The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) Giving Advice While Ill

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) was ill and asked his wives to allow him to be nursed in Aisha's house. He was then taken between two men, Abbas bin Abdul-Muttalib and Ali bin Abu Talib, to Aisha's house where he was given advice to the people while sitting in a basin. He then went out and led them in prayer and preached.

Narrated Aisha: (the wife of the Prophet) "When the ailment of Allah's Messenger ﷺ became aggravated, he requested his wives to permit him to be (treated) nursed in my house, and they gave him permission. He came out (to my house), walking between two men with his feet dragging on the ground, between 'Abbas bin 'Abdul--Muttalib and another man" 'Ubaidullah said, "I told 'Abdullah of what 'Aisha had said, 'Abdullah bin 'Abbas said to me, 'Do you know who is the other man whom 'Aisha did not name?' I said, 'No'. Ibn 'Abbas said, 'It was 'Ali bin Abu Talib"'.Aisha, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ used to narrate saying, "When Allah's Messenger ﷺ entered my house and his disease became aggravated, he said, " Pour on me the water of seven water skins, the mouths of which have not been untied, so that I may give advice to the people'. So we let him sit in a big basin belonging to Hafsa, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ and then started to pour water on him from these water skins till he started pointing to us with his hands intending to say, 'You have done your job"'.Aisha added, "Then he went out to the people and led them in prayer and preached to them".
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُفَيْرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عُقَيْلٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ، زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَتْ لَمَّا ثَقُلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَاشْتَدَّ بِهِ وَجَعُهُ اسْتَأْذَنَ أَزْوَاجَهُ أَنْ يُمَرَّضَ فِي بَيْتِي، فَأَذِنَّ لَهُ، فَخَرَجَ وَهْوَ بَيْنَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ تَخُطُّ رِجْلاَهُ فِي الأَرْضِ، بَيْنَ عَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ وَبَيْنَ رَجُلٍ آخَرَ‏.‏ قَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ فَأَخْبَرْتُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بِالَّذِي قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ، فَقَالَ لِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ هَلْ تَدْرِي مَنِ الرَّجُلُ الآخَرُ الَّذِي لَمْ تُسَمِّ عَائِشَةُ قَالَ قُلْتُ لاَ‏.‏ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ هُوَ عَلِيٌّ‏.‏ وَكَانَتْ عَائِشَةُ زَوْجُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ تُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمَّا دَخَلَ بَيْتِي وَاشْتَدَّ بِهِ وَجَعُهُ قَالَ ‏ "‏ هَرِيقُوا عَلَىَّ مِنْ سَبْعِ قِرَبٍ لَمْ تُحْلَلْ أَوْكِيَتُهُنَّ لَعَلِّي أَعْهَدُ إِلَى النَّاسِ ‏"‏‏.‏ فَأَجْلَسْنَاهُ فِي مِخْضَبٍ لِحَفْصَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ، ثُمَّ طَفِقْنَا نَصُبُّ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ تِلْكَ الْقِرَبِ، حَتَّى طَفِقَ يُشِيرُ إِلَيْنَا بِيَدِهِ أَنْ قَدْ فَعَلْتُنَّ قَالَتْ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ إِلَى النَّاسِ فَصَلَّى لَهُمْ وَخَطَبَهُمْ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how even when the prophet Muhammad ﷺ was ill, he still wanted to give advice and preach to people. He asked his wives for permission for him to be nursed at Aisha's house so that he could do this. Two men were chosen by Allah SWT, Abbas bin Abdul-Muttalib and Ali bin Abu Talib, who took him there on foot as he couldn't walk properly due to his illness. Once there they put him into a basin belonging Hafsa so that they could pour water over him from seven water skins which had not been untied yet as part of his treatment plan. After this process was complete he went out amongst the people leading them in prayer and preaching what Allah SWT has commanded us all with regards our faith. This hadith teaches us that even when we are unwell or facing difficulties we should still strive towards doing good deeds such as giving advice or preaching what is right according to Islam as it will benefit us both now and in our afterlife too Insha'Allah!
