Hadith 621
1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid from al-Hassan ibn Mahbub from Shu’ayb al-‘Aqar Qufi who has said the following
“I heard Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) saying to his companions, ‘Be pious before Allah and be virtuous brothers who love each other for the sake of Allah, and maintain good relations leniently. Visit one another, meet and speak of our cause and preserve it.’”
1ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ شُعَيْبٍ الْعَقَرْقُوفِيِّ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ لأصْحَابِهِ اتَّقُوا الله وَكُونُوا إِخْوَةً بَرَرَةً مُتَحَابِّينَ فِي الله مُتَوَاصِلِينَ مُتَرَاحِمِينَ تَزَاوَرُوا وَتَلاقَوْا وَتَذَاكَرُوا أَمْرَنَا وَأَحْيُوهُ.

2ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ كُلَيْبٍ الصَّيْدَاوِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
تَوَاصَلُوا وَتَبَارُّوا وَتَرَاحَمُوا وَكُونُوا إِخْوَةً بَرَرَةً كَمَا أَمَرَكُمُ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.

Hadith 624
4. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Ali ibn al-Hakam from abu al-Mighra’ from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following
“It is worthwhile for a Muslim to work assiduously to maintain good relations, to cooperate in kindness and assistance for the needy and to be compassionate to each other. Live out this so that you can be as Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, has commanded you to be, ‘. . . compassionate to each other, . . .’ (48:29) show kindness to each other and feel sad for their absence from you. You should be just as the group of Ansar (the supporters) was in the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah (a.s.) as mentioned in (48:29).’”
4ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي الْمَغْرَاءِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
يَحِقُّ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ الإجْتِهَادُ فِي التَّوَاصُلِ وَالتَّعَاوُنُ عَلَى التَّعَاطُفِ وَالْمُوَاسَاةُ لأهْلِ الْحَاجَةِ وَتَعَاطُفُ بَعْضِهِمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ حَتَّى تَكُونُوا كَمَا أَمَرَكُمُ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ رُحَماءُ بَيْنَهُمْ مُتَرَاحِمِينَ مُغْتَمِّينَ لِمَا غَابَ عَنْكُمْ مِنْ أَمْرِهِمْ عَلَى مَا مَضَى عَلَيْهِ مَعْشَرُ الأنْصَارِ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه).
