Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reported: When any person among us took ill, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) would rub his hand over him and say: 'O Allah, Lord of mankind, remove the disease, cure him, for You are the One Who cures. There is no cure but Your cure, a cure that leaves no disease behind.'
