It is narrated from Hazrat Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) that once we, some women, went to visit the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) during his illness. We saw that a water-skin was hanging near the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and its water was dripping onto him because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was feeling the intense heat of fever. We said: O Messenger of Allah! If you supplicate to Allah, He would grant you healing? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The most severe trials among all people have come upon the Prophets (peace be upon them), then in order of rank, upon those nearest to them."
