Hadith 880
۞
4. From him (Sahl Ibn Ziyad) from Isma’il ibn Mehran from Durust ibn Abu Mansur al-Wasitiy from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar that ‘
Abdul Rahim al-Qasir asked the Imam (as), "Does a deceased believing person visit his family?’". He replied, "Yes, he asks his Lord for permission; then by His permission with two angels he comes to his family in the form of some kind of a bird. He turns around his house and observes his family and hears whatever they say.’”
4ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ دُرُسْتَ الْوَاسِطِيِّ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ الْقَصِيرِ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لَهُ الْمُؤْمِنُ يَزُورُ أَهْلَهُ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ يَسْتَأْذِنُ رَبَّهُ فَيَأْذَنُ لَهُ فَيَبْعَثُ مَعَهُ مَلَكَيْنِ فَيَأْتِيهِمْ فِي بَعْضِ صُوَرِ الطَّيْرِ يَقَعُ فِي دَارِهِ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَيَسْمَعُ كَلاَمَهُمْ.
