The Chapter of Condolences and Grief During Calamities, Visiting Graves, Lamentation and Mourning Gatherings

وَ رَوَى حَفْصُ بْنُ اَلْبَخْتَرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «أَنَّ اَلْكَافِرَ يَزُورُ أَهْلَهُ فَيَرَى مَا يَكْرَهُهُ وَ يُسْتَرُ عَنْهُ مَا يُحِبُّ.
Hafs ibn al-Bakhtari narrated from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام: "Indeed, the disbeliever visits their family and sees what displeases them, while what they would like is concealed from them (by the accompanying angels)."
