| 0:12.8 | You need to make sure that you make an effort with your community. It's not easy. Serve them. Help them. |
| 0:19.8 | And if you're a part of it, let's not always look at what is this community doing for me. |
| 0:25.4 | But rather, what can I do for the community? When we look at it that way, everyone will look at it |
| 0:30.8 | that way and make life meaningful for you and your family. So let's look out. This is the |
| 0:36.8 | reason why visiting the sick is a great act of worship. Remember visiting the sick, it doesn't necessarily |
| 0:44.9 | mean you need to physically go there anymore because nowadays we have technology that would allow |
| 0:52.2 | us to visit the sick via a phone call. Perhaps via a video call, perhaps via a message. |
| 0:59.9 | Yes, where applicable you go and visit in person and you will get a multiplied reward. Sometimes |

| 1:36.5 | the Hadith tells you visiting. Yes, ultimately it's a physical visit, but you can visit in other ways |
| 1:43.8 | that perhaps may be more appropriate for the situation that that person is in. Why did Allah |
| 1:50.8 | give so much of importance to the visit? It's community development. You want these people to know |
| 1:56.7 | you're not alone. We're all with you, we're praying for you, we care for you and if there is |
| 2:01.2 | anything you need, guess what? We're going to try our best to reach out to you and to help you with it. |
| 2:07.5 | In that way you take care of the widows, the orphans, the destitute, perhaps the poor, those who |
| 2:15.3 | don't have, those who lost their jobs, those who are sick and ill, like we said, the elderly, |
