3543 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي الْخَصِيبِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ، جَمِيعًا عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ الْحُسَيْنِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا تُدِيمُوا النَّظَرَ إِلَى الْمَجْذُومِينَ»

Commentary
a. Looking constantly at such a patient may hurt his feelings, so one should avoid it. b. Whenever one sees a miserable person, he should recite the following supplication secretly: أَحْمَدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي عَافَانِي مِمَّا ابْتَلَاكَ بِهِ، وَفَضَّلَنِي عَنْ كَثِيرٍ مِمَّنْ خَلَقَ تَفْضِيلًا (All praise is for Allāh who saved me from that which He tested you with, and Who most certainly favored me over much of His creation.) (See Hadith: 3892)
