Visiting the sick

مَنْ عَادَ مَرِيضًا لَمْ يَزَلْ فِي خُرْفَةِ الْجَنَّةِ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ

Man 'ada maridan lam yazal fi khurfati-l-jannati hatta yarji'.

"Whoever visits a sick person remains in the orchard of Paradise until he returns."

Narrated by Thawban. Sahih Muslim 2568

A short reflection

The walk to the door, the time at the bedside, the walk home. The whole errand is counted as time in a garden. Visit even when it is awkward.
