When a person’s leg becomes numb, he should remember Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم. Through the blessings of remembering Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم 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 رحمه الله reports regarding Hazrat ibnu Abbaas رضي الله عنهما that on one occasion a person’s leg became numb while he was in the company of Hazrat ibnu Abbaas رضي الله عنهما. Hazrat ibnu Abbaas رضي الله عنهما 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 رضي الله عنهما was referring to Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم). The person said, “(The most beloved person to me is) Hazrat Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم.” No sooner did he think of Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم, the numbness on his leg disappeared.

ہر درد کی دوا ہے صل علی محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم
“The cure for every sickness is reciting Durood upon Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم”
Reciting Durood When in Pain
Hazrat Abdur Raheem bin Abdur Rahmaan رحمه الله says:
“Once, my arm was injured because of a fall in the bathroom, and it was badly swollen. That night, the pain caused me great discomfort. At last, my eyes closed and I slumbered a little. In a vision, I saw Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم and all I could say was, “Ya Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم.”
Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم replied, “The numerous recitations of Durood by you because of the pain in your hand have greatly concerned and worried me.” When I awoke, I found that the pain had subsided completely and the swelling had disappeared.

The Author of Qaseedah Burdah
Allaamah Busairi رحمه الله was a scholar of Deen and a saintly personality. During his life, he was afflicted with a stroke. He prepared his poetry (the Qaseedah Burdah) with the hope that these poems of the praise and love of Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم would become a means for him seeking the mercy of Allah Taála جل جلاله and curing him from his affliction. One night, he saw Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم in a dream and presented before Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم the poetry he composed out of the love of Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم. Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم placed his mubaarak hand on him, and when he awoke in the morning, he was cured and was able to walk.

A Durood to Recite When in Pain
Shaikh Salih al Jaʼfari رحمه الله said: “I saw Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم in a dream and He put his hand on my head and said, say:
اَلَّلهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ طِبِّ الْقُلُوْبِ وَدَوَائِهَا
وَعَافِيَةِ الْأَبْدَانِ وَشِفَائِهَا وَنُوْرِ الْأَبْصَارِ وَضَيَائِهَا
وَقُوْتِ الْأَرْوَاحِ وَغِذَائِهَا وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَصَحْبِهِ وَسَلِّم
O Allah! bless Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم (his household and companions), the doctor of the hearts and its medicine, the wellness of the body and its cure, the light of the eyes and its radiance and the food for souls and its nourishment.
Recite this Durood for any body pains or illness. and for the health of the spiritual heart, body and soul.
NB. Shaikh Salih al Ja’fari رحمه الله was a famous Shaikh. He had great love for Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم and used to often see him in his dreams and at times during wakefulness. His students report that they used to hear him ask Nabi صلى الله عليه وسلم regarding the authority of certain Ahadith.
(Adapted from Dua-ul-Mareedh pg.10)
يَا رَبِّ صَلِّ وَسَلِّمْ دَائِمَاً أَبَدًا عَلَى حَبِيْبِكَ خَيْرِ الْخَلْقِ كُلِّهِمِ
“O Sustainer, shower Salaat and Salaam forever and ever upon Your beloved, who is the best of all creation.”
جَزَی اللہُ عَنَّا نَبِيَّنَا مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْه وسَلَّمَ بِمَا هُوَ أَھْلُهُ
May Allah Ta’ala جل جلاله reward our Nabi Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم on our behalf such a reward that is due to Him.
