Do not curse fever
[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon Umm al-Sa'ib, or Umm al-Musayyib, and said: "What is the matter with you, Umm al-Sa'ib—or Umm al-Musayyib—that you are trembling?" She said: “The fever; may Allah not bless it.” He said: "Do not curse fever, for it removes the sins of the children of Adam just as the bellows removes the dross of iron."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ دَخَلَ عَلَى أُمِّ السَّائِبِ أَوْ أُمِّ الْمُسَيَّبِ، فَقَالَ: «مَا لَكِ يَا أُمَّ السَّائِبِ أَوْ يَا أُمَّ الْمُسَيَّبِ تُزَفْزِفِينَ؟» قَالَتِ: الْحُمَّى، لاَ بَارَكَ اللَّهُ فِيهَا. فَقَالَ: «لاَ تَسُبِّي الْحُمَّى، فَإِنَّهَا تُذْهِبُ خَطَايَا بَنِي آدَمَ كَمَا يُذْهِبُ الْكِيرُ خَبَثَ الْحَدِيدِ».
