42 - أدَبُ الإخاءِ

42. The Etiquette of Brotherhood

112.رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله : إذا آخى‏ أحَدُكُم رَجُلاً فَلْيَسألْهُ عَنِ اسمِهِ وَاسمِ أبيهِ وقَبيلَتِهِ ومَنزِلِهِ ؛ فَإنّهُ مِن واجِبِ الحَقِّ وصافِي الإخاءِ ، وإلّا فَهِيَ مَوَدَّةٌ حَمْقاءُ .¹

112.The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'When one of you takes a brother, he must ask him his name, his father's name, his tribe and his address. This is part of true brotherhood, otherwise it is a foolish amity.' ²

113.رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله : اِلْقَ أخاكَ بوجْهٍ مُنبسِطٍ .³

113.The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Meet your brother with a joyful face.' ⁴

114.بحار الأنوار عَن أنَس : كانَ رَسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله إذا فَقَدَ الرَّجُلَ مِن إخْوانِهِ ثَلاثَةَ أيّامٍ سَألَ عَنهُ ، فإنْ كانَ غائِباً دَعا لَهُ ، وإنْ كانَ شاهِداً زارَهُ ، وإنْ كانَ مَريضاً عادَهُ .⁵

114. It is narrated in Bihar al-Anwar: When the Prophet (SAWA) missed the company of any of his brothers for three days, he would ask about him. If he was absent, he would pray for him; and if he was in town, he would visit him; and if he was ill, he would go to see him.' ⁶
