Ḥusayn b. Saʿīd al-Ahwāzī · The Rights of a Believer on a Fellow Believer.
95 - وعن أبي عبد الله (ع) قال واللهِ، ما عُبدَ اللهُ بشئ أفضلَ من أداء حقّ المؤمن. إنّ المؤمنَ أفضلُ حقّاً مِن الكعبةِ. وقال: إنَّ المؤمنَ أخو المؤمنِ؛ عينُه ودليلُه، فلا يخونه ولا يخذُله. ومِن حقّ المُسلم على المُسلم أن لا يشبعَ ويجوع أخوه ولا يروى ويعطش أخوه ولا يلبسَ ويعرى أخوه. وما أعظمَ حقّ المسلم على أخيه المسلم! وقال: أحبِب لأخيكَ المُسلمِ ما تحِبّ لنَفسكَ، وإذا احتَجتَ فَسَلْهُ، وإذا سألك فأعطِه، ولا تمله خيراً ولا يمله لك، كُن له ظهيراً فإنّه لك ظهيرٌ، إذا غاب فاحفَظْه في غَيبته، وإنْ شهِدَ زُرهُ وأَجلِلهُ وأكرِمْه، فإنّه منك وأنت منه، وإن كان عاتباً فلا تفارِقْه حتىّ تَسلّ سخيمتَه، وإنْ أصابه خيرٌ فاحمدِ الله (جلّ جلاله)، وإن ابتُليَ فأعطِه، وتحَمَّل عنه وأعِنهُ.
95. It has been reported that Abu 'Abd Allah (a.s) said: By Allah (I swear), never has Allah been worshipped with anything better than fulfilling the rights of a believer. A believer has more rights than the Ka'bah. And he said: “A believer is the brother of the other believer; his eyes and his guide. He neither cheats him nor deserts him.4 And of the rights of a Muslim on another Muslim is that he should not eat his fill while his brother is hungry, he should not drink water while his brother is thirsty and should not dress himself while his brother has no clothes. How great the right of a Muslim on his Muslim brother is! The Imam (a.s) also said: “Love for your Muslim brother what you love for yourself. If you are in need, ask him; and when he asks you, give him. Do not tire doing good to him as he does not tire for you. Be a support to him for he is a support to you. When he is away, safeguard his interests in his absence; and when he is present, visit him, show him respect and honor him, for he is from you and you are from him. If he is angry with you, do not leave him until you have removed his resentment. If good befalls him, thank Allah; and if he is afflicted, compensate him, relieve him of it and help him.
