Visiting the Sick The Prophet also visited those who were sick. Indeed, his presence at the time of pain and suffering provided treatment 2 1 and comforted patients. One example was his visit to Sa 'd ibn 'Ubadah when he was ill. The Prophet visited him, accompanied by 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf, Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas and 'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud. When the Prophet entered the room, he realized that Sa 'd had lost consciousness. His family were around him. The Prophet asked them: "Has he passed away?" They said: "No, messenger of God." The Prophet was tearful. When those present saw him weeping, they also wept. He said: "Do you not hear? God does not punish anyone for tearful eyes or a sorrowful heart. He punishes for what this [pointing to his tongue] may do, or He may bestow His grace." This is just an example of the Prophet's compassion: his eyes were tearful simply because one of his companions lost consciousness. I wonder what were Sa 'd ibn 'Ubadah's feelings when he regained consciousness and recovered, then learnt that the Prophet wept when he saw him in that condition. How did Sa 'd's sons, relatives and attendants feel to see the Prophet sharing their worry and sadness, feeling as they felt? He appeared to experience the same feelings of pain and sorrow that they experienced. Such was the Prophet's compassion. No wonder. God who knows him has described him in these words: "'He is] tender and full of compassion towards the believers." (9: 128) Another example is his visit to J abir ibn 'Abdullah. J abir reports: "I fell ill. The Prophet came to visit me accompanied by Abu Bakr. They came walking when I was being nursed at my people's quarters, the Salamah clan. He saw me as I had lost consciousness. I was unaware of anything. The Prophet performed his ablution and then sprinkled some of the water he used for his ablution on me. I soon regained consciousness and found God's messenger by my side. I asked him: 'Messenger of God, what shall I 2 ! The Prophet often gave advice on what a patient should use to lessen his pain. 33
A Dery in the ufa rf Prophet Muhammad do with my property, as I have no immediate heir, neither parent nor child.' He did not answer me, until the Qur'anic verse explaining the inheritance in such a case was revealed." What we should know is that Jabir, the patient who asked the Prophet how his property would be divided should he die in that illness, lived around 70 years after the Prophet had passed away. This scene remained present with him. We need to reflect a little on Jabir's words: "I soon regained consciousness and found God's messenger by my side." As he reports the event, he sounds as if he was looking at him now and relives the surprise. Nothing is felt more keenly by people than to find you close at hand when they are in pain or feeling weak. Such was the Prophet with his companions. They never missed him at a moment of pain. He was always there to comfort them. Nor did they miss him at a moment of happiness. He was always there to please them. Hence, their unequalled love of him.
