Reviving the Emirati Tradition of Visiting the Sick Through 'Habit of Kindness'

Fri, Aug 21, 2026(45d ago)UAE

The UAE Nation, the digital media branch of the government, has launched the "Habit of Kindness" campaign, an initiative designed to breathe new life into the time-honored Emirati custom of visiting the sick. By leveraging the UAE volunteer platform, the project allows residents and citizens to easily sign up for hospital visits that align with their personal schedules and locations. This effort is not merely a social gesture; it is deeply rooted in local heritage and Islamic values, fostering a sense of community solidarity while providing emotional support that can tangibly boost a patient's recovery process.

This initiative also highlights the legacy of individuals like the family of Abdullah Ali bin Awwash Al Yammahi, who continue their late father’s practice of visiting patients to offer comfort that medicine alone cannot provide. To ensure these visits remain supportive and respectful, the campaign provides clear guidelines, such as keeping interactions brief, prioritizing the patient’s privacy, and bringing a sense of positivity to the bedside. Those interested in participating can register through the national volunteer portal or follow the UAE Nation social media pages for more details on how to contribute to this meaningful cause.
