Leprosy as a divine curse avoided by the faithful
1 Ḥadīth
Ḥadīth 1

وَ بِهَذَا اَلْإِسْنَادِ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ‌ ع اَلْبَرَصُ شِبْهُ اَللَّعْنَةِ لاَ يَكُونُ فِينَا وَ لاَ فِي ذُرِّيَّتِنَا وَ لاَ فِي شِيعَتِنَا .

(The same previous series of relaters)… Abu Abdullah (a) said: Leprosy is semi-curse. Neither we, nor will our descendants and Shia be affected by leprosy.
