MUTUAL RIGHTS OF THE BELIEVERS
The Noble Messenger (s.a.w.a.s.) said,
“The people will be resurrected
thirstier, hungrier, and more
naked than they lived. Allah
will give heavenly robes to
those who have given clothing to
believers, and feed heavenly
blessings to those who have fed
any believers, and will give
heavenly drinks to those who
have given any thing to drink.
(Ali ibne abi Hamze).
“Everything related to a
believer is respectable
including his dignity, his
wealth, and his life.”
The Infallible Imam Muhammad
al-Baqir (a.s.) said,
“The worth of feeding one of my
followers is more than feeding
one hundred thousands people.”
(Ali al-Miqdam). “A believer
should advise his believing
brothers.” (Abi Obaydeh al-Haz'zae)
“If a believer expresses his
hatred of any other religious
brother, they are no longer
friends. Whenever he tells his
brother he is his enemy, one of
them has become an infidel.”
(Abi Hamza al Somali)
”The closest thing to becoming
an infidel is to remember your
believing brother's faults with
the intention of blaming him in
the future.” (Zurareh)
The Infallible Imam J'far
al-Sadiq (a.s.)
said, “Whoever gives a scary
look to a believer will receive
a scary look from Allah on the
Resurrection Day.”
“Whoever visits an ill Muslim
will be submerged in the sea of
divine mercy, and whoever sits
with that ill man will be
accompanied by seventy thousand
angels on his way back home.
They will say, 'You have been
purified and Heaven will be
enjoyable for you.”
“If a believer is asked by
another believer to help fulfill
one of his vital needs , and he
refuses to do so although he is
able to directly or indirectly
fulfill his needs, he will be
resurrected with his hands tied
to his neck and has to wait
until Allah finishes the
reckoning of all His creatures
accounts.” (Safvan al-Jam'mal) “Deliver my greetings to my friends and assure them that I guarantee Heaven for all of them except for the following people: 1. alcoholic. 2. gamblers, 3. people who reject the believers, 4. people who are haughty with the believers, 5. people who block the believers' needs, 6. people who do not help fulfill the needs of a believer who asks them for help,
7. people who do not marry off
their daughter to a believer who
comes to propose to marry her.”
(Abdul Malik al-Nofy)
“Any believer who does not make
an effort to help fulfill his
religious brother's needs and
does not advise him has
committed treason against Allah
and His Prophet.” (Ibrahim ibn
Uthman)
“Cover up any act of stinginess
you observe from any of your
religious brothers.”
“O' Ishaq! Do you know that
whenever two believers meet each
other and shake hands, Allah
will send down two hundred
blessings on them. Ninety Nine
blessings are for the one who
like the other one more. And
whenever they hug each other,
Allah's Mercy will encompass
them”
“Do not be deceitful with
people, since you will lose all
your friends.” (Abi Baseer)
“Allah will humiliate you in
this world and in the Hereafter
if you humiliate your believing
brothers while you are able to
help them. The reward of helping
a believing brother is more than
that for fasting for fasting and
spiritual retreat to Makkah.”
(Ibrahim al-Somali)
“Love for your Muslim brother
the same things that you love
for yourself.”
“Whenever three believers get
together, it is not appropriate
for any two of them to whisper
in each other's ear.”
