Mishkat al-Masabih 1589

Ibn ‘Abbas said that staying for a short time and making little noise when visiting an invalid is part of the sunna. He reported Allah's Messenger ﷺ as saying, when their clamour and disagreement became excessive, ‘‘Get up and leave me.”(This was during the Prophet's last illness, the disagreement taking place regarding the advisability of the Prophet (ﷺ) giving them further written instructions.) Razin transmitted it.

وَعَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: مِنَ السُّنَّةِ تَخْفِيفُ الْجُلُوسِ وَقِلَّةُ الصَّخَبِ فِي الْعِيَادَةِ عِنْدَ الْمَرِيضِ قَالَ: وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمَّا كَثُرَ لَغَطُهُمْ وَاخْتِلَافُهُمْ: «قُومُوا عَنِّي» رَوَاهُ رزين
