It is narrated from Sayyiduna Zayd bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: My eye became diseased and the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to visit me for my care. When I recovered and went outside, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: If your eye disease had remained, what would you have done? I said: If my eye disease had remained, I would have been patient and intended to seek reward. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If you had been patient and intended to seek reward in the case of this disease remaining, you would have met Allah in such a state that there would be no sin upon you. The words of the narrator Isma'il are: Then if you had been patient and intended to seek reward, Allah would have made Paradise obligatory for you.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I and the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to visit Sayyiduna Zayd bin Arqam (may Allah be pleased with him) to inquire about his health, his eye was diseased. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Zayd! If the illness of your eyes were to remain?... Then words similar to the above-mentioned narration were reported.

Narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Your Lord, the Exalted, has said: When I take away the eyesight of someone and he remains patient seeking reward, then his reward will be Paradise.

Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O son of Adam! When I take away both your eyes and you, at the very onset of the calamity, endure patiently seeking reward, then I will not be pleased for you with anything less than Paradise as a reward for it.

It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha bint Qudama (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The status of a Muslim servant in the sight of Allah Almighty is greater than that He would take away his two eyes and then also admit him into the Fire.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty said: If I take away the eyesight of a person and he remains patient seeking reward, then I am not pleased with any reward for him less than Paradise.
