Arabic text

9 - حدثنا أبي (رضي الله عنه)، قال: حدثني سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن محمد، عن الحسن بن محبوب، عن أبي جميلة، عن جابر، عن أبي جعفر الباقر (عليه السلام)، قال: إن ملكا من الملائكة مر برجل قائم على باب دار، فقال له الملك: يا عبد الله، ما يقيمك على باب هذه الدار؟ قال: أخ لي فيها، أردت أن اسلم عليه. فقال الملك: هل بينك وبينه رحم ماسة، أو نزعتك إليه حاجة؟ قال: فقال: لا، ما بيني وبينه قرابة، ولا نزعتني إليه حاجة إلا أخوة الاسلام وحرمته، وأنا أتعاهده واسلم عليه في الله رب العالمين. فقال الملك: إني رسول الله إليك، وهو يقرئك السلام ويقول: إنما إياي أردت، ولي تعاهدت، وقد أوجبت لك الجنة، واعفيتك من غضبي، وأجرتك من النار (4).

Translation

My father (ra) narrated to us. He said: Sa`d b. `Abdullah narrated to me from Ahmad b. Muhammad from al-Hasan b. Mahbub from Abi Jamila from Jabir from Abi Ja`far al-Baqir (as). He said: An angel from the angels passed by a man standing at the door to a house. So, the angel said to him: “O servant of Allah! What brought you to the door of this house?” He said: “I have a brother in it, and I want to greet him.” So, the angel said: “Is he a part of your immediate family, or do you need something from him?” He said: So, he said: “No, we are not related, nor do I need anything from him – only the brotherhood of Islam and his sanctity [as a believer]. I [only wish to] pledge myself to him and greet him in [the name of] Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.” So, the angel said: “I am a messenger of Allah to you. He recites the salaam to you and says: ‘It is only I that you wanted [to greet], and I that you wanted to pledge to, so I have made Paradise obligatory for you, and I have relieved you from My anger, and I have delivered you from the Fire.’”
