One day, the dawn call to prayer had reverberated. Usman is well groomed and ready to go to the mosque with his father. The mosque is quite close to Usman's house, so Uthman and his father just walk away to get there. After morning prayer Mom has prepared breakfast for Usman and father. As usual, Dad would deliver Usman to his school.

Usman said good-bye to his mother. "Mother, Usman went to school first yes. Assalamu'alaykum. "Usman said. "Yes Usman, Usman learned the right yes at school. Wa'alaykumsalam. "Answer Usman's mother. Dad ushers Usman to school on his motorbike. Usman was never too late to come to school because waking up was always on time.


Arriving at school, Usman said goodbye to father while kissing his hand. Do not forget the father gave advice to Usman to learn the right. Usman walked to his class, and waited for the entry bell to ring. Usman sat in the front row seat. Usman usually sat with Umar, but today Umar did not attend school. During recess, Uthman asked Ali, "Umar today where is it? How come he did not go to school? "Usman asked. "Umar was sick with a dengue fever Man. I yesterday escorted her with her family to the hospital. "Ali replied. "Innalillahi, I just found out. In Shaa Allah I'll see him later. "

The school bell had been ringing, Dad was waiting for Usman. Then on the trip usman told him that Umar was ill. "Father, a friend of Uman's lap, Umar is ill. Later plans Usman want to visit him. Can you? "Said Uthman, asking his father. "Usman, of course. Later father will be inter-Usman to the hospital. "Answer Usman's father.




Arriving at home, Usman immediately changed clothes and get ready to go to the hospital with father to visit Umar. When arrived at the hospital just as the call to prayer ashar. Father and Usman immediately rushed to the mosque in the hospital. "Well, Usman pray Umar ya after the prayer later." Dad said with a smile. "Of course father. Usman will certainly pray for Umar. "Usman replied.

After the prayer, Usman and father immediately headed to the room where Umar was treated. Father and Usman knocked on the door and said good-bye, then the door to the room was opened by Omar's father. "Assalamu'alaykum." Usman's father greeted. "Wa'alaykumsalam. Let Pak and Dik Usman please come in. "Umar's father answered the greeting while inviting in.

In the room where Umar was treated, there was his mother Umar and his father and also Usman and his father. Do not forget Usman brings fruits that are needed by people affected by dengue fever. After the sense of visiting Umar, ultimately Usman and his father say goodbye. "Umar, get well soon. So we can learn together again. "Usman said encouragingly. "Yes Usman, I will also continue to be healed in spirit and we can learn and play together again." Umar replied with enthusiasm. Finally Uthman and his father took leave to go home.

At home the father gives an explanation of the virtue of visiting the sick. "Did Uthman know that visiting a sick person has a virtue?" Said the father. "What is his virtue? I want to know. "Usman replied eagerly. "The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: When a person visits his Muslim brother (sick), then (as if) he walks while picking the fruit of Heaven so that he sits, when it is seated it is revealed to him grace swiftly. When visiting him in the morning then seventy thousand angels mendo'akannya to get grace until the afternoon arrived. When visiting him in the afternoon, then seventy thousand angels mendo'akannya to be graced until the time of morning arrived. This hadeeth is narrated by at-Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah, and Imam Ahmad. Well the virtue is very much right, Usman? "Dad explained. "Yes dad, a lot of virtue from visiting the sick. But I will pray for all the people I love to be healthy always. "Usman said with a smile.
