حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَبِي خَالِدٍ يَزِيدَ عَنِ الْمِنْهَالِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مَنْ أَتَى مَرِيضًا لَمْ يَحْضُرْ أَجَلُهُ فَقَالَ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الْعَظِيمَ رَبَّ الْعَرْشِ الْكَرِيمِ أَنْ يَشْفِيَهُ إِلَّا عُوفِيَ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 2182
It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas (RA) that the Prophet (PBUH) said: "No one visits a sick person whose time [of death] has not yet come and says seven times, 'I ask Allah the Almighty, Lord of the Mighty Throne, to heal him but he will be healed."
