14. Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan ibn Aḥmad ibn Walīd narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan Al-Saffār, from ‘Abbās ibn Ma’rūf, from ‘Abdillāh ibn ‘Abdil Raḥmān Al-Asam, from Ḥusain, from Al-Ḥalabi, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq ) said: When Ḥusain
was killed, our family in Madīnah heard a caller cry out, “Today the afflictions have descended on this nation. You shall not see any pleasure until your Qā`im
rises and pleases you by killing your enemies and avenging one (Ḥusain
) by (killing) many.” They were frightened after hearing this call and they said that something must have happened of which they were unaware. After some time, they heard the news of the killing of Ḥusain
, and when they counted the (number of) days, they discovered that (he was killed) on the same night that they had heard the caller. I said, “May I sacrifice myself for you! How long will you (the Ahlul Bayt
) and we (the Shia) remain under these (circumstances of) intense fear and killing?!” Imam
replied, “(This situation will continue) until seventy (periods of) relief take place in different intervals and until the time of seventy comes. Then the flags will approach one after another at the time of seventy and they will look like organized units. Those who see that time will see that which will please them.” Imam
added: When Ḥusain
was killed, someone came to the camp (of the enemies) and screamed and rebuked them. He said, “How can I not scream when the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ is standing and looking at the earth and at your party. I am afraid that he will supplicate to Allāh against the people of earth and I will be destroyed as one of them!!!” So the soldiers said to one another, “This is a man who has lost his mind.” However the TAWWĀBŪN said, “By Allāh!!! What did we do to ourselves?!!! We killed the Master of the Youth of Paradise
for the son of Sumayyah.” Then they rose against Ubaydillāh ibn Ziyād and that which happened to them happened. I asked, “May I sacrifice myself for you! Who was the one who screamed (at the army)?” Imam
replied, “We do not believe that he was anyone but Jabra`īl. Verily if he had been given permission, he would have screamed at them in such a way that their souls would have left their bodies and would have entered Hell (immediately). However, they were given respite to increase their sins and they shall have a painful chastisement.” I asked, “May I sacrifice myself for you! What do you say about someone who has the ability to go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain
but does not?” Imam
replied: I say that he has disowned the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and disowned us. He has belittled a matter that is obligatory on him. Verily Allāh will look after the needs of those who go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain
and He will take care of every matter that is important to them in this life. Verily going to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain
increases the sustenance of the slaves (of Allāh) and they will be recompensed for the money that they spend in the Ziyārah. Verily fifty years of sin will be forgiven for them and they will return to their families having every sin and mistake erased from their book (of deeds). If they die during their Ziyārah, the angels will descend and perform their ablution (Ghusl). The doors of Paradise will be opened for them and its fragrance will surround them until the day they are resurrected. If they do not (die during their Ziyārah), the door from which their sustenance descends will be opened and they will be recompensed with ten thousand Dirhams for every Dirham they spent during their Ziyārah and their recompense will be kept safely for them. Therefore, when they are resurrected, they will be told, “You have ten thousand Dirhams for every Dirham you spent and Allāh (has postponed your recompense and) has kept it safely for you with Himself.”
