8. Ḥukaym ibn Dāwūd narrated to me from Salamah ibn Khaťťāb, from ‘Ali ibn Muḥammad, from some of his companions, from Sulaymān ibn Ḥafs Al-Marwazi, who said: The man (Imam Hādi ) said: Recite (the following) next to the grave of Ḥusain : Salām to you, O Abā ‘Abdillāh. Salām to you, O Allāh’s Decisive Proof in His land and His witness over His creation. Salām to you, O son of the Messenger of Allāh. Salām to you, O son of ‘Ali, the one with whom Allāh is pleased. Salām to you, O son of Fāťimah Al-Zahrā. I testify that you established prayers, gave charity, enjoined good, forbade evil, and fought in the way of Allāh until that which is certain (death) came to you. May Allāh’s blessing be upon you in your life and after your death. Then place your right cheek on the grave and recite (the following): I testify that you had insight with your Lord. I have come to you admitting to my sins. Therefore, intercede for me with your Lord, O son of the Messenger of Allāh. Then mention the Imams one after another (by their names) and say, “I testify that they are Allāh’s Decisive Proofs.” Then recite (the following): Be my witness with your Lord and register a contract for me (which states) that I came to you to renew the covenant. Verily you are the witness.
