Arabic text

232 / 16 - حدثنا أبي (رحمه الله)، قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، قال: حدثنا يعقوب بن يزيد، قال: حدثني بعض أصحابنا، عن زكريا بن يحيى، عن معاوية بن عمار، عن أبي جعفر، قال: إن العباد إذا ناموا خرجت أرواحهم إلى السماء، فما رأت الروح في السماء فهو الحق، وما رأت في الهواء فهو الاضغاث، ألا وإن الارواح جنود مجندة فما تعارف منها ائتلف، وما تناكر منها إختلف، فإذا كانت الروح في السماء تعارفت وتباغضت، فإذا تعارفت في السماء تعارفت في الارض، وإذا تباغضت في السماء تباغضت في الارض (2).

Translation

My father (rh) narrated to us. He said: Sa`d b. `Abdullah narrated to us. He said: Ya`qub b. Yazid narrated to us. He said: One of our companions narrated to me from Zakariyya b. Yahya from Mu`awiyah b. `Ammar from Abu Ja`far. He said: When the servants sleep, their spirits exit towards the heaven. So, what the spirit sees in the heaven, is true. And what it sees in the atmosphere, it is far from reality. Now surely the spirits are enlisted soldiers [of an army]. Then whichever of them gets acquainted with the other, it unites [with the other] and whichever of them rejects the other, it diverges [from the other]. So, when the spirit is in the heaven, it gets acquainted [with another] and it loathes [another, mutually]. And when they are acquainted in the heaven, they are acquainted on Earth and when they loathe each other in the heaven, they loathe each other on earth.
