قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) الْحَاجُّ ثَلَاثَةٌ فَأَفْضَلُهُمْ نَصِيباً رَجُلٌ غُفِرَ لَهُ ذَنْبُهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْهُ وَ مَا تَأَخَّرَ وَ وَقَاهُ اللَّهُ عَذَابَ الْقَبْرِ وَ أَمَّا الَّذِي يَلِيهِ فَرَجُلٌ غُفِرَ لَهُ ذَنْبُهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْهُ وَ يَسْتَأْنِفُ الْعَمَلَ فِيمَا بَقِيَ مِنْ عُمُرِهِ وَ أَمَّا الَّذِي يَلِيهِ فَرَجُلٌ حُفِظَ فِي أَهْلِهِ وَ مَالِهِ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Abu Nasr, from Al Mufazzal Bin Salih, from Jabir, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said; ‘Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘The pilgrims are three, so the most superior of them in share is a man for whom his sins are Forgiven, whatever has preceded from it and whatever it delayed, and Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Saves him from the Punishment of the grave; and as for the one who follows him, so it is a man whose sins have been Forgiven for him, whatever has preceded from it, and he resumes the deeds in what is remaining from his life-span; and as for the one who follows him, so it is a man who is Protected regarding his family and his wealth’.
