Ameer ul momenin (AS) has reported on the authority of the Holy Prophet (SAW):  An angel saw a man standing at the door of a house whose master was not at home.   The angel said to him: Why have you come here?  The man said: I have a brother in faith whom I wish to see.   The angel said: Has any kind of relationship or need brought you here?  The man said: There is no closer relationship between us than Islam.  In the meantime I do not want anything from him but I wish to visit him for the pleasure of God.   The angel said: I am the messenger of God to you bringing the good tidings that God has sent His greetings to you and says: Is this visit for My sake?  Are you expecting a reward from Me with your deed?  I entitle you to paradise, keeping you away from My wrath and delivered you from the Fire of Hell.” Reference : Oddatud Daee lov
