15ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ وَابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ الْجَمَّالِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ مَا الْتَقَى مُؤْمِنَانِ قَطُّ إِلا كَانَ أَفْضَلُهُمَا أَشَدَّهُمَا حُبّاً لأخِيهِ.
15. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Ahmad ibn abu Nasr and ibn Faddal from Safwan al-Jammal from Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام who has said the following: “Of the two believers who meet each other, the more meritorious one is the one who loves his brethren more intensely.”
