Al-Kāfi - The Book - Garden (of Flowers) Chapter: About the words of Allah ‘...they give gald news to those who have not joined them…” (3:170) َحْبُوبٍ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ ٠َّدِ بْنِ النُّعْ٠َانِ عَنْ بُرَيْدٍ الْعِجْلِيِّ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ (عليه السلا٠) عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ يَسْتَبْشِرُونَ بِالَّذِينَ لَ٠ْ يَلْحَقُوا بِهِ٠ْ أَلَّا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِ٠ْ يَحْزَنُونَ قَالَ هُ٠ْ وَ اللَّهِ شِيعَتُنَا حِينَ صَارَتْ أَرْوَاحُهُ٠ْ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَ اسْتَقْبَلُوا الْكَرَا٠ِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَلِ٠ُوا وَ اسْتَيْقَنُوا أَنَّهُ٠ْ كَانُوا عَلَى الْحَقِّ وَ عَلَى دِينِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ اسْتَبْشَرُوا بِ٠ِنِينَ أَلَّا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِ٠146.

Ibn Mahboub, from Al-Haris Bin Muhammad Bin Al-No’man, from Bureyd Al-Ajaly who said: ‘I asked Abu Ja’far (asws) about the Statement of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic: “[3:170] and they rejoice for the sake of those who, (being left) behind them, have not yet joined them, that they shall have no fear, nor shall they grieve”. He (asws) said: ‘By Allah (azwj)!

These are our (asws) Shiites, when their souls will arrive in the Paradise, and they will be Welcomed honourably from Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic, they would come to know and be convinced that they were upon the ‘الْحَقِّ’ Just, and upon the Religion of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic, and they would receive the good news of the ones whom they had left behind from their brethren from the Believers. There would be no fear to come upon them, nor would they be in any grief’.
