198. Narrated 'Āishah رضي الله عنها: When the ailment of the Prophet ﷺ aggravated and his disease became worse, he asked his wives to permit him to be nursed (treated) in my house. So they gave him the permission. Then the Prophet ﷺ came (to my house) with the support of two men, and his legs were dragging on the ground, between 'Abbās, and another man.' Ubaid-Ullāh (the subnarrator) said, "I informed 'Abdullāh bin 'Abbās of what 'Āishah said, Ibn 'Abbās said: 'Do you know who was the other man?' I replied in the negative. Ibn 'Abbās said, 'He was 'Alī (bin Abī Ṭālib).'"
'Āishah رضي الله عنها further said, "When the Prophet ﷺ came to my house and his sickness became worse he ordered us to pour seven skins full of water on him, so that he might give some advice to the people. So he was seated in a Mikhḏab (brass tub) belonging to Ḥafṣa, the wife of the Prophet
☼. Then, all of us started pouring water on him from the water-skins till he beckoned to us to stop and that we have done (what he wanted us to do). After that he went out to the people."
