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)  

لَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ وُعِكَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَبِلَالٌ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِمَا فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ؟ وَيَا بِلَالُ كَيْفَ تَجِدُكَ؟ قَالَتْ كَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِذَا أَخَذَتْهُ الْحُمَّى يَقُولُ [البحر الرجز] كُلُّ امْرِئٍ مُصَبَّحٌ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَالْمَوْتُ أَدْنَى مِنْ شِرَاكِ نَعْلِهِ وَكَانَ بِلَالٌ إِذَا أُقْلِعَ عَنْهُ يَرْفَعُ عَقِيرَتَهُ وَيَقُولُ لَهَا [البحر الطويل] أَلَا لَيْتَ شِعْرِي هَلْ أَبِيتَنَّ لَيْلَةً بِوَادٍ وَحَوْلِي إِذْخِرٌ وَجَلِيلُ وَهَلْ أَرِدَنَّ يَوْمًا مِيَاهَ مِجَنَّةٍ؟ وَهَلْ يَبْدُوَنَّ لِي شَامَةٌ وَطَفِيلُ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَجِئْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ كَحُبِّنَا مَكَّةَ أَوْ أَشَدَّ وَصَحِّحْهَا» قَالَ حَارِثَةُ فِي حَدِيثَةِ لَنَا «وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِهَا وَمُدِّهَا وَانْقُلْ حُمَّاهَا وَاجْعَلْهَا بِالْجُحْفَةِ»  

[Machine] She said, "We went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ concerning women who have recurring menstruation. And then we saw a man who was covered with a blanket due to the severity of the fever he was experiencing. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, if only you would supplicate to Allah so that He would alleviate your suffering.' He said, 'Verily, the most severely tested among the people are the Prophets, then those who are most like them, then those who are most like them.'"  

أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي نِسَاءٍ نَعُودُهُ فَإِذَا بِسِقَاءٍ مُغَطًّى عَلَيْهِ مِنْ شِدَّةِ مَا يَجِدُ مِنَ الْحُمَّى قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَوْ دَعَوْتَ اللهَ فَكَشَفَ عَنْكَ قَالَ «إِنَّ مِنْ أَشَدِّ النَّاسِ بَلَاءً الْأَنْبِيَاءُ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ»
