حَدَّثَنَا
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ , أَخْبَرَنَا
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْمُبَارَكِ , أَخْبَرَنَا
يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ , عَنْ
عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زَحْرٍ , عَنْ
عَلِيِّ بْنِ يَزِيدَ , عَنْ
الْقَاسِمِ , عَنْ
أَبِي أُمَامَةَ , قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ :
" عَائِدُ الْمَرِيضِ يَخُوضُ فِي الرَّحْمَةِ , وَوَضَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدَهُ عَلَى وَرِكِهِ , ثُمَّ قَالَ : هَكَذَا مُقْبِلًا وَمُدْبِرًا , وَإِذَا جَلَسَ عِنْدَهُ غَمَرَتْهُ الرَّحْمَةُ " .
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.
