لَمَّا قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) أَتَاهُمْ آتٍ فَوَقَفَ بِبَابِ الْبَيْتِ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ ذائِقَةُ الْمَوْتِ وَ إِنَّما تُوَفَّوْنَ أُجُورَكُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيامَةِ فَمَنْ زُحْزِحَ عَنِ النَّارِ وَ أُدْخِلَ الْجَنَّةَ فَقَدْ فازَ وَ مَا الْحَياةُ الدُّنْيا إِلَّا مَتاعُ الْغُرُورِ فِي اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ خَلَفٌ مِنْ كُلِّ هَالِكٍ وَ عَزَاءٌ مِنْ كُلِّ مُصِيبَةٍ وَ دَرَكٌ لِمَا فَاتَ فَبِاللَّهِ فَثِقُوا وَ عَلَيْهِ فَتَوَكَّلُوا وَ بِنَصْرِهِ لَكُمْ عِنْدَ الْمُصِيبَةِ فَارْضَوْا فَإِنَّمَا الْمُصَابُ مَنْ حُرِمَ الثَّوَابَ وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ وَ لَمْ يَرَوْا أَحَداً فَقَالَ بَعْضُ مَنْ فِي الْبَيْتِ هَذَا مَلَكٌ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ بَعَثَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَيْكُمْ لِيُعَزِّيَكُمْ وَ قَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ هَذَا الْخَضِرُ ( عليه السلام ) جَاءَكُمْ يُعَزِّيكُمْ بِنَبِيِّكُمْ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) .
Translation
From him, from Salma, from Muhammad Bin Isa Al Armany, from Al Husayn Bin Ulwan, from Abdullah Bin Al waleed, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘When Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> passed away, a comer came to them<sup>asws</sup> and paused by the door of the house. So he<sup>as</sup> greeted them<sup>asws</sup>, then said: ‘The greeting be upon you<sup>asws</sup>, O Progeny<sup>asws</sup> of Muhammad<sup>saww</sup>! <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:3#h185"><a href="/books/quran:3#h185">[3:185]</a></a> Every self shall taste the death, but rather you shall only be paid fully your Reward on the Day of Judgement; then whoever is removed far away from the Fire and is made to enter the Paradise he indeed has succeeded</span>. In the Presence of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic is a condolence from every difficulty (bereavement) and a replacement from every dying one, and a compensation for whatever is lost. Thus, on Allah<sup>azwj</sup> you<sup>asws</sup> should be trusting and upon Him<sup>azwj</sup> should you<sup>asws</sup> be relying and in His<sup>azwj</sup> Help for you<sup>asws</sup> during the difficulties, and be pleased, for the one in difficulty is the one who is deprived of the Rewards. And the greetings be upon you<sup>asws</sup>, and His<sup>azwj</sup> Mercy and His<sup>azwj</sup> Blessings. So someone from the ones in the house said: ‘This is an Angel from the sky. Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic Sent him to you<sup>asws</sup> in order to console you<sup>asws</sup>, and one of them said: ‘This is Khizr<sup>as</sup>, coming to you<sup>asws</sup> with condolences of your<sup>asws</sup> Prophet<sup>saww</sup>’.
