Whenever a lady suffering from fever was brought to Asma' bint Abu Bakr, she used to invoke Allah for her and then sprinkle some water on her body, at the chest and say, "Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to order us to abate fever with water."
أَنَّ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ كَانَتْ إِذَا أُتِيَتْ بِالْمَرْأَةِ قَدْ حُمَّتْ تَدْعُو لَهَا أَخَذَتِ الْمَاءَ فَصَبَّتْهُ بَيْنَهَا وَبَيْنَ جَيْبِهَا قَالَتْ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُنَا أَنْ نَبْرُدَهَا بِالْمَاءِ
