Consoling a Muslim in their affliction is considered an act of worship for which the doer is rewarded. It is permissible to travel from one town to another to console the family of the deceased, as long as it is easy and does not involve excessive burden or hardship. For those who find travel difficult, it is sufficient to offer condolences via phone or mail, and similar means.
