Remembering Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) when Experiencing Numbness in the Leg

When a person’s leg becomes numb, he should remember Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam). Through the blessings of remembering Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam) with love in his heart, Allah Ta‘ala will remove the numbness of his leg.

عن مجاهد، عن ابن عباس، رضي الله عنهما قال: خدرت رجل رجل عند ابن عباس، فقال ابن عباس: اذكر أحب الناس إليك. فقال: محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم. فذهب خدره (عمل اليوم والليلة لابن السني، الرقم: 169)

Mujaahid (rahimahullah) reports regarding Hazrat ibnu Abbaas (radhiyallahu ‘anhuma) that on one occasion a person’s leg became numb while he was in the company of Hazrat ibnu Abbaas (radhiyallahu ‘anhuma). Hazrat ibnu Abbaas (radhiyallahu ‘anhuma) said to him, “Remember the most beloved person (of Allah Ta‘ala’s creation) to you.” (By telling the person to ‘remember the most beloved person to you’, Hazrat ibnu Abbaas (radhiyallahu ‘anhuma) was referring to Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam)). The person said, “(The most beloved person to me is) Hazrat Muhammad (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam).” No sooner did he think of Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam), the numbness on his leg disappeared.
