Visitng The Sick

Narrated by Ali ibn Abi Taalib (ra) that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alahi wa sallam said: "The one who visits the sick person walks on a pathway leading to Paradise, and when he sits down at the side of the sick pe

rson he becomes immersed in Allah's Mercy. So, if it was at night that he made such a visit then seventy thousand Angels will pray that Allah bless him until the morning, and if it was during the day that he made his visit then seventy thousand Angels will pray that Allah bless him until nightfall." (Abu Dawud.)
