[Machine] The Bedouins came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we have difficulty in this matter, and we have difficulty in that matter." He said, "There is no difficulty. Allah has removed all difficulties except for one who has borrowed (money) and is unable to repay it. That is the only difficulty." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, do you seek treatment?" He said, "Seek treatment, for Allah has not sent down a disease except that He has also sent down its cure, except for old age." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a person can be given?" He said, "Good character."

adab:291

Usama ibn Sharik said, "I was with the Prophet ﷺ when some bedouins came. There were many people on all sides. The people were silent and no one spoke except them. They said, 'Messenger of Allah! We experience difficulty in such-and-such and such-and-such' and it was in things which are not harmful to people. He said, 'Servants of Allah! Allah has removed difficulty except in a case where a man slanders someone unjustly - that is the one who is in difficulty and destroyed.' They said, 'Messenger of Allah, can we make use of medical treatment?' 'Yes, servants of Allah,' he replied, 'you can make use of medical treatment. Allah Almighty did not create an illness but that He made a cure for it - except for one disease.' They asked, 'And what is that, Messenger of Allah?' 'Old age,' he replied. They said, 'Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a man can be given?' He replied, 'Good character'."

I came to the Prophet ﷺ and his Companions were sitting as if they had birds on their heads. I saluted and sat down. The desert Arabs then came from here and there. They asked: Messenger of Allah, should we make use of medical treatment? He replied: Make use of medical treatment, for Allah has not made a disease without appointing a remedy for it, with the exception of one disease, namely old age.

“I saw the Bedouins asking the Prophet ﷺ: ‘Is there any harm in such and such, is there any harm in such and such?’ He said to them: ‘O slaves of Allah! Allah has only made harm in that which transgresses the honor of one’s brother. That is what is sinful.’ They said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Is there any sin if we do not seek treatment?’ He said: ‘Seek treatment, O slaves of Allah! For Allah does not create any disease but He also creates with it the cure, except for old age.’ They said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a person may be given?’ He said: ‘Good manners.’”

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Allah ﷻ does not send an ailment except that he sends down a cure along with it: those who know of it know of it, and those who are ignorant of it are ignorant of it."

[Machine] I came to the Prophet ﷺ with his companions, and it was as if birds were perched on their heads. I greeted him and sat down. Then the Bedouins came and asked him, "O Messenger of Allah, shall we seek medical treatment?" He replied, "Yes, seek medical treatment, for Allah has not made any disease without providing a remedy for it, except for one disease, old age." Umar said, "When Usamah reached old age, he used to ask, 'Do you see any cure for me now?' They also asked him about certain matters, whether there was any difficulty in doing them or not. He said, 'O slaves of Allah, Allah has not placed any difficulty in anything except when a Muslim wrongfully takes another Muslim's property as a loan. That is a difficulty and a cause of his destruction.' They asked, 'What is the best thing given to people, O Messenger of Allah?' He replied, 'Good character.'"

It is known to those who know it and unknown to those who do not know it."

[Machine] We were sitting with the Prophet ﷺ as if birds were perched on our heads. No one among us would speak until a man from the Bedouins came to him and said, "O Messenger of Allah, give us your advice. Give us your advice." He replied, "O people of the Bedouins, Allah has made hardship unnecessary except for those who borrow from their brothers with the condition of repaying it. That is the hardship that destroys people." They said, "Should we seek treatment, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "Yes, indeed. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has not sent any disease except that He has also sent its cure, except for one disease." They said, "And what is that, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "Old age." They asked, "Who are the best of Allah's servants?" He said, "Those with the best manners among them." Among them were Shu'ban bin Abdur-Rahman, Ziyad bin 'Ilaqah, and Zuhair bin Mu'awiyah Al-Ju'fi.

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, Allah has not sent down a disease or created a disease except that He has also sent down or created a cure for it.

[Machine] I came to the Prophet ﷺ at Arafat and greeted him. He had a bird on his head and the Bedouins came to him from here and there saying, "O Messenger of Allah, we have difficulties in such and such." The Prophet ﷺ said, "O servants of Allah, Allah removes difficulties except for those who unjustly oppress others by borrowing money. They are the ones who face difficulties and destruction." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, should we seek medical treatment?" He replied, "Seek medical treatment, for Allah has not sent down an illness without providing a cure for it except for old age." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that people are given?" He said, "People are not given anything better than good character."

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ came across a group of Bedouins who had their swords slung over their shoulders. They surrounded the Prophet and started asking him questions. We felt worried for the Prophet ﷺ and approached them. We heard them asking, "Do we have any restrictions in doing this? Do we have any restrictions in doing that?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O people, Allah has not made any restrictions except for one: a man who takes a loan from his Muslim brother. That is the restriction and the cause of distress." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, can we treat ourselves for such and such ailment? Can we treat ourselves for such and such ailment?" He replied, "Treat yourselves, for Allah has not sent any disease except that He has also sent its cure except for one ailment, old age." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a Muslim can be given in this world?" He replied, "Good character."

[Machine] I witnessed the Prophet (PBUH), and some people from the Bedouins came to him asking about their right and left. They said, "O Messenger of Allah, do we have any restrictions in this and that?" They repeated this question to him twice. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) then said, "Allah has not made any restrictions except for those who unjustly borrow from a Muslim. That is a restriction and a destruction." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, can we seek remedy for this and that?" They repeated this question to him twice. He said, "Yes, seek remedy, for Allah has not sent down a disease except that He has also sent down a cure for it, except for death itself." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that people can be given?" He said, "Good manners."

[Machine] I was sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when the Bedouins came from all directions, until they surrounded him, and the people became silent. They called out, "O Messenger of Allah, can you cure?" He replied, "Yes, indeed Allah has not created any disease except that He has also created its cure, except for one disease." They asked, "What is that, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "Old age." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that can be given to a person?" He replied, "Good manners." They called out, "O Messenger of Allah, we face difficulties in various matters. What should be done about that?" He said, "O servants of Allah, Allah has not created any difficulty except for those who borrow from others, for that is what causes difficulty and loss."

[Machine] The Bedouins used to take advantage of the Prophet ﷺ due to their ignorance. So they came to him and said, "Messenger of Allah, we have some difficulties in this matter. Is it permissible?" He said, "There is no difficulty, hardship is removed for the servants of Allah except for those who do wrong when taking loans from their brothers. That is the hardship and he will be destroyed." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that can be given to a person?" He said, "Good character." This was narrated by Wahb ibn Isma'il from Muhammad ibn Qais and they were unsure about it. The correct narration is from Osama ibn Shareek.

[Machine] I witnessed the Bedouins asking the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about certain things that had no harm in them, saying, "Is there any harm for us in doing so, O Messenger of Allah? Is there any harm for us in doing such and such?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O servants of Allah, Allah has made ease and has not made difficulty, except for a man who takes a loan and does not intend to pay it back. That is a difficulty." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, shall we seek medical treatment?" He said, "Yes, Allah has not created any disease but He has also created its cure, except for one disease." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is it?" He said, "Old age."

[Machine] I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions, and they looked like birds on their heads. So I greeted them and then sat down. Then the Bedouins came from here and there and said, "O Messenger of Allah, should we seek medical treatment?" He said, "Seek medical treatment, for Allah ﷻ has not created any disease except that He has also created its treatment, except for one disease." They asked him about things that do not cause harm to us in this and that, and he said, "O servants of Allah, Allah has not made anything difficult for you except for someone who borrows with the intention of oppressing others. That is the difficulty and destruction." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that people can be given?" He said, "Good manners."
