سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ مَنْ زَارَ أَخَاهُ فِي اللَّهِ فِي مَرَضٍ أَوْ صِحَّةٍ لَا يَأْتِيهِ خِدَاعاً وَ لَا اسْتِبْدَالًا وَكَّلَ اللَّهُ بِهِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ يُنَادُونَ فِي قَفَاهُ أَنْ طِبْتَ وَ طَابَتْ لَكَ الْجَنَّةُ فَأَنْتُمْ زُوَّارُ اللَّهِ وَ أَنْتُمْ وَفْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ مَنْزِلَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ يُسَيْرٌ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ وَ إِنْ كَانَ الْمَكَانُ بَعِيداً قَالَ نَعَمْ يَا يُسَيْرُ وَ إِنْ كَانَ الْمَكَانُ مَسِيرَةَ سَنَةٍ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ جَوَادٌ وَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ كَثِيرَةٌ يُشَيِّعُونَهُ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ .
Translation
From him, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Is’haq Bin Ammar,f rom Abu Gurra who said, ‘I heard Abu Abdullah<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> saying: ‘The one who visits his brother for the Sake of Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> during an illness or well-being, neither coming to him for a deception nor for an exchange (reciprocal), Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> would Allocate seventy thousand Angels to him calling out behind his back: ‘You have done well, and the Paradise is (Made to be) better for you, for you are a visitor of Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup>, and you are a delegate of the Beneficent’, until he comes to his house’. So Yusayr said to him<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup>, ‘May I be sacrificed for you<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup>! And even if the place was distant?’ He<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> said: ‘Yes, O Yusayr, and even if the place was at a travel distance of a year, for Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> is the most Benevolent, and the Angels are numerous. They would be escorting him until he returns to his own house’.
