Allah removes the sins of a muslim for his illness

Narrated Umm al-Ala (May Allah be pleased with her):

The Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wa sallam) visited me while I was sick. He said:

Reward for visiting a sick Muslim brother

Narrated Anas ibn Malik (Radhi-Allah-hu 'anhu):

The Prophet (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said:

If anyone performs ablution well and pays a sick-visit to his brother Muslim seeking his reward from Allah, he will be removed a distance of sixty years (kharif) from Hell.

I asked: What is kharif, AbuHamzah? He replied: A year.

A good Supplication (Dua) to heal sickness



Ibn `Abbas (Radhiallahu anhu) reported:

The Prophet (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said, "He who visits a sick person who is not on the point of death and supplicates seven times:

As'alullahal-`Azima Rabbal-`Arshil-`Azimi, an yashfiyaka

(I beseech Allah the Great, the Rubb of the Great Throne, to heal you),

Allah will certainly heal him from that sickness.''


[Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi]


Commentary:

There is always a great certainty that Allah will respond to a supplication which springs from a sincere, veracious heart. One should, therefore, pray for a patient with full conviction and reassurance of heart. Moreover, the Prophet's prayers have special effect and grace and therefore their original wordings should be uttered.

Praise be to Allah Who has saved him from Hell-fire

Anas (Radhiallaho anha) reported:

A young Jewish boy who was in the service of the Prophet (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) fell ill. The Prophet (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) went to visit him. He sat down by his head and said to him, "Embrace Islam.'' The little boy looked at his father who was sitting beside him. He said: "Obey Abul-Qasim (i.e., the Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam)).'' So he embraced Islam and the Prophet (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) stepped out saying, "Praise be to Allah Who has saved him from Hell-fire.''

[Al-Bukhari].

Commentary:
Herein, the example of the Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) inspires us to visit even a sick disbeliever and invite him to accept Islam. Besides, the Hadith tells that the company of the virtuous does bear fruit and that we should continue to hope that the heart of a disbeliever will turn to Allah at any moment. Furthermore, we come to believe that parents, though not clinging to the right way, may tell their offspring to pursue the truth.

Every Muslim has five rights over another Muslim

Abu Hurairah  (RadhiAllahu anhu) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) said:

"Every Muslim has five rights over another Muslim (i.e., he has to perform five duties for another Muslim):

1) To return the greetings,
2) To visit the sick,
3) To accompany funeral processions,
4) To accept an invitation,
5) To respond to the sneezer [i.e., to say: `Yarhamuk-Allah (may Allah bestow His Mercy on you),' when the sneezer praises Allah].''

Virtue of visiting the sick and the Divine reward

`Ali bin Abu Talib (Radhiallahu anhu) reported:

I heard the Messenger of Allah (Sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam) saying:

"When a Muslim visits a sick Muslim at dawn, seventy thousand angels keep on praying for him till dusk. If he visits him in the evening, seventy thousand angels keep on praying for him till the morning; and he will have (his share of) reaped fruits in Jannah.''

[At-Tirmidhi].
