Question

What is the reference for the following?

Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) visited a sick villager, and whenever he would visit the sick he would recite the following du’a:

لاَ بَأسَ طَهُورٌ إنْ شَاءَ اللهُ

‘La ba’sa tahurun insha Allah‘

 

Answer

Imam Bukhari (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration on the authority of Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah ibn Abbas (radiyallahu ‘anhuma).

(Sahih Bukhari, Hadith: 3616)

 

Translation

Do not grieve, insha Allah through this sickness you will obtain purity (from your sins)

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.
