زَامَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) فَحَطَطْنَا الرَّحْلَ ثُمَّ مَشَى قَلِيلًا ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَغَمَزَهَا غَمْزَةً شَدِيدَةً فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ أَ وَ مَا كُنْتُ مَعَكَ فِي الْمَحْمِلِ فَقَالَ أَ مَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ إِذَا جَالَ جَوْلَةً ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِ أَخِيهِ نَظَرَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِمَا بِوَجْهِهِ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ مُقْبِلًا عَلَيْهِمَا بِوَجْهِهِ وَ يَقُولُ لِلذُّنُوبِ تَحَاتَّ عَنْهُمَا فَتَتَحَاتُّ يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ كَمَا يَتَحَاتُّ الْوَرَقُ عَنِ الشَّجَرِ فَيَفْتَرِقَانِ وَ مَا عَلَيْهِمَا مِنْ ذَنْبٍ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Umar Bin Abdul Al Aziz, from Muhammad Bin Fuzayl, from Abu Hamza who said, ‘I was a travel companion of Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup>. So we unloaded our rides, then walked a little. Then he<sup>asws</sup> came over and grabbed my hand, and pressed it with an intense pressing. So I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you<sup>asws</sup>! Or, was I not with you<sup>asws</sup> in the carriage?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Do you not know that the <span class="iTxt">Momin</span>, when he wanders around, then grabs the hand of his brother, Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Looks at them both, and He<sup>azwj</sup> does not cease to be Facing towards them both by His<sup>azwj</sup> Face, and He<sup>azwj</sup> is Saying to the sins: “Fall off from them both!” So they fall off, O Abu Hamza, just as the leave fall of from the tree. Thus, they would be separating and there would not be upon the both of them, any sin’.
