حَدِيثُ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ الْجَرَّاحِ وَاسْمُهُ عَامِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ (١) رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، ، ١٦٩٠ - حَدَّثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ أَبُو خِدَاشٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَاصِلٌ، مَوْلَى أَبِي عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ بَشَّارِ بْنِ أَبِي سَيْفٍ الْجَرْمِيِّ، [عَنِ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْجَرْشِيِّ] ، عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ غُطَيْفٍ، قَالَ: دَخَلْنَا عَلَى أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ الْجَرَّاحِ نَعُودُهُ مِنْ شَكْوًى أَصَابَهُ، وَامْرَأَتُهُ تُحَيْفَةُ قَاعِدَةٌ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ، قلنا (١) : كَيْفَ بَاتَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ؟ قَالَتْ: وَاللهِ لَقَدْ بَاتَ بِأَجْرٍ، فَقَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ: مَا بِتُّ بِأَجْرٍ - وَكَانَ مُقْبِلًا بِوَجْهِهِ عَلَى الْحَائِطِ - فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَى الْقَوْمِ بِوَجْهِهِ، فَقَالَ: أَلا تَسْأَلُونَنِي عَمَّا قُلْتُ؟ قَالُوا: مَا أَعْجَبَنَا مَا قُلْتَ، فَنَسْأَلُكَ عَنْهُ. قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " مَنِ أنْفَقَ نَفَقَةً فَاضِلَةً فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، فَبِسَبْعِ مِائَةٍ، وَمَنِ أنْفَقَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ وَأَهْلِهِ، أَوْ عَادَ مَرِيضًا، أَوْ مَازَ أَذًى، فَالْحَسَنَةُ بِعَشْرِ أَمْثَالِهَا، وَالصَّوْمُ جُنَّةٌ مَا لَمْ يَخْرِقْهَا، وَمَنِ ابْتَلاهُ اللهُ بِبَلاءٍ فِي جَسَدِهِ فَهُوَ لَهُ حِطَّةٌ " (٢)، ،

It was narrated that ‘Iyad bin "Ghutaif said:
We entered upon Abu "Ubaidah bin al-Jarrah to visit him when he was sick, and his wife Tuhaifah was sitting by his head. We said: How is Abu "Ubaidah? She said: By Allah, he is gaining reward. Abu "Ubaidah said: I am not gaining reward. He was facing the wall and he turned to face the people and said: Why don"t you ask me about what I said? They said: We did not like what you said, so we did not ask you about it. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: "Whoever spends wealth for the sake of Allah will be rewarded seven hundred fold, and whoever spends on himself and his family, or visits a sick person, or removes something harmful (from the road), his good deed will be rewarded tenfold. And fasting is a shield unless he makes a hole in it. If Allah tests a person with physical sickness, it is a means of forgiveness for his sins.”
