3526. It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbâs that, for fever and all kinds of pain, the Prophet ﷺ used to teach them to say: "Bismillâhil-kabir, a'udhu billâhil-'Azîm min sharri 'irqin na'âr wa, min sharri harrin-nâr (In the Name of Allâh the Great, I seek refuge with Allâh the Almighty from the evil of a vein gushing (with blood) and the evil of the heat of the Fire)." (Da'if)
(One of the narrators) Abu 'Ammâr said: "I differed with the people on this, I said: 'Screaming.'" [1]
Another chain from Ibn 'Abbâs,
[1] That is, rather than: 'gushing.'
from the Prophet ﷺ with similar, wording and he said: "From the evil of a vein screaming (with blood)."

Commentary
The word Ya'âr is derived form the word Arârah which linguistically means 'hardness, ill-natured'. The meaning is that the vein which (due to sickness or fever) has become a source of hardness and uneasiness.
