1041. A BELIEVER'S RIGHT TO INTERCESSION DEPENDS ON THE EXTENT OF HIS DEEDS

3301.رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله : في المؤمنينَ مَن يَشفَعُ مِثلَ رَبِيعَةَ ومُضَرَ ، وأقَلُّ المُؤمنينَ شَفاعَةً مَن يَشفَعُ لِثَلاثِينَ إنساناً .¹

3301.The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'There are people from among the believers who have the right to intercession like Rabia and Mudar. A believer has the right to intercede on behalf of at least thirty people.' ²

3302.الإمامُ الباقرُ عليه السلام : يَشفَعُ الرَّجُلُ في القَبيلَةِ ، ويَشفَعُ الرَّجُلُ لِأهلِ البَيتِ ، ويَشفَعُ الرجُلُ لِلرَّجُلَينِ على‏ قَدرِ عَمَلِهِ ، فذلكَ المَقامُ المَحمودُ .³

3302.Imam al-Baqir (AS) said, 'A man intercedes on behalf of his tribe, or for his family, or even just for two other people, depending on the extent of his deeds, for that is the Glorious Station.' ⁴
