قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) حَدَّثَنِي جَبْرَئِيلُ ( عليه السلام ) أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَهْبَطَ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ مَلَكاً فَأَقْبَلَ ذَلِكَ الْمَلَكُ يَمْشِي حَتَّى وَقَعَ إِلَى بَابٍ عَلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَى رَبِّ الدَّارِ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمَلَكُ مَا حَاجَتُكَ إِلَى رَبِّ هَذِهِ الدَّارِ قَالَ أَخٌ لِي مُسْلِمٌ زُرْتُهُ فِي اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى قَالَ لَهُ الْمَلَكُ مَا جَاءَ بِكَ إِلَّا ذَاكَ فَقَالَ مَا جَاءَ بِي إِلَّا ذَاكَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ إِلَيْكَ وَ هُوَ يُقْرِئُكَ السَّلَامَ وَ يَقُولُ وَجَبَتْ لَكَ الْجَنَّةُ وَ قَالَ الْمَلَكُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَقُولُ أَيُّمَا مُسْلِمٍ زَارَ مُسْلِماً فَلَيْسَ إِيَّاهُ زَارَ إِيَّايَ زَارَ وَ ثَوَابُهُ عَلَيَّ الْجَنَّةُ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Hammad Bin Isa, from Ibrahim Bin Umar Al Yamani, from Jabir, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> having said: ‘Rasool-Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">saww</sup> said: ‘Jibraeel<sup style="font-weight: normal">as</sup> narrated to me<sup style="font-weight: normal">saww</sup> that Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic Sent an Angel down to the earth. So the Angel went walking until he came to a door at which was a man seeking permission from the owner of the house. So the Angel said to him: ‘What is your need to the owner of this house?’ He said, ‘A Muslim brother of mine whom I am visiting for the Sake of Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Blessed and High’. The Angel said to him: ‘You did not come for anything except for that?’ So he said, ‘I did not come for anything except for that’. So he said: ‘I am a messenger of Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> to you and He<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Conveys the Greetings to you and is Saying: “The Paradise is Obligated for you”. And the Angel said ‘Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic is Saying: “Whichever Muslim visits a Muslim, so it is not him that he is visiting, he is visiting Me<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup>, and his Reward upon Me<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> is the Paradise”’.
