11 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ره عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبَانٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ جَرَّاحٍ الْمَدَائِنِيِّ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) كَيْفَ التَّسْلِيمُ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْقُبُورِ قَالَ تَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَى أَهْلِ الدِّيَارِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ رَحِمَ اللَّهُ الْمُسْتَقْدِمِينَ مِنْكُمْ وَ الْمُسْتَأْخِرِينَ وَ إِنَّا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ بِكُمْ لَاحِقُونَ وَ رَوَاهُ الْبَرْقِيُّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ جَرَّاحٍ الْمَدَائِنِيِّ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) وَ ذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ

11. My father narrated to me from Ḥusain ibn Ḥasan ibn Abān, from Ḥusain ibn Sa’īd, from Naďr ibn Suwayd, from Qāsim ibn Sulaymān, from Jarrāḥ Al-Madā`ini, who said: I asked Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s)), “How should one say Salām to the people of the graves?” Imam (a.s) replied: Recite (the following): Salām upon the people of the graves from among the believers and the Muslims. May Allāh’s Mercy be upon those of you who died long ago and those of you who died recently. We shall join you In-Shā`allāh. The above Ḥadīth has also been narrated through the following chain: (Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad) Al-Barqi, from his father, from Naďr ibn Suwayd, from Qāsim ibn Sulaymān, from Jarrāḥ Al-Madā`ini, from Abī ‘Abdillāh (a.s).
