Charity for Descendents of al-Hashim and the People of Their Household (Servants) and Compensation to Them

9ـ وَعَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ الله (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) إِنِّي شَافِعٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ لأَرْبَعَةِ أَصْنَافٍ وَلَوْ جَاءُوا بِذُنُوبِ أَهْلِ الدُّنْيَا رَجُلٌ نَصَرَ ذُرِّيَّتِي وَرَجُلٌ بَذَلَ مَالَهُ لِذُرِّيَّتِي عِنْدَ الْمَضِيقِ وَرَجُلٌ أَحَبَّ ذُرِّيَّتِي بِاللِّسَانِ وَبِالْقَلْبِ وَرَجُلٌ يَسْعَى فِي حَوَائِجِ ذُرِّيَّتِي إِذَا طُرِدُوا أَوْ شُرِّدُوا.
9. It is narrated from him (narrator of previous Hadith) from his father from certain individuals of our people, from Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام, who said: "The Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم has said, “On the Day of Judgment I will intercede on behalf of four kinds of people, even though they may come with the sins of the people of the world. (Of such people is) A man who has supported my offspring, one who has spent his property for my offspring in difficult times, a man who loves my offspring by his tongue and heart, and a man who strives hard to meet the needs of my offspring when they are driven away or expelled.’”
