17 حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَرْقِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَعْدَانَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ يَخْرُجُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى الْقُبُورِ فَيُسَلِّمُ وَ يَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْقُبُورِ السَّلَامُ عَلَى مَنْ كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ أَنْتُمْ لَنَا فَرَطٌ وَ نَحْنُ لَكُمْ تَبَعٌ- وَ إِنَّا بِكُمْ لَاحِقُونَ وَ إِنّا لِلّهِ وَ إِنّا إِلَيْهِ راجِعُونَ يَا أَهْلَ الْقُبُورِ بَعْدَ سُكْنَى الْقُصُورِ يَا أَهْلَ الْقُبُورِ بَعْدَ النِّعْمَةِ وَ السُّرُورِ صِرْتُمْ إِلَى الْقُبُورِ يَا أَهْلَ الْقُبُورِ كَيْفَ وَجَدْتُمْ طَعْمَ الْمَوْتِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ وَيْلٌ لِمَنْ صَارَ إِلَى النَّارِ ثُمَّ يُهْرِقُ دَمْعَتَهُ وَ يَنْصَرِفُ
17. Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan ibn Walīd narrated to me from someone whose name he mentioned, from Aḥmad ibn Abī ‘Abdillāh Al-Barqi, from his father, from Sa’dān ibn Muslim, from ‘Ali ibn Abī Ḥamzah, from Abī Basīr, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq 
) said: When you go to the graves, say Salām and recite (the following): Salām upon the people of the graves. Salām upon the believers and the Muslims in the graves. You have preceded us and we shall follow you and (soon) we will join you. Verily we are Allāh’s and to Him we shall return. O those who are in graves after having lived in palaces! O those who are in graves after having enjoyed the blessings and the pleasures! O people of the graves! Now that you are in the graves, how did you find the taste of death?!!! Then say, “Woe unto those who have gone to Hell.” And then cry and leave.
