Chapter on the Reward of Maintaining Relations with the Imams as
وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «مَنْ لَمْ يَقْدِرْ عَلَى صِلَتِنَا فَلْيَصِلْ صَالِحِي شِيعَتِنَا يُكْتَبْ لَهُ ثَوَابُ صِلَتِنَا وَ مَنْ لَمْ يَقْدِرْ عَلَى زِيَارَتِنَا فَلْيَزُرْ صَالِحِي مَوَالِينَا يُكْتَبْ لَهُ ثَوَابُ زِيَارَتِنَا».
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "Whoever is unable to support us should support the righteous among our Shia; it will be written for him as the reward of supporting us. And whoever is unable to visit us should visit the righteous among our followers; it will be written for him as the reward of visiting us."
