In a recent scientific research it was proven & shown that visiting a patient enhances the immune system of the visitor because the human immune system is so sensitive towards what it feels or believes. And visiting a sick person & checking on him strengthens this system. And this is why The Prophet (PBUH) ordered us to visit the patients & check on them.

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “Every Muslim has five rights over another Muslim (i.e., he has to perform five duties for another Muslim): to return the greetings, to visit the sick, to accompany funeral processions, to accept an invitation, to respond to the sneezer [i.e., to say: ‘Yarhamuk-Allah (may Allah bestow His Mercy on you),’ when the sneezer praises Allah].” [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “Visit the sick, feed the hungry, and (arrange for the) release of the captive.” [Al-Bukhari].

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “He who visits his brother in Faith, will remain engaged in picking the fresh fruits from the garden of Jannah till he returns.” [Muslim].
