16 SEP (Hadith Of The Day) - About The Plague

Hadith of the Day
'A'ishah Radiyallahu 'anha, the wife of Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam, narrates: I asked Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam about the plague. So he informed me that it is a punishment (that) Allah sends upon whom He wills; and verily, Allah has made it a source of mercy for the believers. Anyone who remains in his place patiently, at the time of an epidemic of plague, anticipating (reward from Allah), believing that nothing shall befall him but what Allah has written for him, then (by destiny, if he is afflicted by plague there) will be the reward of a martyr for him. (Regardless whether he dies or not because of the plague). (Bukhari: 3474)
 
Note: Another hadith clarifies the order of the Shari'ah, that if plague breaks out in a region, whoever happens to be there should not leave, and who is outside that locality should not enter. Therefore, this Hadith grants solace for the one who stays patiently in the locality of the plague. Plague is considered a communicable disease in which lymph nodes enlarge mainly in the neck, armpit or groins. The patient generally dies on the second or third day. (Fathul- Bari)

Some scholars have termed every epidemic disease as plague. (Takmilah Fathul Muihim)

What shall I write about it, male or female? Whether wretched (evil doer) or blessed (doer of good)? How much will be its provisions? Then, what will be its age? So, all that is written while it is still in the mother's womb. (Bukhari: 6595)

I heard Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam narrating in a Hadith Qudsi: Verily the first (thing) that Allah Ta'ala created was the pen, then He ordered: Write! It (the pen) asked: My Rabb, what shall I write? He Commanded: Write down the destiny of everything that is to take place until the Day of Judgement. Sonny! Indeed, I heard Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam saying: He who dies upon belief other than this, is not from me. (Abu Dawud: 4700)
