حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، عَنْ أَبِي جَمْرَةَ الضُّبَعِيِّ، قَالَ كُنْتُ أُجَالِسُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ بِمَكَّةَ، فَأَخَذَتْنِي الْحُمَّى، فَقَالَ أَبْرِدْهَا عَنْكَ بِمَاءِ زَمْزَمَ، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ الْحُمَّى مِنْ فَيْحِ جَهَنَّمَ فَأَبْرِدُوهَا بِالْمَاءِ ‏"‏. أَوْ قَالَ ‏"‏ بِمَاءِ زَمْزَمَ ‏"‏. شَكَّ هَمَّامٌ.

বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবূ জামরাহ যুবা‘য়ী (রহ.) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমি মক্কা্য় ইবনু ‘আব্বাস (রাঃ)-এর নিকট বসতাম। একবার আমি জ্বরাক্রান্ত হই। তখন তিনি আমাকে বললেন, ‘তুমি তোমার গায়ের জ্বর যমযমের পানি দিয়ে ঠান্ডা কর।’ কারণ, আল্লাহর রাসূল সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেন, এটা জাহান্নামের উত্তাপ হতেই হয়ে থাকে। কাজেই তোমরা তা পানি দিয়ে ঠান্ডা কর অথবা বলেছেন, যমযমের পানি দিয়ে ঠান্ডা কর। এ বিষয়ে বর্ণনাকারী হাম্মাম সন্দেহ পোষণ করেছেন। (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ৩০২০, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
