The phone can be a reviver [Part 16]

The phone can be used to seal ties of kinship especially if they had previously been cut. It feeds the roots for the plant of brotherhood. The end result of all of this is that goodness is spread and comes about, and the needs of your fellow Muslims are met by it.
In Islaam, the sick person has rights. We should supplicate for him, ask about his health without seeming to be unsympathetic, and we are encouraged in asking the sick person about the illness that he has been affected with. Comforting the afflicted one by getting close to him, or helping him financially or the likes if it; are all ways that he can help comfort him in his affliction.
Being veiled by the telephone doesn’t prevent the caller from attaining these virtues; however we shouldn’t be negligent in visiting those who are sick.
