It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Khalid al-Sulami (may Allah be pleased with him) that he set out to visit one of his brothers. Before he had reached him, he learned that he was ill, so he said: I came to you to visit, and now I have also come to visit you in your illness and to give you good news. He asked: How did all this come together? He said: I set out intending to visit you, and the news of your illness reached me, so it became a sick visit as well. And I give you good news of something I heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) - then he narrated a hadith like that of al-Nufayli.
