[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , he said, "Allah, the Most High, will say to the servant on the Day of Resurrection, 'O son of Adam, I fell ill and you did not visit Me.' The servant will say, 'O Lord, how can I visit You when You are the Lord of all the worlds?' Allah will say, 'Did you not know that My servant so-and-so fell ill and you did not visit him? Did you not know that if you had visited him, you would have found Me with him?'"
