'A'isha reported: When any person amongst us fell ill, Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him) used to rub him with his right hand and then say: O Lord of the people, grant him health, heal him, for Thou art a Great Healer. There is no healer, but with Thy healing Power one is healed and illness is removed. She further added: When Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) fell ill, and his illness took a serious turn I took hold of his hand so that I should do with it what he had done with that (i. e. I would rub his body with his sacred hand). But he withdrew his hand from my hand and then said: O Allah, pardon me and make me join the highest companion. She said: I was gazing at him constantly whereas he had passed away.
