Hadith 631
۞
7. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar from abu Ghirrah who has said the following
“I heard abu ‘Abd Allah saying, ‘If one visits his brother (in belief) for the sake of Allah, in his illness or in good health, not to deceive or to receive something, Allah will appoint seventy thousand angels to applaud behind him, “How beautiful is your deed! How beautiful is paradise for you! You are the visitor of Allah and the delegate to the Most Beneficent one.” This happens until he comes home.’ Yasyr then asked, ‘May Allah keep my soul in service for your cause, is it so even if the place of visitation is far away?’ The Imam said, ‘Yes, O Yasyr, even if the place of visitation is at a distance of one year’s journey; Allah is generous and the angles are a great many. They escort him until he reaches his home.’”
7ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي غُرَّةَ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ مَنْ زَارَ أَخَاهُ فِي الله فِي مَرَضٍ أَوْ صِحَّةٍ لا يَأْتِيهِ خِدَاعاً وَلا اسْتِبْدَالاً وَكَّلَ الله بِهِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ يُنَادُونَ فِي قَفَاهُ أَنْ طِبْتَ وَطَابَتْ لَكَ الْجَنَّةُ فَأَنْتُمْ زُوَّارُ الله وَأَنْتُمْ وَفْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ مَنْزِلَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ يُسَيْرٌ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ وَإِنْ كَانَ الْمَكَانُ بَعِيداً قَالَ نَعَمْ يَا يُسَيْرُ وَإِنْ كَانَ الْمَكَانُ مَسِيرَةَ سَنَةٍ فَإِنَّ الله جَوَادٌ وَالْمَلائِكَةُ كَثِيرَةٌ يُشَيِّعُونَهُ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ.
