18. My father said: it was narrated to us by Abdillah b. Ja’far al-Himyari who said it was narrated to us by Muhammad b. al-Hussain from Muhammad b. Ismail b. Bazee’ from Abi Ismail al-Sarraj from Yahya b. Mu’ammar al-’Attar from Abi Basir from Abi Ja’far who said:

“Four thousand angels are appointed at the grave of Imam Husain with their hair covered in mud and in a distressed state. They will mourn Imam Husain till the Day of Judgment. They welcome whoever comes for the Ziyarat and that person does not return until they accompany him. He does not fall ill but that they come to treat him. He does not die but that they attend his funeral prayer.”
