Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ خَيْثَمَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَعُودُ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَ
مَ وَهُوَ يَشْتَكِي عَيْنَيْهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ يَا زَيْدُ لَوْ كَانَ بَصَرُكَ لِمَا بِهِ كَيْفَ كُنْتَ تَصْنَعُ قَالَ إِذًا أَصْبِرَ وَأَحْتَسِبَ قَالَ إِنْ كَانَ بَصَرُكَ لِمَا بِهِ ثُمَّ صَبَرْتَ وَاحْتَسَبْتَ لَتَلْقَيَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَلَيْسَ لَكَ ذَنْبٌ

Husayn ibn Muhammad narrated to us, Sharik narrated to us, from Jabir, from Khaythamah, from Anas ibn Malik (رضي الله عنه) who said: I entered with the Prophet ﷺ to visit Zayd ibn Arqam (رضي الله عنه) while he was suffering from an eye ailment. the Prophet ﷺ said to him: 'O Zayd, what would you do if your eyes were to lose their sight?' He said: 'I would be patient and seek reward.' He said: 'If your eyes lose their sight and you are patient and seek reward, your reward will be Paradise.'
