Al-Kāfi|Volume 2|Book 1|Chapter 85
3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ عَنْ مِسْمَعٍ أَبِي سَيَّارٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ مَنْ نَفَّسَ عَنْ مُؤْمِنٍ كُرْبَةً نَفَّسَ الله عَنْهُ كُرَبَ الآخِرَةِ وَخَرَجَ مِنْ قَبْرِهِ وَهُوَ ثَلِجُ الْفُؤَادِ وَمَنْ أَطْعَمَهُ مِنْ جُوعٍ أَطْعَمَهُ الله مِنْ ثِمَارِ الْجَنَّةِ وَمَنْ سَقَاهُ شَرْبَةً سَقَاهُ الله مِنَ الرَّحِيقِ الْمَخْتُومِ.
3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Husayn ibn Nu’Aim from Musmi’ abu Sayyar who has said the following: “I heard Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام saying, ‘For one who provides relief for his brother (in belief), Allah provides him relief in hardship in the life hereafter. He will come out of his grave with a comfortable heart. Whoever satisfies his (a believers’s) hunger Allah will feed him from the fruits of paradise. One who provides drink for him Allah will quench his (the helper’s) thirst with the sealed wine of paradise.’”
