Allah, Exalted is He, favors His pious servants with more rewards for their good deeds in different circumstances, at times of good health and sickness, and in free time and at times of preoccupation. In this hadeeth, the Taabi‘ee (Follower) IbraaheemAbooIsma‘eel Al-Saksakee narrated that AbooBurdah ibn AbooMoosaa Al-Ash‘aree and Yazeed ibn AbeeKabshah, who were Taabi‘een (Followers) as well, went on a journey with him. Yazeed used to observe fasting on journeys. AbooBurdah said to him, "I heard AbooMoosaa Al-Ash‘aree(may Allah be pleased with him) several times saying that Allah's Messenger ﷺ had said, 'When a servant of Allah falls ill or travels, he will get reward similar to what he gets for good deeds practiced at home when in good health.’” This means that whoever used to perform any given worshipful act or good deed, such as voluntary prayer, fasting, and the like, regularly and then happened to travel or fall sick and this prevented him from these deeds, Allah, Exalted is He, shall grant him rewards equal to them. It was said that this also applies to the obligatory worshipful acts as well; when a Muslim is unable to perform some or all of them due to sickness, Allah, Exalted is He, shall grant him equal rewards for such worshipful acts. When a sick person performs the obligatory prayer while sitting down because he is unable to pray while standing, he earns equal rewards to the one who performs the prayer in a standing position. The hadeeth highlights the great grace bestowed by Allah, Exalted is He, on His servants. It also underlines the virtues of performing voluntary (and obligatory) worshipful acts and good deeds while being in good health and in his residence (not travelling) to earn equal rewards whenever he travels or falls sick (and becomes unable to perform them)..
