Miracle 52: Heat and Cold Had No Effect on Imam Ali (a.s.)

It is reported from Suweyd Bin Gafala who said,

‘We met Imam Ali (a.s.) while he was in two thin clothes in severe winter. We said to him (a.s.), ‘Do not be deceived by this land of ours, for it is a cold land, unlike your land’.

He (a.s.) said: ‘Yes, I used to be vulnerable from the cold, but when Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.) sent me to Khyber, I said to him (s.a.w.a.): ‘I have sore eyes’.

He (s.a.w.a.) applied saliva in my eyes and supplicated for me (‘O Allah! suffice him for the harm of the heat and cold’), so I no longer felt cold not hot afterwards, nor have I had sore eyes (again)’’.1
