Chapter on What to Say Upon Entering a City or Village
رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ أَبِي مُحَمَّدٍ اَلْوَابِشِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «مَا مِنْ مُؤْمِنٍ يَمُوتُ فِي أَرْضِ غُرْبَةٍ تَغِيبُ عَنْهُ فِيهَا بَوَاكِيهِ إِلاَّ بَكَتْهُ بِقَاعُ اَلْأَرْضِ اَلَّتِي كَانَ يَعْبُدُ اَللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَلَيْهَا وَ بَكَتْهُ أَثْوَابُهُ وَ بَكَتْهُ أَبْوَابُ اَلسَّمَاءِ اَلَّتِي كَانَتْ يَصْعَدُ فِيهَا عَمَلُهُ وَ بَكَاهُ اَلْمَلَكَانِ اَلْمُوَكَّلاَنِ بِهِ».
Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Abu Muhammad al-Wabishi, from Imam Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said: "No believer dies in a land of exile, away from his loved ones, except that the patches of earth on which he worshipped Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Mighty and Glorious, weep for him. His garments weep for him, the gates of the heavens through which his deeds ascended weep for him, and the two angels assigned to him weep for him."
