Ḥadīth 1

1 حَدَّثَنِي الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْمَعْزَاءِ عَنْ عَنْبَسَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ وَكَّلَ اللَّهُ بِقَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ (ع) سَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ يَعْبُدُونَ اللَّهَ عِنْدَهُ الصَّلَاةُ الْوَاحِدَةُ مِنْ صَلَاةِ أَحَدِهِمْ تَعْدِلُ أَلْفَ صَلَاةٍ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْآدَمِيِّينَ يَكُونُ ثَوَابُ صَلَاتِهِمْ لِزُوَّارِ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ (ع) وَ عَلَى قَاتِلِهِ لَعْنَةُ اللّهِ وَ الْمَلائِكَةِ وَ النّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ أَبَدَ الْآبِدِينَ

1. Ḥasan ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā narrated to me from his father, from Ḥasan ibn Maḥbūb, from Abil Maghrā, from ‘Anbasah, who said: I heard Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) say: Allāh has dedicated seventy thousand angels to the grave of Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali (a.s.) who worship Allah next to him. Each of their prayers is equal to one thousand prayers of a human being, and the reward for their prayers is registered for those who go to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali (a.s.) – may Allāh’s curse, the curse of the angels, and the curse of all of the people be upon those who killed him for all eternity.

Ḥadīth 2

2 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي (رحمه الله) عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ وَكَّلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى بِقَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) سَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ- شُعْثاً غُبْراً يَبْكُونَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ يُصَلُّونَ عِنْدَهُ الصَّلَاةُ الْوَاحِدَةُ مِنْ صَلَاةِ أَحَدِهِمْ- تَعْدِلُ أَلْفَ صَلَاةٍ مِنْ صَلَاةِ الْآدَمِيِّينَ يَكُونُ ثَوَابُ صَلَاتِهِمْ وَ أَجْرُ ذَلِكَ لِمَنْ زَارَ قَبْرَهُ ع

2. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā, from his father, from Sayf ibn ‘Amīrah, from Bakr ibn Muḥammad Al-Azdi, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) said: Allāh, the Exalted, has dedicated seventy thousand angels to the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.). They are disheveled and covered with dust. They cry over Ḥusain (a.s.) and establish prayers next to his grave (and will continue to do so) until the Day of Judgment. Each of their prayers is equal to one thousand prayers of a human being, and the reward for their prayers is registered for those who go to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.).
