اللَّهُمَّ وَصَحِّحْهَا وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِي مُدِّهَا وَصَاعِهَا وَانْقُلْ حُمَّاهَا فَاجْعَلْهَا بِالْجُحْفَةِ  

When Messenger of Allah ﷺ emigrated to Medina, Abu Bakr and Bilal had a fever. I entered upon them and said, "O my father! How are you? O Bilal! How are you?"

Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa from his father that A'isha, umm al-muminin said, "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Madina, Abu Bakr and Bilal came down with a fever. I visited them and said, 'Father, how are you? Bilal, how are you?'" She continued, "When Abu Bakr's fever worsened he would say, 'Every man is struck down among his people in the morning - death is nearer than the strap of his sandal.'" When it left Bilal, he raised his voice and said, 'Would that I knew whether I will spend a night at the valley of Makka with the idhkhir herb and jalil herb around me. Will I go one day to the waters of Majinna? Will the mountains of Shama and Tafil appear to me?' " ' A'isha continued, "I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him. He said, 'O Allah! Make us love Madina as much as we love Makka or even more. Make it sound and bless us in our sa and mudd. Remove its fever and put it in al-Juhfa.' "  

أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ لَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ وُعِكَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَبِلاَلٌ قَالَتْ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِمَا فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَتِ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ وَيَا بِلاَلُ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ قَالَتْ فَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِذَا أَخَذَتْهُ الْحُمَّى يَقُولُ كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مُصَبَّحٌ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَالْمَوْتُ أَدْنَى مِنْ شِرَاكِ نَعْلِهِ وَكَانَ بِلاَلٌ إِذَا أُقْلِعَ عَنْهُ يَرْفَعُ عَقِيرَتَهُ فَيَقُولُ أَلاَ لَيْتَ شِعْرِي هَلْ أَبِيتَنَّ لَيْلَةً بِوَادٍ وَحَوْلِي إِذْخِرٌ وَجَلِيلُ وَهَلْ أَرِدَنْ يَوْمًا مِيَاهَ مَجَنَّةٍ وَهَلْ يَبْدُوَنْ لِي شَامَةٌ وَطَفِيلُ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَجِئْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ كَحُبِّنَا مَكَّةَ أَوْ أَشَدَّ وَصَحِّحْهَا وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِهَا وَمُدِّهَا وَانْقُلْ حُمَّاهَا فَاجْعَلْهَا بِالْجُحْفَةِ  

[Machine] When the Prophet ﷺ arrived in Medina, his companions, Abu Bakr, 'Amir ibn Fuhayrah, who was a slave of Abu Bakr, and Bilal complained about their health. Aisha, the Prophet's wife, sought his permission to visit them, and he allowed her. She asked Abu Bakr how he was feeling, and he responded [with a verse from Al-Bahr al-Rajz], "Every person wakes up fine with his family, and death is closer than the strap of his sandal." She asked 'Amir, and he replied [with a verse from Al-Bahr al-Rajz], "I found death before experiencing its taste. The coward's death is coming upon him from above." She then asked Bilal, and he said [with a verse from Al-Bahr al-Tawil], "I wish my hair would shelter me for a night when there is bounty all around me." Aisha then informed the Prophet ﷺ of their words, and he looked at the sky and said, "O Allah, make Medina beloved to us as You made Mecca beloved to us. And O Allah, make it more abundant in blessings and prosperity for us. And let its epidemic be transferred to Al-Mahya'ah, which is Al-Juhfah, as they claim."  

لَمَّا قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ اشْتَكَى أَصْحَابُهُ وَاشْتَكَى أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعَامِرُ بْنُ فُهَيْرَةَ مَوْلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَبِلَالٌ فَاسْتَأْذَنَتْ عَائِشَةُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي عِيَادَتِهِمْ فَأَذِنَ لَهَا فَقَالَتْ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ؟ فَقَالَ[البحر الرجز]كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مُصَبَّحٌ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَالْمَوْتُ أَدْنَى مِنْ شِرَاكِ نَعْلِهِوَسَأَلَتْ عَامِرًا فَقَالَ[البحر الرجز]إِنِّي وَجَدْتُ الْمَوْتَ قَبْلَ ذَوْقِهِ إِنَّ الْجَبَانَ حَتْفُهُ مِنْ فَوْقِهِوَسَأَلَتْ بِلَالًا فَقَالَ[البحر الطويل]يَا لَيْتَ شِعْرِي هَلْ أَبِيتَنَّ لَيْلَةً بِفَجٍّ وَحَوْلِي إِذْخِرٌ وَجَلِيلُفَأَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرَتْهُ بِقَوْلِهِمْ فَنَظَرَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَقَالَ اللهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ كَمَا حَبَّبْتَ إِلَيْنَا مَكَّةَ وَأَشَدَّ اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِهَا وَفِي مُدِّهَا وَانْقُلْ وَبَاءَهَا إِلَى مَهْيَعَةَ وَهِيَ الْجُحْفَةُ كَمَا زَعَمُوا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived in Medina and it was mentioned that fever had affected them. Abu Bakr fell ill and whenever he was affected by fever, he would say, "Every person is awakening among his family, and death is closer than the straps of his sandals." Bilal, when afflicted with fever, would say, "Oh, would that my hair were made into a pillow for me to spend a night in a valley with abundant water, and would there be a wound that appears on me and heals!" O Allah, curse Utabah bin Rabee'ah, Shaybah bin Rabee'ah, and Umayyah bin Khalf as they expelled us from Makkah. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw what they went through, he said, "O Allah, make us love Medina as much as we love Makkah, or even more. O Allah, bless us in its measuring utensil (i.e., food), its length, and extend its boundaries. And transfer its fever to Ju'fah." Consequently, newborns began to be born in Ju'fah and they would not experience sleep until fever afflicted them.  

قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ وَهِيَ وَبِيئَةٌ ذُكِرَ أَنَّ الْحُمَّى صَرَعَتْهُمْ فَمَرِضَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَكَانَ إِذَا أَخَذَتْهُ الْحُمَّى يَقُولُ[البحر الرجز]كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مُصَبَّحٌ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَالْمَوْتُ أَدْنَى مِنْ شِرَاكِ نَعْلِهِقَالَتْ وَكَانَ بِلَالٌ إِذَا أَخَذَتْهُ الْحُمَّى يَقُولُ[البحر الطويل]أَلَا لَيْتَ شِعْرِي هَلْ أَبِيتَنَّ لَيْلَةً بِوَادٍ وَحَوْلِي إِذْخِرٌ وَجَلِيلُوَهَلْ أَرِدْنَ يَوْمًا مِيَاهَ مِجَنَّةٍ وَهَلْ يَبْدُوَنْ لِي شَامَةٌ وَطَفِيلُاللهُمَّ الْعَنْ عُتْبَةَ بْنَ رَبِيعَةَ وَشَيْبَةَ بْنَ رَبِيعَةَ وَأُمَيَّةَ بْنَ خَلَفٍ كَمَا أَخْرَجُونَا مِنْ مَكَّةَ فَلَمَّا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا لَقُوا قَالَ اللهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ كَحُبِّنَا مَكَّةَ أَوْ أَشَدَّ اللهُمَّ صَحِّحْهَا وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِهَا وَمُدِّهَا وَانْقُلْ حُمَّاهَا إِلَى الْجُحْفَةِ قَالَ فَكَانَ الْمَوْلُودُ يُولَدُ بِالْجُحْفَةِ فَمَا يَبْلُغُ الْحُلُمَ حَتَّى تَصْرَعَهُ الْحُمَّى  

[Machine] We arrived at the city and it was muddy and filled with swamps. The family of Abu Bakr complained, so I sought permission from the Prophet ﷺ to visit Abu Bakr. He granted me permission, so I went to him and said, "O father, how do you find yourself?" He replied, "Everyone is happy with his family, and death is closer than his shoelaces." Then, I left and went to 'Amir ibn Fuhayrah and asked him, "O 'Amir, how do you find yourself?" He replied, "I found death before tasting it. Indeed, a coward dies before his time." Then, I went to Bilal and asked him, "O Bilal, how do you find yourself?" He said, "Oh, if only I knew if I will spend the night in a trap surrounded by enemies." Then, I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him. He said, "O Allah, bless us in our Saa' (measurement for dates) and bless us in our city. Make us love Madinah as You made us love Makkah, and transfer its epidemic to Khumm and Mahyah."  

قَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ وَهِيَ أَنْجَالٌ وَغَرْقَدٌ فَاشْتَكَى آلُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي عِيَادَةِ أَبِي فَأَذِنَ لِي فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَتِ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ؟ قَالَ[البحر الرجز]كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مُصَبَّحٌ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَالْمَوْتُ أَدْنَى مِنْ شِرَاكِ نَعْلِهِقَالَتْ قُلْتُ هَجَرَ وَاللهِ أَبِي ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُ عَامِرَ بْنَ فُهَيْرَةَ فَقُلْتُ أَيْ عَامِرُ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ؟ قَالَ[البحر الرجز]إِنِّي وَجَدْتُ الْمَوْتَ قَبْلَ ذَوْقِهِ إِنَّ الْجَبَانَ حَتْفُهُ مِنْ فُوقِهِقَالَتْ فَأَتَيْتُ بِلَالًا فَقُلْتُ يَا بِلَالُ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ؟ فَقَالَ[البحر الطويل]أَلَا لَيْتَ شِعْرِي هَلْ أَبِيتَنَّ لَيْلَةً بِفَخٍّ وَحَوْلِي إِذْخِرٌ وَجَلِيلُفَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ قَالَ اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِنَا وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِي مُدِّنَا وَحَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ كَمَا حَبَّبْتَ إِلَيْنَا مَكَّةَ وَانْقُلْ عَنَّا وَبَاءَهَا إِلَى خُمٍّ وَمَهْيَعَةَ  

[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived in Medina, his companions, Abu Bakr, Aamir bin Fuhayra, a freed slave of Abu Bakr, and Bilal, complained about their health to Aisha, the wife of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . She sought permission from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to visit them and he granted her permission. She asked Abu Bakr, "How do you find yourself?" He replied, "Like a sea that is stormy. Every person is a source of trouble for his family, and death is closer to me than the straps of my sandals." She then asked Aamir bin Fuhayra and he replied, "I have seen death before tasting it. Indeed, a coward's death hangs over him like a cloud." Aisha also asked Bilal, and he replied, "I wish my hair would stay at night in a valley surrounded by lofty mountains, and that I would have access to the water of a paradise, and that no scars would appear on my body." Aisha then went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him of what they said. He looked up at the sky and said, "O Allah, make us love Medina, and bless us in its measured and unmeasured portions, and transfer its fever to Mahya' (a place) while it remains the Juhfa."  

لَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ اشْتَكَى أَصْحَابُهُ وَاشْتَكَى أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعَامِرُ بْنُ فُهَيْرَةَ مَوْلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَبِلَالٌ فَاسْتَأْذَنَتْ عَائِشَةُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي عِيَادَتِهِمْ فَأَذِنَ لَهَا فَقَالَتْ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ؟ قَالَ [البحر الرجز] كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مُصَبَّحٌ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَالْمَوْتُ أَدْنَى مِنْ شِرَاكِ نَعْلِهِ وَسَأَلْتُ عَامِرَ بْنَ فُهَيْرَةَ فَقَالَ [البحر الرجز] قَدْ رَأَيْتُ الْمَوْتَ قَبْلَ ذَوْقِهْ إِنَّ الْجَبَانَ حَتْفُهُ مِنْ فَوْقِهْ وَسَأَلْتُ بِلَالًا فَقَالَ [البحر الطويل] أَلَا لَيْتَ شِعْرِي هَلْ أَبِيتَنَّ لَيْلَةً بِوَادٍ وَحَوْلِي إِذْخِرٌ وَجَلِيلُ وَهَلْ أَرِدَنَّ يَوْمًا مِيَاهَ مِجَنَّةٍ وَهَلْ يَبْدُوَنْ لِي شَامَةٌ وَطَفِيلُ فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِقَوْلِهِمْ فَنَظَرَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ اللهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِهَا وَمُدِّهَا وَانْقُلْ حُمَّاهَا إِلَى مَهْيَعَةَ وَهِيَ الْجُحْفَةُ»  

When Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Medina, Abu Bakr and Bilal got fever, and I went to both of them and said, "O my father, how do you feel? O Bilal, how do you feel?" Whenever Abu Bakr's fever got worse, he would say, "Every man will meet his death once in one morning while he will be among his family, for death is really nearer to him than his leather shoe laces (to his feet)." And whenever fever deserted Bilal, he would say aloud, "Would that I know whether I shall spend a night in the valley (of Mecca) with Idhkhir and Jalil (i.e. kinds of grass) around me, and whether I shall drink one day the water of Mijannah, and whether I shall see once again the hills of Shamah and Tafil?" Then I went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him of that. He said, "O Allah, make us love Medina as much as or more than we used to love Mecca, O Allah, make it healthy and bless its Sa' and Mud (i.e. measures), and take away its fever to Al-Juhfa." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3926)
