 أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِیمَ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِیِّ عَنِ السَّکُونِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَیَغْفِرُ لِلْحَاجِّ وَ لِأَهْلِ بَیْتِ الْحَاجِّ وَ لِعَشِیرَهِ الْحَاجِّ وَ لِمَنْ یَسْتَغْفِرُ لَهُ الْحَاجُّ بَقِیَّهَ ذِی الْحِجَّهِ وَ الْمُحَرَّمَ وَ صَفَرَ وَ شَهْرَ رَبِیعٍ الْأَوَّلِ وَ عشر [عَشْراً] مِنْ رَبِیعٍ الْآخِرِ.

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Ali b. Ibrahim from his father from al-Nawfali from al-Sakuni from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said: “Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, forgives the sins committed during the month of Zilhajj, Muharram, Safar, Rabiul Awwal and first ten days of Rabius Sani by a pilgrim, his family, his relatives and by those for whom he seeks forgiveness.”

 أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِیمَ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِیَادٍ الْآدَمِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی الْحَسَنِ عَلِیِّ بْنِ أَبِی حَمْزَهَ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ أَبِی بَصِیرٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع مَنْ حَجَّ یُرِیدُ بِهِ اللَّهَ لَا یُرِیدُ بِهِ رِیَاءً وَ لَا سُمْعَهً غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ الْبَتَّهَ.

2.  Imam  Ja’far  Sadiq  (a.s.)  says,  “Allah  forgives  one  who performs Hajj for Allah’s pleasure without the intention of showing it off to the people.”

 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ أَبِی الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ أَسْبَاطٍ رَفَعَهُ إِلَی أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ کَانَ عَلِیُّ بْنُ الْحُسَیْنِ ع یَقُولُ حُجُّوا وَ اعْتَمِرُوا تَصِحَّ أَجْسَامُکُمْ وَ تَتَّسِعْ أَرْزَاقُکُمْ وَ یَنْصَلِحْ إِیمَانُکُمْ وَ تُکْفَوْا مَؤُنَهَ عِیَالِکُمْ.

3.  Imam  Ja’far  Sadiq  (a.s.)  narrates  that  Imam  Zainul Abideen (a.s.) said, “Perform Hajj and Umrah so that your bodies   remain   healthy,   earnings   increase,   your   faith strengthens  and  the  expenses  of  people  and  your  family members are met through it.”

 وَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ ره عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارِ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ مَعْرُوفٍ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ مَهْزِیَارَ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِیسَی عَنْ یَحْیَی بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَدْ وَطَّنْتُ نَفْسِی عَلَی لُزُومِ الْحَجِّ کُلَّ عَامٍ بِنَفْسِی أَوْ بِرَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَیْتِی بِمَالِی فَقَالَ وَ قَدْ عَزَمْتَ عَلَی ذَلِکَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَإِنْ فَعَلْتَ ذَلِکَ فَأَیْقِنْ بِکَثْرَهِ الْمَالِ.

4. And it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan (rah) from Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from al-Abbas b. Ma’ruf from Ali b. Mahziyar from Hamad b. Isa from Yahya b. Umar from Ishaq b. Ammar who said: “If that is so, you should remain assured that you will get excessive wealth. Glad tiding to you for excessive wealth.”

 أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَرْقِیُّ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ جَمِیلٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الصَّادِقِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِنَّ الْحَاجَّ إِذَا أَخَذَ فِی جَهَازِهِ لَمْ یَرْفَعْ شَیْئاً وَ لَمْ یَضَعْهُ إِلَّا کَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ عَشْرَ حَسَنَاتٍ وَ مَحَا عَنْهُ عَشْرَ سَیِّئَاتٍ وَ رَفَعَ لَهُ عَشْرَ دَرَجَاتٍ فَإِذَا رَکِبَ بَعِیرَهُ لَمْ یَرْفَعْ خُفّاً وَ لَمْ یَضَعْهُ إِلَّا کَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ مِثْلَ ذَلِکَ وَ إِذَا طَافَ بِالْبَیْتِ خَرَجَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ وَ إِذَا سَعَی بَیْنَ الصَّفَا وَ الْمَرْوَهِ خَرَجَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ فَإِذَا وَقَفَ بِعَرَفَاتٍ خَرَجَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ وَ إِذَا وَقَفَ بِالْمَشْعَرِ خَرَجَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ وَ إِذَا رَمَی الْجِمَارَ خَرَجَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ فَعَدَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص کَذَا وَ کَذَا مَوْطِناً کُلُّهَا تُخْرِجُهُ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ فَأَنَّی لَکَ أَنْ تَبْلُغَ مَا بَلَغَ الْحَاجُّ.

5.  Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) narrates from his predecessors that the  Holy  Prophet  (s.a.w.s.)  said,  “Whenever  a  pilgrim intends to go for a Hajj, Allah writes ten rewards for him, wipes his ten sins and increases his position by ten levels even before  he  has  bought a  single  thing  for  his  journey. When he intends to board the vehicle, Allah gives him the above mentioned reward even before he has set his foot on it. When he performs the circumambulation of the House of Allah  his  sins  are  wiped  off.  When  he  performs  Saee between  Safa  and  Marwa,  he  becomes  pure  of  his  sins. When he halts at Arafah, his sins vanish. When he camps in Mashar he comes out of his sins. When he performs stoning at  Jimaraat,  all  his  sins  are  wiped  off.  Similarly,  the  Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) narrated all the acts of Hajj and said that all these acts wipe the sins of a person. Then he said, “How can you reach the position of a Hajj pilgrim?”

 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ الْحُسَیْنِ السَّعْدَآبَادِیُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ یَزِیدَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع یَقُولُ الْحَاجُّ إِذَا دَخَلَ مَکَّهَ وَکَّلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِهِ مَلَکَیْنِ یَحْفَظَانِ عَلَیْهِ طَوَافَهُ وَ صَلَاتَهُ وَ سَعْیَهُ فَإِذَا وَقَفَ بِعَرَفَهَ ضَرَبَا عَلَی مَنْکِبِهِ الْأَیْمَنِ ثُمَّ قَالا أَمَّا مَا مَضَی فَقَدْ کُفِیتَهُ فَانْظُرْ کَیْفَ تَکُونُ فِیمَا یَسْتَقْبِلُ.

6.  The narrator says that he heard Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) say, “When a Hajj pilgrim enters Mecca, Allah allots two angels for protecting him during circumambulation, Salaat and Saee. When he halts in Arafah, he is patted on his right shoulder and told, ‘Your past sins are forgiven. See how you spend your future life’.”

 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِیِّ بْنِ مَاجِیلَوَیْهِ عَنْ عَمِّهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِی الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ أَبِی أَیُّوبَ عَنْ أَبِی حَمْزَهَ الثُّمَالِیِ قَالَ رَجُلٌ لِعَلِیِّ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ ع تَرَکْتَ الْجِهَادَ وَ خُشُونَتَهُ وَ لَزِمْتَ الْحَجَّ وَ لِینَتَهُ قَالَ وَ کَانَ مُتَّکِئاً فَجَلَسَ فَقَالَ وَیْحَکَ مَا بَلَغَکَ مَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فِی حِجَّهِ الْوَدَاعِ إِنَّهُ لَمَّا هَمَّتِ الشَّمْسُ أَنْ تَغِیبَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص یَا بِلَالُ قُلْ لِلنَّاسِ فَلْیُنْصِتُوا فَلَمَّا أَنْصَتُوا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِنَّ رَبَّکُمْ تَطَوَّلَ عَلَیْکُمْ فِی هَذَا الْیَوْمِ فَغَفَرَ لِمُحْسِنِکُمْ وَ شَفَّعَ مُحْسِنَکُمْ فِی مُسِیئِکُمْ فَأَفِیضُوا مَغْفُوراً لَکُمْ وَ ضَمِنَ لِأَهْلِ التَّبِعَاتِ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ الرِّضَا.

7.  A person told Imam Zainul Abideen (a.s.), “You did not perform Jihad as it was difficult and performed Hajj as it is easy.” Imam was resting his back against the wall. He sat up straight and said, “Woe be on you. The saying of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) at the time of the Last Hajj did not reach you. Surely, the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) conveyed to people through  Bilal  at  sunset  to  keep  quiet.  When  people  fell silent, the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said, “The Almighty Allah has made this day blessed for you. He has forgiven righteous among you and accepted their intercession for those who sinned. Go away for you are forgiven and you have gained the  pleasure  of  Allah  for  those  among  you  who  were sinners.”

 [حَدَّثَنِی حَمْزَهُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ره قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِیمَ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ یَحْیَی وَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِیَهَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: لَمَّا أَفَاضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص تَلَقَّاهُ أَعْرَابِیٌّ فِی أَفْطَحَ فَقَالَ یَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّی خَرَجْتُ أُرِیدُ الْحَجَّ فَعَاقَنِی عَائِقٌ وَ أَنَا رَجُلٌ مَلِیٌّ کَثِیرُ الْمَالِ فَمُرْنِی مَا أَصْنَعُ فِی مَالِی مَا أَبْلُغُ مَا بَلَغَ الْحَاجُّ قَالَ فَالْتَفَتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِلَی أَبِی قُبَیْسٍ فَقَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ أَبَا قُبَیْسٍ لَکَ زِنَهَ ذَهَبَهٍ حَمْرَاءَ أَنْفَقْتَهُ فِی سَبِیلِ اللَّهِ مَا بَلَغْتَ مَا بَلَغَ الْحَاجُّ.

8. [it was narrated to me by Hamzah b. Muhammad (rah) who said I was informed by Ali b. Ibrahim from his father from Safwan b. Yahya and Muhammad b. Abi ’Umayr from Muawiyah b. Ammar from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said: “O Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.s.)! I have come to perform Hajj but I am not able to do so because of some problem. I have wealth; tell me something, which I can do and gain the reward of performing Hajj.” The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) pointed at Mount Abu Qubais and replied, “If you have a quantity of red gold equal to Mount Abu Qubais and you spend it in the way of Allah then too you won’t get the reward of Hajj.”

 وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع الْحَاجُّ یَصْدُرُونَ عَلَی ثَلَاثِ أَصْنَافٍ صِنْفٌ یُعْتَقُ مِنَ النَّارِ وَ صِنْفٌ یَخْرُجُ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ کَهَیْئَهِ یَوْمَ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ وَ صِنْفٌ یُحْفَظُ فِی أَهْلِهِ وَ مَالِهِ فَذَاکَ أَدْنَی مَا یَرْجِعُ بِهِ الْحَاجُّ.

9.  Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) says, “The people who return from Hajj are of three types – some are freed from the fire of Hell, some become pure of their sins like they were on the day their mothers gave them birth and some protect their family and wealth. These are minimum benefits for a Hajj pilgrim.”

 أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْحِمْیَرِیُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْأَشْعَثِ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ یَزِیدَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع یَقُولُ الْحَجُّ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ عِتْقِ عَشْرِ رَقَبَاتٍ حَتَّی عَدَّ سَبْعِینَ رَقَبَهً وَ رَکْعَتَا الطَّوَافِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ عِتْقِ رَقَبَهٍ.

10.  The narrator says that he heard Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) say, “The reward of performing Hajj is more than freeing ten slaves.”  Imam  (a.s.)  kept  on  counting  till  he  said  that  the reward of the acts of Hajj is more than freeing seventy slaves and  said  that  the  reward  of  circumambulation  and  a  two rakat prayer are equal to freeing a slave.”

 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ الْحُسَیْنِ السَّعْدَآبَادِیُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَرْقِیِّ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِیَهَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: إن الله [لِلَّهِ] تَبَارَکَ وَ تَعَالَی حَوْلَ الْکَعْبَهِ عِشْرُونَ وَ مِائَهُ رَحْمَهٍ مِنْهَا سِتُّونَ لِلطَّائِفِینَ وَ أَرْبَعُونَ لِلْمُصَلِّینَ وَ عِشْرُونَ لِلنَّاظِرِینَ.

11. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Musa b. al-Mutawakil who said it was narrated to me by Ali b. al-Hussain al-Sa’dabadi from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah al-Barqi from Ibn Abi ’Umayr from Muawiyah b. Ammar from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said: “Allah, the Blessed and the High, has positioned one hundred twenty bounties around Mecca. Out of that sixty are for those who perform circumambulation, forty for those who offer Salaat and twenty for the spectators.”

 وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِی بَشِیرٍ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِی الْحَسَنِ ع قَالَ: دَخَلَ عَلَیْهِ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَ قَدِمْتَ حَاجّاً قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ تَدْرِی مَا لِلْحَاجِّ مِنَ الثَّوَابِ قُلْتُ لَا أَدْرِی جُعِلْتُ فِدَاکَ قَالَ مَنْ قَدِمَ حَاجّاً حَتَّی إِذَا دَخَلَ مَکَّهَ دَخَلَ مُتَوَاضِعاً فَإِذَا دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ الْحَرَامَ قَصَّرَ خُطَاهُ مَخَافَهَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَی فَطَافَ بِالْبَیْتِ طَوَافاً وَ صَلَّی رَکْعَتَیْنِ کَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ سَبْعِینَ أَلْفَ حَسَنَهٍ وَ حَطَّ عَنْهُ سَبْعِینَ أَلْفَ سَیِّئَهٍ وَ رَفَعَ لَهُ سَبْعِینَ أَلْفَ دَرَجَهٍ وَ شَفَّعَهُ فِی سَبْعِینَ أَلْفَ حَاجَهٍ وَ حُسِبَتْ لَهُ عِتْقَ سَبْعِینَ أَلْفَ رَقَبَهٍ قِیمَهُ کُلِّ رَقَبَهٍ عَشَرَهُ آلَافِ دِرْهَمٍ.

12. And from the previous chain from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah from Ibn Abi Basheer from Mansur from Ishaq b. Ammar from Muhammad b. Muslim from Abi al-Hassan (a.s.) who said: “Every pilgrim should enter Mecca for Hajj with extreme humility. When he enters Masjidul Haraam, he should take small steps out of the fear of Allah. He should perform circumambulation of the Holy Kaaba and offer two rakat Salaat. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime would note seventy thousand rewards for him, wipe his seventy thousand sins, increase his position seventy thousand levels, fulfill his seventy thousand wishes and grant him the reward of freeing seventy thousand slaves each costing ten thousand dirhams.”

 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَهْلُ بْنُ زِیَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِیلَ عَنْ سَعْدَانَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع یَا إِسْحَاقُ مَنْ طَافَ بِهَذَا الْبَیْتِ طَوَافاً وَاحِداً کَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ أَلْفَ حَسَنَهٍ وَ مَحَا عَنْهُ أَلْفَ سَیِّئَهٍ وَ رَفَعَ لَهُ أَلْفَ دَرَجَهٍ وَ غَرَسَ لَهُ أَلْفَ شَجَرَهٍ فِی الْجَنَّهِ وَ کَتَبَ لَهُ ثَوَابَ عِتْقِ أَلْفِ نَسَمَهٍ حَتَّی إِذَا وَصَلَ إِلَی الْمُلْتَزَمِ فَتَحَ اللَّهُ لَهُ ثَمَانِیَهَ أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّهِ یُقَالُ لَهُ ادْخُلْ مِنْ أَیِّهَا شِئْتَ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاکَ هَذَا کُلُّهُ لِمَنْ طَافَ قَالَ نَعَمْ أَ فَلَا أُخْبِرُکَ بِمَا هُوَ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ هَذَا قُلْتُ بَلَی قَالَ مَنْ قَضَی لِأَخِیهِ الْمُؤْمِنِ حَاجَهً کَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ طَوَافاً حَتَّی بَلَغَ عَشْراً.

13. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Musa b. al-Mutawakil who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Ja’far who said it was narrated to me by Sahl b. Ziyad from Muhammad b. Ismail from Sa’dan b. Muslim from Ishaq b. Ammar who said: “To one who fulfils a wish of a believer, Allah gives reward of Tawaaf, Tawaaf, Tawaaf…(he repeated it ten times).”

 حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ عِمْرَانَ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنْ أَبِی حَمْزَهَ عَنْ أَبِی الْحَسَنِ مُوسَی بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: الْحَجُّ جِهَادُ الضُّعَفَاءِ وَ هُمْ شِیعَتُنَا.

Yazid from Abi Hamzah from Abi al-Hassan Musa b. Ja’far (a.s.) who said: “Hajj is a Jihad for our weak Shias.”

 وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنْ سَیْفِ بْنِ عَمِیرَهَ عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع مَا یَصْنَعُ اللَّهُ بِالْحَاجِّ قَالَ مَغْفُورٌ وَ اللَّهِ لَهُمْ لَا أَسْتَثْنِی فِیهِ.

15. And from the previous chain from al-Hussain b. Yazid from Sayf b. ’Umayra from Mansur b. Hazim who said: The narrator asked Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.), “What will Allah do to pilgrims like us?” “He will forgive all without any exception.”

 وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنْ صَنْدَلٍ الْخَادِمِ عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ خَارِجَهَ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: الْحَجُّ حَجَّانِ حَجٌّ لِلَّهِ وَ حَجٌّ لِلنَّاسِ فَمَنْ حَجَّ لِلَّهِ کَانَ ثَوَابُهُ عَلَی اللَّهِ الْجَنَّهَ وَ مَنْ حَجَّ لِلنَّاسِ کَانَ ثَوَابُهُ عَلَی النَّاسِ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَهِ.

One who performs Hajj for Allah would be rewarded by Him and He would give him Paradise on the Day of Judgment. One who performs Hajj for people should seek reward from them.”

 وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ وَضَّاحٍ عَنْ سَیْفٍ التَّمَّارِ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ یَقُولُ مَنْ حَجَّ یُرِیدُ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَا یُرِیدُ بِهِ رِیَاءً وَ لَا سُمْعَهً غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ الْبَتَّهَ.
