Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ أَنَّ أَبَا الْخَيْرِ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُقْبَةَ بْنَ عَامِرٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَيْسَ مِنْ عَمَلِ يَوْمٍ إِلَّا وَهُوَ يُخْتَمُ عَلَيْهِ فَإِذَا مَرِضَ الْمُؤْمِنُ قَالَتْ الْمَلَائِكَةُ يَا رَبَّنَا عَبْدُكَ فُلَانٌ قَدْ حَبَسْتَهُ فَيَقُولُ الرَّبُّ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ اخْتِمُوا لَهُ عَلَى مِثْلِ عَمَلِهِ حَتَّى يَبْرَأَ أَوْ يَمُوتَ.
English Translation
'Ali ibn Ishaq narrated to us, he said: 'Abdullah narrated to us, Ibn Lahi'ah told me, he said: Yazid told me that Abu al-Khayr told him that he heard 'Uqbah ibn 'Amir relate from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, that he said, "There is no day's deeds but that they are sealed upon it. So when the believer falls ill, the angels say, 'O our Lord, Your servant so-and-so, You have confined him.' Then the Lord, Mighty and Sublime, says, 'Seal for him the like of his deeds until he recovers or dies.'"
