is to say the relation of spirits is so strong that the complicationsof each body are transferred to the other( as it is narrated about some of Prophet's S. A. companions ).

This is not unlikely considering two introductions. First, the relation of spirit with body is so close that mentaldis comforts leave a deep effect in the body. Nowadays, psychiatrists believe that most of physical diseases do not haveany special physical cause, such as organ disorders or microbes, and are merely the effect of mental distresses.

Second, it is currently proved that transmission andexchange between two minds is possible even from remotedistances. In other words, two persons can create a mentalrelation with each other through a particular spirituala greement and or exercise without any physical means, andtransmit their thoughts to each other's brain. This is calledtelep athy.

So, it is possible for distresses of a person to be transmittedto his friend through mental relation, and then that particula rdistress will influence on his body, and make the similar orga npainful.

Be with the great majority because Allah's hand( ofprotection )is on keeping unity. You should beware of division
