Question

What is the source of this Hadith?

إنما مثل العبد المؤمن حين يصيبه الرعد والحمى، كمثل حديدة تدخل النار فيذهب خبثها ويبقى طيبها

 

Answer

Imam Hakim (rahimahullah) has recorded this Hadith. He has declared the Hadith authentic and ‘Allamah Dhahabi (rahimahullah) concurs.

Sayyiduna ‘Abdur Rahman ibn Azhar (radiyallahu ‘anhu) reported that Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

“The parable of the believer, when he is afflicted by a shiver or fever, is that of a piece of iron placed in the fire; its defects disappear and its goodness remains.”

(Mustadrak Hakim, vol. 1, pg. 73)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

التخريج من المصادر العربية

المستدرك للحاكم: (١/ ٧٣)
أخبرنا أبو بكر بن إسحاق الفقيه، وعلي بن حمشاذ العدل، قالا: أنبأ عبيد بن شريك البزار، حدثنا ابن أبي مريم، أخبرني نافع بن يزيد، عن عبد الله بن عبد الرحمن بن السائب، أن عبد الحميد بن عبد الرحمن بن أزهر، حدثه، عن أبيه عبد الرحمن بن أزهر، أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، قال: «إنما مثل العبد المؤمن حين يصيبه الرعد والحمى، كمثل حديدة تدخل النار فيذهب خبثها ويبقى طيبها».
هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد، ولم يخرجاه والذي عندي أنهما تركاه لتفرد عبد الحميد، عن أبيه بالرواية.
