7. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Mansur ibn Yunus from abu al-Mamun al-Harithi who has said the following
“Once I asked Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) ‘What are the rights of the believer on the believer?’ The Imam said, ‘Of the rights of the believer on the believer is to have compassion for him in his heart, assist him with his property, protect his interests in his absence in the matters of his family and support him against those who do injustice to him. If a benefit is distributed among the Muslims in his absence his believing brother should secure his share thereof. When he dies, he should visit his gravesite, must not do injustice to him, must not deceive him, must not violate his trust, must not betray him, must not call him a liar, must not say to him, ‘Fie upon you.’ If he says fie up on you then no guardianship ( Walayah ) relations will remain between them. If he says, ‘You are my enemy,’ one of them becomes an unbeliever and if he accuses him, belief in his heart will melt as salt melts in water.’”
7ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ يُونُسَ عَنْ أَبِي الْمَأْمُونِ الْحَارِثِيِّ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) مَا حَقُّ الْمُؤْمِنِ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِ قَالَ إِنَّ مِنْ حَقِّ الْمُؤْمِنِ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِ الْمَوَدَّةَ لَهُ فِي صَدْرِهِ وَالْمُوَاسَاةَ لَهُ فِي مَالِهِ وَالْخَلَفَ لَهُ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَالنُّصْرَةَ لَهُ عَلَى مَنْ ظَلَمَهُ وَإِنْ كَانَ نَافِلَةٌ فِي الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَكَانَ غَائِباً أَخَذَ لَهُ بِنَصِيبِهِ وَإِذَا مَاتَ الزِّيَارَةَ إِلَى قَبْرِهِ وَأَنْ لا يَظْلِمَهُ وَأَنْ لا يَغُشَّهُ وَأَنْ لا يَخُونَهُ وَأَنْ لا يَخْذُلَهُ وَأَنْ لا يُكَذِّبَهُ وَأَنْ لا يَقُولَ لَهُ أُفٍّ وَإِذَا قَالَ لَهُ أُفٍّ فَلَيْسَ بَيْنَهُمَا وَلايَةٌ وَإِذَا قَالَ لَهُ أَنْتَ عَدُوِّي فَقَدْ كَفَرَ أَحَدُهُمَا وَإِذَا اتَّهَمَهُ انْمَاثَ الإيمَانُ فِي قَلْبِهِ كَمَا يَنْمَاثُ الْمِلْحُ فِي الْمَاءِ.
