3470. It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet ﷺ visited a sick person, due to an illness that he was suffering from and Abu Hurairah was with him. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Be of good cheer, for Allāh says: 'It is My fire which I have caused to overwhelm My believing slave in this world, to be his share of the Fire in the Hereafter.'" (Hasan)
3470 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّهُ عَادَ مَرِيضًا، وَمَعَهُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ مِنْ وَعْكٍ كَانَ بِهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَبْشِرْ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ: هِيَ نَارِي أُسَلِّطُهَا عَلَى عَبْدِي الْمُؤْمِنِ فِي الدُّنْيَا، لِتَكُونَ حَظَّهُ مِنَ النَّارِ، فِي الْآخِرَةِ "

Visiting a sick Muslim is an obligation on a Muslim towards another Muslim. The purpose of the visit is to provide the patient moral support, and he should say nice words that may ease his grief and sadness. Enduring troubles and trials of this life patiently saves one from Hell.
