Al-Husayn Bin Muhammad Al-Ashary, from Moalla Bin Muhammad, from Al-Hassan Bin Ali Al-Washa, from Muhammad Bin Al-Fazeyl, from Abu Hamza who said: ‘I heard Abu Ja’far (asws) saying: ‘For every Believer is a Protector and an Informer (Sa’ib)’. I said, ‘And what is the Protector, and what is the Informer, O Abu Ja’far (asws)?’ He (asws) said: ‘The Protector from Allah (azwj) Blessed and High, Protecting from Al-Wilayah by which the Believer is protected wherever he may be.

And as for the Informer, so it is the good news of Muhammad (saww) which Allah (azwj) Blessed and High Gives to the Believer wherever he may be whatever situation he may be in’. يخرجه - Shaykh Baqir al-Behbudi (Sahih al-Kafi) ضعيف - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (16/62))
