Prayer
of a Sick Person
Imam Baihaqi has stated on the authority of Hadhrat Ali (ra)
who stated: "Once, I was present with the Prophet (peace be
upon him). At that time, I had fallen so much sick that I
prayed to Allah Almighty to grant me death if I am destined
to die so that I may get relief from the sickness, otherwise,
I may be restored to normal health from the sickness if I
have to live for sometime. I, also, prayed for being granted
patience if this sickness is a test for me from Allah Almighty."
Hearing that, the Prophet beat Ali with his foot and observed:
"Oh Ali! repeat what you were saying." Ali (ra) repeated his
prayer. Then the Prophet prayed to Allah Almighty: "O Allah!
Heal him from the sickness." Ali (ra) stated that he became
healthy the same day and the pain never appeared again.
