四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 3.98

3.98

簡人進不。《五分》、《十誦》：七眾看比丘病，唯二眾得，沙彌及比丘；餘五不合。尼中三人得，餘四不合。雖父母兄弟不應與（謂勞畢竟不滿）。《摩得伽》云：白衣看比丘病，應與少許；尼三眾同之；沙彌應盡與。《五分》、《十誦》：與沙彌，同等大僧。準此，若眾多比丘、沙彌看病，應與究竟者；若齊究竟，應與一人已，屏處分之。《十誦》云：若看病者出行為病人乞衣藥者，留還付之；亦可攝入現前，唱和付與。若餘處安居來看病者，合賞。《伽論》：外界看者，亦合賞之。

Screening the persons to determine eligibility or ineligibility: The Pañcavargika-vinaya and Daśādhyāya-vinaya state: When the seven assemblies nurse a sick bhikṣu, only two assemblies obtain [the award]: śrāmaṇeras and bhikṣus; the remaining five are not eligible. Among nuns, three types of persons obtain it; the remaining four are not eligible. Even parents or siblings should not be given it (meaning that their labor was not fully complete). The Mātṛkā states: If a layperson nurses a sick bhikṣu, a small portion should be given to him; the three assemblies of nuns are treated the same; to a śrāmaṇera, the entirety should be given. The Pañcavargika-vinaya and Daśādhyāya-vinaya state: When given to a śrāmaṇera, it is equal to [that given to] a fully ordained monk. According to this, if many bhikṣus and śrāmaṇeras nursed the sick, it should be given to the one who saw it through to the end; if they saw it through to the end equally, it should be given to one person, who then distributes it in a secluded place. The Daśādhyāya-vinaya states: If the nurse of the sick went out to beg for robes and medicine on behalf of the sick person, [the award] should be reserved and handed over upon his return; it may also be subsumed under the present [saṃgha], chanting in harmony to hand it over. If one came from another varṣā retreat to nurse the sick, he is entitled to the award. The Saṃghabhedavastu states: A nurse from outside the boundary is also entitled to the award.
