Abu Rabi' reported directly from Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) (may peace upon him) as saying: The one who visits the sick is in fact like one who is in the fruit garden of Paradise so long as he does not return.

Thauban, the freed slave of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) , reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: He who visits the sick continues to remain in the fruit garden of Paradise until he returns.

Thauban reported Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: Verily, when a Muslim visits his brother in Islam he is supposed to remain in the fruit garden of Paradise until he returns.

Thauban, the freed slave of Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) , reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: He who visits the sick is supposed to remain in the fruit garden of Paradise. It was said: Allah's Messenger, what is this Khurfat-ul-jannah? He said: It is a place abounding in fruits.

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Asim al-Ahwal with the same chain of transmitters.

Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: Verily, Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, would say on the Day of Resurrection: O son of Adam, I was sick but you did not visit Me. He would say: O my Lord; how could I visit Thee whereas Thou art the Lord of the worlds? Thereupon He would say: Didn't you know that such and such servant of Mine was sick but you did not visit him and were you not aware of this that if you had visited him, you would have found Me by him? O son of Adam, I asked food from you but you did not feed Me. He would say: My Lord, how could I feed Thee whereas Thou art the Lord of the worlds? He said: Didn't you know that such and such servant of Mine asked food from you but you did not feed him, and were you not aware that if you had fed him you would have found him by My side? (The Lord would again say:) O son of Adam, I asked drink from you but you did not provide Me. He would say: My Lord, how could I provide Thee whereas Thou art the Lord of the worlds? Thereupon He would say: Such and such of servant of Mine asked you for a drink but you did not provide him, and had you provided him drink you would have found him near Me.
