Note 1
(1) Regarding the saying: "Whoever looks at his brother with a look that frightens him," etc.: This hadith is mentioned in this chapter to indicate that merely causing fear incurs punishment on the Day of Resurrection, so how much more for greater forms of oppression? It implies that whoever looks at his brother with mercy and compassion, God will look at him with care on the Day of Resurrection, as stated in al-Marqah.

(١) قوله: من نظر إلى أخيه نظرة يخيفه إلخ: إيراد هذ الحديث في هذا الباب للإشارة إلى أن مجرد الإخافة يترتب عليه العقوبة يوم القيامة، فكيف بما فوقها من أنواع المظلمة، ويؤخذ من مفهومه: أن من نظر بعين الرحمة والشفقة إلى أخيه نظر الله إليه بعين العناية يوم القيامة. كذا في (المرقاة).
