8. Abul ‘Abbās Al-Kūfi narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain, from Safwān, from Walīd ibn Ḥassān, from Ibn Abī Ya’fūr, who said: I said to Abī ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام), “My yearning for seeing you has made me endure the difficulties of traveling to you.” Imam عليه السلام replied, “Do not complain (about this) to your Lord! Why do you not go to the one to whom you have more obligation than you have to me?!” Hearing that there was someone to whom I have more obligation than I have toward him was more difficult for me to handle than hearing him say, “Do not complain (about this) to your Lord.” So I asked, “Toward whom do I have more obligation than I have toward you?” Imam عليه السلام replied, “Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali عليه السلام. Why do you not go to Ḥusain عليه السلام and invoke Allāh next to his grave and complain to Allāh about your needs?!”
