[Machine] I entered upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and found some women with a hanging water skin from which water was dripping due to fever. So I said, "O Messenger of Allah, why don't you supplicate to Allah to relieve you from this?" He said, "Verily, the people with the most severe trials are the prophets, then those who are closest to them, then those who are closest to them."
دَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي نِسَاءٍ فَإِذَا سِقَاءٌ مُعَلَّقٌ يَقْطُرُ عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ لِلْحُمَّى فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَلَا تَدْعُو اللهَ أَنْ يَكْشِفَ عَنْكَ؟ قَالَ «إِنَّ أَشَدَّ النَّاسِ بَلَاءً الْأَنْبِيَاءُ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ»
