2ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُعَمَّرِ بْنِ خَلادٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ إِنَّ لله عِبَاداً فِي الأرْضِ يَسْعَوْنَ فِي حَوَائِجِ النَّاسِ هُمُ الآمِنُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَمَنْ أَدْخَلَ عَلَى مُؤْمِنٍ سُرُوراً فَرَّحَ الله قَلْبَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ.

Published English translation

2. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Mu’ammar ibn al-Khallad who has said the following: “I heard abu al-Hassan (a.s.) saying, ‘There are servants of Allah on earth who endeavor to help people, these (helping ones) will be secure and safe on the Day of Judgment. Whoever sends joy to the heart of a believer, on the Day of Judgment, Allah will fill his heart with joy.’”

Publisher content rights, translator attribution and structural checks, with independent publisher-page spot checks—not scholarly authentication or printed-edition collation.

Muʿjam coverage, where present, is only the supplied excerpt, not the complete work.
