Hadith 2

ions’. The Imam-asws, adornment of the worshippers, said: ‘O people! Raise your heads, for now you are recognisers, the insightful, and you are perfected, reached. Allah-azwj, Allah-azwj! Do not notify anyone from the reducers, the weak ones, upon what you have seen from me-asws, and from Muhammad-asws, for they would be disgraceful upon you and belie you’. They said, ‘We hear and we obey’. He-asws said: ‘So leave being rightly guided, perfected’. They left. Jabir says, ‘I said, ‘My Chief! And every one who does not recognise this matter upon the aspect which you-asws did and explained, except that with him is love, and he speaks with your-asws merits and disavows from your-asws enemies, what would be his state? ’
He-asws said: ‘He would happen to be in good until he reaches (this point)’. Jabir said, ‘I said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! Is there anything after that they would be deficient? ’ He-asws said: ‘Yes, when they are deficient regarding the rights of their brethren and do not participate them in their wealth, and in the secrets of their affairs and their public (affairs), and be enslaved with the debris of the world besides them. So, over there, the good is confiscated, and he is stripped off from besides it with a stripping, and is hit from the afflictions of this world and its scourges what he cannot tolerate nor bear it, of the pains within himself, and the loss of his wealth, and dispersion of his family due to what he had been deficient in the righteousness of his brethren’. Jabir said, ‘So I was gloomy, by Allah-azwj, with severe gloom, and I said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! What is a right of the Momin upon his Momin brother? ’
He-asws said: ‘He is happy to his happiness when he is happy, and grieves to his grief when he grieves, and he implements his affairs, all of it, and attains it, and he is not distressed to anything from the debris of the perishable world until he equalises him and they both flow in the good and the evil as one unit’. I said, ‘O my Master-asws! How come Allah-azwj Obligated all this for the Momin upon his Momin brother? ’
He-asws said: ‘Because the Momin is a brother of the Momin of his brother and his mother upon this matter. He does not happen to be his (biological) brother, and he is more rightful with whatever he owns’. Jabir said, ‘Glory be to Allah-azwj! And who is able upon that? ’ He-asws said: ‘One who wants to knock on the doors of the Gardens, and hug the beautiful Houries, and be gathered with us-asws in the House of Peace’. Jabir said, ‘I said, ‘I am destroyed, by Allah-azwj, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww, because I have been deficient regarding the rights of my brethren, and I did not know that it would necessitate me upon the reduction. All this and not even a tenth of it, and I repent to Allah-azwj the Exalted, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww, from what has happened from me, from the reduction in consideration of the rights of my brethren, the Momineen’’.
