حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّی وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ وَأَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبَايَةَ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ حَدَّثَنِي رَافِعُ بْنُ خَدِيجٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ الْحُمَّی مِنْ فَوْرِ جَهَنَّمَ فَابْرُدُوهَا عَنْکُمْ بِالْمَائِ وَلَمْ يَذْکُرْ أَبُو بَکْرٍ عَنْکُمْ وَقَالَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي رَافِعُ بْنُ خَدِيجٍ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 5760
Rafi' b. Khadij reported: I heard Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: The fever is due to the intense heat of Hell, so cool it down in your (bodies) with water. Aba Bakr has made no mention of the word from you ('ankum), but he said that Rafi' b. Khadij had informed him of it.
