2087. Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "When one of you visits the ill, then reassure him regarding his lifespan. Indeed that will not repel anything, but it will comfort his soul." (Da'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadith is Gharib.
٢٠٨٧ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْأَشَجُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ السَّكُونِيُّ ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا دَخَلْتُمْ عَلَى الْمَرِيضِ فَنَفِّسُوا لَهُ فِي أَجَلِهِ،» فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَا يَرُدُّ شَيْئًا وَيُطَيِّبُ نَفْسَهُ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ.

Visiting the sick and enquiring about their health is an excellent deed meriting reward from Allāh. Its main purpose is to offer comfort and solace to them. That is why the Prophet ﷺ has advised such visitors to speak to the patients in a way that would comfort them, alleviate their suffering and be a source of happiness to them.
