"والَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيدِه مَا عَلَى الأرضِ مسلمٌ يُصِيبُه أَذًى مِنْ مرضٍ فَما سِوَاه إِلا حَطَّ الله عَنْه خَطاياهُ كما تَحُطُّ الشجرةُ وَرَقَها".

I entered upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was suffering from a high fever. I said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, you have a very high fever." He said, "Yes, I have as much fever as two men of you." I said, "Is it because you will have a double reward?"
He said, "Yes, it is so. No Muslim is afflicted with the prick of a thorn or something greater except that Allah expiates his sins because of it just as a tree sheds its leaves."
دَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهْوَ يُوعَكُ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّكَ تُوعَكُ وَعْكًا شَدِيدًا! قَالَ: «أَجَلْ، إِنِّي أُوعَكُ كَمَا يُوعَكُ رَجُلاَنِ مِنْكُمْ»، قُلْتُ: ذَلِكَ أَنَّ لَكَ أَجْرَيْنِ؟
قَالَ: «أَجَلْ، ذَلِكَ كَذَلِكَ: مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يُصِيبُهُ أَذًى شَوْكَةٌ فَمَا فَوْقَهَا إِلاَّ كَفَّرَ اللَّهُ بِهَا سَيِّئَاتِهِ كَمَا تَحُطُّ الشَّجَرَةُ وَرَقَهَا».

I visited the Prophet ﷺ during his illness and touched him while he was having a fever. I said to him, "You have a high fever; is it because you will get a double reward?" He said, "Yes. No Muslim is afflicted with any harm, but that his sins will be annulled as the leave of a tree fall down."
أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي مَرَضِهِ فَمَسِسْتُهُ وَهْوَ يُوعَكُ وَعْكًا شَدِيدًا فَقُلْتُ إِنَّكَ لَتُوعَكُ وَعْكًا شَدِيدًا وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ لَكَ أَجْرَيْنِ قَالَ أَجَلْ وَمَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يُصِيبُهُ أَذًى إِلاَّ حَاتَّتْ عَنْهُ خَطَايَاهُ كَمَا تَحَاتُّ وَرَقُ الشَّجَرِ
