Visiting the Sick During Itikaf

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) would visit a patient while they were observing Itikaf.

According to the version of Al Nufaili, A’ishah said "The Prophet used to pass by a patient while he was observing I’tikaf(in the mosque) but he passed as usual and did not stay asking about him". According to the version of Ibn Isa she said "The Prophet would visit a patient while he was observing I’tikaf".
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ السَّلاَمِ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ أَبِي سُلَيْمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، - قَالَ النُّفَيْلِيُّ - قَالَتْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ يَمُرُّ بِالْمَرِيضِ وَهُوَ مُعْتَكِفٌ فَيَمُرُّ كَمَا هُوَ وَلاَ يُعَرِّجُ يَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ ابْنُ عِيسَى قَالَتْ إِنْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ يَعُودُ الْمَرِيضَ وَهُوَ مُعْتَكِفٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks to the importance of visiting those who are sick and in need of comfort. The Prophet Muhammad PBUH was known for his kindness and compassion towards others, especially those who were ill or in need of help. He would often visit people while they were observing Itikaf - a period of seclusion in the mosque for spiritual contemplation - to show them that he cared about their wellbeing even during this time. This hadith teaches us that we should always be mindful of those around us who may be suffering from illness or hardship and take time out to show them our support and care. We should also remember that even when we are busy with our own spiritual pursuits, it is important to take time out for others as well.
