حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " الْحُمَّى مِنْ فَيْحِ جَهَنَّمَ، فَأَبْرِدُوهَا بِالْمَاءِ ".
Translation
Malik ibn Ismaʿil narrated to us: Zuhayr narrated to us: Hisham narrated to us, from ʿUrwa, from ʿAʾisha (may Allah be pleased with her), from the Prophet (ﷺ), who said: ‘Fever is from the breath of Hell, so cool it with water.’
