حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " الْحُمَّى مِنْ فَيْحِ جَهَنَّمَ فَابْرُدُوهَا بِالْمَاءِ ".
Translation
Muḥammad ibn al-Muthannā narrated to me: Yaḥyā narrated to us: Hishām narrated to us; my father informed me, from ʿĀʾishah, from the Prophet ﷺ, who said, “Fever comes from the breath of Hell, so cool it with water.”
