It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The one who visits a sick person immerses himself in the ocean of Allah’s mercy. Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his hand on his side and said: He moves back and forth in this way, and when he sits by the sick person, Allah’s mercy covers him.
