PRAYERS OF THE FINAL PROPHET (SAAWW)

39. HIS INVOCATION FOR PROTECTION FROM FEVER

79. From Tibb al-A`immah: Narrated from ~Amr Dhi Qurrah and Tha~labah al-Jamm¡l who said: We heard Am¢r al-Mu`min¢n D saying: A severe fever came upon the Noble Prophet XE "Holy Prophet"  9 so Jibra`¢l came to him and recited the following invocation:

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ أُرْقِيكَ، بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ أَشْفِيكَ مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ يُؤْذِيكَ، وَاللّٰهُ شَافِيكَ، بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ خُذْهَا فَلْتُهَنِّيكَ. بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ. وَلاَ أُقْسِمُ بِمَوَاقِعِ النُّجُومِ، وَإِنَّهُ لَقَسَمٌ لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ عَظِيمٌ، لَتَبَرَّأَنَّ بِإِذْنِ اللّٰهِ عَزَّوَجَلَّ.

In the name of All¡h XE "All¡h"  - I invoke (for) you. In the name of All¡h - I cure you of every ailment that afflicts you and All¡h is your Healer. In the name of All¡h - take it as it brings you well-being. In the name of All¡h the Compassionate the Merciful. I swear by the setting of the stars. And that is indeed a mighty adjuration if you but knew. You will surely recover by the will of All¡h the Almighty.

Then the Prophet 9 stood up (cured) from that which had tied him down and he said: “O Jibra`¢l! This is indeed a great invocation!” He replied: “It is from a treasure in the seven heavens.”[i]
