وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هِشَامٍ الرِّفَاعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ، عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ ؓ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:

« إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ إِذَا خَرَجَ يُرِيدُ أَخًا مُؤْمِنًا يَعُودُهُ، خَاضَ فِي الرَّحْمَةِ إِلَى حَقْوَيْهِ، فَإِذَا جَلَسَ عِنْدَ الْمَرِيضِ وَاسْتَوَى جَالِسًا غَمَرَتْهُ الرَّحْمَةُ
