Return forgiven and your rewards will be given (to you) by Allāh, your Lord, and by Muḥammad (s.a.a.w.), your Prophet.

Verily the souls of the prophets (a.s.), including the five ULUL ‘AZM Messengers, ask permission from Allāh (on that day) to go to his Ziyārah and they will be granted permission. We asked, “Who are the five Ulul ‘Azm (prophets)?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “Nūḥ, Ibrāhīm, Mūsā, ‘Isā (a.s.), and Muḥammad (s.a.a.w.).” We asked, “What does Ulul ‘Azm mean?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “They (are the prophets who) were sent to the east and the west of the earth and to (all of) Jinn and mankind.” The above Ḥadīth has also been narrated to me through the following chain: My father and all of my scholars, from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali Al-Zaytūni, and from others, from Aḥmad ibn Hilāl, from Muḥammad ibn Abī ‘Umayr, from Ḥammād ibn ‘Uthmān, from Abī Basīr, from Abī ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)).

8. Sālim ibn ‘Abdil Raḥmān narrated that: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) said: Allāh will dedicate two angels to those who spend the night of the fifteenth of Sha’bān in Karbalā and who do the following: Recite (the chapter of) “Qul Huwa Allāh” one thousand times, seek forgiveness from Allāh one thousand times, praise Allāh one thousand times, and then establish four Rak’ah of Salāt by reciting “Āyatul Kursī” one thousand times in each Rak’ah (after reciting Chapter Al-Ḥamd). The two angels will protect them from any harm and from the evil of every Shayťān and every ruler. They will only register their good deeds and no bad deeds will be registered for them. The two angels will (continuously) seek forgiveness for them as long as they are with them.

Allāh will forgive all of the past and future sins of the believers who go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain (a.s.) on the night of the fifteenth of Sha’bān and they will be told, “Go toward (committing) good deeds.” I said, “All of this (will be registered) for those who go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain (a.s.) on the fifteenth of Sha’bān?!” Imam (a.s.) replied, “O Yūnus! If I tell people about that which will be given to those who go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain (a.s.) on this night, they would travel riding on wood (placed on the back of saddleless camels) to go to him.”

Allāh will register the reward of one thousand accepted Hajj and one thousand purified ‘Umrah for those who go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain (a.s.) on the Day of ‘Arafah. Those who go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain (a.s.) on the Day of ‘Āshūrā, it is as if they have gone to the Ziyārah of Allāh on top of His Throne.
