عَنِ العَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ رَضيَ اللهُ عنهُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، عَلِّمْنِي شَيْئًا أَسْأَلُهُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ. قَالَ: «سَلِ اللَّهَ العَافِيَةَ»، فَمَكَثْتُ أَيَّامًا ثُمَّ جِئْتُ فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، عَلِّمْنِي شَيْئًا أَسْأَلُهُ اللَّهَ. فَقَالَ لِي: «يَا عَبَّاسُ، يَا عَمَّ رَسُولِ اللهِ، سَلِ اللَّهَ العَافِيَةَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ».
Kutoka kwa Al-Abbasi bin Abdil Muttwalib radhi za Allah ziwe juu yake amesema: Nilisema: Ewe Mjumbe wa Mwenyezi Mungu, nifundishe kitu nitakachomuomba Mwenyezi Mungu Mtukufu. Akasema: "Muombe Allah afya", nikakaa siku kadhaa kisha nikarudi, nikasema: Ewe Mjumbe wa Mwenyezi Mungu, nifundishe kitu ambacho nitamuomba Mwenyezi Mungu. Akasema kuniambia: "Ewe Abbasi, ewe ami yake na Mjume wa Mwenyezi Mungu, muombe Mwenyezi Mungu afya katika Dunia na Akhera".
Al-‘Abbās ibn ‘Abdul-Muttalib (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I said: "O Messenger of Allah, teach me something that I may ask Allah Almighty for." He said: "Ask Allah for safety." After some days, I went to him and said: "O Messenger of Allah, teach me something that I may ask Allah for." He said to me: "O ‘Abbās, O uncle of the Messenger of Allah, ask Allah for safety in this life and the Hereafter."
Kurudiarudia kwa Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake jibu hilo hilo kwa Abbasi alipomuuliza kwa mara ya pili kunaonyesha afya ndio jambo la heri zaidi mja analomuomba Mola wake Mlezi.
Kumebainishwa fadhila za afya nakuwa imekusanya heri zote katika Dunia na Akhera.
Pupa ya Maswahaba radhi za Allah ziwe juu yao ya kutaka kuongeza elimu na heri.
