The Shaykh : In this hadith there are benefits:
First, the permissibility of setting up a tent in the mosque, but on the condition that the person for whom it is set up is worthy of it, being a noble and honorable figure in his people; otherwise, we cannot set up a tent for every sick person.
And among its benefits is the second condition, which is that it must not crowd the mosque. We derived this from the general textsRiyad as-Salihin 758 until he said to a man who was stepping over people's necks . So these are two conditions. What is the first condition?
The student: That he is worthy of it.
The Shaykh : That he is worthy of it, and the second is that the mosque or its people are not harmed by it.
And the third is also that this be for a valid purpose. So three conditions are fulfilled. The valid purpose is what was mentioned in the hadith.
And among the benefits of this hadith is the clarification of the status of Sa'd ibn Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) when he singled him out for this virtue, that his illness was from his mosque so that he could visit him from close by.
And among the benefits of this hadith is the good character of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) and his treatment of his Ummah, as he used to visit the sick and check on the healthy, and he was humble even toward the old woman and the small child, (peace and blessings be upon him).
And among the benefits of this hadith is the prescription of visiting the sick. The criterion for the sick person who is visited is the one who is prevented from leaving his house. As for the sick person who goes out, he is not visited because there is no need to visit him. He said, yes, to visit him from close by.
And among the benefits of this is that the proximity of the place of worship is a cause for its presence. This is the reality; that is, if a Muslim is sick and is close to you, it is easy for you to visit him. But if he is far away, it is difficult for you, and perhaps you will not visit him in a week except once.

Abu Qatadah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (ﷺ) forbade breathing into the vessel while drinking. [Al-Bukhari and Muslim] .
أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم نهى أن يؤذى أهل المسجدSit down, for you have caused harm
