And the Almighty Allah says: Write for him a reward equal to one of them.
And the Almighty Allah says: Write for him a reward equal to one of them.”[^5] Explanation: Allamah Majlisi says: That which His Eminence has said: ‘One who sits with them could not be unfortunate’ means that through their Barakat he will not become hopeless which is the last stage of being unfortunate. Or it may imply that their companionship is effective in their neighbor, thus as a result of it he has become eligible for rewards and prosperity.
It is mentioned in Biharul Anwar quoting from Uyun Akhbaar Reza through his own chain of narrators that Imam Ali Reza (as) said: “One who sits in a gathering where our affair is being revived, his heart will not die on the day hearts die.”[^6] I say: Like this is the companionship of the visitors of the grave of our master, His Eminence, Abi Abdillah al-Husain (as) and to be with them.
Fourth : Among the points concluded from the tradition is that: Sitting in a gathering of remembrance causes purification of conscience, from the aspect that angels seek closeness to the people of those gatherings. May the Almighty Allah give us Tawfeeq to be among such people.
The circle of remembrance implies: A gathering where faithful people conglomerate to recite the Holy Qur’an, to pray for the Master of the Time (aj), to mention the names and qualities of the Almighty Allah, to salute our Holy Prophet (S) – as mentioned in traditions that: Their remembrance is remembrance of Allah – or that their tragedies may be recounted or it may be a discourse of their exalted positions.
Also included in such gatherings are: All the gatherings of Dua , meetings to discuss and debate on religious laws and aspects, but it should not be just for the sake of argumentation. We could have if we wanted narrated traditions on this matter but it would take us away from the topic of our discussion, therefore this much is sufficient.
