From near, they hear the salutations in the places associated with their traces."

Imam (as) replied: "You have done well, O Bashir. Any believer who visits the grave of Husayn (as) knowing his right, on a day other than Eid, will have twenty accepted Hajj, twenty accepted Umrah, and twenty battles with a divinely sent prophet or a just Imam recorded for them. And whoever visits him on the day of Eid will have one thousand accepted Hajj, one thousand accepted Umrah, and one thousand battles with a divinely sent prophet or a just Imam recorded for them." I said to him: "And how can this compare to the station of Arafah?" Imam looked at me with a displeased expression and then said: "O Bashir, when a believer comes to the grave of Husayn (as) on the Day of Arafah, knowing his right, performs the ritual bath in the Euphrates, and then goes to him, Allah (swt), the Mighty and Exalted, will record for him with every step a Hajj with all its rites." And I do not recall him except saying: "and an Umrah as well."

Hadith.3171 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "Indeed, Allah (swt), Blessed and Exalted, begins by looking at the visitors of the grave of Imam Hussain ibn Ali (as) on the eve of Arafah." It was asked: "Does He look at them before looking at the people at the [Arafah] gathering?" Imam (as) replied: "Yes." It was then asked: "How is that?" Imam (as) said: "Because among those [at Arafah] are illegitimate children, and among these [visitors of Husayn's grave], there are no illegitimate children."

3172 - وَ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : «مَنْ زَارَ قَبْرَ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ جُعِلَ ذُنُوبُهُ جِسْراً عَلَى بَابِ دَارِهِ ثُمَّ عَبَرَهَا كَمَا يُخَلِّفُ أَحَدُكُمُ اَلْجِسْرَ وَرَاءَهُ إِذَا عَبَرَهُ ».

3173 - وَ رَوَى عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ : «وَكَّلَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِالْحُسَيْنِ صَلَوَاتُ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَيْهِ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ شُعْثاً غُبْراً وَ يَدْعُونَ لِمَنْ زَارَهُ وَ يَقُولُونَ يَا رَبِّ هَؤُلاَءِ زُوَّارُ اَلْحُسَيْنِ اِفْعَلْ بِهِمْ وَ اِفْعَلْ بِهِمْ.

Hadith.3173 - Ali ibn Abi Hamzah narrated from Abu Basir, from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) who said: "Allah (swt), the Mighty and Exalted, has appointed seventy thousand angels to be with Hussain ibn Ali (as). They send blessings upon him every day, disheveled and dusty, and they pray for those who visit him. They say, 'O Lord (azj), these are the visitors of Hussain ibn Ali (as). Treat them with kindness and grant them Your blessings.'"

3174 - وَ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : «مَنْ أَتَى قَبْرَ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَارِفاً بِحَقِّهِ كَتَبَهُ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِي أَعْلَى عِلِّيِّينَ ».

Hadith.3176 - Imam Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim (as) said: "The least reward for the visitor of Abu Abdullah (Imam Hussain ibn Ali (as)) at the banks of the Euphrates, if they recognize his right, sanctity, and authority, is that their past and future sins will be forgiven."

I said: "May I be your ransom, what does it mean to recognize his right?" Imam (as) replied: "To know that he is an Imam whose obedience is divinely mandated, a stranger, and a martyr. Whoever visits him, recognizing his right, Allah (swt), the Mighty and Exalted, will grant them the reward of seventy martyrs who were martyred before the Messenger of Allah (swt), peace be upon him and his family, in truth."

Hadith.3191 - Al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Faddal narrated from Abu al-Hasan Ali ibn Musa al-Ridha, peace be upon him: A man from Khurasan said to him: "O son of the Messenger of Allah (swt), I saw the Messenger of Allah (swt), peace be upon him and his family, in a dream, as if he were saying to me, ‘How will you be when a part of me is buried in your land, entrusted to your care, and my star is concealed in your soil?’" Imam Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha (as) replied: "I am the one who will be buried in your land. I am a part of your Prophet, I am the trust, and I am the star. Be aware that whoever visits me, recognizing the right that Allah (swt), the Mighty and Exalted, has made obligatory for me and my obedience, I and my forefathers will intercede for them on the Day of Judgment. And whoever has us as their intercessors will be saved, even if they have burdens equal to the sins of the two weighty creations (humans and jinn). Indeed, my father narrated to me from my grandfather, from his father (as) that the Messenger of Allah (swt), peace be upon him and his family, said: ‘Whoever sees me in their dream has truly seen me, for Satan cannot assume my form, nor the form of any of my successors, nor the form of any of their Shia. A truthful vision is one part of seventy parts of prophethood.’"

Hadith.3192 - It is narrated from Abu al-Salt Abd al-Salam ibn Salih al-Harawi, who said: I heard Imam Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha (as) say: "By Allah (swt), there is none among us except that they are killed and martyred." He was asked: "Who will kill you, O son of the Messenger of Allah (swt)?" Imam (as) replied: "The worst of Allah’s (swt) creation in my time will kill me with poison, then bury me in a constrained house and a land of estrangement. Behold, whoever visits me in my estrangement, Allah (swt), the Mighty and Exalted, will write for them the reward of one hundred thousand martyrs, one hundred thousand truthful ones, one hundred thousand pilgrims and those performing Umrah, and one hundred thousand fighters in the path of Allah (swt). They will be resurrected in our group and placed in the highest ranks of Paradise as our companions."

Hadith.3193 - Al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Faddal narrated from Imam Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha (as) that he said: "Indeed, there is a spot in Khurasan where a time will come when it will become a place frequented by the angels." Imam (as) continued: "A group will constantly descend from the heavens and a group will ascend, until the Trumpet is blown." Imam was asked: "O son of the Messenger of Allah (swt), which spot is this?" Imam (as) replied: "It is in the land of Tus. By Allah (swt), it is a garden from the gardens of Paradise. Whoever visits me in that spot will be as if they have visited the Messenger of Allah (swt), peace be upon him and his family. Allah (swt), Blessed and Exalted, will write for them the reward of one thousand accepted Hajj and one thousand accepted Umrah. I and my forefathers will be their intercessors on the Day of Judgment."

3194 - وَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ : «سَتُدْفَنُ بَضْعَةٌ مِنِّي بِأَرْضِ خُرَاسَانَ لاَ يَزُورُهَا مُؤْمِنٌ إِلاَّ أَوْجَبَ اَللَّهُ لَهُ، اَلْجَنَّةَ وَ حَرَّمَ جَسَدَهُ عَلَى اَلنَّارِ ».

Hadith.3194 - The Messenger of Allah (swt), peace be upon him and his family, said: "A part of me will be buried in the land of Khurasan. No believer will visit it except that Allah (swt) will make Paradise obligatory for them and will forbid their body from the Fire."
