Ibrahim al-Somali narrated that Imam Sadiq (a.s) said
“God will humiliate you in this world and the Hereafter if you humiliate one of your believing brothers while you are able to help them. The reward of helping a believing brother is more than that for one month of fasting and spiritual retreat in the Ka’aba - House of God in Mecca-.”
عن إبراهيم الثمالي عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام) قال
ما من مؤمن يخذل أخاه وهو يقدر على نصرته إلا خذله الله في الدنيا والآخرة، وإن نصره كان أفضل من صيام شهر واعتكافه في المسجد الحرام.
