The one who visits the sick is in fact like one who is in the fruit garden of Paradise so long as he does not return.  

مسلم:٢٥٦٨a – حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ وَأَبُو الرَّبِيعِ الزَّهْرَانِيُّ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِيَانِ ابْنَ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ أَبِي قِلاَبَةَ عَنْ أَبِي أَسْمَاءَ عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ قَالَ

أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ رَفَعَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَفِي حَدِيثِ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَائِدُ الْمَرِيضِ فِي مَخْرَفَةِ الْجَنَّةِ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ

Verily, when a Muslim visits his brother in Islam he is supposed to remain in the fruit garden of Paradise until he returns. (Using translation from Muslim 2568c)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ الْمُسْلِمَ إِذَا عَادَ أَخَاهُ الْمُسْلِمَ لَمْ يَزَلْ فِي مَخْرَفَةِ الْجَنَّةِ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ
