8. ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā, from Muḥammad ibn Ismā’īl, from Sāliḥ ibn ‘Uqbah, from Yazīd ibn ‘Abdil Malik, who said: I was with Abī ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام) when a group of people who were riding on donkeys passed by. Imam عليه السلام asked me, “Where are they going?” I replied, “To the graves of the martyrs (of Uḥud).” Imam عليه السلام asked, “What prevents them from going to the Ziyārah of the lonely (abandoned) Martyr?” One of the people who was from Iraq asked, “Is going to his Ziyārah obligatory?” Imam عليه السلام replied, “His Ziyārah is better than performing Hajj and ‘Umrah, and another Hajj and ‘Umrah, and another Hajj and ‘Umrah, and…” Yazīd ibn ‘Abdil Malik added: Imam عليه السلام mentioned twenty purified and accepted Hajj and ‘Umrah. And I swear to Allāh that I did not leave until a man came to the Imam عليه السلام and said, “I have gone to Hajj nineteen times. Please pray for me so that Allāh sustains me with the twentieth time.” Imam عليه السلام asked, “Have you ever gone to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain عليه السلام?” The man replied, “No.” Imam عليه السلام said, “Verily going to his Ziyārah is better than twenty Hajj.”
