12 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْقَمَّاطِ عَنْ يَسَارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ مَنْ كَانَ مُعْسِراً فَلَمْ يَتَهَيَّأْ لَهُ حِجَّةُ الْإِسْلَامِ فَلْيَأْتِ قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) وَ لْيُعَرِّفْ عِنْدَهُ- فَذَلِكَ يُجْزِيهِ عَنْ حِجَّةِ الْإِسْلَامِ أَمَا إِنِّي لَا أَقُولُ يُجْزِي ذَلِكَ عَنْ حِجَّةِ الْإِسْلَامِ إِلَّا لِلْمُعْسِرِ فَأَمَّا الْمُوسِرُ إِذَا كَانَ قَدْ حَجَّ حِجَّةَ الْإِسْلَامِ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَتَنَفَّلَ بِالْحَجِّ أَوِ الْعُمْرَةِ- وَ مَنَعَهُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شُغُلُ دُنْيَا أَوْ عَائِقٌ فَأَتَى قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) فِي يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ أَجْزَأَهُ ذَلِكَ عَنْ أَدَاءِ الْحَجِّ أَوِ الْعُمْرَةِ وَ ضَاعَفَ اللَّهُ لَهُ ذَلِكَ أَضْعَافاً مُضَاعَفَةً- قَالَ قُلْتُ كَمْ تَعْدِلُ حِجَّةً وَ كَمْ تَعْدِلُ عُمْرَةً قَالَ لَا يُحْصَى ذَلِكَ قَالَ قُلْتُ مِائَةً قَالَ وَ مَنْ يُحْصِي ذَلِكَ قُلْتُ ألف [أَلْفاً قَالَ وَ أَكْثَرَ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَ إِنْ تَعُدُّوا نِعْمَتَ اللّهِ لا تُحْصُوها- إِنَّ اللّهَ واسِعٌ عَلِيمٌ [كَرِيمٌ]
12. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā ibn ‘Ubayd, from Muḥammad ibn Sinān, from Abī Sa’īd Al-Qammāť, from Yasār, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq ) said: If an insolvent person does not find the means to perform Ḥajjatul Islām, then he should go to the grave of Ḥusain
and spend the Day of ‘Arafah next to his grave, for this will suffice as having performed Ḥajjatul Islām. Beware that I said this will suffice as performing Ḥajjatul Islām only for an insolvent person. If a wealthy person has already performed Ḥajjatul Islām and then decides to go for an additional Hajj or ‘Umrah, but misses it because he was hindered in some way or because he was preoccupied with the matters of this world, but goes to (the Ziyārah of) the grave of Ḥusain
on the Day of ‘Arafah, this will be sufficient as having performed that (additional) Hajj or ‘Umrah and Allāh will multiply the rewards of this act greatly for him. I asked, “How many Hajj and how many ‘Umrah will be registered for him?” Imam
replied, “It cannot be counted.” I asked, “(Is it) one hundred?” Imam
replied, “And who can count it?!” I asked, “One thousand?” Imam
replied, “And more.” Then the Imam
added, “If you count the bounties of Allāh, you will not be able to number them’ (16:18). ‘Verily Allāh is all-pervading, all-knowing” (2:115).
