“Everything has a reality, and the servant will not reach the reality of īmān until he knows that what afflicted him could never miss him, and that what missed him could never have afflicted him”
Yahya ibn Mu’ādh, may Allāh have mercy upon him, said:
“According to how much you fear Allāh the people will respect you, and according to how much you love Allāh the people will love you, and according to how much you busy yourself with Allāh [with worship] the people will become busy in your affairs [i.e. in your service].
Any Muslim slave (of Allah), who visits a sick person whose prescribed moment of death has not arrived (yet) and supplicates (seven times):
“I ask Allah The Supreme, Lord of the magnificent throne to cure you.”
…he (the sick person) will be cured.
Notes:
*In Sahih Ibn Hibban, when the prophet used to visit the sick: "he would sit at his head and say seven times: I ask Allah The Supreme ..etc".
*The excellence of visiting the sick;
Ali Ibn Abee Talib related that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say,
“If a man calls on his sick Muslim brother, it is as if he walks reaping the fruits of Paradise until he sits, and when he sits he is showered in mercy, and if this was in the morning, seventy thousand angels send prayers upon him until the evening, and if this was in the evening, seventy thousand angels send prayers upon him until the morning.”
