My father narrated to us. He said: Sa`d b. `Abdullah narrated to us from Muhammad b. al-Husayn b. Abu’l Khattab from Muhammad b. Isma`il b. Bazi` from Salih b. `Uqbah from Bashir al-Dihan. He said:

I said to Abu `Abdillah : Sometimes I miss the Hajj, for I am on [the day of] `Arafa (practice of the pilgrims is that they halt at the `Arafa) near the grave of al-Husayn. He said: Well-done, O Bashir! Any believer who comes to the grave of al-Husayn , cognizant of his right on a day other than that of `Eid, twenty Hajj and twenty `Umra, approved and accepted, and twenty expeditions along with the sent Prophet or a Just Imam, are written down for him. And whoever comes on the day of `Eid, a hundred Hajj and a hundred `Umra and a hundred expeditions along with the sent Prophet or the Just Imam are written down for him. And whoever comes on the Day of `Arafa, cognizant of his right, a thousand Hajj and a thousand `Umra, approved, accepted, and a thousand expeditions along with the sent Prophet or the Just Imam are written down for him. He said: I said to him: And how will it be for me with the like of the mawqif (halting-spot, i.e. plains of `Arafat) (i.e. receive the same reward)? He said: So, he looked at me like the one infuriated. Then he said: O Bashir! Surely, when the believer comes on the day of `Arafa to the grave of al-Husayn and washes in the Euphrates, then heads for it (the shrine), Allah writes down for every step a Hajj, with its rituals and I do not know it except that he said: and expedition.
