"أبْشِرِى يَا أُمَّ الْعَلَاءِ فإنَّ مَرَضَ المسْلِم يُذهِبُ خَطَايَاهُ كَما تُذْهِبُ النَّارُ خَبَثَ الحَدِيدِ".

abudawud:3092 – Sahl b. Bakkār > Abū ʿAwānah > ʿAbd al-Malik b. ʿUmayr > Um al-ʿAlāʾ

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ visited me while I was sick. He said: Be glad, Umm al-Ala' for Allah removes the sins of a Muslim for his illness as fire removes the dross of gold and silver.  

أبو داود:٣٠٩٢ – حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَوَانَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أُمِّ الْعَلاَءِ قَالَتْ

عَادَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا مَرِيضَةٌ فَقَالَ أَبْشِرِي يَا أُمَّ الْعَلاَءِ فَإِنَّ مَرَضَ الْمُسْلِمِ يُذْهِبُ اللَّهُ بِهِ خَطَايَاهُ كَمَا تُذْهِبُ النَّارُ خَبَثَ الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا فِي مَرَضِهَا فَقَالَ «أَبْشِرِي يَا أُمَّ الْعَلَاءِ فَإِنَّ» مَرَضَ الْمُسْلِمِ يُذْهِبُ خَطَايَاهُ كَمَا يُذْهِبُ النَّارُ خَبَثَ الْحَدِيدِ
