The Rewards & Punishments of Deeds

Thawāb al-Aʿmāl wa ʿiqāb al-Aʿmāl

Thawāb al-Aʿmāl wa ʿIqāb al-Aʿmāl is a remarkable collection of Ḥadīths collected by al-Shaykh al-Ṣadūq, a preeminent Shīʿa scholar of the 4th/10th century. Thawāb al-Aʿmāl wa ʿIqāb al-Aʿmāl delineates virtuous and sinful deeds, elucidating their spiritual consequences which lead to either reward or punishment. It has long served as an invaluable resource for both Shīʿa scholars and the general Shīʿa population and is celebrated as one of the most notable Shīʿa Ḥadīth collections. The author's motivation for writing this book was rooted in the prophetic hadith: "The one who leads people to good deeds is as their doer." Shaykh al-Ṣadūq emphasised that his primary goal in authoring the book was to seek the reward and satisfaction of God. The book is structured into two primary parts. The first part, "Thawāb al-Aʿmāl," encompasses 788 Ḥadīths arranged under 389 titles, detailing the spiritual rewards for performing righteous actions. The second part, "ʿIqāb al-Aʿmāl," includes 331 Ḥadīths distributed under 131 titles, focusing on the punitive consequences of committing sinful actions.

Introduction - Hadith 30472

بِسْمِ اللّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ الحمد لله الواحد القديم الأزلي الذي لا يوصف بحد و لا نهاية و لا تَأْخُذُهُ سِنَةٌ وَ لا نَوْمٌ الذي لا ابتداء لكونه و لا غاية لبقائه الدال على وجوده بخلقه و بإحداث خلقه على أزليته و بأشباههم على أن لا شبه له المستشهد بآياته على قدرته الممتنعة من الصفات ذاته و من الأبصار رؤيته و من الأوهام الإحاطة به الذي لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَيْءٌ وَ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْبَصِيرُ العليم و أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له الذي وعد على طاعته ثوابه و على معصيته عقابه و أشهد أن محمدا عبده و رسوله أرسله بكتاب فصله و حكمة فأيده- لا يَأْتِيهِ الْباطِلُ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ وَ لا مِنْ خَلْفِهِ تَنْزِيلٌ مِنْ حَكِيمٍ حَمِيدٍ و أشهد أن أمير المؤمنين علي بن أبي طالب و الأئمة الطاهرين من ولده حجج الله على خلقه بعد انقضاء وحيه و أشهد أن شيعتهم و مواليهم المتبعين لسنتهم و طريقتهم على صراط مستقيم و أنهم الْمُؤْمِنُونَ حَقًّا و أن الذين خالفوهم و حادوا عن طريقتهم و تركوا أمرهم و لم يستنوا بسنتهم- عَنِ الصِّراطِ لَناكِبُونَ و قد ظلوا السبيل أسأل الله أن يثبتنا على دينهم و موالاتهم و محبتهم و أن لا يزيغ قلوبنا بعد إذ هدانا و أن يهب لنا من لدنه رحمة إنه هو الوهاب قال محمد بن علي بن الحسين بن موسى بن بابويه القمي (رحمه الله) إن الذي دعاني إلى تأليف كتابي هذا- - مَا رُوِيَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ (ص) أَنَّهُ قَالَ الدَّالُّ عَلَى الْخَيْرِ كَفَاعِلِهِ و سميته كتاب ثواب الأعمال و أرجو أن لا يحرمني الله ثواب ذلك فما أردت من تصنيفه إلا الرغبة في ثواب الله و ابتغاء مرضاته سبحانه و لا أردت بما تكلفته غير ذلك و لا حول و لا قوة إلا بالله و هو حسبنا وَ نِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ

1. In the name of God, most Gracious, most Compassionate Praise be to Allah the One, the Eternal and the Ever living. One Whose limits and ends could not be imagined. Neither slumber overtakes Him nor sleep, the One Whose existence has no beginning and no end. He proves His existence for His creatures and for the birth of His creatures upon His eternal nature and He is needful of comparison with something in order that the creatures may be guided to Him. His signs are witnesses for His power. His being cannot be described and visions cannot perceive Him and thoughts cannot reach upto His being. He is such that nothing is like him and He is the hearer and seer. And I testify that there is no God except Allah the One without any partner. He has promised His rewards for His obedience and His punishment for His disobedience. And I testify that Muhammad (s. a. w. s) is His servant and His Messenger. He sent him with the illuminated and clear book and assured that falsehood will not approach it from front or back. It is the revelation of the Wise and the Praised Lord. And I testify that Amirul Momineen Ali Ibne Abi Talib (a. s.) and the Purified Imams from his progeny are the Proofs of Allah upon His creatures after the conclusion of revelations. And I testify that their partisans (Shias) and their devotees who follow their practice and manners are on the straight path and they are the true believers and one who opposes them and leaves their path and abandons their commands and does not follow their practice has deviated from the straight path and gone astray from the way. I beseech Allah that He makes us firm on their religion, their devotion and their love and not make our hearts deviated after being guided. And that He bestows us with His bestowals, indeed He is the best of the Givers. Says Ash-Shaykh Abu Ja’far Muhammad bin Ali bin al Husain bin Musa bin Babawahy al-Qummi (r. a): That which led me to write this book was the saying of the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s): “One who reminds (people) to do good deeds is like one who performs them himself.” I have titled this book as “Thawaabul A’amaal” and I implore the Almighty not to keep me deprived of its rewards. I have not desired anything by writing it except rewards of Almighty and to achieve His pleasure, glorified be He. And I do not intend by it anything else. And there is no power and strength except for Allah. And He is sufficient for us and the best of the trustees.

3. The Messenger of Allah (s. a. w. s.) said: Prompt your departed ones to say: ‘There is no god except Allah’ for it erases the sins. So they asked: O Messenger of Allah (s. a. w. s.), what if one recites this when one is healthy (alive)? The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) replied, “This (utterance) destroys the sins and finishes them off in any condition. Indeed “There is no God except Allah” is a friend and helper of man in life in death and in raising after death. The Messenger of Allah (s. a. w. s.) also said: Jibraeel said: O Muhammad! You shall see them when they are raised with shining countenances those who used to chant: There is no God except Allah and Allah is the greatest.” And those shall be black faced who used to say: “Woe be to you, you are ruined!”

They have what they can perform Hajj with, and we do not. They have what they can give in charity, and we do not. They have what they can struggle with in jihad, and we do not.' The Prophet (saw) said, 'Whoever glorifies Allah a hundred times, it is better than freeing a hundred slaves; whoever praises Allah a hundred times, it is better than leading a hundred camels; whoever says "La ilaha illa Allah" a hundred times, is the best in deeds on that day, except for someone who does more.' The rich heard about this and did the same. The poor returned to the Prophet and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, the wealthy have heard what you said and are doing it too.' He replied, 'That is the favor of Allah, which He gives to whom He wills, and Allah is the possessor of great favor.'"

3. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) says, “One who says Sub- h’aanallah Allah will plant a tree for him in Paradise. One who says Al-h’amdulillaah then too a tree will be planted for him in Paradise. Similarly, One who says Laa ilaaha illallaah then also Allah will plant a tree for him in Paradise. Allah will also plant a tree for one who recites Allaahu Akbar. A man of Quraish said: O the Messenger of Allah (s. a. w. s.), then there would be many trees in Paradise for us? Yes, but be careful that you do not send fire or they all would get burnt up. That is why the Almighty Allah said: O you who believe! Obey Allah and obey the Apostle, and do not make your deeds of no effect.

They replied, 'No, O Messenger of Allah.' He said, 'Shall I not inform you of something whose root is in the earth and its branches in the sky?' They said, 'Yes, O Messenger of Allah.' He said, 'One of you, upon completing the obligatory prayer, should say: Subhan Allah (Glory be to Allah), Alhamdulillah (Praise be to Allah), La ilaha illallah (There is no god but Allah), Allahu Akbar (Allah is Greater than what can be described); thirty times. For indeed, their root is in the earth and their branches are in the sky. They prevent destruction, fire, drowning, falling in a well, consumption by wild beasts, death due to accidents, and the affliction that descends from the sky upon the servant on that day. They are the en during good deeds.'"

All his sins between two ablutions will be wiped off. One who does not utter a name of Allah while performing ablution only the parts of body concerned with ablution will become pure and not his whole body.”

Reward of uttering a Name of Allah while performing ablution - Hadith 30526

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from Ali b. Ahmad al-Wasiti from his uncle Abdulrahman b. Katheer al-Hashimi, the slave of Muhammad b. Ali, from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: "Amir al-Mu'minin (AS) was sitting one day with Ibn al-Hanafiyyah, and he said, "O Muhammad, bring me a vessel with water in it, so I can perform ablution for prayer." Muhammad brought the water, and he (Amir al-Mu'minin) washed his right hand with his left hand, then he said, "In the name of Allah, praise be to Allah who has made water pure and not impure." He then performed istinja (cleaning the private parts) and said, "O Allah, protect my private parts, forgive me, cover my shame (nakedness), and prohibit the Hellfire from me." Afterward, he rinsed his mouth and said, "O Allah, grant me the ability to argue my case on the day I meet You and let my tongue speak with Your remembrance." He then sniffed water into his nose and said, "O Allah, do not deprive me of the scent of Paradise and make me among those who enjoy its fragrance, its scent, its aroma, and its perfume." Next, he washed his face and said, "O Allah, whiten my face on the day when faces will turn black, and do not make my face black on the day when faces will turn white." He then washed his right hand and said, "O Allah, grant me my book (of deeds) in my right hand and grant me eternity in the Gardens on my left, and make my reckoning an easy one." Afterward, he washed his left hand and said, "O Allah, do not give my book in my left hand, and do not make it tied to my neck, and I seek refuge in You from the severing of the Fire." He then wiped his head and said, "O Allah, shower me with Your mercy, blessings, and forgiveness." Then, he wiped his feet and said, "O Allah, make me steadfast on the Straight Path on the day when feet will slip, and let my effort please You, O Most Merciful of those who are merciful." Then he raised his head and looked at Muhammad and said, "O Muhammad, whoever performs ablution like my ablution and says like my saying, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, creates an angel from every drop, who sanctifies it, praises it, and magnifies it. Allah, the Exalted, records a reward for that until the Day of Resurrection."

Reward when the parts of body concerned with ablution are wiped and when they are not - Hadith 30528

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ سَلَمَهَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِیمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الثَّقَفِیِّ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ یَعْلَی عَنْ إِبْرَاهِیمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حُمْرَانَ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ وَ تَمَنْدَلَ کُتِبَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَهٌ وَ مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ وَ لَمْ یَتَمَنْدَلْ حَتَّی تَجِفَّ وَضُوؤُهُ کُتِبَتْ لَهُ ثَلَاثُونَ حَسَنَهً.

1. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) says, “One who recites: Allaahumma s’alli a’laa muh’ammadinw wa aali muh’ammad in his Ruku, his Sajdah and his Qiyam, Allah writes for him a reward like that of Ruku, Sajdah or Qiyam.”

Reward of Sajdah-e-Shukr - Hadith 30614

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ جَمِیلِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنْ ذَرِیحٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَیُّمَا مُؤْمِنٍ سَجَدَ لِلَّهِ سَجْدَهً لِشُکْرِ نِعْمَهٍ مِنْ غَیْرِ صَلَاهٍ کَتَبَ اللَّهُ بِهَا عَشْرَ حَسَنَاتٍ وَ مَحَا عَنْهُ عَشْرَ سَیِّئَاتٍ وَ رَفَعَ لَهُ عَشْرَ دَرَجَاتٍ فِی الْجِنَانِ.

Reward of Salaat - Hadith 30615

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُوسَی بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ عُبَیْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ وَاصِلِ بْنِ سُلَیْمَانَ وَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَا مِنْ صَلَاهٍ یَحْضُرُ وَقْتُهَا إِلَّا نَادَی مَلَکٌ بَیْنَ یَدَیِ النَّاسِ أَیُّهَا النَّاسُ قُومُوا إِلَی نِیرَانِکُمُ الَّتِی أَوْقَدْتُمُوهَا عَلَی ظُهُورِکُمْ فَأَطْفِئُوهَا بِصَلَاتِکُمْ.

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “Whenever the time of Salaat starts, an angel calls out to the people, ‘O people, stand up! Extinguish the fire, which you have lighted on your backs with the help of Salaat.”

2. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) says, “O Abdullah, when you offer an obligatory prayer, offer it on time. Else it is possible that you might lose the opportunity to do so. Focus your eyes on the place of your prostrations while offering Salaat. You pray carefully as if there is someone around you. Know that He is seeing you and you are not able to see Him.”

Reward of Salaat - Hadith 30617

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ الْحُسَیْنِ السَّعْدَآبَادِیُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَرْقِیِّ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ جَمِیلٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: لِلْمُصَلِّی ثَلَاثُ خِصَالٍ إِذَا قَامَ فِی صَلَاتِهِ یَتَنَاثَرُ عَلَیْهِ الْبِرُّ مِنْ أَعْنَانِ السَّمَاءِ إِلَی مَفْرَقِ رَأْسِهِ وَ تَحُفُّ بِهِ الْمَلَائِکَهُ مِنْ قَدَمَیْهِ إِلَی أَعْنَانِ السَّمَاءِ وَ مَلَکٌ یُنَادِی أَیُّهَا الْمُصَلِّی لَوْ تَعْلَمُ مَنْ تُنَاجِی مَا انْفَتَلْتَ.

3. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Musa b. al-Mutawakil who said it was narrated to me by Ali b. al-Hussain al-Sa’dabadi from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah al-Barqi from his father from Muhammad b. Abi ’Umayr from Jameel from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “There are three benefits of Salaat – whenever a person stands for Salaat, good deeds descend on him from all the corners of the heaven, angels surround that person from the place under his feet till the heaven and an angel calls out, ‘O worshipper! If you had known to Whom you are supplicating you would have never missed it.”

Reward of offering Morning Salaat in its prime time - Hadith 30618

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُوسَی الْخَشَّابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَبَلَهَ عَنْ غِیَاثِ بْنِ کَلُّوبٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع یَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَخْبِرْنِی عَنْ أَفْضَلِ الْمَوَاقِیتِ فِی صَلَاهِ الْفَجْرِ قَالَ مَعَ طُلُوعِ الْفَجْرِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَی یَقُولُ- إِنَّ قُرْآنَ الْفَجْرِ کانَ مَشْهُوداً یَعْنِی صَلَاهَ الْفَجْرِ تَشْهَدُهَا مَلَائِکَهُ النَّهَارِ وَ مَلَائِکَهُ اللَّیْلِ فَإِذَا صَلَّی الْعَبْدُ صَلَاهَ الصُّبْحِ مَعَ طُلُوعِ الْفَجْرِ أُثْبِتَتْ لَهُ مَرَّتَیْنِ تُثْبِتُهَا مَلَائِکَهُ اللَّیْلِ وَ مَلَائِکَهُ النَّهَارِ.

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan from Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from al-Hassan b. Musa al-Khashab from Abdillah b. Jabalah from Ghiyath b. Kalub from Ishaq b. Ammar who said: I asked Abi Abdillah (a. s.): "Oh Aba Abdillah, inform me about the best times during the Fajr prayer." He replied: "It is at the time of the dawn. Verily, Allah, the Most High, says, 'Indeed, the recitation of the Qur'an at dawn is ever witnessed.' (17:78). Meaning, it is witnessed by the angels of the day and the angels of the night. So when the servant prays Salaat al-Subh at the start of dawn, its reward would be noted down twice, noted by the angels of the night and the angels of the day.”

1. Abi (rah) from Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ahmad b. Muhammad from al-Hassan b. Mahbub from Sa’d b. Abi Khalaf from Abi al-Hassan Musa (a. s.) who said: “If an obligatory prayer is offered in prime time fulfilling all the conditions a sweet smell would come out from it just like the sweet smell that comes out when a branch of tree is broken. Hence it is obligatory on you to offer Salaat at its prime time.”

1. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “One who recites after the conclusion of Friday Prayer, Surah Hamd once, Surah Qul a-oo’dhubirabbil falaq seven times, then Surah Hamd once and Surah Qul huwallaahu ah’ad seven times, then Surah Hamd once and Surah Qul a-oo’dhubirabbin Naas, no calamity would befall him and he won’t be involved in any mischief. Further if he says: Allaahummaj a’lnee min ahlil jannatillatee h’ashwuhaa barakatunw wa u’mmaaruhal malaa-ikatu ma-a’ nabiyyeenaa muh’ammadinw wa abeenaa ibraaheem Allah would keep him in Daarus Salaam (Paradise) along with Muhammad (s. a. w. s.) and Ibrahim (a. s.).”

1. Amirul Momineen (a. s.) says, “Whenever people of the earth commit sins or get involved in wrong deeds, the Almighty Allah intends to send down His chastisement on the people of the world. However when He sees elderly people walking towards Salaat and young children learning Quran, He feels pity on them and postpones it.”

1. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) narrates from his father that a person asked the reward of remaining awake at night and reciting the Holy Quran to Amirul Momineen (a. s.). Amirul Momineen (a. s.) replied, “There are glad tidings for him. One who offers Salaat in one-tenth part of night seeking reward from Allah, the Almighty Allah says to His angels, ‘Note down the good deeds for this servant of Mine equal to the number of all the grains, leaves, trees and meadows’. One who offers Salaat for one-ninth part of night Allah grants him ten recommended supplications and hands over his scroll of deeds on the Day of Judgment in his right hand. One who offers Salaat for one-eighth part of night Almighty Allah grants him the reward of a martyr who was patient and had pure intention and Almighty Allah would also accept his intercession. One who offers Salaat for one- seventh part of night he would come out of his grave in such a state that his face would be shinning like a full moon and he would pass on the Sirat Bridge along with the protecte ones of Allah. One who offers Salaat for one-sixth part of night would be counted among those who repent and his sins committed in past and future would be forgiven. One who spends one-fifth part of night offering Salaat would get a place in Maqbara-e-Ibrahim (a. s.). One who offers Salaat for one-fourth part of night would be considered first among the successful people for he would pass through the Sirat Bridge like a strong wind and enter Paradise without accounting of his deeds. One who offers Salaat for one-third part of night every angel whom he will meet will say to him, ‘I wish even my position would have been so near to Allah like yours’. That person would be given the choice of entering Paradise through any of the eight doors. One who offers Salaat for half part of night giving him whole earth filled with gold seventy thousand times would not be sufficient as his reward. The reward of this deed is more than that of freeing seventy slaves from the progeny of Ismail (a. s.). One who prays for two-third part of a night would be given rewards equal to the number of grains of sand on earth and the weight of smallest deed would be equal to that of Mt. Ohad. One who involves himself in Salaat, Ruku and recitation of the Holy Quran he would be given a great reward. The smallest reward given to him is that he would be cleansed of his sins as he was on the day he was born. He would be given rewards and positions equal to the number of all creatures of Allah. His grave would remain illuminated forever. Sins and jealousy would be removed from his heart. He would be given salvation from the chastisement of grave. He would be given freedom from Hell. All those who were in his protection would be resurrected along with him. The Almighty Allah will say to the angels, ‘O My angels! See this servant of Mine. He used to remain awake at night for the sake of My pleasure. Give him peace in Paradise. There are a hundred thousand cities in Paradise for him and all of them have all the things required to satisfy the desires of the eyes and the hunger of one’s heart. You won’t believe that I am going to give him more honor and proximity to Myself’.”

What is this time of unawareness?” He replied, “It is between Maghrib and Isha prayers.”

4. And it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan (rah) from Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from al-Abbas b. Ma’ruf from Ali b. Mahziyar from Hamad b. Isa from Yahya b. Umar from Ishaq b. Ammar who said: “If that is so, you should remain assured that you will get excessive wealth. Glad tiding to you for excessive wealth.”

5. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates from his predecessors that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “Whenever a pilgrim intends to go for a Hajj, Allah writes ten rewards for him, wipes his ten sins and increases his position by ten levels even before he has bought a single thing for his journey. When he intends to board the vehicle, Allah gives him the above mentioned reward even before he has set his foot on it. When he performs the circumambulation of the House of Allah his sins are wiped off. When he performs Saee between Safa and Marwa, he becomes pure of his sins. When he halts at Arafah, his sins vanish. When he camps in Mashar he comes out of his sins. When he performs stoning at Jimaraat, all his sins are wiped off. Similarly, the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) narrated all the acts of Hajj and said that all these acts wipe the sins of a person. Then he said, “How can you reach the position of a Hajj pilgrim?”

Reward of Hajj and Umrah - Hadith 30668

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ الْحُسَیْنِ السَّعْدَآبَادِیُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ یَزِیدَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع یَقُولُ الْحَاجُّ إِذَا دَخَلَ مَکَّهَ وَکَّلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِهِ مَلَکَیْنِ یَحْفَظَانِ عَلَیْهِ طَوَافَهُ وَ صَلَاتَهُ وَ سَعْیَهُ فَإِذَا وَقَفَ بِعَرَفَهَ ضَرَبَا عَلَی مَنْکِبِهِ الْأَیْمَنِ ثُمَّ قَالا أَمَّا مَا مَضَی فَقَدْ کُفِیتَهُ فَانْظُرْ کَیْفَ تَکُونُ فِیمَا یَسْتَقْبِلُ.

6. The narrator says that he heard Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) say, “When a Hajj pilgrim enters Mecca, Allah allots two angels for protecting him during circumambulation, Salaat and Saee. When he halts in Arafah, he is patted on his right shoulder and told, ‘Your past sins are forgiven. See how you spend your future life’.”

7. A person told Imam Zainul Abideen (a. s.), “You did not perform Jihad as it was difficult and performed Hajj as it is easy.” Imam was resting his back against the wall. He sat up straight and said, “Woe be on you. The saying of the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) at the time of the Last Hajj did not reach you. Surely, the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) conveyed to people through Bilal at sunset to keep quiet. When people fell silent, the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “The Almighty Allah has made this day blessed for you. He has forgiven righteous among you and accepted their intercession for those who sinned. Go away for you are forgiven and you have gained the pleasure of Allah for those among you who were sinners.”

[حَدَّثَنِی حَمْزَهُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ره قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِیمَ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ یَحْیَی وَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِیَهَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: لَمَّا أَفَاضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص تَلَقَّاهُ أَعْرَابِیٌّ فِی أَفْطَحَ فَقَالَ یَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّی خَرَجْتُ أُرِیدُ الْحَجَّ فَعَاقَنِی عَائِقٌ وَ أَنَا رَجُلٌ مَلِیٌّ کَثِیرُ الْمَالِ فَمُرْنِی مَا أَصْنَعُ فِی مَالِی مَا أَبْلُغُ مَا بَلَغَ الْحَاجُّ قَالَ فَالْتَفَتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِلَی أَبِی قُبَیْسٍ فَقَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ أَبَا قُبَیْسٍ لَکَ زِنَهَ ذَهَبَهٍ حَمْرَاءَ أَنْفَقْتَهُ فِی سَبِیلِ اللَّهِ مَا بَلَغْتَ مَا بَلَغَ الْحَاجُّ.

8. [it was narrated to me by Hamzah b. Muhammad (rah) who said I was informed by Ali b. Ibrahim from his father from Safwan b. Yahya and Muhammad b. Abi ’Umayr from Muawiyah b. Ammar from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “O Messenger of Allah (s. a. w. s.)! I have come to perform Hajj but I am not able to do so because of some problem. I have wealth; tell me something, which I can do and gain the reward of performing Hajj.” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) pointed at Mount Abu Qubais and replied, “If you have a quantity of red gold equal to Mount Abu Qubais and you spend it in the way of Allah then too you won’t get the reward of Hajj.”

Reward of Hajj and Umrah - Hadith 30671

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع الْحَاجُّ یَصْدُرُونَ عَلَی ثَلَاثِ أَصْنَافٍ صِنْفٌ یُعْتَقُ مِنَ النَّارِ وَ صِنْفٌ یَخْرُجُ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ کَهَیْئَهِ یَوْمَ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ وَ صِنْفٌ یُحْفَظُ فِی أَهْلِهِ وَ مَالِهِ فَذَاکَ أَدْنَی مَا یَرْجِعُ بِهِ الْحَاجُّ.

9. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) says, “The people who return from Hajj are of three types – some are freed from the fire of Hell, some become pure of their sins like they were on the day their mothers gave them birth and some protect their family and wealth. These are minimum benefits for a Hajj pilgrim.”

Reward of Hajj and Umrah - Hadith 30672

10. The narrator says that he heard Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) say, “The reward of performing Hajj is more than freeing ten slaves.” Imam (a. s.) kept on counting till he said that the reward of the acts of Hajj is more than freeing seventy slaves and said that the reward of circumambulation and a two rakat prayer are equal to freeing a slave.”

11. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Musa b. al-Mutawakil who said it was narrated to me by Ali b. al-Hussain al-Sa’dabadi from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah al-Barqi from Ibn Abi ’Umayr from Muawiyah b. Ammar from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “Allah, the Blessed and the High, has positioned one hundred twenty bounties around Mecca. Out of that sixty are for those who perform circumambulation, forty for those who offer Salaat and twenty for the spectators.”

12. And from the previous chain from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah from Ibn Abi Basheer from Mansur from Ishaq b. Ammar from Muhammad b. Muslim from Abi al-Hassan (a. s.) who said: “Every pilgrim should enter Mecca for Hajj with extreme humility. When he enters Masjidul Haraam, he should take small steps out of the fear of Allah. He should perform circumambulation of the Holy Kaaba and offer two rakat Salaat. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime would note seventy thousand rewards for him, wipe his seventy thousand sins, increase his position seventy thousand levels, fulfill his seventy thousand wishes and grant him the reward of freeing seventy thousand slaves each costing ten thousand dirhams.”

4. The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) says, “Know that Rajab is a great month of Allah. It is called Asam because there is no month so dear and excellent for Allah except this. It was respected even during the time of ignorance. When Islam arrived, it too increased the greatness and excellence of this month. Know that Rajab is the month of Allah, Shaban is my month and Ramadan is the month of my Ummah. Know that if a faithful person fasts seeking reward from Allah he has gained lots of pleasure of Allah. The fast of that person would end the anger of Allah upon him; a door of Hell would be closed for him. The reward of this fast with pure intention is better than giving an earth filled with gold as charity. No object in this world can make his reward complete except good deeds. As soon as night falls, Allah would fulfill his ten wishes. If he prays for worldly life his prayers would be accepted. One who prays for His friends, lovers and chosen people, Allah would accept his prayers. One who observes two fasts in the month of Rajab nothing in the earth and heavens can imagine the greatness of that person. He would get the reward of a truthful person who has never lied in his whole life-time. He would appear on the Day of Judgment in the similar state. That person would do intercession of others along with other truthful people till they all enter Paradise and settle down with those truthful persons. One who fasts for three days in Rajab, Allah would erect a barrier between him and Hell whose distance would be equal to travel of seventy years. Allah would say at the time of Iftar, ‘You have right upon Me and My love for you has become obligatory. O angels! I hold you witness that I have forgiven his sins from start till the end’. One who fasts for four days in the month of Rajab, he will remain safe from calamities like the evils of Jinns, leprosy, leucoderma, mischief of Dajjal and the punishment of grave. He would get the reward of wise persons who repent. He would be handed over the scroll of deeds in his right hand and made to stand in the first row of worshippers. One who fasts for five days in the month of Rajab it is the duty of Allah to please him on the Day of Judgment. His face would be shinning like the full moon when he is resurrected on the Day of Judgment. Rewards equal to the number of grains of sand would be written for him and he would be made to enter Paradise without any accounting. He would be given choice to ask whatever he wants from Allah. One who fasts for six days in the month of Rajab, his face would be brighter than sun when he is resurrected on the Day of Judgment. Apart from this, he would be given extra light, which would light up all those gathered on that day. He would be gathered along with protected people and would pass through the Sirat Bridge without any accounting. His sins as great as disobeying parents and breaking relations will be forgiven. One who fasts for seven days in the month of Rajab, Allah would close all seven doors of Hell for him and prohibit the fire of Hell for his body. One who fasts for eight days in the month of Rajab, Allah would open all eight doors of Paradise for him one by one and he would be given choice to enter Paradise from whichever door he wishes. One who fasts for nine days in Rajab would come out of his grave saying Laa ilaaha illallaah and would not see anything except Paradise. The light of his face would brighten the people gathered on that day and people would think of him as a prophet. The minimum reward given to him at that time is entrance to Paradise without any accounts. One who fasts for ten days in Rajab would be given two emerald wings decorated by illuminating pearls and rubies. He would enter Paradise flying over the Sirat Bridge with the help of these wings. He would be counted among the just and dear ones of Allah. He is like one who prayed for a hundred years with the pure intention of seeking reward from Allah. One who fasts for eleven days in Rajab, there would be no one greater in front of Allah than him except one who has fasted more than him. One who fasts for twelve days in Rajab would be made to wear two dresses of brocade and silk. If one of those dresses is brought to this world it would illuminate the world from east to west and scent the world with fragrance better than musk. One who observes thirteen fasts in Rajab, a table would be spread under the shade of the Divine throne and a number of eatables would be laid on it for him. The span of this table would be seventy times the area of this earth. Trays made of brocade and rubies will be laid on it. Every tray would have seventy thousand types of eatables each having distinct aroma and color. That person would have food from this table while others would be involved in a great difficulty. One who fasts for fourteen days in Rajab, Allah would grant him huge palaces made of pearls and rubies of such kind that eyes have neither seen nor ears heard about nor can a human mind imagine them. One who fasts for fifteen days in Rajab would stand at the place of faithful people. Every angel, messenger and apostle passing by him would say, ‘Congratulations, for you are in peace, near to Allah, honest, fortunate and happy and would rest in gardens’. One who fasts for sixteen days in Rajab would be among those who are first to ride upon the vehicles of bright light. He would fly from Paradise to the door of Mercy in these vehicles. One who observes seventeen fasts in Rajab, seventy thousand lamps would be illuminated for him at the Sirat Bridge so that he enters Paradise passing the bridge in the light of these lamps. Angels would welcome him saying, ‘Well done’ and ‘Peace be upon you’. One who fasts for eighteen days in Rajab would be given a place on the thrones made of pearls and rubies in the Minaret of Ibrahim in Paradise. One who fasts for nineteen days in the month of Rajab, Almighty Allah would construct a palace of pearls for him facing the palaces of Adam (a. s.) and Ibrahim (a. s.). He would salute them and they too would salute him and respect his position. He would be given the reward of a thousand fasts for each fast. One who observes fast for twenty days in Rajab it is as if he has worshipped Allah for a thousand years. One who fasts for twenty-one days in Rajab, on the Day of Judgment he would get to intercede for people numbering the sinners of Rabi and Mudhir tribes. One who fasts for twenty-two days in Rajab a caller would give call from heaven, ‘O friend of Allah! There are glad- tidings for you. There is great honor for you in Allah’s eyes. You are friend of prophets, truthful ones, martyrs and the virtuous upon whom Allah has revealed His bounties and mercy. They are your best friends’. One who fasts for twenty-three days in Rajab a call would be given from heaven, ‘O slave of Allah! You are fortunate. You have taken less pain and you are getting much more benefit. The veil is taken off from you. You are rewarded greatly by your Lord. You will be a neighbor of Khaleel (Prophet Ibrahim) in Darus Salaam. One who observes fast for twenty-four days in Rajab the Angel of death would come to him in the form of a handsome youth wearing a green brocade dress mounted on a green horse of Paradise. He would be holding a golden cup decorated with a green silk more fragrant than musk filled with the pure wine of Paradise. He would make that person drink that wine while taking his soul away. The difficulties at death-bed would be eased for him and his soul would be wrapped in green silk. Such a sweet fragrance would come out if it that all the inhabitants of seven heavens would be scented with it. He would remain satisfied in his grave as well as when he would be resurrected until he reaches the cistern of the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.). One who fasts for twenty-five days in Rajab would be surrounded by seventy thousand angels, each holding an umbrella made of pearls and rubies when he is resurrected from the grave. They would have ornaments and excellent dresses. They would say, ‘O dear one of Allah! Let us go to Him soon’. Then he would go to Paradise first along with the dear ones of Allah. Indeed it is a great success. One who fasts for twenty-six days in Rajab the Almighty Allah would build a hundred palaces of pearls and rubies under the shade of His throne. There would be a tent made of red silk of Paradise in front of each palace. While people would be busy in accounting of their deeds, this person would rest over here peacefully. One who observes fast for twenty- seven days in Rajab, the Almighty Allah will expand his grave to the distance covered in four hundred years and the whole area would be fragranced with Amber and Musk. One who fasts for twenty-eight days in Rajab Allah would create a distance of nine barriers between him and the fire of Hell. The width of each barrier is equal to the distance covered in five hundred years between the earth and heaven. For a person who fasts for twenty-nine days in Rajab Allah would forgive him even if he would have robbed every man on the order of an unjust or even if she is a woman who has been unchaste seventy times. One who fasts for thirty days in the month of Rajab a caller would call out, ‘O slave of Allah! Your past sins are forgiven. Your deeds can have a new beginning’. Allah would grant him all the gardens and every garden would have forty thousand cities. Every city would have forty palaces and every palace would have forty thousand houses and every house will have forty thousand dining tables and every dining table would have forty thousand dishes and every dish would have forty thousand types of cuisines each having a distinct color and aroma. Every house will have forty thousand golden thrones and the span of those thrones would be equal to two thousand hands. A virgin Hoorul Ein would be seated on each throne having three hundred thousand dazzling hair on their heads and each lock of hair would be held by one thousand slave-girls who will be scenting it with musk and amber so that the person who fasted during Rajab comes near her. All this is for the person who fasted for the whole month of Rajab.” Someone asked, “O Messenger of Allah! What should a person do who is not able to observe fast for the whole month due to weakness, menstruation or some other reason?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “They should give food to poor as charity. I swear by Him in Whose control is my life that they would get much more than what I have said if they give charity daily. All the creatures of this earth and the heavens cannot even estimate one-tenth of the reward, which that person would get in Paradise.” Someone asked, “O Messenger of Allah! What should a person do who is not able to pay charity also?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “He should recite the following Tasbeeh of Allah a hundred times daily for thirty days in the month of Rajab: ‘Sub-h’aanal ilaahil jaleeli sub-h’aana mallaa yambaghit tasbeeh’u illaa lahu sub-h’aanal a-a’zzil akrami sub-h’aana mallabisal i’zza wahuwa lahu ahl’.

16. It was narrated to us by Muhammad b. Ibrahim who said it was narrated to us by al-Hassan b. Muhammad al-Maroozi from his father from Yahya b. Abbas from Ali b. ’Amir al-Wasiti who said I was informed by ’Ata b. al-Sayib from Sa’eed b. Jubayr from Ibn ’Amir who said: “One who fasts for one day in Shaban, Allah writes from him seventy rewards and each reward will be equal to that of worshipping Allah for a year. One who fasts for two days, He would save him from those sins, which destroy a person. One who fasts for three days, his position in Paradise would increased by seventy levels with pearls and rubies. One who fasts for four days in Paradise his earnings would increase greatly. One who fasts for five days would be loved by the people. One who fasts for six days, Allah would keep away seventy types of calamities from him. One who fasts for seven days he would remain safe from the mischief and evil thoughts of Satan and his gangs. One who fasts for eight days won’t go thirsty from this world and would be satisfied by a pure cistern. One who fasts for nine days, Munkir and Nakir would be lenient with him while questioning in the grave. One who fasts for ten days his grave would expand by seventy spans. One who fasts for eleven days his grave would be lit up by eleven minarets of light. One who fasts for twelve days seventy thousand angels would visit his grave every day till the Day of Judgment. One who fasts for thirteen days angels of all seven heavens would repent for him. One who fasts for fourteen days all the terrestrial and aquatic animals will be ordered to seek forgiveness for him. One who fasts for fifteen days, the Almighty Allah calls out, ‘I assure you by My Honor that I won’t burn you in the fire of Hell’. One who fasts for sixteen days, seventy rivers of fire will be extinguished for him. One who fasts for seventeen days all the doors of Hell would be closed for him. One who fasts for eighteen days in Shaban all the doors of Paradise would be opened for him. One who fasts for nineteen days would be given seventy thousand palaces made of pearls and rubies in Paradise. One who fasts for twenty days would be married to seventy thousand Hoorul Ein. One who fasts for twenty-one, days angels would congratulate him and keep moving their wings on his body. One who fasts for twenty-two days would be made to wear seventy thousand dresses made of satin and brocade. One who fasts for twenty-three days would be made to sit on a bright mount and roam throughout Paradise. One who fasts for twenty-four days would intercede for seventy thousand people who believed in the Oneness of Allah. One who fasts for twenty-five days hypocrisy would be kept away from him. One who fasts for twenty-six days Allah would give him permit to pass through the Sirat Bridge. One who fasts for twenty-seven days Allah orders to give him freedom from Hell. One who fasts for twenty-eight days his face would be illuminated and light would emanate from his face. One who fasts for twenty-nine days Almighty Allah would please him. One who fasts for thirty days in Shaban Jibraeel (a. s.) would stand in front of Divine throne and call out, ‘O person! Your deeds have a new beginning for your pasts sins have been forgiven’. The Almighty Allah would say, ‘I would forgive you even if the number of your sins is equal to the number of stars in the skies, or drops of rain, or leaves of trees, or grains of sand, or drops of dew or number of days of the world. This reward and forgiveness for fasting in the month of Shaban is not much for Allah.” Ibne Abbas says that this reward is for the month of Shaban only.

Sa'eed, from Ibn Abi 'Umayr, he said: Ahmad b. al-Nadr al-Khazzaz narrated to me, from 'Amr b. Shimr, from Jabir, from Abu Ja'far (AS), he said: "O Jabir! Whoever enters the month of Ramadan and fasts its days, stands in prayer during its nights, guards his chastity, guards his tongue, lowers his gaze, and refrains from harming others, he will emerge free of sins as the day his mother bore him." I said: "May I be your ransom! How excellent is this hadith!" He said: "How stringent is its condition."

2. Muhammad ibn al-Hasan narrated to us, saying: Al-Husayn b. al-Hasan b. Aban narrated to us, from al-Husayn b. Saʻeed, from al-Husayn b. ʻUlwan, from ʻAmr b. Shimr, from Jabir, from Abu Jaʻfar (as) who said: The Messenger of Allah (SW), upon seeing the crescent moon of Ramadan, would turn towards the Qiblah and say: اللَّهُمَّ أَهِلَّهُ عَلَیْنَا بِالْأَمْنِ وَ الْإِیمَانِ وَ السَّلَامَهِ وَ الْإِسْلَامِ وَ الْعَافِیَهِ الْمُجَلِّلَهِ وَ الرِّزْقِ الْوَاسِعِ وَ دَفْعِ الْأَسْقَامِ وَ تِلَاوَهِ الْقُرْآنِ وَ الْعَوْنِ عَلَی الصَّلَاهِ وَ الصِّیَامِ اللَّهُمَّ سَلِّمْنَا لِشَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ سَلِّمْهُ لَنَا وَ تَسَلَّمْهُ مِنَّا حَتَّی یَنْقَضِیَ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ وَ قَدْ غَفَرْتَ لَنَا "O Allah! Let it bring us security, faith, safety, Islam, abundant sustenance, prevention of diseases, Quranic recitation, assistance in prayers and fasting. O Allah! Safeguard us for the month of Ramadan, safeguard it for us, and accept it from us until the month of Ramadan completes and You forgive us.” Then he would turn to the people and say: 'O Muslims! When the crescent of the month of Ramadan appears, the rebellious devils are shackled, the gates of heavens, the gates of Paradise, and the gates of Mercy are opened, and the gates of Hellfire are closed, and supplications are answered. A large number of people are freed by Allah at the time of Iftar daily. A caller calls out every night, “Is there anyone who has a wish, Is there any seeker of forgiveness? O Allah! Reward everyone who spends in Your way and ruin the wealth of every miser till the moon of the month of Shawwal appears.” Abu Jaʻfar (as) said: "By Him in Whose hand is my soul, it is not the day of receiving the dinars and dirhams."

Abi Nasr from Aban from Abi Ja’far (a. s.) who said: "When the Prophet (sw) returned from 'Arafat and proceeded to Mina, he entered the mosque, and people gathered around him asking about the Night of Qadr. He stood as a preacher and said, after praising Allah, 'Now then, which of you asked me about the Night of Qadr? I did not withhold it from you because I did not know about it. Know, O people, that whoever witnesses the month of Ramadan while being healthy and sound, fasts during its days, spends a portion of its nights in prayer, maintains his prayers, attends the Friday prayers, and sets out for the Eid prayer, has indeed attained the Night of Qadr and has earned the reward of the Lord.’ Then Abu Abdullah (as) said: 'By Allah, he has earned rewards that are unlike the rewards given by people.'"

4. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) says that the month of Ramadan was nearing and three days of Shaban were left when the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) told Bilal (r. a.) to call people to him. When people came, the Holy Prophet mounted the pulpit and praised and glorified the Lord. Then he said, “The month, which you are going to have now is supreme among all other months. There is a night in this month, which is better than a thousand months. The doors of Hell are closed in this month and the doors of Paradise are opened. One who is not forgiven in this month also Allah distances him. Similarly, a person has parents and is not able to get himself forgiven Allah distances him. One who does not recite Salawat when my name is mentioned in front of him, his salvation is not possible and Allah distances him.”

5. And from the previous chain from al-Hussain b. Sa’eed from al-Hussain b. Alwan from ’Amru b. Shimr from ’Amru b. Khalid from Zayd b. Ali from his forefathers from Ali (a. s.) who said: ‘Call upon Me, I will answer you’. You have been given the assurance of acceptance of supplications. Seven angels are appointed for arresting each Satan so that none can overpower you till the end of this month. Know that, the doors of heaven are opened from the first night of Ramadan and that the supplications in this month are always accepted.”

6. It is narrated that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “Surely, the Almighty Allah frees a large number of people on every night of the month of Ramadan. However one who concludes his fast with an intoxicant won’t be freed. The number of people freed in one night of the month of 2 Surah Momin 40:60 Ramadan is equal to the number of people freed in all the past nights.”

7. And it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Musa b. al-Mutawakil who said it was narrated to me by Abdillah b. Ja’far al-Himyari who said it was narrated to us by al-Hassan b. Mahbub al-Zarrad who said it was narrated to us by Abu Ayoob’ from Abi Ja’far (a. s.) who said: “Allah is Merciful and He grant this reward to that person also who gives a little milk or a glass of drink or a few dates to others for Iftar. A person who is kind to slaves in this month, the Almighty Allah would be kind to him in accounting of his deeds. This is a month whose beginning is with mercy, middle is forgiveness and the end is with acceptance of supplications and freedom from Hell. There are four characteristics, which you cannot avoid. With two of them, you can please Allah and you cannot neglect the other two also. They are bearing witness that there is no lord except Allah and that I am His Messenger. And the two things, which you cannot avoid, are that you seek Paradise and protection against the fire of Hell from Allah.”

8. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) narrates that the month of Ramadan was nearing and three days of Shaban were left when the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) told Bilal (r. a.) to call people to him. When people came, the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) mounted the pulpit and praised and glorified the Lord. Then he said, “The month, which you are going to have now is supreme among all other months. There is a night in this month, which is better than a thousand months. The doors of Hell are closed in this month and the doors of Paradise are opened. One who is not forgiven in this month also then Allah distances him. Similarly if a person has parents and is not able to get himself forgiven then Allah distances him. One who does not recite Salawat when I am mentioned in front of him, his salvation is not possible and Allah distances him.”

9. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) says at the end of a lengthy tradition, “In the month of Ramadan, the doors of heavens are opened, satans are shackled in chains and the deeds of believers are accepted. Ramadan is an excellent month. It was also called the al-Marzooq (a month in which bounties are given) during the time of the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.).”

11. The narrator asked Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.), “Allah says, ‘Surely We revealed it (Quran) on a blessed night’, so which is that blessed night?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “It is the night of Qadr (power), which is one of the last ten nights of the month of Ramadan. The Holy Quran was revealed in the night of Qadr only. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime says, ‘The fate of everything would be decided by the Divine order in this night’. All the good and bad, obedience and disobedience, birth and death, earnings etc. are decided by the Will of Allah for the whole year in this night only.” The narrator asked, “What is the meaning of verse: ‘The grand night is better than a thousand months’?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “The reward of good deeds performed in this night is better than that of doing the same for a thousand months without the night of Qadr. If the Almighty Allah wouldn’t have multiplied the reward for a believer they wouldn’t have got it but He multiplies the reward for them.”

The Almighty Allah wipes out all the apparent and hidden sins of the people of my Ummah on the first night of Ramadan and increases the position of people by two hundred thousand levels and builds fifty cities in Paradise for them. He grants the reward of worship of one year, the reward of a prophet and the reward of fasting of one year for each step taken on the next day.” “On the third day, domes decorated with pearls and rubies are made in Paradise for you equaling the number of hair on your body. There will be twelve thousand illuminated houses in it – below and above. There will be twelve thousand beds in each house and a Hoor would be seated on each bed. One thousand Angels would come to you with gifts daily. The Almighty Allah would grant you seventy thousand palaces in Paradise on the fourth day.

He would note down the reward of four Hajjs performed along with the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) and reward of four Umrahs performed by a martyr or a truthful person. The twelfth day would convert your sins to good deeds, double your good deeds and further multiply them a hundred thousand times.

On the fourteenth day, you would be offered the reward of meeting Adam, Nuh, Ibrahim, Musa, Dawood, Sulaiman and worshipping Allah for two thousand years with each prophet.

And Allah would give you the reward of the people of Badr on the Day of Judgment. The reward of the nineteenth day is that all the angels of earth and heaven would come to your grave taking permission from Allah and every angel would be carrying gifts and drinks for you. On the twentieth day, Allah would appoint seventy thousand angels for you who would save you from the mischief of Satan and they would write the reward of the fasts of a hundred years for each fast.

He would note down the reward of worship of one year for each feather of Jibraeel. He would grant you the reward of Tasbeeh of Arsh and Kursi; grant you Hoorul Ein equal to the number of verses in the Holy Quran. The reward of the twenty-first day is that Allah would expand your grave by a thousand parasangs and keep darkness and fear away from it. He would include your grave among those of the martyrs and your face would resemble Yusuf bin Yaqoob (a. s.). The reward of the twenty-second day is that Allah would send the Angel of death to you in the same way as He sends him to the prophets. He would take away the fear of Munkir and Nakir from you and keep away the sorrow of this world and the chastisement of the grave. The reward of the twenty- third day is that you will pass through the Sirat Bridge along with prophets, truthful ones, martyrs and the virtuous. You will be rewarded as if you have fed every orphan and dressed every naked of my Ummah. The reward of the twenty-fourth day is that no person among you would go from this world until he sees his place in Paradise. You would be given the reward of a thousand sick persons and that of a traveler who started from his home in the way of Allah. You would be granted the reward of freeing one thousand slaves from the progeny of Ismail (a. s.).

The Almighty Allah will say, ‘O Ummah of Muhammad (s. a. w. s.)! I am your Lord and you are My slaves. Sit in the domes constructed under the shade of My throne. Eat and drink for there is no fear or sorrow for you. O Ummah of Muhammad (s. a. w. s.)! I swear by My Honor that I would surely send you to Paradise. The first and last communities would be surprised on seeing you and you would be given an illuminated crown and you would be made to ride a camel created from light, whose bridles will be of light. There will be a thousand circles on it and an angel would be standing on each circle holding a pillar of light in his hand and you will be made to enter Paradise without any accounting of deeds. Allah would look upon you with mercy on the twenty-sixth day; He would forgive all your sins except that of murdering or usurping property and purify your house seventy times a day from backbiting and imputation. On the twenty-seventh day, you will be granted the reward of helping all the believers, men as well as women, and the reward of dressing seventy thousand naked persons, helping one thousand soldiers and reciting the Holy Scriptures revealed on all prophets. On the twenty- eighth day, the Almighty Allah would build a hundred thousand houses of light in Behisht-e-Javed for you. He would reward you a hundred thousand houses made of silver in Jannat-e-Maawa and a hundred thousand houses made of pure amber in Jannat-e-Naeem. He would reward you a hundred thousand cities in Jannat-e-Firdaus, each city having a thousand rooms. He would reward you a hundred thousand pulpits of musk in Jannat-e-Khuld and there would be a thousand houses made of saffron in the boundaries of each pulpit and each house will have a thousand beds made of pearls and rubies and a Hoorul Ein would be sitting on each bed who would be your wife. On the twenty-ninth day, He would reward you a hundred thousand localities and each locality will have an illuminated dome and every dome will have a bed made of white camphor, every bed will have one thousand carpets of green brocade and a Hoorul Ein would be sitting on each carpet having seventy thousand high quality dresses and they would have eighty thousand hairs on their heads decorated with pearls and rubies. When thirty days are over, the Almighty Allah would grant you the reward of a thousand martyrs, a thousand truthful ones and the worship of fifty years for each day passed. He would note down the reward of two thousand fasts for every single fast. He would increase your position by levels equal to the number of things grown by the water of river Nile. You would be given freedom from Hell, permit to pass through the Sirat Bridge and protection from chastisement. The door of Paradise named Rayyaan, which will not open till Qiyamat would be opened for the men and women of the Ummah of Muhammad (s. a. w. s.) who observe fast and Rizwan, the treasurer of Paradise would give a call, ‘O Ummah of Muhammad! Move towards Rayyan.’ Then my people will enter this door into Paradise. Thus one who could not be forgiven in this month will not be forgiven in any other month. There is no power or strength except with the Greatest Lord!’

1. It is narrated that Ali (a. s.) used to recite this blessed supplication during the first ten days of Zilhajj. He used to say that if one recites the supplication: ‘Laa ilaaha illallaahu a’dadal layaalee wadduhoori laa ilaaha illallaahu a’dada amwaajil buh’oori laa ilaaha illallaahu wa rah’matuhu khairum mimmaa yaj-maoo’na laa ilaaha illallaahu a’dadash shauki wash shajari laa ilaaha illallaaha illallaahu a’dadash sha’ri wal wabari laa ilaaha illallaahu a’dadal h’ajari wal madari laa ilaaha illallaahu a’dada lamh’il u’yooni laa ilaaha illallaahu fil laili idhaa a’s-a’s wa fis’ s’ub- h’i idhaa tanaffasa laa ilaaha illallaahu a’dadar riyaah’i fil baraariyyi was’ s’ukhoori laa ilaaha illallaahu minal yaumi ilaa yaumi yunfakhu fis’ s’oor’ ten times during these ten days the Almighty Allah would reward him a rank equaling pearls and rubies in Paradise for each Tahleel. There would be a distance equal to that of traveling a hundred years on a fast vehicle between each rank. There would be a city on each level having a castle made of precious stone and those cities won’t be cut off from each other. They would have surrounding walls, forts, high-rises, houses, wives, beds, Hoorul Ein, food laid on tables, servants, rivers, trees, ornaments and dresses. No one can describe them. When that person comes out of grave, each and every hair on his body would be illuminated and seventy thousand angels would surround him and walk with him till the door of Paradise. When this person enters Paradise, the angels would follow him until they reach the city, whose outer appearance would be like that of a ruby and it would be like green emerald from inside. It will have all sorts of things created by Allah in Paradise. When they reach here, he would be told, “O loved one of Allah! Do you know which city is this and what all things it has?” He would reply, “I don’t know but who are you?” They would say, “We are angels. When you recited Laa ilaaha illallaah in the world, we saw you and this city along with the servants is for you. You would be given a better reward from the Almighty Allah. You will see in Darus Salaam, the neighborhood of Allah what He has given you. You will see that this reward would never be taken back.” The narrator says that one must recite this supplication much so that one is rewarded more.

1. It is narrated that there was a rich man. When he saw the moon of Zilhajj, he observed fast on the next day. When this news reached the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.), he called that person and asked, “Why did you observe fast on that day?” He replied, “May my parents be sacrificed on you, these are the days of Mash-a’r and Hajj. I hope Allah includes me also in their prayers.” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “You will get the reward of freeing a slave, sacrificing a hundred camels and carrying the load on a hundred horses in the way of Allah for each fast. When Yaum-e-Tarweeya (8th Zilhajj) arrives you will get the reward of freeing a thousand slaves, sacrificing a thousand camels and carrying load in the way of Allah on a thousand horses. You will get the reward of freeing two thousand slaves, sacrificing two thousand camels and carrying load in the way of Allah on two thousand horses for the fast of the day of Arafah. All these are compensation for the sins of sixty years before and after it, in your life.”

Ahmad who said it was narrated to us by Musa b. ’Umayr from Ali b. al-Hakam from Ahmad b. Zayd from Musa b. Ja’far (a. s.) who said: “One who fasts on the first day of Zilhajj Almighty Allah would note down the reward of the fasts of eighty months for him. If he observes fast for nine days Allah would note the reward of fasts of an age for him.”

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to us by Sa’d b. Abdillah who said it was narrated to us by Ibrahim b. Hashim from al-Qasim b. Yahya from his grandfather al-Hassan b. Rashid from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “Observe fast on this day and recite Durood on Muhammad (s. a. w. s.) and his progeny in excess. Also keep away from those people who troubled them and denied their rights. Prophets used to order to observe the day of appointment of their successor as Eid.” He asked, “What is the reward of a person fasting on this day?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “He would get the reward of fasting for sixty months. Similarly don’t leave the fast on 27th Rajab for the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) was appointed as prophet on this day and its reward is also equal to the fasts of sixty months.”

Yusif al-Bazaz from al-Qasim b. Yahya from his grandfather al-Hassan b. Rashid who said: The narrator asked Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.), “Is there any other Eid for Muslims except the two Eids and Friday?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “Yes, here is an Eid greater than them; the day when Amirul Momineen (a. s.) was appointed as caliph and the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) had made his love compulsory on believing men and women at Ghadeer-e- Khum. A good deed performed on this day is equal to the deeds of eighty months. Muslims should remember Allah in excess on this day and recite Durood and Salaam on the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) many times and give more for the expenses of his family members.”

1. The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) says, “One who offers a four rakat Salaat after Eid congregational prayer reciting Surah Aa’la in the first rakat it would be as if he has recited all the books revealed by Allah. If he recites Surah Shams in the second rakat he would get the reward equal to the number of things on which the rays of sun fall. If he recites Surah Zuha in the third rakat he would get the reward of feeding all the poor, cleaning and scenting them. If he recites Surah Tauheed ten times in the fourth rakat Allah would forgive the sins committed by him during past and future fifty years. Abu Ja’far Muhammad bin Ali, the writer of the book says that this reward is for the person who remained in Taqayyah and offered Salaat behind the Imam of other sect; then he should offer the above-mentioned Salaat with the intention of Eid prayer. One who prays behind an Imam appointed by Allah whose obedience is compulsory cannot offer any Salaat till noon. If one offers Salaat behind an Imam of one’s own sect (whose obedience is not compulsory) then too there is no need to offer any Salaat till noon.

1. Muhammad bin Musa al-Mutawakkil narrated to me, from Abdullah bin Ja'far al-Himyari, from Ahmad bin Muhammad bin 'Isa, form al-Hassan bin Mahbub, from Jamil bin Salih, from Muhammad bin Marwan, from abu 'Abdillah (a. s.) who said: "The Messenger of Allah (sw) used to fast until it was said he does not break his fast (he does not eat). Then he would fast for a day and break his fast on another day. After that, he would fast on Monday and Thursday. Furthermore, he would fast on three days in the month – Thursday in the start of the month, Wednesday in the middle of the month, and Thursday in the end of the month. He used to say, 'This is the perpetual fasting.'" My father (AS) used to say, "No one is more detestable to me than a man who is told that the Messenger of Allah (sw) used to do so-and-so, and he says, 'Allah will not punish me for doing ijtihad in prayer,' as if he sees that the Messenger of Allah (sw) has left some excellent deeds due to weakness."

2. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates that Amirul Momineen (a. s.) said, “The fasts of the month of Patience (Ramadan) and three fasts of a month keep the evil-thoughts away from one’s heart. The three fasts of a month are equal to the fasts of an age for Allah says in His book, “Whoever brings a good deed, he shall have ten like it.”9

3. And from the previous chain from al-Hussain b. Sa’eed from Ahmad b. Muhammad from Abi Basir who said: The narrator asked Imam Musa Kadhim (a. s.), “How can one gain the reward of fasting for a month?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “By observing fast for three days of every month because the Almighty Allah has said that one who does a good deed would get ten rewards for it. Hence observing fast for three days of a month is equal to fasting for an age.”

4. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) was asked about fasting on two Thursdays and a Wednesday in between them. He replied, “The specialty of Thursday is that one’s deeds are presented on this day while 9 Surah Anaam 6:160 Wednesday is characterized by the creation of Hell on this day. Hence a fast on Wednesday is shield against Hell.”

6. It is narrated by Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) used to fast so much that people used to say that he does not miss any fast. Then he used to discontinue observing fast for so many days that people used to say that he does not observe fast. Then he started observing fast for alternate days like Dawood (a. s.). When he passed away from this world, he was fasting (one of the three fasts of a month). He said that these fasts are equal to the fasts of an age and it kills the evil thoughts arising in one’s heart.” The narrator asked, “May I be sacrificed on you, what are those days?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “First Thursday of every month, the Wednesday coming after first ten days of a month and last Thursday of the month?” The narrator asked, “Why are these days selected?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “The communities before us had to bear the chastisement on these days. Hence the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) used to fast during these days and they are the days of fearing Allah.”

And any believer who suffers harm for us and his eyes shed tears until they flow down his cheeks from distress or suffering, Allah will remove the harm from his face and grant him security on the Day of Resurrection from the wrath of the Fire."

Ismail from Salih b. ’Uqba from Abi Sa’eed al-Madaini who said: Abu Saeed Madaini asked Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.), “May I be sacrificed for you, should I go for Ziyarat of Imam Husain (a. s.)?” He replied, “Yes, O Abu Saeed! Go for Ziyarat of the son of the daughter of the Messenger of Allah (s. a. w. s.) for he was most virtuous among virtuous men, purest among pure and best among the doers of good deeds. If you do his Ziyarat Allah would grant you the reward of freeing twenty-five slaves.”

Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) asked Abul Jarud, “How far is the grave of Imam Husain (a. s.) from your house?” He replied, “If I go on a mount it takes a day to reach and if I walk, it takes a little more than that.” Imam asked, “Do you go for Ziyarat every Friday?” He replied, “No, but I go whenever I get time.” Imam said, “You are unjust. If this place would have been near my home I would have migrated over there.”

20. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) says, “Our Wilayat was presented to the people of various cities but no one accepted us like the people of Kufa. This is so because the holy grave of Ali Ibne Abi Talib (a. s.) is over there and there is one more grave near him i. e. the grave of Imam Husain (a. s.). One who comes for the Ziyarat, offers a two-four rakat Salaat near the grave and seeks desires from Allah his desires would be fulfilled immediately. Surely one thousand angels surround the grave daily.”

25. And from the previous chain who said: Bashir Dahhan asked Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.), “I cannot go for Hajj on a few occasions. What if I go to the grave of Imam Husain (a. s.) on the day of Arafah?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “O Bashir! It is excellent; for one who does the Ziyarat of Imam Husain (a. s.) knowing his right on any day except Eid, would get the reward of twenty accepted Hajjs, twenty accepted Umrahs and fighting twenty battles along with the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) or a just Imam. One who does Ziyarat on the day of Eid would get the reward of one hundred Hajjs, a hundred Umrahs and fighting a hundred battles alongside the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) or a just Imam. One who goes for Ziyarat knowing his right would get the reward of one thousand accepted Hajjs, one thousand accepted Umrahs and fighting one thousand battles alongside the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) or a just Imam.” Bashir asked, “How can I get the reward of halting in Arafah?” Imam (a. s.) looked at him angrily and replied, “When a believer goes for the Ziyarat of the grave of Imam Husain (a. s.), he should first go to river Euphrates and perform ritual bath and then go for Ziyarat. If he does so the reward of a Hajj is noted down for each step he takes.” The narrator says that he is not sure whether Imam (a. s.) included the reward of a battle and Umrah also.

31. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) told Husain bin Suwair, “O Husain! One who starts from his home with an intention of doing the Ziyarat of the grave of Imam Husain (a. s.) Allah would note a reward and wipe a sin for every step taken. If he is on a mount Allah would note down a reward and wipe a sin for every step of the mount till he reaches Kerbala. The Almighty Allah would include him among those who get salvation. And when he performs the deeds of Ziyarat Allah includes him among the successful. When he makes an intention to return, an angel would come and say, ‘The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) has sent his salutations to you and has conveyed that your past sins are forgiven. Now you can have a new start in your deeds’.”

Ismail from Salih b. ’Uqba from Basheer al-Dahhan from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “When a person starts from his house for the Ziyarat of the grave of Imam Husain (a. s.) and takes his first step after bidding farewell to his family, his sins are forgiven and he would go on becoming pure as he steps towards the grave of Imam Husain (a. s.). When he reaches the holy grave, Allah would tell him, ‘O My servant! Seek from Me and I will grant you. Call Me and I will answer you. Express your desires and I will fulfill them’. It is incumbent on Allah to repay him whatever he spends.”

33. And from the previous chain from Salih b. al-Harith b. al-Mughira from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: ‘O guest of Allah! There are glad-tidings of my friendship in Paradise for you’. Then Ali (a. s.) calls out, ‘I guarantee the fulfillment of your desires in this world and the hereafter and keeping calamities away from you’. Then all the angels would surround him in a circle and accompany him home.”

If you do his Ziyarat, Allah would grant you the reward of twenty-five Hajjs.”

Abd al-Malik who said: “All these Hajjs and Umrahs are accepted and blessed.” The narrator says that before they stood up to leave, a person came and told Imam (a. s.), “I have performed nineteen Hajjs. Pray to Allah that I complete twenty.” Imam (a. s.) asked, “Have you performed the Ziyarat of the grave of Imam Husain (a. s.)?” He replied, “No” Imam (a. s.) told him, “This Ziyarat is better than twenty Hajjs.”

13. My father (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Sa'd ibn Abdullah told me from Ya'qub ibn Yazid, from Muhammad ibn Abi 'Umayr, from Mu'awiyah ibn Wahb, who said: 'I entered upon Abu Abdullah (peace be upon him) while he was in his place of prayer. I sat until he completed his prayer, and I heard him conversing with his Lord, saying: 'O You who have honored us with dignity, who have promised us intercession, who have entrusted us with the message, who have made us heirs of the Prophets, who have sealed the previous nations with us, who have granted us the will, who have given us knowledge of what has passed and what will remain, and who have made the hearts of people incline toward us, forgive me and my brothers and the visitors of the grave of my grandfather, Abu Abdullah Al-Husayn ibn Ali (peace be upon him), those who have spent their wealth and dedicated their bodies seeking our goodness and hoping for what You have in connection with us, and the joy they have brought to Your Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and their response to our command, and the anger they have directed toward our enemy. They sought thereby Your pleasure, so protect them with Your satisfaction, and safeguard them by night and by day, and grant them the best of successors among their families and children who were left behind, and accompany them and save them from the evil of every tyrant and every weak one among Your creation, and from the evil of the devils of mankind and jinn. Grant them the best of what they have hoped for from You during their estrangement from their homelands, and what they preferred over their children and bodies and families and relatives. O Allah, our enemies have blamed them for leaving, but that has not stopped them from rising and coming to us, despite the opposition against them. Have mercy on those faces that have been changed by the sun, and have mercy on those cheeks that have turned over the grave of Abu Abdullah Al-Husayn (peace be upon him), and have mercy on those eyes that have shed tears for us, and have mercy on those hearts that have grieved and burned for us, and have mercy on that cry that was for us. O Allah, I entrust to You those souls and those bodies until You grant them to drink from the pond on the Day of Thirst.' He continued to invoke this supplication while in prostration. When he finished, I said to him, 'May I be your ransom! If what I heard from you was for someone who does not know Allah, I would think that the Fire would never touch him at all. By Allah, I have wished that I had visited him and not made the pilgrimage.' He said to me, 'How close you are to him! What is preventing you from visiting him, O Mu'awiyah? And why do you abandon the pilgrimage?' I said, 'May I be your ransom! I did not know that the matter would reach this.' He said, 'O Mu'awiyah, who invokes for his visitors in the heavens more than those who invoke for them on earth? Do not abandon it for fear of anyone. Whoever abandons it out of fear will see the regret for what they wish they could have done with their own hands. Do you not love for Allah to see you among those who are called to by the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)? Do you not love to be among those who shake hands with the angels tomorrow? Do you not love to be among those who will be greeted by the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) tomorrow?'"

45. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “There is no angel in the heavens and the earth who comes for the Ziyarat of Imam Husain (a. s.) taking permission from Allah. One group of angels or other keeps on coming down to Imam Husain (a. s.) or going up.”

46. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “The number of any creature of Allah is not more than that of angels. Seventy thousand angels come down to earth every night and circumambulate the Holy Kaaba all night. They come to the holy grave of the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) before sunrise and salute him, then salute Amirul Momineen (a. s.) at his grave, then salute Imam Hasan (a. s.) at his grave and come to salute Imam Husain (a. s.) at his grave and go back to the heaven before the sun rises. Then seventy thousand angels come to earth during the day. They circumambulate the Holy Kaaba all day and salute the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) at his grave before sunset. Then they come to salute Amirul Momineen (a. s.) at his grave, then salute Imam Hasan (a. s.) at his grave and finally they come to salute Imam Husain (a. s.) at his grave and return to heaven before the sun sets.

The Holy Quran would say, ‘People who acted upon anything except me have got their result. O Allah! You give the best rewards to these people’. Allah would make the reciter of the Holy Quran wear two dresses of Paradise and keep the crown of honor on his head. Allah would tell the Holy Quran, ‘Are you satisfied now?’ It would reply, ‘I desire a better reward’. Now Allah would grant peace from right and an eternal Paradise from left and then make him enter Paradise. He would be told in Paradise, ‘Go on reciting a verse of the Holy Quran and your position will go on increasing by one level for each of them’. Then the Holy Quran would be addressed, ‘Are you pleased now?’ The Holy Quran would say, ‘Yes my Lord!’” Imam (a. s.) says that one who recites the Holy Quran much and is regular in it, the Almighty Allah would grant him this reward twice.

1. From the previous chain from al-Hassan from al-Hussain b. Abi al-’Ala from Abi Nasr from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “Indeed everything has a heart and the heart of Quran is Surah Yasin. One who recites it before going to bed or any part of the day would remain safe during that day and get earnings from Allah. One who recites it before going to bed at night; the Almighty Allah would appoint seventy angels to protect him from the mischief of Satan and all sorts of calamities. If he dies the next day Allah would make him enter Paradise and thirty thousand angels would be present at the time of ritual bath of his dead body. They would repent for him and pray for his forgiveness and they would accompany him till his burial in the grave. Angels would enter the grave before he is laid down in it and worship over there and the reward of this worship would be given to him. His grave would be expanded for a distance as further as an eye can see. He would remain safe from squeeze of the grave and an illuminated light would emerge from his grave till the heaven. This light would remain till the time Allah takes him out of his grave. When he would be resurrected from his grave, he would be speaking to angels, his face would be happy and they would give him good news at every stage till they pass through the Sirat Bridge and Mizan. The angels would take him so near to Allah that none except the nearest angels and prophets have been there. He would stand in front of Allah with the prophets. While others will be sorrowful and troubled, he would have no sorrow, trouble or a difficulty. Allah would tell him, ‘Do intercession of whomsoever you want. I will accept your intercession and ask for whatever you want. I will grant you’. He will get whatever he desires and if he does intercession for a person it would be accepted while others would have to give account of their deeds. They would have been stopped and being disgraced but there would be no accounting for this person. No one will stop him and there would be no disgrace for him. He won’t face bad fortune for any of his deeds. His scroll of deeds would be opened and given to him. When he would come down after meeting Allah, people would utter Sub-h’aanallaah on seeing him. They would say, “There is no sin to the name of this servant and he will get the company of Muhammad (s. a. w. s.).”

When he meets his Lord in the Hereafter, Allah would say to all the angels that exist in skies and the earth that I am happy and satisfied with such and such a man, so O angels, all of you seek forgiveness for this man.

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates from his ancestors that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “One who walks on the way to seek knowledge, Allah will make him walk on the way to Paradise. Angels spread their wings for the pleasure of a student and every thing in the earth and the heaven including the fishes of oceans repent for him. A scholar is better than a worshipper much in the same way as a full moon is compared to stars. The scholars are inheritors of the prophets and the value of inheritance of prophets is measured in terms of knowledge instead of wealth.

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِیُّ بْنُ الْحُسَیْنِ السَّعْدَآبَادِیُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ سَعْدَانَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ مُعَلَّی بْنِ خُنَیْسٍ قَالَ: خَرَجَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فِی لَیْلَهٍ قَدْ رَشَّتِ السَّمَاءُ وَ هُوَ یُرِیدُ ظُلَّهَ بَنِی سَاعِدَهَ فَاتَّبَعْتُهُ فَإِذَا هُوَ قَدْ سَقَطَ مِنْهُ شَیْ ءٌ فَقَالَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ اللَّهُمَّ رُدَّ عَلَیْنَا قَالَ فَأَتَیْتُهُ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَیْهِ فَقَالَ أَنْتَ مُعَلًّی قُلْتُ نَعَمْ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاکَ فَقَالَ لِی الْتَمِسْ بِیَدِکَ فَمَا وَجَدْتَ مِنْ شَیْ ءٍ فَادْفَعْهُ إِلَیَّ قَالَ فَإِذَا بِخُبْزٍ مُنْتَشِرٍ فَجَعَلْتُ أَدْفَعُ إِلَیْهِ مَا وَجَدْتُ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِجِرَابٍ مِنْ خُبْزٍ فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاکَ أَحْمِلُهُ عَنْکَ فَقَالَ لَا أَنَا أَوْلَی بِهِ مِنْکَ وَ لَکِنِ امْضِ مَعِی قَالَ فَأَتَیْنَا ظُلَّهَ بَنِی سَاعِدَهَ فَإِذَا نَحْنُ بِقَوْمٍ نِیَامٍ فَجَعَلَ یَدُسُّ الرَّغِیفَ وَ الرَّغِیفَیْنِ تَحْتَ ثَوْبِ کُلِّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْهُمْ حَتَّی أَتَی عَلَی آخِرِهِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفْنَا فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاکَ یَعْرِفُ هَؤُلَاءِ الْحَقَّ فَقَالَ لَوْ عَرَفُوا لَوَاسَیْنَاهُمْ بِالدُّقَّهِ وَ الدُّقَّهُ هِیَ الْمِلْحُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَمْ یَخْلُقْ شَیْئاً إِلَّا وَ لَهُ خَازِنٌ یَخْزُنُهُ إِلَّا الصَّدَقَهَ فَإِنَّ الرَّبَّ تَبَارَکَ وَ تَعَالَی یَلِیهِمَا بِنَفْسِهِ وَ کَانَ أَبِی إِذَا تَصَدَّقَ بِشَیْ ءٍ وَضَعَهُ فِی یَدِ السَّائِلِ ثُمَّ ارْتَدَّهُ مِنْهُ وَ قَبَّلَهُ وَ شَمَّهُ ثُمَّ رَدَّهُ فِی یَدِ السَّائِلِ وَ ذَلِکَ أَنَّهَا تَقَعُ فِی یَدِ اللَّهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَقَعَ فِی یَدِ السَّائِلِ فَأَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ أُنَاوِلَ مَا وَلَاهَا اللَّهُ تَعَالَی إِنَّ صَدَقَهَ اللَّیْلِ تُطْفِئُ غَضَبَ الرَّبِّ وَ تَمْحَقُ الذَّنْبَ الْعَظِیمَ وَ تُهَوِّنُ الْحِسَابَ وَ صَدَقَهَ النَّهَارِ تُثْمِرُ الْمَالَ وَ تَزِیدُ فِی الْعُمُرِ إِنَّ عِیسَی ابْنَ مَرْیَمَ ع لَمَّا مَرَّ عَلَی الْبَحْرِ أَلْقَی بِقُرْصٍ مِنْ قُوتِهِ فِی الْمَاءِ فَقَالَ لَهُ بَعْضُ الْحَوَارِیِّینَ یَا رُوحَ اللَّهِ وَ کَلِمَتَهُ لِمَ فَعَلْتَ هَذَا هُوَ مِنْ قُوتِکَ قَالَ فَعَلْتُ هَذَا لِتَأْکُلَهُ دَابَّهٌ مِنْ دَوَابِّ الْمَاءِ وَ ثَوَابُهُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ الْعَظِیمِ.

2. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to us by Ali b. al-Hussain al-Sa’dabadi from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah from his father from Sa’dan b. Muslim from Mu’alla b. Khunays who said: “Whenever my father used to give Sadaqah, he used to take it back from the hands of the beggar, kiss that Sadaqah and smell it and then return it to him. He used to do it so because Sadaqah goes into the hands of Allah before going into the hands of beggar. He used to say that I like to have in my hands too what Allah’s hands had held. Giving Sadaqah in darkness reduces the anger of Allah and wipes greater sins. It makes accounting of deeds easier. Sadaqah given during day causes abundance in wealth and life. Once Isa Ibne Maryam passed by a sea. He dropped his food in the sea. One of his companions asked, “O Ruhullah! Why did you do so? It was your food, why did you drop it?” He replied, “I dropped it so that the marine creatures consume it. It carries a great reward in front of Allah.”

Reward of supplication by a destitute for one who gives Sadaqah - Hadith 31025

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِیِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ مُثَنًّی الْخَیَّاطِ عَنْ أَبِی بَصِیرٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ عَلِیُّ بْنُ الْحُسَیْنِ ع مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ تَصَدَّقَ عَلَی مِسْکِینٍ مُسْتَضْعَفٍ فَدَعَا لَهُ الْمِسْکِینُ بِشَیْ ءٍ تِلْکَ السَّاعَهَ إِلَّا اسْتُجِیبَ لَهُ.

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates that Imam Zainul Abideen (a. s.) said, “One who gives Sadaqah to a destitute and the latter supplicates for the former his supplications are accepted immediately.”

Reward of delaying the repayment of loan for an indebted person - Hadith 31026

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْحِمْیَرِیُّ عَنْ یَعْقُوبَ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ سَدِیرٍ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: یُبْعَثُ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَهِ قَوْمٌ تَحْتَ ظِلِّ الْعَرْشِ وَ وُجُوهُهُمْ مِنْ نُورٍ وَ رِیَاشُهُمْ مِنْ نُورٍ جُلُوسٌ عَلَی کَرَاسِیَّ مِنْ نُورٍ قَالَ فَتَشَرَّفَ لَهُمُ الْخَلَائِقُ فَیَقُولُونَ هَؤُلَاءِ الْأَنْبِیَاءُ فَیُنَادِی مُنَادٍ مِنْ تَحْتِ الْعَرْشِ أَنْ لَیْسَ هَؤُلَاءِ بِأَنْبِیَاءَ قَالَ فَیَقُولُونَ هَؤُلَاءِ شُهَدَاءُ فَیُنَادِی مُنَادٍ مِنْ تَحْتِ الْعَرْشِ لَیْسَ هَؤُلَاءِ بِشُهَدَاءَ وَ لَکِنْ هَؤُلَاءِ قَوْمٌ کَانُوا یُیَسِّرُونَ عَلَی الْمُؤْمِنِینَ وَ یُنْظِرُونَ الْمُعْسِرَ حَتَّی یُیَسَّرَ.

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to us by Abdillah b. Ja’far al-Himyari from Ya’qub b. Yazid from al-Hassan b. Mahbub from Hamad from Sadeer from Abi Ja’far (a. s.) who said: “Some people would be sitting on the chairs of light under the shade of the Divine Throne having bright faces and wearing illuminated dresses. People will wonder, ‘Are they prophets?’ A caller would say, ‘No’. People will ask, ‘Are they martyrs?’ The caller would reply, ‘They are not martyrs. They used to remain lenient with the believers and used to give time to debtors to repay loans and used to ask them to repay the loan whenever they are capable of it’.”

Reward of condoning a loanee - Hadith 31027

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ یَعْقُوبَ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِیمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَمِیدِ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِنَّ لِعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَیَابَهَ دَیْناً عَلَی رَجُلٍ قَدْ مَاتَ کَلَّمْنَاهُ أَنْ یُحَلِّلَهُ فَأَبَی فَقَالَ وَیْحَهُ أَ مَا یَعْلَمُ أَنَّ لَهُ بِکُلِّ دِرْهَمٍ عَشْراً إِذَا حَلَّلَهُ وَ إِنْ لَمْ یُحَلِّلْهُ إِنَّمَا هُوَ دِرْهَمٌ بَدَلَ دِرْهَمٍ.

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ya’qub b. Yazid from Ibn Abi ’Umayr from Ibrahim b. Abdul-Hameed who said: The narrator told Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.), “Abdur Rahman bin Siyabah had taken some money from a person and he died without repaying it. We asked that man to write off the loan but he did not accept.” Imam (a. s.) replied, “Pity on that man. Didn’t he know that had he forgiven it, he would have got ten rewards for each dirham and now he will get a dirham only for each dirham?”

Reward of protecting the honor of a Muslim brother - Hadith 31028

أَبِی ره عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِیمَ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ یَزِیدَ النَّوْفَلِیِّ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِیلَ بْنِ أَبِی زِیَادٍ السَّکُونِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ رَدَّ عَنْ عِرْضِ أَخِیهِ الْمُسْلِمِ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّهُ الْبَتَّهَ.

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “Paradise would certainly be made obligatory for one who protects the honor of a Muslim brother.”

Reward of fulfilling the desires of a believing brother, solving his problems, protecting him against injustice, helping in his work, providing water during his thirst, food while he is hungry, clothing him when he is bare, providing him mount, providing him burial shroud, marrying him off and visiting him during his illness - Hadith 31029

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَبَّادُ بْنُ أبی سُلَیْمَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سُلَیْمَانَ الدَّیْلَمِیّ�� عَنْ أَبِیهِ سُلَیْمَانَ عَنْ مُخَلَّدِ بْنِ یَزِیدَ النَّیْسَابُورِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی حَمْزَهَ الثُّمَالِیِّ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ ع قَالَ: مَنْ قَضَی لِأَخِیهِ حَاجَهً فیحاجه الله بها [فَبِحَاجَهِ اللَّهِ بَدَأَ] وَ قَضَی اللَّهُ بِهَا مِائَهَ حَاجَهٍ فِی إِحْدَاهُنَّ الْجَنَّهُ وَ مَنْ نَفَّسَ عَنْ أَخِیهِ کُرْبَهً نَفَّسَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ کُرْبَهً یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَهِ بَالِغاً مَا بَلَغَتْ وَ مَنْ أَعَانَهُ عَلَی ظَالِمٍ لَهُ أَعَانَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَی إِجَازَهِ الصِّرَاطِ عِنْدَ دَحْضِ الْأَقْدَامِ وَ مَنْ سَعَی لَهُ فِی حَاجَهٍ حَتَّی قَضَاهَا لَهُ فَسُرَّ بِقَضَائِهَا فَکَانَ کَإِدْخَالِ السُّرُورِ عَلَی رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ مَنْ سَقَاهُ مِنْ ظَمَإٍ سَقَاهُ اللَّهُ مِنَ الرَّحِیقِ الْمَخْتُومِ وَ مَنْ أَطْعَمَهُ مِنْ جُوعٍ أَطْعَمَهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ ثِمَارِ الْجَنَّهِ وَ مَنْ کَسَاهُ مِنْ عُرْیٍ کَسَاهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ إِسْتَبْرَقٍ وَ حَرِیرٍ وَ مَنْ کَسَاهُ مِنْ غَیْرِ عُرْیٍ لَمْ یَزَلْ فِی ضَمَانِ اللَّهِ مَا دَامَ عَلَی الْمَکْسُوِّ مِنَ الثَّوْبِ سِلْکٌ وَ مَنْ کَفَاهُ بِمَا هُوَ یَمْتَهِنُهُ وَ یَکُفُّ وَجْهَهُ وَ یَصِلُ بِهِ یَدَیْهِ یُخْدِمُهُ الْوِلْدَانَ وَ مَنْ حَمَلَهُ مِنْ رَحْلِهِ بَعَثَهُ اللَّهُ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَهِ عَلَی نَاقَهٍ مِنْ نُوقِ الْجَنَّهِ یُبَاهِی بِهِ الْمَلَائِکَهَ وَ مَنْ کَفَّنَهُ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ فَکَأَنَّمَا کَسَاهُ یَوْمَ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ إِلَی یَوْمِ یَمُوتُ وَ مَنْ زَوَّجَهُ زَوْجَهً یَأْنَسُ بِهَا وَ یَسْکُنُ إِلَیْهَا آنَسَهُ اللَّهُ فِی قَبْرِهِ بِصُورَهِ أَحَبِّ أَهْلِهِ إِلَیْهِ وَ مَنْ عَادَهُ عِنْدَ مَرَضِهِ حَفَّتْهُ الْمَلَائِکَهُ تَدْعُو لَهُ حَتَّی یَنْصَرِفَ وَ تَقُولُ طِبْتَ وَ طَابَتْ لَکَ الْجَنَّهُ وَ اللَّهِ لَقَضَاءُ حَاجَتِهِ أَحَبُّ إِلَی اللَّهِ مِنْ صِیَامِ شَهْرَیْنِ مُتَتَابِعَیْنِ بِاعْتِکَافِهِمَا فِی الشَّهْرِ الْحَرَامِ.

1. Imam Zainul Abideen (a. s.) said, “One who fulfils a need of a brother is like one who has begun with the desire of Allah. The Almighty Allah will fulfill his hundred desires, one of which is Paradise. One who solves the difficulty of a brother Allah will solve his difficulties on the Day of Judgment whatever be their number. One who helps a brother against an unjust man the Almighty Allah will save him from stumbling so that he can pass through the Sirat Bridge. One who tries to fulfill the desire of a brother and successfully does so is like a person who has pleased the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.). One who satisfies the thirst of a person, Allah will offer him the drink of Makhtum (sealed). One who feeds a hungry person, Allah will give him fruits of Paradise to eat. If someone dresses a bare person Allah will grant him dresses made of satin and silk. One who dresses someone else, the former will remain in Allah’s protection till that person is wearing the dress and even if a single thread is remaining. If someone protects the honor of a person Allah will appoint Wildan-e-Mukhalladin (boys who remain in Paradise forever) to serve him. If someone offers his mount to a person, Allah will make him ride a camel of Paradise and the angels will feel proud of him. One who gives shroud to a believing brother he is like a baby just born. If a person marries someone off to a loving and caring woman Allah will give him a beautiful face in grave, which will make his relatives happy. One who visits an ailing brother angels surround him and pray for him till he returns. Then angels tell him, ‘You have become pure. Congratulations for getting a pure Paradise’. By Allah, I consider fulfilling the wish of a person better than fasting for those two consecutive months while spending two sacred months in Etekaf.”

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from ’Abaad b. Sulayman from Muhammad b. Sulayman al-Daylami from his father from Ishaq b. Ammar al-Sayrafi who said: “O Ishaq! The Almighty Allah orders the angels to stay away from believers while they are conversing so that they do not note down the conversation nor do they know about it. Their conversation is known to only Allah, the Guardian of secrets. O Ishaq! Fear Allah as if you are seeing Him because even if you cannot see Him, He is definitely looking at you. If you think that He is not seeing you, you will become an infidel. If you have a belief that He is looking you and you hide your sins from other creatures and reveal them in front of Allah you have really underestimated His Sight.”

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah from his father from Hamad b. Isa from Ibrahim b. Umar al-Yamani from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “One who helps an oppressed believer its reward is better than that of fasting for a month and performing Etekaf in Masjidul Haraam. One who is capable of helping a Muslim and helps him, the Almighty Allah will help him in the world and the hereafter. If a believer is being backbited and a person capable of helping him remains silent and does not defend him, the Almighty Allah will make him deprived in the world and the hereafter.”

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “When Allah resurrects a believer from his grave, He will also resurrect a person of his like, which will walk ahead of him. Whenever the believer will face a difficulty or fear on the Day of Judgment, this look-like will say, ‘Do not be sorrowful or fearful. There are glad-tidings for you from Allah’. It will continuously congratulate him till they reach the presence of Allah. His accounting of deeds will be easy and he will be ordered to enter Paradise and that look-alike will follow him. He will say to that creature, ‘Peace be upon you, for you were there with me in my grave and you are such a nice thing to come out of my grave that you are continuously giving me happiness since the time I saw you. Tell me who are you?’ It will reply, ‘I am the happiness that you gave to a believing brother in the world. Allah created me of that to give you glad-tidings’.”

1. It is narrated that Imam Ridha (a. s.) said, “One who recites: Innallaaha wa malaa-ikatahu yus’alloona a’lan nabiyyi yaa ayyuhalladheenaa aamanoo s’alloo a’laihi wa sallimoo tasleemaa. Allaahumma s’alli a’laa muh’ammadinw wa aali muh’ammad immediately after Morning and Maghrib Prayers, the Almighty Allah will fulfill his one hundred wishes out of which seventy will be fulfilled in the world and thirty in the hereafter.” The narrator asked, “What is meant by the salutation of Allah, angels and the believers?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “The salutation of Allah is sending down of His mercy. The salutation of angels is his glorification and the salutation of the believers is a supplication for him. One of the secrets of Aale Muhammad is in the salutation on the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) and his progeny: Allaahumma s’alli a’laa muh’ammadinw wa aali muh’ammadin fil malaa-il a- a’laa wa s’alli a’laa muh’ammadinw wa aali muh’ammadin fil mursaleen. Allaahumma’t’i muh’ammadal waseelata washsharafa wal faz”eelata waddarajatal kabeeah. Allaahumma innee aamantu bimuh’ammadinw wa lam arahu falaa tah’rimnee yaumal qiyaamati ru-yatahu warzuqnee suh’batahu wa tawaffanee a’laa millatihi wasqinee min h’auz”ihi mashrabar rawiyyan saa-ighan hanee-al laa az’ma-u ba’dahu abadaa. Innaka a’laa kulli shai-in Qadeer. Allaahumma kamaa aamantu bimuh’ammadinw wa lam arahu fa-a’rrifnee filjinaani waj- hah. Allaahumma balligh rooh’a muh’ammadin a’nnee tah’iyyatan katheeratanw wa salaamaa. One who recites this salutation thrice everyday in morning and in the evening, his sins are wiped off and forgiven. He will remain happy forever. His supplications will be accepted. His wishes will be fulfilled. His earnings will improve. He will get assistance against his enemy. Causes of good deeds will come to him and he will get the company of prophets in high gardens.”

Your supplications are accepted and you are fortunate. O angels! Recite seventy salutations on him and I will recite seven hundred salutations on him’.” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) went on to say, “One who recites salutation on me but does not do so on my progeny there are seventy veils between that salutation and heaven. The Almighty Allah tells him, ‘There is no reply or fortune for you. O angels do not bring his supplication to Me if he does not supplement his salutation on the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) with the salutation on his holy progeny’. If one does not join the salutation on my Ahle Bayt along with mine his prayers will remain in the veil (unanswered) forever.”

4. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from al-Haytham b. Abi Masruq al-Hindi from Ismail b. Sahl who said: The narrator wrote to Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) to let him know those deeds, which will keep him along with Imam (a. s.) in this world and the hereafter.

They are: testifying that there is no Lord except Allah and I am His prophet, saying Innaa lillaahi wa innaa ilaihi raaji-oo’n at the time of difficulty, saying Alh’amdulillaah on hearing a good news and saying Astaghfirullaah on committing a sin.”

Deeds which are rewarded soon - Hadith 31101

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ مُوسَی عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ بَکْرِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِیِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِیمَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِنَّ أَسْرَعَ الْخَیْرِ ثَوَاباً الْبِرُّ وَ إِنَّ أَسْرَعَ الشَّرِّ عِقَاباً الْبَغْیُ وَ کَفَی بِالْمَرْءِ عَیْباً أَنْ یَنْظُرَ مِنَ النَّاسِ إِلَی مَا یَعْمَی عَنْهُ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ أَوْ یُعَیِّرَ النَّاسَ مَا لَا یَسْتَطِیعُ تَرْکَهُ أَوْ یُؤْذِیَ جَلِیسَهُ بِمَا لَا یَعْنِیهِ.

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates from his predecessors that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “The deed that is rewarded soon is a good action and the deed punished soon is injustice. The deed is bad enough when a person sees faults in others but is blind as far as his self is concerned and he advises people to avoid sins but does not avoid them himself and if he troubles with useless talk those who sit with him.”

Reward of reciting Sub-h’aanallaah thrice in the morning and evening - Hadith 31102

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Ali b. Musa from Ahmad b. Muhammad from Ali b. al-Hakam from Sayf from Abdulrahman b. Sayabeh from Ibn Ishaq from al-Harith from Ameer al-Mumineen (a. s.) who said: “One who recites Fa sub- h’aanallaahi h’eena tumsoona wa h’eena tus’bih’oona wa lahul h’amdu fis samaawaati wal arz”i wa a’shiyyanw wa h’eena tuz’hiroon thrice at night has received all the rewards of that night and distanced all the mischief. One who recites it in the morning will receive all the good and kept away from all the mischief of that day.”

Reward of abstinence and piety - Hadith 31103

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from al-Abbas b. Ma’ruf from Ali b. Mahziyar from Ja’far b. Basheer from Sayf from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “One who does not feel shy in earning his sustenance and meets his expenses is prosperous and has a good family. One who observes piety in the world, Allah fills his heart with wisdom, makes his tongue speak, keeps him away from worldly defects, diseases and their treatments and takes him to the ‘abode of peace’ (Daarus Salaam) safe and sound.”

Reward of performing a good deed at the start and end of the day - Hadith 31104

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْحِمْیَرِیُّ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِیمَ بْنِ مَهْزِیَارَ عَنْ أَخِیهِ عَلِیِّ بْنِ مَهْزِیَارَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شِمْرٍ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِنَّ الْمَلَکَ یَنْزِلُ بِصَحِیفَهٍ أَوَّلَ النَّهَارِ وَ أَوَّلَ اللَّیْلِ فَیَکْتُبُ فِیهَا عَمَلَ ابْنِ آدَمَ فَاعْمَلُوا فِی أَوَّلِهَا خَیْراً وَ فِی آخِرِهَا خَیْراً فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ یَغْفِرُ لَکُمْ فِیمَا بَیْنَ ذَلِکَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ یَقُولُ فَاذْکُرُونِی أَذْکُرْکُمْ وَ یَقُولُ وَ لَذِکْرُ اللَّهِ أَکْبَرُ

1. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “Surely an angel descends carrying a scroll in the beginning of day and night and writes the deeds of men. Hence one should do good deeds in the beginning of day and night. God willing, you will be forgiven during the other times also if Allah wills, because Allah, the Mighty and Sublime says: ‘Therefore remember Me, I will remember you’. And He says: ‘and certainly the remembrance of Allah is the greatest’.”

Marwan from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “There is nothing but that it has a measure and a weight except the tears. For indeed a drop of it can extinguish a sea of fire. And when ones eyes are filled with tears, his face will never see poverty or disgrace. And when tears are flowing, Allah prohibits the fire of Hell on it and even if one person is weeping the whole community is dealt with mercy (by Allah).”

2. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates from his predecessors that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “Tooba (congratulations) for that face which Allah sees mercifully and that person who is weeping over his sins in fear of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime and none else is aware of this sin.”

1. It is narrated that Imam Zainul Abideen (a. s.) said that Allah, the Mighty and Sublime says, “(I swear) by My Honor, Greatness, Beauty, Strength and high-rank, one who gives preference to My pleasure over his desires I will fulfill the aim of his hereafter.

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “One who has hereafter as his ultimate aim every morning and evening, Allah makes his heart self- sufficient and he will be granted worldly things.

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Ali Majluwayh from his uncle Muhammad b. Abi al-Qasim from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah from al-Hassan b. Mahbub from Muhammad b. Marid from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “No believer passes away while he is away from his home having no one to weep over him except that the parts of the earth where he used to worship and the clothes, which he used to wear will weep for him. All those doors of heaven weep for him, from which his deeds used to go up and the angels appointed on him will weep for him.”

He was told, ‘You are getting these comforts because of your nice behavior with your so and so believing neighbor and doing good in the world’.”

1. It is narrated that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “No believer has a milching animal in his home but that the people of that house will be made holy and they would be congratulated. If he has two goats they will be made holy and given glad-tidings twice everyday.” Some companions asked, “How will he be made holy?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) answered, “An angel will stand near them every morning and evening and say: ‘You have become holy and are congratulated. You have become pure and your food too.” I asked, “What does ‘You have become holy’ means?” He replied, “You have become pure.”

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ahmad b. Muhammad from al-Hassan b. Mahbub from Abdillah b. Marhum from Ibn Sinan from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “When a believer enters his grave, the Salaat is to his right and Zakat to his left. Good deeds shade him and patience stands at one end. When the two angels enter to question him, Patience tells Salaat, Zakat and good deeds: ‘Protect your friend. If you fail to do so, I will protect him.”

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Yahya from Ahmad b. Muhammad from al-Hassan b. Mahbub from Salih b.

Why are you standing here?” He replied, “One of my believing brothers lives here. I want to salute him.” The angel asked, “Is he your near relative or you are having some work with him?” He replied, “He is neither a near relative of mine nor do I have any work with him. He is just a Muslim brother for me and hence, I have come to pay respect to him. I have made it obligatory on myself to salute him for the sake of pleasure of the Lord of the worlds.” The angel said, “Allah has sent me to you to convey His salutations and has said: Your only aim was to please Me and you met Me. I have made Paradise obligatory for you, given you salvation from My anger so that you are granted freedom from the fire of Hell."

Reward of doing Taubah Nasooh - Hadith 31120

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِدْرِیسَ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِیَهَ بْنِ وَهْبٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع یَقُولُ إِذَا تَابَ الْعَبْدُ الْمُؤْمِنُ تَوْبَهً نَصُوحاً أَحَبَّهُ اللَّهُ فَسَتَرَ عَلَیْهِ فِی الدُّنْیَا وَ الْآخِرَهِ قُلْتُ وَ کَیْفَ یَسْتُرُ عَلَیْهِ قَالَ یُنْسِی مَلَکَیْهِ مَا کَتَبَا عَلَیْهِ مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ وَ أَوْحَی اللَّهُ إِلَی جَوَارِحِهِ اکْتُمِی عَلَیْهِ ذُنُوبَهُ وَ أَوْحَی إِلَی بِقَاعِ الْأَرْضِ اکْتُمِی عَلَیْهِ مَا کَانَ یَعْمَلُ عَلَیْکِ مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ فَیَلْقَی اللَّهَ حِینَ یَلْقَاهُ وَ لَیْسَ شَیْ ءٌ یَشْهَدُ عَلَیْهِ بِالذُّنُوبِ.

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Ahmad b. Idris from Ahmad b. Muhammad from al-Hassan b. Mahbub from Muawiyah b. Wahab who said: “When a person does Taubah Nasooh, Allah loves him; and his sins of this world and hereafter are concealed.” The narrator asked, “How does Allah conceal all his sins?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “He makes the two angels who write deeds forget those sins and orders the parts of his body to keep the sins hidden. All the parts of the earth where he has committed sins are ordered to hide his sins. Hence when that person comes in the presence of Allah, nothing in this universe will testify to even the smallest of his sins.”

Reward of not having expectations, good character, soft behavior and simple nature - Hadith 31121

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ أَبِی الْخَطَّابِ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ مَعْرُوفٍ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَ لَا أُخْبِرُکُمْ بِمَنْ تَحْرُمُ عَلَیْهِ النَّارُ غَداً قَالُوا بَلَی یَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ الْهَیِّنُ الْقَرِیبُ اللَّیِّنُ السَّهْلُ.

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ahmad b. Muhammad from al-Hassan b. Mahbub who said it was narrated to me by Abu Ayoob’ from al-Wasafi from Abi Ja’far (a. s.) who said: “O Musa! There is no one to receive nearness like those among the near ones who cry out of My fear. There is no worshipper like one who worships Me keeping away from what I have prohibited. There is no one who beautifies Me more than those who abstain because they do not beautify themselves with those things they are independent of.” Musa (a. s.) asked the Lord, “O the Most Merciful of the merciful ones! What is the reward of those people?” Allah replied, “O Musa! Those who seek nearness fearing Me will be with My best friends where no ordinary person can come. I feel ashamed to inquire about the deeds of those who worship Me keeping away from what I have prohibited. One who seeks nearness to Me through abstinence in this world I will grant him every kind of paradise so that he may live wherever he likes.”

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Yahya from Ahmad b. Muhammad from al-Hassan b. Mahbub from Abi Walad from Maysar from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “On the day of Judgment, a believer will pass by a person whom he had known in the world. An angel will be appointed to take that person to Hell and he will call out to the believer, ‘Please help me for I had done good to you and fulfilled your desire in the world. Can you repay that good deed of mine today?’ The believer will ask the angels to leave that person. Upon hearing the desire of that believer, Allah will order the angels to obey the believer and leave that person alone.”

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ya’qub b. Yazid from Muhammad b. Abi ’Umayr from Abdulrahman b. al-Hajjaj from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “If a servant has good expectations from Allah he will be rewarded according to his expectations. And one who expects bad will be meted out according to his ill expectations.

1. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) narrates that Amirul Momineen (a. s.) said, “All the good deeds are hidden in three qualities – seeing, silence and speech. One who’s seeing is not a lesson is useless.

A person whose seeing is a lesson, silence is thought, conversation is remembrance of Allah, who cries over his sins and from whom people remain safe, is indeed fortunate (there is Tooba for him).”

You are right. I didn’t give you poverty to disgrace you but for this day. Go among the people and see. Whoever did good to you, hold his hand and make him enter Paradise along with you.”

He complained about it to Jibraeel (a. s.) who told him, ‘Take a branch of a bitter almond and keep it on your chest’. He did so and was relieved from the fear by Allah. One who wants that the distance becomes short for him while traveling should carry a stick of bitter almond.”

When he reaches the age of seventy, the people of heavens start loving him. When he reaches the age of eighty, Allah orders that his good deeds be written down and sins not be written. When he reaches the age of ninety, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime forgives his past and present sins and writes him as a prisoner of Allah on His earth.”

1. Imam Musa Kadhim (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “One who says Bismillaah before mounting an animal, an angel sits behind that person and protects him till he gets down from that animal. However if he does not say Bismillaah, the Satan sits behind him and asks him to sing. If he says that he does know how to sing he asks him to make a wish. Now the person continuously goes on wishing for something or the other till he gets down. One who recites: Bismillaahi wa laa h’aula wa laa quwwata illaa billaahil h’amdu lillaahilladhee hadaanaa lihaadhaa wa sub- h’aanalladhee sakhkhara lanaa haadhaa wa maa kunnaa lahu muqrineen, he and his mount reach the destination safely.”

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْحِمْیَرِیُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ سَدِیرٍ الصَّیْرَفِیِّ قَالَ: کُنْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فَذَکَرُوا عِنْدَهُ الْمُؤْمِنَ فَالْتَفَتَ إِلَیَّ فَقَالَ یَا أَبَا الْفَضْلِ أَ لَا أُحَدِّثُکَ بِحَالِ الْمُؤْمِنِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ قُلْتُ بَلَی فَحَدِّثْنِی قَالَ إِذَا قَبَضَ اللَّهُ رُوحَ الْمُؤْمِنِ صَعِدَ مَلَکَاهُ إِلَی السَّمَاءِ فَقَالا رَبَّنَا عَبْدُکَ فُلَانٌ وَ نِعْمَ الْعَبْدُ کَانَ لَکَ سَرِیعاً فِی طَاعَتِکَ بَطِیئاً فِی مَعْصِیَتِکَ وَ قَدْ قَبَضْتَهُ إِلَیْکَ فَمَا ذَا تَأْمُرُنَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ قَالَ فَیَقُولُ اللَّهُ لَهُمَا اهْبِطَا إِلَی الدُّنْیَا وَ کُونَا عِنْدَ قَبْرِ عَبْدِی فَاحْمَدَانِی وَ سَبِّحَانِی وَ هَلِّلَانِی وَ کَبِّرَانِی وَ اکْتُبَا ذَلِکَ لِعَبْدِی حَتَّی أَبْعَثَهُ مِنْ قَبْرِهِ- ثُمَّ قَالَ أَ لَا أَزِیدُکَ فَقُلْتُ بَلَی فَزِدْنِی فَقَالَ إِذَا بَعَثَ اللَّهُ الْمُؤْمِنَ مِنْ قَبْرِهِ خَرَجَ مَعَهُ مِثَالٌ یَقْدُمُهُ أَمَامَهُ فَکُلَّمَا رَأَی الْمُؤْمِنُ هَوْلًا مِنْ أَهْوَالِ الْقِیَامَهِ قَالَ لَهُ الْمِثَالُ لَا تَحْزَنْ وَ لَا تَفْزَعْ وَ أَبْشِرْ بِالسُّرُورِ وَ الْکَرَامَهِ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَمَا زَالَ یُبَشِّرُهُ بِالسُّرُورِ وَ الْکَرَامَهِ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ حَتَّی یَقِفَ بَیْنَ یَدَیِ اللَّهِ جَلَّ جَلَالُهُ فَیُحَاسِبُهُ حِساباً یَسِیراً وَ یَأْمُرُ بِهِ إِلَی الْجَنَّهِ وَ الْمِثَالُ أَمَامَهُ فَیَقُولُ لَهُ الْمُؤْمِنُ رَحِمَکَ اللَّهُ نِعْمَ الْخَارِجُ خَرَجْتَ مَعِی مِنْ قَبْرِی مَا زِلْتَ تُبَشِّرُنِی بِالسُّرُورِ وَ الْکَرَامَهِ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ حَتَّی رَأَیْتُ ذَلِکَ فَمَنْ أَنْتَ فَیَقُولُ لَهُ الْمِثَالُ أَنَا السُّرُورُ الَّذِی کُنْتَ تُدْخِلُهُ عَلَی أَخِیکَ الْمُؤْمِنِ فِی الدُّنْیَا خَلَقَنِیَ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ لأسترک [لِأَسُرَّکَ].

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Abdillah b. Ja’far al-Himyari from Ahmad b. Muhammad from al-Hassan b. Mahbub from Sadeer al-Sayrafi who said: “When Allah resurrects that believer, his look-alike will also come out with him and it will move ahead of the believer. Whenever the believer fears the stages of the Day of Judgment, this look-alike will tell him not to fear or aggrieve. It will go on giving him glad tidings about good fortune and divine mercy.” “The accounting of deeds will be easy for him and he will be ordered to enter Paradise. This look-alike will walk in front of the believer and the latter will ask: How good you are! You were resurrected from my grave and you are providing me happiness and glad tidings of divine mercy continuously. I have seen everything. After all, who are you? The look-alike will reply: I am the same happiness which you had given to a believer in the world. Allah had created me to give you glad tidings.”

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Yahya al-’Attar from Muhammad b. Ahmad from al-’Abdi from Ibn Abi ’Umayr from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “Surely Allah will shower mercy on a person who loves his children greatly.”

Reward of buying gifts for one’s near and dear ones and making one’s daughter and son happy - Hadith 31245

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ سَلَمَهَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ أَیُّوبَ بْنِ سُلَیْمٍ الْعَطَّارِ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ بَشِیرٍ الْکَاهِلِیِّ عَنْ سلیم [سَالِمٍ] الْأَفْطَسِ عَنْ سَعِیدِ بْنِ جُبَیْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ دَخَلَ السُّوقَ فَاشْتَرَی تُحْفَهً فَحَمَلَهَا إِلَی عِیَالِهِ کَانَ کَحَامِلِ صَدَقَهٍ إِلَی قَوْمٍ مَحَاوِیجَ وَ لْیَبْدَأْ بِالْإِنَاثِ قَبْلَ الذُّکُورِ فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ فَرَّحَ أُنْثَی فَکَأَنَّمَا عتق [أَعْتَقَ] رَقَبَهً مِنْ وُلْدِ إِسْمَاعِیلَ وَ مَنْ أَقَرَّ بِعَیْنِ ابْنٍ فَکَأَنَّمَا بَکَی مِنْ خَشْیَهِ اللَّهِ وَ مَنْ بَکَی مِنْ خَشْیَهِ اللَّهِ أَدْخَلَهُ جَنَّاتِ النَّعِیمِ.

1. The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “One who goes to the market and buys gifts for his near and dear ones, its reward is equal to that of paying sadaqah to a community of needy people. Present gifts to your daughters before sons. A person who makes his daughter happy will get the reward of freeing a slave from the progeny of Ismail (a. s.). A person who makes his sons happy will get the reward of weeping in the fear of Allah. A person who weeps in the fear of Allah, will be rewarded a Paradise full of bounties.”

3. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from Muhammad b. Isa from Abbas al-Zayyat from Hamzah b. Hamran from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “One who has one daughter is burdened. One who has two daughters, you should help him in his problems. One who has three daughters is exempted from jihad and all other difficulties. One who has four daughters, O servants of Allah, help him, give him loans and shower mercy on him.”

4. Abi and Muhammad b. al-Hassan (rah) they said it was narrated to us by Ahmad b. Idris and Muhammad b. Yahya al-’Attarall of them from Muhammad b. Ahmad from Ya’qub b. Yazid who raised it to one of the two Imams al-Baqir or al-Sadiq (a. s.) who said: “Whenever a girl is born, Allah appoints an angel near that child, who touches his wings over her head and chest saying: It is created with weakness. One who bears her expenses will be helped on the Day of Judgment.”

Ghalib from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said that a monk from Bani Israel worshipped Allah so much that he become like a dry stick. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime revealed to His prophet of that time to go and say to him that (Allah says), “By My Greatness, Might and Power, even if you worship Me till you melt like something in the cooking pot, also, I will not accept it from you until you come to Me from the door I have ordered for you.”

1. The narrator says that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) told him, “O Mualla! Even if one prays between rukn and maqaam for a hundred years continuously, fasting during the day and passing nights in Qiyam and prostrating so much so that his brows hang in front of his eyes, his back stoops but he is unaware of our rights, there is no reward for him.”

Abi Najran from ’Asim from Abi Hamzah who said: “The best place is the area between rukn and maqaam. One who gets a life as long as that of prophet Nuh i. e. of 95 years, and if he fasts during the day and offers prayers at this best place at night for his whole life and if he goes to Allah without our love, he will not get benefit of any of his deeds.”

3. The narrator was in the company of Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) and there were about fifty people sitting there. After a long pause, Imam (a. s.) prompted, “What has happened to you? Probably you are thinking that I am a prophet of Allah. I swear by Allah that it is not so and I am in relation with the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) and I am from his progeny. Whoever does good to us will receive goodness from God. Allah will love one who loves us. Allah will deprive one who deprives us. Do you know which part of land is best in position near Allah?” Everyone remained silent. Imam (a. s.) continued, “This holy Mecca is the land most liked by Allah. He made it His Sanctuary and considered it as His house. Do you know which part of Mecca is most honored?” Everyone remained silent and Imam (a. s.) replied himself, “Masjidul Haraam is the most honored part of Mecca. Do you know which place of Masjidul Haraam is most honored by Allah?” Everyone kept quiet and Imam (a. s.) replied himself once again, “That place is between rukn-e-Aswad, maqaam-e-Ibrahim and the door of Kaaba. This is the place of Hateem of Ismail. He had given his sacrifice over here and offered Salaat. I swear by Allah that one who offers prayers at this place standing all night and fasts during day but if he is unaware of our rights and greatness of we, Ahle Bayt, Allah will never accept any of his deeds.”

All the residents of this mountain seek refuge from the extreme heat, stink, filth and chastisement of this, which Allah has prepared for its residents. There is a well in that ravine and all the residents of this ravine seek refuge from the extreme heat, stink, filth and chastisement of this well, which is prepared by Allah for its residents. There is a serpent in that well. The residents of this well seek refuge from the filth, stink and poison of this serpent, which is made for the residents by Allah. There are seven boxes inside this serpent, out of which five are concerned with past Ummahs and two are related to this Ummah.” Ishaq asked, “May I be sacrificed for you, who are those five among the past and two in the present?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “As far as the past five are concerned, they are Qabeel; for he murdered his brother Habeel, Nimrod for he fought with Ibrahim (a. s.) regarding the Lord and said that he gives life and death, Firon; for he said that he was the supreme lord to his subjects, Yahuda; for he made a group of people Jew and Paul, who made some people Christians and from this Ummah are the two desert Arabs (infidels).”

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ya’qub b. Yazid from Ziyad al-Qandi from Muhammad b. Abi Hamzah from Ees b. al-Qasim who said: The discussion of the killer of Imam Husain (a. s.) was going on with Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.). A companion expressed his wish saying that Allah should take revenge from the killer in this world itself. Imam (a. s.) told him, “In this way, you are reducing the punishment of Allah while it is very severe and painful.”

3. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “A dome of light will be made for Fatima on the Day of Judgment. Imam Husain (a. s.) will enter that dome carrying his head in his hands. Fatima (s. a.) will start crying upon seeing him so much so that entire assembly, angels, prophets and messengers and believers will wail loudly. At that time the Almighty Allah will create a handsome youth out of that head to fight with the killers of Imam Husain (a. s.). The Almighty Allah will gather all the killers and their supporters. That youth will kill all of them and they will be brought back to life. Amirul Momineen (a. s.) will come and kill all of them and they will again be brought back to life. Imam Hasan (a. s.) will kill all of them and they will be brought back to life once again. Imam Husain (a. s.) will kill them all and they will be given life again. There will be no person in our progeny who will not give them death. Then the curtain will be moved aside with anger and everyone will forget the sorrow. May Allah shower mercy on our Shias. By Allah, our Shias are true believers for they have grieved with us for a long time in this calamity.”

5. The Holy Prophet (s. w) narrated that Fatima Zahra (a. s) will come surrounded by the women of her family on the Day of Judgment. When asked to enter Paradise, she will say, “I will not enter Paradise until I have seen how my daughters were treated after me.” She will be asked to look at the center of Qiyamat where Imam Husain (a. s.) will be standing headless. He will utter a loud cry and the Holy Prophet (s. w) himself will start mourning loudly. Angels will start weeping on seeing him and Almighty Allah will be enraged at that time. He will order the fire named Hab-hab (which has burned for a thousand years and had become black due to burning. No happiness would have ever entered this fire nor any sorrow would have come out of it) to bring the killers of Imam Husain (a. s.) even if they were Muslims. They will be put into Hell shackled in chains. If they cry, the fire will also cry. If they groan, the fire will also groan. They will cry out, “O Allah! Why were we put into Hell before the infidels?” They will be told, “Those who know are not like those who don’t know.”

6. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Musa b. al-Mutawakil who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Yahya al-’Attar from Muhammad b. Ahmad from Ahmad b. Muhammad from his father from Abdillah b. Abdulrahman al-Asam from Abdillah b. Katheer al-Arjani who said: “Do you know what mountain it is? It is called Jabalul Kamad. It is one of the canyons of Hell, which is reserved as the abode of the killers of Imam Husain (a. s.). The water of Hell flows beneath it. Rivers like Sadeed and Hameem flow beneath it. They will never be able to come out of Hell. They won’t be able to come out of the filth coming out of the genitals of an adulteress, Hutama, Saqar etc. Whenever I pass by this mountain, I halt and see these people cry and seek help. However they did not think of anything while martyring my father. I tell them that this is the result of their deeds. When they had power, they did not care about us. When they got the kingdom, they martyred us, denied us our rights and trespassed them. They did injustice as per their wish without caring for us. ‘May Allah never forgive one who has a soft corner in his heart for you. Taste the fruits of your deeds. Allah does not do injustice to any servant.’”

7. And from the previous chain from Muhammad b. Ahmad from Muhammad b. al-Hussain from Nasr b. Muzahim from Umar b. Sa’eed from Muhammad b. Sa’eed b. al-Khalil from Ya’qub b. Sulayman who said: Yaqoob bin Sulaiman narrates that the discussion of the martyrdom of Imam Husain (a. s.) was going on one night. A person said that all who took part in the martyrdom of Imam Husain (a. s.) had to face some loss either of life or of wealth. An old man interrupted, “I took part in the martyrdom of Imam Husain (a. s.) but I didn’t have to face any calamity.” People felt really bad upon hearing this. Suddenly an oil lamp tumbled and he went to put it up properly. His hands caught fire and were burnt. Then the fire reached his beard and he ran towards water and jumped into the river but fire had already engulfed his head. When he was taken out of the river, this cursed one was completely burnt to death.

8. And from the previous chain from Umar b. Sa’d from al-Qasim b. al-Asbagh b. Nubatah who said: “A man from the Banu Darim, who had witnessed the killing of Al-Husayn (as), came to us. He had a dark face, and he was a handsome and remarkably fair-skinned. I said to him, 'I could hardly recognize you because of the change in your complexion.' He replied, 'I killed a man from the companions of Al-Husayn who had the mark of prostration between his eyes, and I have brought his head.' So al-Qasim said: 'I saw him on a horse, riding cheerfully, with the head hung from his saddle, and the horse's reins were tied to its mane.' I said to my father, 'If he raised the head a little, you would see what the horse is doing with it using its hooves.' So my father replied to me: 'Oh son, what it does to me is even more severse.' He had informed me and said: 'I have not slept a night ever since the time I have murdered him, except that this martyr comes in my dreams, holds my shoulder and asks me to come and takes me towards Hell and throws me inside it, and I would scream.' Al-Qasim said, 'I heard his neighbor say, 'We can't sleep at night because of his screaming.' He said that he and a few persons from the tribe came to his wife and asked her. She told them: 'He himself had done so and what he has been truthful with you.'“

9. And from the previous chain from Umar b. Sa’d who said it was narrated to me by Abu Muawiyah from al-’Amash from Ammar b. ’Umayr al-Taymi who said: Ammar bin Umair Tamimi narrates that when the heads of the cursed Ubaidullah bin Ziyad and his companions were brought, people were saying that a snake was wrapped around his head and it went inside the head of Ubaidullah through a nostril.

10. Amirul Momineen (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. w) said that the head of Imam Husain (a. s.) smeared with blood will be brought to Fatima Zahra (s. a.). She will cry out, “O peace of my heart! O Fruit of my heart.” Angels will lose consciousness on hearing the cries of Fatima and the gathered people will call out, “O Fatima! May Allah kill those who martyred your son.” Allah will say, “I will take revenge from those who martyred Husain (a. s.) in front of your lovers, Shias and followers.” Fatima will be mounted on a mount of Paradise, having a beautiful forehead, white face, black eyes, head made of pure gold and neck made of amber. Its rein will be of green satins. It will be decorated with jewels and its saddle wrapped with divine light. There will be divine mercy in it. Its one step will be equal to a farsakh of this world. Seventy thousand angels will surround this mount and glorify the Lord of both this world and the hereafter saying Laa ilaaha illallaahu Allaahu akbar. A caller will call out from Divine throne: “O people! Lower your gaze; for this is Fatima, the daughter of Muhammad (s. w). She wants to pass by the Sirat Bridge.” Fatima and her followers will pass by the Bridge with great speed. The enemies of Fatima and her progeny will be thrown into Hell.

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates that the Almighty Allah told Prophet Musa (a. s.), “O Musa! This world is a house of punishment. When Adam committed a Tark-e-Awla (leaving a recommended deed), he was sent to this world in return. Whenever a person commits mistake, he is punished in this world. This world is cursed along with all the things present in it except for what is done for Me, the Lord. O Musa, My virtuous servants keep away from this world as much knowledge as they have. And others who are ignorant of Me, chase this world. The eyes of none of My creatures who consider this world great could get peace, while those who considered this world unworthy could get heaps of benefits.”

8. The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “The proud will be gathered on the Day of Judgment with their bodies as diminutive as that of ants. People will tease them till Allah concludes accounting of all the people. Then Allah will put them into Hell where they will be made to drink the dirt coming out of the private parts of a fornicateress and dirty blood and puss of the people of Hell.”

12. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “Allah will not talk to three types of people on the Day of Judgment and neither will He send mercy upon them.

1. It is narrated that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “Three kinds of people will be punished on the Day of Judgment – a person who draws a picture of an animal. He will get punishment from the time soul enters his body and he cannot blow spirit into it on his own. A person who narrates false dreams will be punished as long as two grains of maize continue to meet and he himself cannot make the two grains meet. Molten lead will be poured into the ears of the one who listens to that which is detested by the people.”

1. Imam Musa Kadhim (a. s.) narrates from his ancestors that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “Some people will be ordered to be thrown into Hell on the Day of Judgment. The Almighty Allah will ask the angel of fire not to burn their feet for they walked with them to the mosque. Also He will order not to burn their faces for they used to face Allah while supplicating. He will order not to burn their tongues for they used to recite Quran excessively. The attendant of Hell will ask those people about their sin. They will reply that they used to perform good deeds for others instead of Allah. Those people will be ordered to go and ask for reward from the persons for whom they performed good deeds.”

How is it possible that a person goes to Paradise because of a house fly and another into Hell because of it?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “These two persons went to a tribe, which was celebrating a feast on that day. That tribe had an idol and none was allowed to go near it without offering a sacrifice. However there was no restriction on the size of sacrifice. The tribe refused to permit them passage unless they offered a sacrifice. One of those two persons said that he didn’t have anything to sacrifice. Then he caught a fly, killed it and offered it as a sacrifice while other companion refused to sacrifice even a fly for the sake of anyone except Allah. The tribal people killed him and he entered Paradise. On the other hand, the person who was left alive got punished in Hell.”

Allah says regarding the punishment of the hereafter: (As for) those who swallow the property of the orphans unjustly, surely they only swallow fire into their bellies and they shall enter burning fire.”

2. It is narrated that Imam (a. s.) said, “The Almighty Allah has promised two punishments for those who usurp the wealth of orphans forcefully. One of these is the punishment of hereafter and that is the fire of Hell. Another is the punishment of this world and Allah says regarding this: And let those fear who, should they leave behind them weakly offspring, would fear on their account, so let them be careful of (their duty to) Allah, and let them speak right words. Because your children can be dealt in the similar way as you deal with other orphans.”

Muslim who said: The narrator asked Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) regarding the verse: they shall have that whereof they were niggardly made to cleave to their necks on the resurrection day. Imam (a. s.) replied, “For one who does not pay Zakat from his wealth, the Almighty Allah will make a serpent of fire from that wealth and put it around the neck of that person on the Day of Judgment.

2. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from Ayoob’ b. Nuh from Ibn Sinan from Abi al-Jarud from Abi Ja’far (a. s.) who said: “Surely some people will have their hands tied behind their necks when they are brought out of the graves on the Day of Judgment. They will not have the strength to hold the lightest thing. Some angels will accompany them torturing them severely and saying: These are the people who did not do any good from the abundance. Allah had given a lot to these people but they did not pay Allah’s share from their wealth.”

Punishment of not paying Zakat - Hadith 31386

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ خَلَفِ بْنِ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ حَرِیزٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع مَا مِنْ ذِی مَالٍ ذَهَبٍ وَ لَا فِضَّهٍ یَمْنَعُ زَکَاهَ مَالِهِ إِلَّا حَبَسَهُ اللَّهُ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَهِ بِقَاعٍ قَرْقَرٍ سَلَّطَ عَلَیْهِ شُجَاعاً أَقْرَعَ یُرِیدُهُ وَ هُوَ یَحِیدُ عَنْهُ فَإِذَا رَأَی أَنَّهُ لَا یَتَخَلَّصُ مِنْهُ و أَمْکَنَهُ مِنْ یَدِهِ فَقَضَمَهَا کَمَا یُقْضَمُ الْفُجْلُ حَتَّی یَصِیرَ طَوْقاً فِی عُنُقِهِ وَ ذَلِکَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ- سَیُطَوَّقُونَ ما بَخِلُوا بِهِ یَوْمَ الْقِیامَهِ وَ مَا مِنْ ذِی مَالٍ وَ إِبِلٍ أَوْ بَقَرٍ أَوْ غَنَمٍ یَمْنَعُ زَکَاهَ مَالِهِ إِلَّا حَبَسَهُ اللَّهُ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَهِ بِقَاعٍ قَرْقَرٍ یَطَؤُهُ کُلُّ ذِی ظِلْفٍ بِظِلْفِهَا وَ یَنْهَشُهُ کُلُّ ذِی نَابٍ بِنَابِهَا وَ مَا مِنْ ذِی مَالٍ نَخْلٍ أَوْ کَرْمٍ أَوْ زَرْعٍ یَمْنَعُ زَکَاتَهَا إِلَّا طَوَّقَهُ اللَّهُ رَیْعَهَ أَرْضِهِ إِلَی سَبْعِ أَرَضِینَ إِلَی یَوْمِ الْقِیَامَهِ.

3. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “One who owns gold and silver and does not pay Zakat; the Almighty Allah will do the accounting of his deeds in a barren desert on the Day of Judgment. He will appoint a serpent whose venom would have reached its hair from its head. The serpent will follow the person who will try to run away. However when he comes to know that it is difficult to save himself from the serpent, the person will try to defend himself using his hands. The serpent will pounce upon him within the twinkling of an eye and shackle him by his neck. This is in accordance with the saying of Allah: they shall have that whereof they were niggardly made to cleave to their necks on the resurrection day. Similarly one who owns camels, cows, sheep and goats and does not pay Zakat, the Almighty Allah will capture him in a barren desert. Every poisonous creature present over there will sting him. Similarly one who owns dates, grapes and farms and does not pay Zakat, the Almighty Allah will shackle him in the ring made as large as the seven layers of the earth.”

Punishment of not paying Zakat - Hadith 31387

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ یَحْیَی عَنْ دَاوُدَ عَنْ أَخِیهِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: بَعَثَنِی إِنْسَانٌ إِلَی أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع زَعَمَ أَنَّهُ یَفْزَعُ فِی مَنَامِهِ یَرَی امْرَأَتَهُ تَأْتِیهِ فَیَصِیحُ حَتَّی سَمِعَ الْجِیرَانُ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع اذْهَبْ فَقُلْ لَهُ إِنَّکَ لَا تُؤَدِّی الزَّکَاهَ فَقَالَ بَلَی وَ اللَّهِ إِنِّی لَأُؤَدِّیهَا قَالَ فَقُلْ لَهُ إِنْ کُنْتَ تُؤَدِّیهَا فَإِنَّکَ لَا تُؤْتِیهَا أَهْلَهَا.

4. And from the previous chain from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah from his father from Safwan b. Yahya from Dawud from his brother Abdillah who said: Once a person sent the narrator to Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.). This person used to murmur in his sleep out of fear of a woman. His voice used to increase so much that it reached the neighbors. Imam (a. s.) told the narrator to go and ask that person whether he had avoided paying Zakat. The person replied, “By Allah! I pay Zakat regularly.” Imam (a. s.) told the narrator to convey that he pays Zakat regularly but does not give it to those who are eligible.

Punishment of not paying Zakat - Hadith 31388

وَ ذَکَرَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ فِی رِوَایَهِ أَبِی بَصِیرٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع یَقُولُ مَنْ مَنَعَ الزَّکَاهَ سَأَلَ الرَّجْعَهَ عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ وَ هُوَ قَوْلُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ حَتَّی إِذا جاءَ أَحَدَهُمُ الْمَوْتُ قالَ رَبِّ ارْجِعُونِ لَعَلِّی أَعْمَلُ صالِحاً فِیما تَرَکْتُ

5. It is narrated that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said that one who does not pay Zakat, will desire to return to this world once again after his death. This verse of the Holy Quran points out the same fact: Until when death overtakes one of them, he says: Send me back, my Lord, send me back; Haply I may do good in that which I have left.”

Punishment of not paying Zakat - Hadith 31389

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِیٍّ مَاجِیلَوَیْهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ الْکُوفِیِّ عَنْ مُوسَی بْنِ شَعْبَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ مَالِکِ بْنِ عَطِیَّهَ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ تَغْلِبَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع ذَنْبَانِ فِی الْإِسْلَامِ لَا یَقْضِی فِیهِمَا أَحَدٌ بِحُکْمِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ حَتَّی یَقُومَ قَائِمُنَا الزَّانِی الْمُحْصَنُ یَرْجُمُهُ وَ مَانِعُ الزَّکَاهِ یَضْرِبُ عُنُقَهُ.

6. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “There are two sins in Islam whose punishment will not be given in this world before the reappearance of Imam-e-Zamana. One of them is stoning a fornicator who is married and another is breaking the neck of the person who does not pay Zakat.”

Punishment of not paying Zakat - Hadith 31390

وَ ذُکِرَ أَنَّ فِی رِوَایَهِ أَبِی بَصِیرٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع- مَنْ مَنَعَ الزَّکَاهَ فَلْیَمُتْ إِنْ شَاءَ یَهُودِیّاً أَوْ نَصْرَانِیّاً.

7. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “One who does not pay Zakat throughout his life, will desire to return to this world at the time of his death. One who avoids payment of a penny of Zakat and he dies, he has an option i. e. to die as a Jew or as a Christian.”

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Ali b. Ibrahim from his father from Abdillah b. Maymun from Abi Abdillah from his father (a. s.) who said it was mentioned in the will of Ameer al-Mumineen (a. s.) who said: Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates from his father that according to a will of Amirul Momineen (a. s.): Do not leave the Hajj of the House of your Lord else you will be destroyed. One who does not perform the Hajj because of worldly desires, his desires will not be fulfilled until the pilgrims return after shaving their heads (after completing the Hajj rituals).

Punishment of not performing an obligatory Hajj - Hadith 31395

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِیٍّ مَاجِیلَوَیْهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ الْکُوفِیِّ عَنْ مُوسَی بْنِ سَعْدَانَ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ أَبِی الْعَلَاءِ عَنْ ذَرِیحٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ یَقُولُ مَنْ مَاتَ وَ لَمْ یَحُجَّ حِجَّهَ الْإِسْلَامِ وَ لَمْ تَمْنَعْهُ مِنْ ذَلِکَ حَاجَهٌ تُجْحِفُ بِهِ أَوْ مَرَضٌ لَا یُطِیقُ الْحَجَّ مِنْ أَجْلِهِ أَوْ سُلْطَانٌ یَمْنَعُهُ فَلْیَمُتْ یَهُودِیّاً أَوْ نَصْرَانِیّاً.

Role of tongue in reward and punishment - Hadith 31396

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ السِّنْدِیِّ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ الْحَکَمِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِیمَ بْنِ مِهْزَمٍ الْأَسَدِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی حَمْزَهَ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ ع إِنَّ لِسَانَ ابْنِ آدَمَ لَیُشْرِفُ کُلَّ یَوْمٍ عَلَی جَوَارِحِهِ فَیَقُولُ کَیْفَ أَصْبَحْتُمْ فَیَقُولُونَ بِخَیْرٍ إِنْ تَرَکْتَنَا وَ یَقُولُونَ اللَّهَ اللَّهَ فِینَا وَ یُنَاشِدُونَهُ وَ یَقُولُونَ إِنَّمَا نُثَابُ بِکَ وَ نُعَاقَبُ بِکَ.

1. Imam Zainul Abideen (a. s.) said, “The human tongue does a favor on other parts of the body every day. It inquires about their condition. The parts of body say: If you spare us, we will remain in good condition. They beg for Allah’s mercy and say that if they are rewarded, it is because of the tongue and if they are punished, it is also because of the tongue.”

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates from his ancestors that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said that there are four kinds of people who will involve other inmates of Hell in their punishment. They will wail loudly after drinking boiling water. The people of Hell will ask: “What is the sin of these four types of people for they are given extra punishment in addition to that given to us? Their punishment is increasing our suffering also.” One of them would be hanging in a casket of fire, second will be drinking vomit and smoke, dirt and blood will be coming out of the mouth of the third and fourth will eat his own flesh continuously. The first one will be asked: “O one away from the mercy of Allah! What sin did you commit for which we have to suffer in addition to our own punishment?” He will reply, “I was having rights of others and I died without fulfilling them.” Then the person drinking smoke will be asked, “O one away from the mercy of Allah! What sin did you commit for which we have to suffer in addition to our own punishment?” He will reply, “The reason I am away from the mercy of Allah is that my body used to become impure with urine and I never cared about it.” Then the person whose mouth will have dirt and blood coming out will be asked, “O one away from the mercy of Allah! What sin did you commit for which we have to suffer in addition to our own punishment?” The person will reply, “I am away from the mercy of Allah because I used to spread scandals and publicize obscenity.” Then the person who is eating his own flesh will be asked, “O one away from the mercy of Allah! What sin did you commit for which we have to suffer in addition to our own punishment?” He will reply, “I used to eat the flesh of people by backbiting and used to slander.”

2. It is narrated that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “One who among our lovers tries to help a believer but does not make full effort in his cause, has surely distrusted Allah, His Messenger and the believers.” The narrator asked Imam what he meant by a believer. Imam (a. s.) replied, “A person who has faith in all Imams from Amirul Momineen (a. s.) to the last Imam (a. s.).”

Abi al-Khattab from al-Khattab from al-Hassan b. Mahbub from al-Muthana from Abi Basir from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “Do not insult a poor believer because the Almighty Allah insults one who insults a poor believer. Allah will become his enemy till he does not stop doing so or repents for his deed. One who disgraces a believer because of his poverty the Almighty Allah will disgrace him on the Day of Judgment in front of His entire creation.”

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ahmad b. Abdillah from Muhammad b. Sinan from Abi al-’Ala from Abi Khalid al-Sayqal from Abi Ja’far (a. s.) who said: “The Almighty Allah delegated the power to an angel of His to build all of the seven earths and heavens. When he created them and found that everyone has started obeying him, he called out: Is there anyone like me? The Almighty Allah sent a little fire in order to burn down everything so that he gets to know the consequence of boasting.” The narrator asked about the amount of fire sent. Imam (a. s.) replied, “It was just a handful.”

Punishment of avoiding beggars and walking proudly - Hadith 31459

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ سُلَیْمَانَ بْنِ سَمَاعَهَ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَاصِمٍ الْکُوفِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِیهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِذَا تضامت [تَصَامَّتْ] أُمَّتِی عَنْ سَائِلِهَا وَ مَشَتْ بِتَبَخْتُرِهَا حَلَفَ رَبِّی عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِعِزَّتِهِ فَقَالَ لَأُعَذِّبَنَّ بَعْضَهُمْ بِبَعْضٍ.

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates from his ancestors that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “My Ummah will remain safe till they do not betray trust and return the things to their owners and pay Zakat. When they cease to do so, they will face famine and drought.”

Punishment of sins - Hadith 31461

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْحِمْیَرِیُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مَالِکِ بْنِ عَطِیَّهَ عَنْ أَبِی حَمْزَهَ الثُّمَالِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَیْسَتْ سَنَهٌ أَمْطَرَ مِنْ سَنَهٍ وَ لَکِنْ یَصِفُهُ [یَضَعُهُ] حَیْثُ یَشَاءُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِذَا عَمِلَ قَوْمٌ بِالْمَعَاصِی صَرَفَ عَنْهُمْ مَا کَانَ قَدَّرَ لَهُمْ مِنَ الْمَطَرِ فِی تِلْکَ السَّنَهِ إِلَی غَیْرِهَا مِنَ الْفَیَافِی وَ الْبِحَارِ وَ الْجِبَالِ وَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَیُعَذِّبُ الْجُعَلَ فِی جُحْرِهَا یَحْبِسُ الْمَطَرَ عَنِ الْأَرْضِ لخطإ [لِخَطَایَا] مَنْ بحضرته [بِحَضْرَتِهَا] وَ قَدْ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ لَهُ السَّبِیلَ وَ الْمَسْلَکَ إِلَی مَحَلِّ أَهْلِ الطَّاعَهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع فَاعْتَبِرُوا یا أُولِی الْأَبْصارِ وَ الْأَلْبَابِ- ثُمَّ قَالَ وَجَدْنَا فِی کِتَابِ أَمِیرِ الْمُؤْمِنِینَ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِذَا ظَهَرَ الزِّنَاءُ کَثُرَ مَوْتُ الْفَجْأَهِ وَ إِذَا طُفِّفَ الْمِکْیَالُ أَخَذَهُمُ اللَّهُ بِالسِّنِینَ وَ النَّقْصِ وَ إِذَا مَنَعُوا الزَّکَاهَ مَنَعَتِ الْأَرْضُ بَرَکَتَهَا مِنَ الزَّرْعِ وَ الثِّمَارِ وَ الْمَعَادِنِ وَ إِذَا جَارُوا فِی الْأَحْکَامِ وَ تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَی الظُّلْمِ وَ الْعُدْوَانِ وَ إِذَا نَقَضُوا الْعُهُودَ سَلَّطَ اللَّهُ عَلَیْهِمْ عَدُوَّهُمْ وَ إِذَا قَطَّعُوا الْأَرْحَامَ جُعِلَتِ الْأَمْوَالُ فِی أَیْدِی أَشْرَارِهِمْ وَ إِذَا لَمْ یَأْمُرُوا بِمَعْرُوفٍ وَ لَمْ یَنْهَوْا عَنْ مُنْکَرٍ وَ لَمْ یَتَّبِعُوا الْأَخْیَارَ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَیْتِی سَلَّطَ اللَّهُ عَلَیْهِمْ أَشْرَارَهُمْ فیدعوا [فَیَدْعُو] أَخْیَارُهُمْ فَلَا یُسْتَجَابُ لَهُمْ.

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Musa b. al-Mutawakil who said it was narrated to me by Abdillah b. Ja’far al-Himyari from Ahmad b. Muhammad from al-Hassan b. Mahbub from Malik b. ’Atiyyah from Abi Hamzah al-Thumali from Abi Ja’far (a. s.) who said: When extra-marital sex becomes common, the number of deaths increase suddenly. When cheating increases much, Allah involves people in drought and loss. When people stop paying Zakat, the Almighty Allah stops abundance of crops and yield from earth. When injustice spreads, people start helping each other in unjust causes and when promises are broken, Allah leaves them at the mercy of their enemies. When relations are broken, wealth is handed over to evil people. When people are not called towards good and are not stopped from doing evil and when the virtuous among our Ahle Bait (a. s.) are not obeyed, the Almighty Allah will give their control to evil people. At that time, virtuous people will pray but their prayers will not be accepted.”

Punishment of sins - Hadith 31462

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِیسَی عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِی نَصْرٍ الْبَزَنْطِیِّ عَنْ أَبَانٍ الْأَحْمَرِ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص خَمْسٌ إِذَا أَدْرَکْتُمُوهُنَّ فَتَعَوَّذُوا بِاللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مِنْهُنَّ لَمْ تَظْهَرِ الْفَاحِشَهُ فِی قَوْمٍ قَطُّ حَتَّی یُعْلِنُوهَا إِلَّا وَ ظَهَرَ فِیهِمُ الطَّاعُونُ وَ الْأَوْجَاعُ الَّتِی لَمْ تَکُنْ فِی أَسْلَافِهِمُ الَّذِینَ مَضَوْا وَ لَمْ یَنْقُصُوا الْمِکْیَالَ وَ الْمِیزَانَ إِلَّا أُخِذُوا بِالسِّنِینَ وَ شِدَّهِ الْمَئُونَهِ وَ جَوْرِ السُّلْطَانِ وَ لَمْ یَمْنَعُوا الزَّکَاهَ إِلَّا مُنِعُوا الْمَطَرَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ لَوْ لَا الْبَهَائِمُ لَمْ یُمْطَرُوا وَ لَمْ یَنْقُضُوا عَهْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ عَهْدَ رَسُولِهِ إِلَّا سَلَّطَ اللَّهُ عَلَیْهِمْ عَدُوَّهُمْ فَأَخَذُوهُمْ بَعْضَ مَا فِی أَیْدِیهِمْ وَ لَمْ یَحْکُمُوا بِغَیْرِ مَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا جَعَلَ بَأْسَهُمْ بَیْنَهُمْ.

2. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “There are five things from which you should seek Allah’s refuge. When people of a community start sinning openly, epidemic plagues, which were not destined for them earlier, become common. When people start cheating in weight, they have to face drought and oppression of an unjust ruler. When Zakat is not paid, rainfall is reduced and they would not have received rain had there been no animal among them. When the oaths of Allah and promises to His Messenger are broken, the Almighty Allah gives their control to their enemies. He takes away whatever is present with them. When people act without obeying Allah’s commands, He sends His chastisement on them.”

Punishment of sins - Hadith 31463

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِیمَ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِیِّ عَنِ السَّکُونِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص سَیَأْتِی فِی أُمَّتِی زَمَانٌ تَخْبُثُ فِیهِ سَرَائِرُهُمْ وَ تَحْسُنُ فِیهِ عَلَانِیَتُهُمْ طَمَعاً فِی الدُّنْیَا لَا یُرِیدُونَ بِهِ مَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ یَکُونُ أَمْرُهُمْ رِیَاءً لَا یُخَالِطُهُمْ خَوْفٌ یَعُمُّهُمُ اللَّهُ بِعِقَابٍ فَیَدْعُونَهُ دُعَاءَ الْغَرِیقِ فَلَا یُسْتَجَابُ لَهُمْ.

3. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “A time will come when my Ummah will become impure from inside and attractive from outside in order to acquire wealth. They will do showoff instead of gaining divine rewards. They will not fear Allah. Allah will punish all of them. At that time, people will supplicate like a drowning man but their supplications will not be accepted.”

Punishment of sins - Hadith 31464

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص سَیَأْتِی عَلَی أُمَّتِی زَمَانٌ لَا یَبْقَی مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ إِلَّا رَسْمُهُ وَ مِنَ الْإِسْلَامِ إِلَّا اسْمُهُ یُسَمَّوْنَ بِهِ وَ هُمْ أَبْعَدُ النَّاسِ مِنْهُ مَسَاجِدُهُمْ عَامِرَهٌ وَ هِیَ خَرَابٌ مِنَ الْهُدَی فُقَهَاءُ ذَلِکَ الزَّمَانِ شَرُّ فُقَهَاءَ تَحْتَ ظِلِّ السَّمَاءِ مِنْهُمْ خَرَجَتِ الْفِتْنَهُ وَ إِلَیْهِمْ تَعُودُ.

4. The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “A time will come on my Ummah when only the name of the Holy Quran will remain. They will have only the title of Islam while they will be far away from it. Their mosques will be filled apparently but will be completely deprived of guidance. Their jurists will be worst under this sky and mischief will start from them and return to them.

5. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Ali Majluwayh from his uncle Muhammad b. Abi al-Qasim from Muhammad b. Ali al-Kufi from Muhammad b. Sinan from Hamad b. Uthman from Khalaf b. Hamad from Rib’i from al-Fudhayl b. Yasar from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “When some people of a community start disobeying Allah, they will be the army of Iblees whether they ride or walk.”

Punishment of sins - Hadith 31466

6. It is narrated that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “Surely, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime sent a prophet to his community and sent revelation unto him: Tell your community that there is no city or tribe which obeys Me and is still faced with calamity. The people kept away from what I liked and chose to love what I had prohibited. At last, I have disliked what they like and loved what they disliked.”

Won’t you ask about that calamity?” It was asked: “O Amirul Momineen (a. s.) what calamity is it?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “They include a sinful scholar, a hypocrite reciter of Quran, a corrupt minister, false scholars and promise- breakers. There is a city named Hasiniya in Hell and won’t you inquire what is there in that city?” It was asked: “O Amirul Momineen (a. s.) what is there in it?” He replied, “It will contain the hands of those who break promises.”

Sa’eed from his father Sa’eed al-Halwani from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “What have you done to yourselves? What happened to you?” The person replied, “We were fine in the morning and reached Hawiya at night.” He was asked what Hawiya was. The person answered, “It is an ocean of fire having mountains of fire.” He was asked the reason for being sent to that place. He replied, “Because of the love of this world and worship of idols.” He was asked, “How much love did you have for this world?” The person replied, “We loved it as much as a child loves its mother. The child becomes happy when she comes and becomes sad when she goes away.” He was asked, “How much did you worship the devil?” He answered, “We used to obey whenever a command was given to us.” He was asked, “Why is it so that only you are replying and others are quiet?” He replied, “Because their mouths are filled with fire and angels appointed over them are torturing them severely. I used to live with them but did not act like them. The chastisement took me along with these people. Till now, I am hanging from a wire as thin as a hair. I fear that I will also fall in the fire of Hell.” Isa (a. s.) told his companions, “Sleeping on dry grass and eating barley bread is a way to save ourselves.”

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates from his ancestors that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) was asked, “What will have salvation on the Day of Judgment?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) replied, “Salvation is only and only in not cheating Allah so that He also doesn’t cheat you. Surely Allah cheats a person who cheats Him and takes faith away from him. A person should know that he has cheated himself.” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) was asked, “How does a person cheat Allah?” He answered, “By obeying the order of Allah but for the sake of someone else. Keep away from showoff because it is polytheism. Surely, a person who does showoff will be called with four names on the Day of Judgment viz. O disbeliever, O mischief-monger, O cunning, O loser! Your deeds are wasted. Your reward was reduced continuously and there is nothing left for you today. Go and ask for the reward from one for whom you performed good deeds.”

2. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates from his ancestors that Allah has said in one of the books revealed on prophets, “One of My creatures has made religion a way to acquire this world. They have the heart of a wolf and are wearing the skin of a sheep. They do not have even an iota of patience but their words are sweeter than honey. All of their hidden actions are having stench more than that of a corpse. Will they cheat Me for mercy? Or they are stepping ahead of Me? I swear by My honor that I will involve them in such a calamity that they will roll in it from one corner of earth to another. It will be wise to split them in different groups so that they take revenge from other such people over there. My enemies will take revenge from My other enemies and I will not have to worry about it at all.”

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ya’qub b. Yazid from Muhammad b. Abi ’Umayr from Hisham b. al-Hakam from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “There was a man in the former times who sought the worldly matters by permissible means but was not able to. So, he sought it by prohibited means, but he was not able to. So, Satan came up to him and said, ‘O you! You have sought the worldly matters from permissible means, but you were not able to, and sought it by prohibited means but you were not able to. Shall I direct you to a thing by which your world would be abundant, and you would have abundant followers?’ He said, ‘Of course!’ Shaytan said, ‘Innovate a Religion and invite the people towards it’. So, he did it and the people obeyed him, and he secured (a lot) from the world. Then he pondered and said, ‘What thing have I done? I innovated a religion and invited people to it. I do not see repentance for myself except that I should come to the ones I invited and return them back’. So, he went to his companions who had responded to him, and he said, 'Indeed, that which I have invited to is false, but rather it was I who innovated it and made it up’. So, they went on to say, ‘You are lying! But it is the truth, you are doubting in your religion, so you have returned (to falsehood)’. So, when he saw that, he deliberately chained himself, and pegged it to the ground, and chained himself around his neck, and said, 'I will remain in this condition until Allah forgives me’. The Almighty Allah sent one of His prophets to him and told him to convey the message to the person, 'I swear by My honor that I am not going to forgive you even if you repent so much that the joints of your body are cut. If the person wants to be forgiven, he should bring back to life those people who died on his religion and bring them back (to truth).’.

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah who said it was narrated to me by Ahmad b. al-Hussain b. Sa’eed from Uthman b. Isa from some of his companions from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) said: “The Almighty Allah has created a house in Paradise as well as in Hell for each and every creature. When the people of Paradise and Hell go to their respective houses, a call will be given out: O people of Paradise! Look down. When the people look down they will see their houses in Hell. They will be told: You would have been given those had you disobeyed Allah. The people of Paradise will die out of happiness for being saved. Then the people of Hell will be told: O people of Hell! Look above your heads. They will lift their heads and look above. They will be able to see their houses filled with bounties in Paradise. They will be told: You would have been given these had you followed the commands of Allah. The people of Hell will die out of the grief. They will be given their respective houses which they deserved. This is the exegesis of the verse of Allah, in which He says: These are they who are the heirs. Who shall inherit the Paradise; they shall be the heirs. Who shall inherit the Paradise; they shall be the heirs. Who shall inherit the Paradise; they shall be the heirs. Who shall inherit the Paradise; they shall abide therein. abide therein. abide therein. abide therein.”

1. It was narrated to me by al-Hussain b. Ahmad who said it was narrated to me by Abi from Muhammad b. Ahmad from Muhammad b. Ismail from Ali b. al-Hakam from his father from Abi al-Jarud from ’Amru b. Qays al-Mashraqi who said: “I can see dye applied on your hair. Are your hairs turning white?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “Yes it is the dye which I have applied. We, the Hashemites turn old soon.” Then Imam glanced at the narrator and asked, “Have you come for my help?” The narrator replied, “I have become aged and turned old. I have huge loans on my head and I have a large family. I am also having the things of other people with me kept as trust. I don’t know what will happen to me if I go with you? I don’t want to deprive so many people of their trust.” The cousin also gave similar excuses for not accompanying the Imam (a. s.). Upon this, Imam (a. s.) told them, “Go away from this place as if you have not heard me asking for help because one who hears an Imam asking for help and turns a deaf ear, will be thrown headlong into Hell.”

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates from his ancestors that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said that a caller will call out on the Day of Judgment, “Where are oppressors and their helpers? Those who bring ink for them, who prepare bags for them and those who hold the pen for them; all are included among their helpers.”

Punishment of getting proximity to unjust rulers - Hadith 31491

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَا اقْتَرَبَ عَبْدٌ مِنْ سُلْطَانٍ إِلَّا تَبَاعَدَ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَ لَا کَثُرَ مَالُهُ إِلَّا اشْتَدَّ حِسَابُهُ وَ لَا کَثُرَ تَبِعَتُهُ إِلَّا کَثُرَتْ شَیَاطِینُهُ.

2. The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “Keep away from the doors of the king and his confidants because as a person goes near them, he goes far from Allah. A person who considers the king more important than Allah will continue to lose piety and remain confused and perplexed.”

أَبِی رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِدْرِیسَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُوسَی بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنِ ابْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِی الْجَارُودِ عَنْ سَعْدٍ الْإِسْکَافِ عَنِ الْأَصْبَغِ عَنْ أَمِیرِ الْمُؤْمِنِینَ ع قَالَ: أَیُّمَا وَالٍ احْتَجَبَ عَنْ حَوَائِجِ النَّاسِ احْتَجَبَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَهِ وَ عَنْ حَوَائِجِهِ وَ إِنْ أَخَذَ هَدِیَّهً کَانَ غُلُولًا وَ إِنْ أَخَذَ رِشْوَهً فَهُوَ مُشْرِکٌ.

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Ahmad b. Idris from Muhammad b. Ahmad from Muhammad b. Musa b. ’Amru from Ibn Sinan from Abi al-Jarud from Sa’d al-Iskafi from al-Asbagh from Ameer al-Mumineen (a. s.) who said: “If a ruler does not fulfill the needs of his subjects, Allah will not fulfill his wishes on the Day of Judgment.

Punishment of Silence against Evil - Hadith 31495

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ رَفَعَهُ إِلَی أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: مَا قَرَبَ قَوْمٌ مِنَ الْمُنْکِرِینَ أَظْهُرَهُمْ لَا یُعَیِّرُونَهُ إِلَّا أَوْشَکَ أَنْ یَعُمَّهُمُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِعِقَابٍ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ.

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ahmad b. Muhammad b.

Punishment of Silence against Evil - Hadith 31496

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِی الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ مَسْعَدَهَ بْنِ صَدَقَهَ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِیهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِنَّ الْمُصِیبَهَ إِذَا عَمِلَ بِهَا الْعَبْدُ سِرّاً لَمْ تُضِرَّ إِلَّا عَامِلَهَا وَ إِذَا عَمِلَ بِهَا عَلَانِیَهً وَ لَمْ یُعَیَّرْ عَلَیْهِ أَضَرَّتِ الْعَامَّهَ قَالَ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ع وَ ذَلِکَ أَنَّهُ یُذِلُّ بِعَمَلِهِ دِینَ اللَّهِ وَ یَقْتَدِی بِهِ أَهْلُ عَدَاوَهٍ.

2. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) narrates from his ancestors that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “One who is committing sins secretly, it is harmful for that individual himself. However if he is sinning openly and is not being restrained, it is harmful for everyone.” Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) said, “It is an insult of Allah’s religion. The sinners and their followers are like enemies of Allah.”

Punishment of Silence against Evil - Hadith 31497

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ قَالَ قَالَ عَلِیٌّ ع أَیُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَی لَا یُعَذِّبُ الْعَامَّهَ بِذَنْبِ الْخَاصَّهِ إِذَا عَمِلَتِ الْخَاصَّهُ بِالْمُنْکَرِ سِرّاً مِنْ غَیْرِ أَنْ تَعْلَمَ الْعَامَّهُ فَإِذَا عَمِلَتِ الْخَاصَّهُ بِالْمُنْکَرِ جِهَاراً فَلَمْ یُعَیِّرْ ذَلِکَ الْعَامَّهُ اسْتَوْجَبَ الْفَرِیقَانِ الْعُقُوبَهَ مِنَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَی- وَ قَالَ لَا یَحْضُرَنَّ أَحَدُکُمْ رَجُلًا یَضْرِبُهُ سُلْطَانٌ جَائِرٌ ظُلْماً وَ عُدْوَاناً وَ لَا مَقْبُولًا وَ لَا مَظْلُوماً إِذَا لَمْ یَنْصُرْهُ- لِأَنَّ نُصْرَهَ الْمُؤْمِنِ فَرِیضَهٌ وَاجِبَهٌ فَإِذَا هُوَ حَضَرَهُ وَ الْعَافِیَهُ أَوْسَعُ مَا لَمْ یَلْزَمْکَ الْحُجَّهُ الْحَاضِرَهُ قَالَ وَ لَمَّا وَقَعَ التَّقْصِیرُ فِی بَنِی إِسْرَائِیلَ جَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْهُمْ یَرَی أَخَاهُ عَلَی الذَّنْبِ فَیَنْهَاهُ فَلَا یَنْتَهِی فَلَا یَمْنَعُهُ مِنْ ذَلِکَ أَنْ یَکُونَ أَکِیلَهُ وَ جَلِیسَهُ وَ شَرِیبَهُ حَتَّی ضَرَبَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَی قُلُوبَ بَعْضِهِمْ بِبَعْضٍ وَ نَزَلَ فِیهِمُ الْقُرْآنُ حَیْثُ یَقُولُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ- لُعِنَ الَّذِینَ کَفَرُوا مِنْ بَنِی إِسْرائِیلَ عَلی لِسانِ داوُدَ وَ عِیسَی ابْنِ مَرْیَمَ ذلِکَ بِما عَصَوْا وَ کانُوا یَعْتَدُونَ. کانُوا لا یَتَناهَوْنَ عَنْ مُنکَرٍ فَعَلُوهُ إِلَی آخِرِ الْآیَهِ.

3. Amirul Momineen (a. s.) said, “Surely Allah will not send chastisement on all because of the sins of some people until they commit sins secretly and others are not aware of it. However if they sin openly and are not restrained from it, everybody will be deserving of divine chastisement. If an unjust king kills someone out of oppression and enmity or does any other injustice, you should not remain over there. If you are, helping the victim becomes obligatory for you. However there is no responsibility upon you until the innocence of the victim is proved. People of Bani Israel were careless about prohibited deeds. Once a person sinned in front of his brother who advised him not to do so but he turned a deaf ear to his words. This sin did not affect their friendship in any way. At last, Allah put the love of that sin in their hearts and these verses are revealed for those persons: Those who disbelieved from among the children of Israel were cursed by the tongue of Dawood and Isa, son of Maryam; this was because they disobeyed and used to exceed the limit. They used not to forbid each other the hateful things (which) they did; certainly evil was that which they did.”46

Punishment of adulterer and adulteress - Hadith 31498

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِیٍّ مَاجِیلَوَیْهِ عَنْ عَمِّهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ الْکُوفِیِّ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَیْمُونٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِیهِ ع قَالَ: لِلزَّانِی سِتَّهُ خِصَالٍ ثَلَاثٌ فِی الدُّنْیَا وَ ثَلَاثٌ فِی الْآخِرَهِ أَمَّا الَّتِی فِی الدُّنْیَا فَیَذْهَبُ بِنُورِ الْوَجْهِ وَ یُورِثُ الْفَقْرَ وَ یُعَجِّلُ الْفَنَاءَ وَ أَمَّا الَّتِی فِی الْآخِرَهِ فیسخط [فَسَخَطُ] الرَّبِّ وَ سُوءُ الْحِسَابِ وَ الْخُلُودُ فِی النَّارِ.

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Ali Majluwayh from his uncle Muhammad b. Ali al-Kufi from Ibn Fadhal from Abdillah b. Maymun from Abi Abdillah from his father (a. s.) who said: that there are six kinds of punishments for an adulterer. Three are related to this world and three to the hereafter. The punishments of this world are that the person will continue to lose the brilliance of his face; he will face poverty and die soon. The punishments of hereafter include displeasure of Allah on the Day of judgment, bad accounting of deeds and living in Hell forever.

Punishment of adulterer and adulteress - Hadith 31499

2. Amirul Momineen (a. s.) relates that the Almighty Allah will spread a foul stench in the air on the Day of Judgment. This stench will irritate everyone assembled over there to an extent that people will start suffocating because of it. A caller will ask, “Do you know from where this stench is coming which is troubling you so much?” People will reply, “We don’t know from where it is coming but we know that it is very suffocating indeed.” They will be told, “This is the smell of the genitals of adulterers. Those who committed adultery and passed away from the world without repenting. May Allah’s curse be upon them. You all should curse them.” Each and everyone gathered over there will say, “May Allah’s curse be upon them.”

3. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Ali b. Ibrahim from his father from Muhammad b. Abi ’Umayr from Muawiyah b. Ammar from Sabah b. Sayabeh who said: The narrator was with Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a. s.) when Imam (a. s.) was asked, “Is an adulterer a believer at the time of committing that sin?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “When he is committing the sin, faith is taken away from him and returned to him after the act.” Imam was asked, “What about one who wants to commit the sin once again?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “In most cases, even if people try to do so they are not able to.”

4. It is narrated that Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.) said, “When a person commits fornication, he is not alone and the Shaitaan accompanies him. Both of them commit this sin together. The semen is of one person only but the child belongs to both of them. Hence he is a partner of Shaitaan.”

6. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Ali Majluwayh from Ali b. Ibrahim from Muhammad b. Abi ’Umayr from Ishaq b. Hilal from Abi Abdillah (a. s.) who said: “Should I tell you about the greatest form of fornication? It is when a woman commits adultery on the bed of her husband and becomes pregnant with the child of other man. Later on, this child is associated with her husband. The Almighty Allah will not speak to this woman on the Day of Judgment nor look at her with mercy. She will not be purified and get a severe chastisement.”

8. And from the previous chain from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah from Ibn Fadhal from Abdillah b. Bukayr who said: The narrator asked Imam Muhammad Baqir (a. s.), “What is meant by the saying of the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.): When a person commits fornication, the soul of faith is taken away from him?” Imam (a. s.) replied, “The soul separated from him is the same that is discussed in this verse: We granted them piety through this soul.”

1. Abu Huraira and Ibne Abbas said that the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) delivered a sermon in Medina before he passed away. This sermon was such that it caused the eyes of people to overflow. Their hearts began to beat fast. Their condition became terrible. Bilal was called to invite people to the mosque. The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) mounted the pulpit and asked the people to come forward. People came forward and sat near one another. Then the Holy Prophet asked them to come forward again. A man asked, “For whom are we leaving the space?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “Leave space for angels. When angels come, they do not sit in front or back of you. They sit by your left and right side.” The man asked, “Why do they sit by our left and right side? Are they more exalted or are we?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “You are more exalted.” Then the Holy Prophet asked that person to sit down and started his sermon. All praise be to Allah for we praise Him and seek help from Him only. We have faith only on Him. I swear that there is no Lord except Allah and there is no partner for him. Surely Muhammad is His servant and Messenger. We seek refuge in Allah from our inner evils and bad deeds. I seek refuge in Allah that if Allah guides someone, no one can deviate him and one who is misguided, none can be his guide.” “O people! There are thirty liars in this Ummah. First of them is from Sanaa and the other from Yamama.” “O people! One who swears that there is no god except Allah, with pure intention and without mixing any belief in it and meets Allah, he will certainly enter Paradise.” Ali (a. s.) stood up and asked him to explain the meaning of pure intention and not mixing anything. The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) explained, “It means that one should not be greedy about the world. He should not have gathered wealth from unlawful means and should not have his heart attached to the wealth. Some people talk about good deeds but their actions are like bad people. Hence one who does not have this characteristic in him and he says that there is no god except Allah, there is Paradise for him. Hell is for one who tries to accumulate wealth and does not care about the hereafter.” “One who befriends an unjust enemy or helps him, the Angel of Death descends with bad tidings that Allah’s curse be upon him and he will abide in Hell forever and surely this a very bad destination.” “One, who supports an unjust ruler for the sake of a favor, will accompany that ruler in Hell. One, who advises a ruler to do injustice, will accompany the ruler in Hamaan. He and his ruler will get the severest chastisement in Hell.” “If someone increases the greed and love of a worldly thing in any person, Allah will be severe with him and put him in the lowest level of Hell along with Qaroon.” “One who builds a large house for showoff, the Almighty Allah will put him below the seven layers of earth. Rings of fire will be put around his neck and he will be thrown into Hell.” The people asked, “O Messenger of Allah! How is the house of showoff made?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “It is by building a house more than one’s need or building a house for showing pride.” “One who oppresses the workers, Allah destroys his good deeds. He will make the fragrance of the breeze of Paradise prohibited for him while the fragrance of the breeze of Paradise is perceived from the distance traveled in five hundred years.” “One who usurps a single yard of his neighbor’s land, the Almighty Allah will turn that yard into a fire equal to that of seven layers of earth and put it around his neck and he will be thrown into Hell.” “One who purposely forgets the Holy Quran after memorizing it, will meet Allah thirsty and deprived on the Day of Judgment and Allah will make a snake overpower him for each forgotten verse.” “One who does not act on the Quran after learning it and the love of this world has more effect on him, is deserving of severe chastisement of Allah. He is like a Jew or a Christian who have forgotten Allah.” “One who commits a prohibited deed with a woman or with a child or a man, will smell worse than a corpse on the Day of Judgment. People will be troubled by his odor. Then the person will be thrown into Hell. None of his words will be heeded. None of his cries will be sympathized. None of his atonements will be accepted and all his good deeds will be destroyed. Then he will be thrown in the coffin having nails. He will be hit with thick iron rods which will cause all the nails to pierce his body. If a single drop of his sweat is kept on four hundred communities, all of them will die. He will face the severest punishment.” “One who commits fornication with a slave-girl or a woman other than a Jew, Christian, Zoroastrian, Muslim, Allah will open thirty thousand doors of Hell in his grave. Snakes, scorpions and flames will come out of them, which will burn him till the Day of Judgment. The foul odor coming out of his genitals will trouble people. People will relate him with this characteristic only till the Day of Judgment. Then he will be ordered to go to Hell. He will face severe chastisement there and people will be troubled by him. This is because the Almighty Allah has prohibited wrong and no one can be more honored than Him. He has prohibited wrong with His honor and has set the limits.” “One who peeps into the houses of neighbors and looks at the genitals of man or hair or any part of woman’s body, it is rightful for the Almighty Allah to keep him in Hell along with those hypocrites who used to be on lookout of bad things in people. The Almighty Allah will not take him away from this world till He has disgraced him and will display his genitals in public on the Day of Judgment.” “One who shows displeasure to Allah because of insufficient earnings, complains about it to someone else and does not remain patient, none of his good deeds will reach Allah. When he meets Allah, He will be angry with that person.” “One who becomes proud after wearing a dress, Allah will take his grave near Hell. His grave will remain near Hell till the time the earth and sky exist. Qaroon had also become proud after wearing a dress. The earth swallowed it and it remained inside the earth till the Day of Judgment.” “One who has married in a lawful manner with lawful wealth but intends to be proud, Allah will make that marriage a disgrace and nothing else. Allah will keep his grave near Hell as much as he had benefited from that woman and throw him at the distance of seventy years inside Hell.” “One who does injustice in giving Mahr (dower) to a woman, is like a fornicator for Allah. On the Day of Judgment, Allah will tell him: I had married this woman to you according to My promise but you broke it. Allah will Himself ask for her right. He will take away all the good deeds of that person. Then too the right of that woman will not be paid. The man will be ordered to be thrown into Hell. If a witness turns hostile, Allah will make him eat his own flesh on the Day of Judgment. He will enter Hell chewing his own tongue.” “One who has two wives and he does not do justice to anyone with regards to his wealth, will be gathered on the Day of Judgment thirsty and will be put in Hell. One who troubles his neighbor without any reason, the Almighty Allah will make even the fragrance of Paradise prohibited for him and his destination will be Hell. Beware, Allah will ask that person about the rights of his neighbor. A person who trespasses the rights of a neighbor is not from us.” “One who insults a Muslim because of his poverty, has dishonored the rights of Allah. He will remain under severe chastisement of Allah till he pleases that person and Allah will be his strong enemy.” “One who honors a poor Muslim, Allah will be pleased with him on the Day of Judgment. One who is presented with world and hereafter and he chooses the world and leaves the hereafter, when he meets Allah, he will have no good deed which can save him from Hell. One who accepts the hereafter and leaves this world, Allah will be pleased with him on the Day of Judgment.” “One who can commit a prohibited act with a woman but does not do so out of the fear of Allah, Allah makes the fire of Hell prohibited for him and grants him peace from a great terror. He will make that person enter Paradise. However if he commits that act, Allah will make Paradise prohibited for him and put him in Hell.” “One who earns unlawfully, Allah will not reward his deeds like charity, freeing slaves, Hajj and Umrah. He will punish him as much as the reward for those deeds. And if something is left after his death, it will be his luggage on the way to Hell.” “One who can earn unlawfully but does not do so out of the fear of Allah, is deserving of Allah’s love and mercy and will be ordered to enter Paradise. One who shakes hands with a non-Mahram woman, Allah will bring him on the Day of Judgment with his hands tied to the back of his neck and he will be put into Hell.” “One who jokes with a non-Mahram woman, will receive punishment for a thousand years for each sentence he spoke. One who takes a woman in his arms or kisses her or hugs her or tells her something that she gets ready for the prohibited act, both of them will be punished. However if all these things are done to a woman forcefully, the double punishment will be given to that man. A person who cheats a Muslim in trade and one who adulterates goods is not from us. He will be gathered along with Jews on the Day of Judgment because a Muslim cannot cheat people.” “One who does not help his neighbor at the time of need, will be deprived of Divine Mercy and Allah will leave him on his own. If Allah leaves someone on his own he gets destroyed and Allah does not accept any of his excuses. If a woman hurts her husband, her Salaat and other good deeds will not be accepted till she pleases him even if she has fasted for an age, offered Prayer in nights, freed slaves and spent in the way of Allah. She will be the first one to be thrown into Hell. If a man hurts his wife, the Almighty Allah will break his bones on the Day of Judgment and he will be overpowered by fire. He will be gathered with his hands tied to the back of his neck and put into Hell.” “One who thinks about cheating his Muslim brother, is involved in the displeasure of Allah during that time. Allah will remain displeased with him till he repents. If he dies in this condition, he does not die a Muslim. Beware, one who cheats Muslims is not from us [the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) repeated this sentence twice].” “One who holds a lash in his hand on the order of an unjust ruler, Allah will make that lash a snake whose length will be equal to seven thousand spans and will make that snake overpower him in Hell. He will live in Hell forever.” “One who backbites a Muslim, his fast and ablutions are void. If he dies in this condition, he will die considering lawful what Allah has prohibited.” “One who slanders, the Almighty Allah will make fire overpower him in his grave, which will burn him till the Day of Judgment. When he comes out of the grave, he will have a serpent overpowering him, which will bite unto his flesh till he enters Hell.” “One who controls his anger, forgives his brother and remains patient, Allah will reward him equal to that of a martyr.” “One who does injustice to a poor or considers him lowly with his pride, Allah will make him come on the Day of Judgment having size equal to that of an ant. Then he will be thrown into Hell.” “One who refuses to listen to the backbiting of a Muslim brother, the Almighty Allah will close one thousand doors of evil for him in this world and the hereafter. However, if he doesn’t stop and remains pleased, he will get punishment equal to that of backbiting.” “One who blames an innocent man or woman, Allah will destroy the deeds of that person. Seventy thousand angels will lash him from all sides. His flesh will be bitten by snakes and scorpions and, he will be ordered to be taken to Hell.” “One who drinks wine in the world, Allah will make him drink the poison of scorpions. The flesh of his face will fall in a utensil before he drinks that poison. His skin and flesh will be reduced to pieces when he starts drinking it. All the people will be troubled because of this. Then he will be thrown into Hell. Similarly a person who drinks, prepares, sells, buys, delivers, orders or earns from wine will get the same punishment.” “Beware, one who makes a Jew, Christian or a person of some other religion drink wine, his sin is equal to that of the person who drinks it. Beware, one who buys wine for someone else, Allah will not accept his Prayer, fasts, Hajj and Umrah till he repents and if he dies before repenting, it is rightful for Allah to make him drink Sadid of Hell for each gulp of wine. Beware, Allah has prohibited wine and especially one which is intoxicating.” “One who takes usury the Almighty Allah will fill his stomach with fire equal to the amount of usury. One who does business with that money, Allah will not accept any of his good deeds. He will face the curse of Allah and His angels till he has even a single penny of it left with him.” “One who is dishonest in other’s trust, does not return others belongings and dies in this condition, will die on any other religion except Islam. Allah will be angry when he meets Him and will order him to be put into Hell. He will live at the end of Hell forever.” “One, who gives false testimony for a Muslim a Zimmi or anyone else, will be hung by his tongue on the Day of Judgment and will remain at the lowest level along with the hypocrites.” “One who does not help his slave or servant at the time of his difficulty, Allah will also not reply to him on the Day of Judgment and will tell him to go to Hell.” “One who hurts his wife so much that she seeks to free herself after returning Mahr, Allah will also not be pleased with any other punishment except Hell for him. As Allah gets angry in the case of orphans, He gets angry in the case of a woman.” “One who talks bad about his brother or slanders about him in front of a ruler and the ruler does not take any action, all of his good deeds will be destroyed. However, if ruler hurts his brother, Allah will keep that person at the level in Hell where Haman is kept.” “One who recites the Holy Quran for showoff or to earn something, his face will have no flesh on the Day of Judgment. The Holy Quran will hit him with a pointed iron spear on his back. It will take him to Hell and those who are thrown into Hell are destroyed.” “One who learns the Holy Quran but does not follow it, he will be blind on the Day of Judgment. He will say: O Allah! I could see. Why did you make me blind? Allah will say: ‘When Our signs reached you, you forgot them. Today they have forgotten you;’ and he will be ordered to be thrown into Hell. One who knows that a thing is usurped and then too buys it, his sin is equal to that of the usurper.” “One who becomes a pimp, Allah will make Paradise prohibited for him and make Hell his destination. Hell is a large place. He will be punished by Allah till he dies.” “One who cheats his Muslim brother, Allah will take away abundance (Barakat) from his sustenance. His earnings will be destroyed and he will be left on his own.” “One who buys a thing knowing that it is stolen from somewhere, his sin is equal to that of the thief.” “A person who cheats a Muslim is not from us nor are we from him in this world and in the hereafter.” “Beware, do not relate the evils of a person after hearing bad about him for such a person will be punished for those evils which he has narrated. If someone relates the good deeds of a person to all, he will be rewarded for those good deeds.” “One who praises a woman and narrates her beauty in front of a man and if that man is misguided and commits a prohibited act with her, that person will not go away from this world till Allah has wreaked His anger on him. If Allah sends anger on a person, seven layers of earth and all of the seven heavens get angry with him. The sin of that person is same as that of the man who committed the prohibited act.” Someone asked, “O Messenger of Allah! What if they repent?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) replied, “The Almighty Allah will accept the repentance of that man and woman but will not forgive the person who described the beauty of that woman.” “One who looks at a woman with lust, Allah will put rods of fire in his eyes. He will remain in this state till the time Allah does the accounting of deeds of other people. Then Allah will order to put him into Hell.” “One who gives food to someone to showoff, the Almighty Allah will feed him Sadid of Hell. When it enters the stomach, it will turn into fire. He will remain in this state till Allah has done accounting of deeds of the people.” “One who commits adultery with a married woman, thick blood will come out of his genitals having quantity equal to the distance traveled in five hundred years. The people of Hell will suffer from the foul odor of both of them. Their punishment will be severest. Allah will also give severe chastisement to that married woman who looks into the eyes of a man other than her husband or a Mahram. All her deeds will be wasted when she does this. If she commits adultery on the bed of someone else, it is rightful for Allah to put her in Hell after punishing her in the grave.” “If a woman seeks divorce from her husband, Allah, angels, messengers and all people curse her. The angel of death comes down to give her news of Hell. On the Day of Judgment, she will be told to go to Hell along with other hellish people. Beware, Allah and His Messenger hate the person seeking divorce without genuine cause. They also hate the man who troubles his wife so much that she is forced to seek divorce.” “One who is made the Imam of congregation by a few people and if he performs Qirat, Ruku, prostration, Tashahud and Qiyam properly, he will get the reward of the entire congregation. However if such a person does not perform these acts properly, his Prayer will be rejected and he will not be able to bear the load of this rejected Salaat. He will be accounted as an unjust leader.” “One who does not want to correct his followers, will not become their leader by the order of Allah.” Amirul Momineen (a. s.) stood up and asked, “May my parents be sacrificed for you, O Messenger of Allah! What will be the condition of a leader who could not guide his followers nor had become leader by the order of Allah?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “He will follow those four persons whose punishment will be severest on the Day of Judgment i. e. his number will come after Shaitaan, Firon, a killer and an unjust ruler.” “One who does not give loan to a Muslim brother who is in need, Allah will make Paradise prohibited for him on the day when helpers will be rewarded. One who remains patient in spite of the bad nature of his wife, Allah will reward him with the patience of Prophet Ayyub (a. s.) according to patience he has shown during each day and night. That woman will be punished equal to the number of grains of sand in each day and night. If she dies before pleasing her husband, she will be put in the lowest level of Hell along with the hypocrites.” “If a woman does not agree with her husband, does not remain patient on what sustenance Allah has given, remains harsh to him and demands those things from him, which he cannot afford, till the time she does this Allah will not accept those deeds from her, which can save her from the fire of Hell and Allah will remain angry with her.” “A person who honors his brother is like one who honors Allah. What will Allah reward him? One who takes the responsibility of a community on his shoulders but does not fulfill it, will have to live in a pit of Hell for a thousand years for each day he had ruled over them. However if he had ruled according to Allah’s wish, Allah will make him free. If he had been unjust, Allah will throw him into Hell and it will take him seventy years to reach the bottom.” “One, who does not rule according to Allah’s orders, is like one who testifies falsely. He will be put in Hell and will be given the same punishment as that of a person who testifies falsely. One who double-talks and is double-faced in this world, will have two tongues and faces in the hereafter.” “One who comes forward to make peace among people, the angels will send salutations on him till he returns and he will get reward of the night of Qadr. One who creates a rift between two persons, will get same amount of punishment for it. Allah’s curse will fall on him till he enters Hell and his chastisement will be doubled.” “One who tries to make public the defects of his brother and exposes his secrets, Allah will expose his secrets as soon as he steps inside Hell.” “One who visits his relatives, Allah will grant him reward equal to a hundred martyrs. If he gifts something or helps them the Almighty Allah will grant him forty million rewards for each step taken and increase his position by forty levels and he will be as if he has worshipped Allah for a hundred years.” “One who creates a rift between two persons or breaks relations, Allah will be angry with him and curse him in this world and the hereafter. He will be punished for breaking relations. One who tries to get two believers married and they both get married, Allah will marry one thousand Hoorul Ein to him. Every Hoorul Ein will be inside a palace of pearls and rubies. He will be given the reward of worshipping at night for one year and fasting during day for each step he takes and for each sentence he speaks in arranging the marriage.” “One who plays a role in separating a husband and wife, Allah will be angry with him. He will be cursed in this world and the hereafter. It is rightful for Allah to put him in Hell for a thousand years. One who tries to create a rift between two people, will be cursed in the hereafter and he will hate to see his face.” “One who takes a visually handicapped man to the mosque, house or for some other work, Allah will grant him reward of freeing a slave for each step he has taken and angels will send salutations on him.” “One who does something for a visually handicapped person; Allah will save him from two calamities. He will save him from fire and hypocrisy. He will be immersed in Divine Mercy till he returns. One who takes care of a sick person for a day and night, Allah will resurrect him along with Prophet Ibrahim (a. s.) and he will pass over the Sirat Bridge like wind.” “One who tries to fulfill a wish of a sick person and fulfills it, will be purified of sins as if he has just come out of his mother’s womb.” One of the persons from Ansar asked, “What if the sick person is one of his relatives?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “He who fulfills the needs of his relatives will deserve a great reward. One who avoids his relatives and breaks relations, Allah will make reward prohibited for him on the day when helpers will be rewarded. He will not be able to come out of there. One who gives loan to a poor and takes back justly, the account of his bad deeds will be started once again. Allah will grant him a thousand Qintars for each dirham he had paid.” “One who solves the problem of a person in this world, Allah will look at him with mercy. He will enter Paradise because of this good deed. Allah will solve all his problems of this world and the hereafter.” “One who goes out to solve the differences between a husband and wife, Allah will grant him reward of one thousand martyrs in the way of Allah. He will get reward of worshipping at night and fasting during day for one year for each step he takes and each sentence he speaks. One who gives loan to his Muslim brother, will be given rewards equal to the weight of Mount Ohad, Sina and Razva for each dirham. If he does not force the person to repay his loan on time, he will pass from the Sirat Bridge before a twinkling of an eye. There will be no accounting of deeds or chastisement for him.” “If a Muslim brother relates his needs to a person and the latter does not give him a loan, Paradise will be made prohibited for him on the day when helpers will be rewarded. One who does not fulfill the wish of someone in spite of being capable of doing so, will be punished like Ashar.” Auf bin Malik stood up and asked, “O messenger of Allah! How much is the sin of Ashar?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “The sinners of Ashar are cursed by Allah and His angels every day and night. A person who is cursed by Allah cannot be helped by anyone. One who does good to someone and talks about it proudly in front of him, his good deed will be void. His efforts will go waste. Beware, the Almighty Allah has prohibited Paradise for someone who talks about one’s good deeds, is proud, slanders, drinks wine, talks much, eats much, has bad character and is disobedient.” “One who acts as a medium to provide charity to the poor, will get the reward of paying Sadaqah. If forty thousand people act as a means to provide charity to the poor, all of them will get separate and full reward for it. Beware there is no one nearer to Allah than one who has piety and one who does good to others.” “One who builds a mosque in this world, for each span of earth, Allah will reward him with a city made of gold, silver, pearls, rubies and emeralds. It will be as large as the distance covered in forty years. Each will have forty million palaces and every palace will have forty million houses and every house will have forty million rooms and every room will have forty thousand young boys and girls to serve him. It will have forty thousand dining tables, each table having forty thousand large trays, each tray having forty million types of cuisines. Allah will grant that person such a power that he is able to enjoy all the cuisines and women in one day.” “One who becomes a muezzin of a mosque and gives Azaan for Allah’s pleasure only, will get the reward of forty million prophets, forty million truthful ones and forty million martyrs. He will be able to give salvation to forty million communities, each having forty million people. He will have forty million cities in each Paradise and every palace will have forty million houses and every house will have forty million rooms and every room will have forty million beds each occupied by a Hoorul Ein married to him. Every room will be forty million times that of a room in this world. Every wife will have forty million young boys and girls at her service. Every room will have forty thousand dining tables each having forty thousand trays. Each tray will have forty million types of different cuisines. If all the Jinn and men become his guest, they will be accommodated easily in one small room. They will get food, wine, perfumes, clothes, fruits, gifts, jewelry and rare things in that room itself. The things present in that room will be enough for them. There will be no need to go to other rooms. When a muezzin says: Ash-hadu allaa ilaaha illallaah in Azaan, forty million angels surround him, send salutations on him and repent for him. He comes under the shade of Allah as he ends Azaan. His reward is noted down by forty million angels. After that it goes above to Allah.” “One who goes to a mosque, will get ten rewards for each step while going or returning home. His ten sins will be forgiven and his position will be increased by ten levels. One who tries to offer Salaat in congregation wherever he is, will pass by the Sirat Bridge swiftly.” “One who tries to offer Salaat in the first row of congregation and starts his Salaat along with the congregation and does not trouble any believer in Prayer the Almighty Allah will reward him like a muezzin. One who builds a shelter on a way for travelers, Allah will make him ride a huge mount made of pearls when he is resurrected. His face will be bright in front of the people of Paradise. He will accompany Prophet Ibrahim (a. s.) in the dome of Ibrahim. People will say: This is an angel whom no one had seen before. He will be able to make forty million people enter Paradise due to his intercession. One who puts forward his wish before his brother and he fulfills it, Allah will look at him with mercy and it is rightful for Allah not to punish him. However if someone helps his brother without being requested, Allah will grant him the reward of seventy martyrs who have fasted in the month of Ramadan for the nearness to Allah and who have kept their ears, eyes, genitals and other parts of their body away from what He prohibited. Allah keeps him so near that he can touch the knee of Prophet Ibrahim (a. s.).” “One who digs a well and endows to Muslims as water starts coming in it, will get the reward of those who offer Prayer after performing ablutions from its water. Also he will get the reward of freeing slaves equal in number to the hairs of every human, animal and bird. People equal to the number of stars will reach the Holy Cistern in the hereafter because of his intercession.” Someone asked what the Holy Cistern was. The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said thrice: “It is my cistern. One who digs a grave for a Muslim seeking reward from Allah, Allah will make Hell prohibited for him. He will grant him a house in Paradise. He will make him reach the cistern which has goblets equal to the number of stars. The length and breadth of that cistern is equal to the distance between Ila and Sanaa.” “One who gives Ghusl to a Muslim body being trustworthy, will get the reward of freeing a slave for each hair and his position will be elevated by a hundred levels.” Umar bin Khattab asked, “O Messenger of Allah! What is meant by being trustworthy?” The Holy Prophet answered, “He should cover the genitals of the dead body. If he does not do so, he will not get any reward and his defects will be exposed in this world and in the hereafter. If someone offers Prayer for a dead, Jibraeel and other seventy million angels send salutations on him. All his sins from beginning to end will be forgiven. One who is present when a dead is being buried, will get the reward of one Qirat for each step he takes from burial to his way back home. One Qiraat has weight of Mt. Ohad in Mizan (Balance). One who weeps due to the fear of Allah, each of his tear will be as heavy as Mt. Ohad in Mizan. He will get rivers in Paradise for each tear. These rivers will have heavenly cities and palaces on their banks, which no eye would have ever seen, no ear would have ever heard of and which no mind would have imagined.” “One who visits a sick, will get seventy million rewards for each step he takes till he returns home. Seventy million of his sins will be wiped out and his position will be raised seventy million levels for each step. Seventy million angels will be appointed to look after him in his grave and repent for him till the Day of Judgment.” “One who goes for the burial of a dead, will get a hundred million rewards for each step. A hundred million of his sins will be wiped off and his position will be elevated a hundred million levels for each step. If he offers Prayer of dead, a million angels will come at the time of his burial. They will repent for him till he is raised from the grave.” “One who goes for Hajj or Umrah, till the time he returns, will get a hundred million rewards for each step, a hundred million sins will be wiped off and his position will be raised a hundred million levels. Allah returns him a hundred times of each dirham and dinar he takes along on the journey. He gives him hundred times the reward of good deeds done on his journey. He will remain in the protection of Allah. If he dies, he will enter Paradise and if he returns alive, he will be successful, forgiven and come with his prayers accepted. Value his prayers for Allah does not reject his supplication. He will certainly intercede for a hundred thousand people on the Day of Judgment.” “If someone does good to the relatives of a person who has gone for Hajj or Umrah, his reward will not be less than the reward of that person. One who goes out for Jihad in the way of Allah, will be given seven hundred million rewards, seven hundred million of his sins will be forgiven and his position will be raised seven hundred million ranks for each step he takes till he returns home. He will be in Allah’s protection. If he dies, he will be considered a martyr. If he returns alive, all his sins will be forgiven and his supplications will be accepted. One who visits his brother will get the reward of freeing a million slaves for each step he takes till he returns home. His position will increase a million levels and a million sins will be wiped off. He will be given a million rewards.” Abu Huraira was asked, “Didn’t the Holy Prophet say: One who frees slaves, will be freed from Hell?” Abu Huraira said that I had asked about this to the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.). He replied, “Yes, and his ranks reach Allah at Divine throne. One who learns the Holy Quran for Allah’s pleasure and for understanding the religion, will get the reward of meeting the angels and all the messengers. One who learns the Holy Quran to showoff, to debate with fools, to compete with scholars and to earn this world from it, Allah will disperse his bones and his punishment will be severest in Hell. Allah will be so angry with him that He will give all types of punishments of Hell to him. One who learns the Holy Quran seeking reward from Allah, is humble and teaches it to other people, none of the people of Paradise will be rewarded like him. No one will have a position better than him in Paradise.” “Beware, knowledge is better than action, the standard of faith is piety. A scholar is one who practices what he has learnt even if it is very less. Do not underestimate any sin because a sin does not remain small if repeated again and again. Also no greater sin is greater than Istighfar (repentance). Allah will enquire about your each and every sin even if it is pointing out a defect in the dress of your brother.” “O servants of Allah! You will be resurrected on the same beliefs which you had while dying. Allah has created both Paradise and Hell. One who opts for Hell instead of Paradise, his wishes will never be fulfilled and a person who opts for Paradise is successful forever. He will be successful according to the following words of Allah: Then whoever is removed far away from the fire and is made to enter the garden, he indeed has attained the object.” “Beware, my Lord has ordered me that I fight with people till they say that there is no god except Allah. If they say so, I will guarantee the protection of their souls and wealth. However their rights and accounting is with Allah. Know that Allah Whose name is greatest has described each and everything which is loved. Similarly He has also described all those things, which are abominable. He has stopped people from this. So that those who are destroyed, know it before they do so and those who remain alive do so after knowing it. Know that the Almighty Allah does not do injustice and oppression. He does not forgive one who does injustice. He is sitting in His ambush to punish those who sin and reward those who do good deeds. One who does good will benefit from Him and one who does evil will face punishment from Him. Allah does not do injustice to His servants. O people! I have grown old and my bones have become weak. I have heard the news of the arrival of my death. My end is near. The desire to meet my Lord is increasing. I think that this is the last meeting with you. By the way, keep watching me till I am alive. And when I pass away, Allah is the only helper of each and every male and female believer. Was salaamu a’laikum wa rah’matullaahi wa barakaatuh.” Before the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) descended from the pulpit, Ansar (Helpers) ran to him and asked, “May Allah sacrifice us for you, O Messenger of Allah! May our parents be sacrificed for you! Who can bear this suffering? How will we live after today?” The Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) said, “May my parents be sacrificed for you! I have asked forgiveness from my Lord for you. He has said that the doors of repentance are open till the trumpet is blown.” Then the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) turned towards the people and said, “If someone repents a year before his death, his repentance will be accepted. If a year is more, one who repents a month before his death, his repentance will be accepted. If a month is more, one who repents one Friday before his death, his repentance will be accepted. If one Friday is more, one who repents a day before his death, his repentance will be accepted. If a day is more, one who repents an hour before his death, his repentance will be accepted. If that is more, one who repents till his last breath (he pointed towards his neck), his repentance will be accepted.” Then the Holy Prophet (s. a. w. s.) descended from the pulpit. This was the last time he addressed the people before passing away.
