الكبرى للنسائي:٧٥٣٠أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ خَشْرَمٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى يَعْنِي ابْنَ يُونُسَ عَنْ أَيْمَنَ بْنِ نَابِلٍ عَنْ أُمِّ كُلْثُومٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا مَرِضَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ وُضِعَتِ الْبُرْمَةُ عَلَى النَّارِ فَلَمْ تَرْفَعْ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ عَلَى أَحَدِ طَرَفَيْهِ»
