Al-Kafi 2128

Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al Husayn, from Muhammad Bin Ismail Bin Bazie, from Salih Bin Uqba, from Abdullah Bin Muhammad Al Ju’fy, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far^asws and Abu Abdullah^asws both having said: ‘Whichever <span class="iTxt">Momin</span> goes out to his brother to visit him, recognising his right, Allah^azwj would Write a good deed for him for every step taken, and Delete a sin from him, and Raise a level for him. When he knocks on the door, the Doors of the sky would be opened up for him. So when they meet and shake hands and embrace, Allah^azwj Turns towards them by His^azwj Face, the Prides with the two of them to the Angels, so He^azwj is Saying: “Look at My^azwj servants visiting and loving each other regarding Me^azwj. It is a right upon Me^azwj that I^azwj should not Punish the two of them with the Fire after this attitude. So when he leaves, he would be escorted by the Angels of the number of his breaths, and his steps, and his words, protecting him from afflictions of the world and the hardships of the Hereafter, up to the like of that the next night. So if he dies during what is between the two, he would be Excused from the Reckoning. And if it was so that the visited on recognised the right of the visitor, what the visitor recognised from the right of the visited, there would be for him the like of his Recompense’.
