Arabic hadith text

وَعَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ وَلَا مُسْلِمَةٍ يُصَابُ بِمُصِيبَةٍ فَيَذْكُرُهَا وَإِنْ طَالَ عَهْدُهَا فَيُحْدِثُ لِذَلِكَ اسْتِرْجَاعًا إِلَّا جَدَّدَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى لَهُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ فَأَعْطَاهُ مِثْلَ أَجْرِهَا يَوْمَ أُصِيبَ بِهَا» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالْبَيْهَقِيُّ فِي شعب الْإِيمَان

Translation

Al-Husayn ibn Ali reported that the Prophet ﷺ said: ‘There is no Muslim man or woman who suffers a calamity and remembers it, even after a long time has passed, then renews the words “We belong to Allah and to Him we return,” but that Allah, Blessed and Exalted, renews for that person on that occasion and grants the like of its reward from the day the calamity befell them.’ Ahmad and al-Bayhaqi transmitted it in Shuʿab al-Iman.
