1ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ أَبِي الْحَلاَّلِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ مَا مِنْ نَبِيٍّ وَلا وَصِيِّ نَبِيٍّ يَبْقَى فِي الأَرْضِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ثَلاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ حَتَّى تُرْفَعَ رُوحُهُ وَعَظْمُهُ وَلَحْمُهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَإِنَّمَا تُؤْتَى مَوَاضِعُ آثَارِهِمْ وَيُبَلِّغُونَهُمْ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ السَّلامَ وَيَسْمَعُونَهُمْ فِي مَوَاضِعِ آثَارِهِمْ مِنْ قَرِيبٍ.

1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Ziyad ibn abu al-Hallal who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that no one of the prophets and the executors of the will of the prophets remain on earth for more than three days, within which time his Ruh (spirit), bones and flesh are taken to the heaven. People come only to the places where their marks are left. They convey and express their al-Salam from distant places and they hear them nearby in the places where their marks are left.”

2ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ مُوسَى عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْوَشَّاءِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الرِّضَا (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) يَقُولُ إِنَّ لِكُلِّ إِمَامٍ عَهْداً فِي عُنُقِ أَوْلِيَائِهِ وَشِيعَتِهِ وَإِنَّ مِنْ تَمَامِ الْوَفَاءِ بِالْعَهْدِ وَحُسْنِ الأَدَاءِ زِيَارَةَ قُبُورِهِمْ فَمَنْ زَارَهُمْ رَغْبَةً فِي زِيَارَتِهِمْ وَتَصْدِيقاً بِمَا رَغِبُوا فِيهِ كَانَ أَئِمَّتُهُمْ شُفَعَاءَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ.

2. Abu Ali al-Ash'ari narrated from Abdullah ibn Musa, from al-Hasan ibn Ali al-Washsha', who said that he heard Imam al-Ridha (as) say: "Indeed, every Imam has a covenant upon his supporters and followers. And among the complete fulfillment of the covenant and good performance is the visitation of their graves. So whoever visits them out of desire for visiting them and in affirmation of what they desired will have their Imams as their intercessors on the Day of Resurrection."

3ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ أَبِي هَاشِمٍ الْجَعْفَرِيِّ قَالَ بَعَثَ إِلَيَّ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي مَرَضِهِ وَإِلَى مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَمْزَةَ فَسَبَقَنِي إِلَيْهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ وَأَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدٌ مَا زَالَ يَقُولُ ابْعَثُوا إِلَى الْحَيْرِ ابْعَثُوا إِلَى الْحَيْرِ فَقُلْتُ لِمُحَمَّدٍ أَ لا قُلْتَ لَهُ أَنَا أَذْهَبُ إِلَى الْحَيْرِ ثُمَّ دَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَقُلْتُ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ أَنَا أَذْهَبُ إِلَى الْحَيْرِ فَقَالَ انْظُرُوا فِي ذَاكَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي إِنَّ مُحَمَّداً لَيْسَ لَهُ سِرٌّ مِنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ وَأَنَا أَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَسْمَعَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ بِلالٍ فَقَالَ مَا كَانَ يَصْنَعُ بِالْحَيْرِ وَهُوَ الْحَيْرُ فَقَدِمْتُ الْعَسْكَرَ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ لِي اجْلِسْ حِينَ أَرَدْتُ الْقِيَامَ فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُهُ أَنِسَ بِي ذَكَرْتُ لَهُ قَوْلَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ بِلالٍ فَقَالَ لِي أَ لا قُلْتَ لَهُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ الله (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) كَانَ يَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ وَيُقَبِّلُ الْحَجَرَ وَحُرْمَةُ النَّبِيِّ وَالْمُؤْمِنِ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ حُرْمَةِ الْبَيْتِ وَأَمَرَهُ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ يَقِفَ بِعَرَفَةَ وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ مَوَاطِنُ يُحِبُّ الله أَنْ يُذْكَرَ فِيهَا فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ يُدْعَى الله لِي حَيْثُ يُحِبُّ الله أَنْ يُدْعَى فِيهَا وَذَكَرَ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَلَمْ أَحْفَظْ عَنْهُ قَالَ إِنَّمَا هَذِهِ مَوَاضِعُ يُحِبُّ الله أَنْ يُتَعَبَّدَ لَهُ فِيهَا فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ يُدْعَى لِي حَيْثُ يُحِبُّ الله أَنْ يُعْبَدَ هَلاَّ قُلْتَ لَهُ كَذَا [وَ كَذَا] قَالَ قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ لَوْ كُنْتُ أُحْسِنُ مِثْلَ هَذَا لَمْ أَرُدَّ الأَمْرَ عَلَيْكَ هَذِهِ أَلْفَاظُ أَبِي هَاشِمٍ لَيْسَتْ أَلْفَاظَهُ.

3. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from abu Hashim al-Ja’fariy who has said the following: “Once, abu al-Hassan (a.s.), during his illness, called me and Muhammad ibn Hamzah. Muhammad ibn Hamzah went to him before me. Muhammad told me that he (the Imam) still says, ‘You must send someone to al-Hayr (shrine of Imam al-Husayn) to pray there so I get well soon.’ I then asked Muhammad, ‘Did you not tell him (the Imam) that I am going to al-Hayr?’ I then went to the Imam and said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, I am going to al-Hayr.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘You must consider it properly.’ He (the Imam) then said, ‘Muhammad does not possess the secret (belief in the divine authority of Imam) from Zayd ibn Ali, (his father) and I do not like that he hears this.’ He (the narrator) has said that he mentioned this to Ali ibn Bilal. He said, ‘What does he (Imam) want from al-Hayr (shrine of Imam al-Hassan)? He himself is al-Hayr.’ I then went to the army camp near his home. He (the Imam) said, ‘Sit down’, when I wanted to stand up to leave. When I found that he was comfortable with me, I then mentioned to him the words of Ali ibn Bilal. He (the Imam) said to me, ‘Why did you not tell him that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, would perform Tawaf around the House and kiss the Black Stone? The greatness of the prophet and believers is greater than the greatness of the House. Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, commanded him to stay in ‘Arafah. Allah loves wherein He loves to be spoken of. I love that prayer is made for me before Allah wherein Allah loves prayers that are made before Him.’ He (the narrator) has said that he mentioned certain things from the Imam that I did not save from him. He (the Imam) said, ‘These are places wherein Allah loves that He is worshipped. I thus love that prayers be made for me wherein Allah loves to be worshipped. Why did you not say so and so to him.’ He, abu Hashim has said that I then said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause. Could I do as good as this (what you said), I would not bring the matter before you.’ These are the words of abu Hashim, not the words of Imam.”

A group of our companions narrated from Sahl b. Ziyad, from Muhammad b. ‘Uramah, from someone who narrated from al-Sadiq Abu al-Hasan al-Thalith (as), who said: One should say: “Peace be upon you, O Wali of Allah. You are the first oppressed one and the first whose right was usurped. You were patient and sought reward until certainty (death) came to you. I bear witness that you met Allah as a martyr. May Allah punish your killer with all kinds of torment and renew the punishment upon him. I have come to you knowing your right, aware of your status, an enemy to your enemies and those who wronged you. I entrust this to my Lord, if Allah wills. O Wali of Allah, I have many sins, so intercede for me with your Lord, for you have a known praised station with Allah, and you have status and intercession with Allah. And He, the Exalted, said: ‘And they do not intercede except for one with whom He is pleased.’” Muhammad b. Ja‘far al-Razi narrated from Muhammad b. ‘Isa b. ‘Ubayd, from one of our companions, from Abu al-Hasan al-Thalith (as), something similar.

تقول: " السلام عليك يا ولى الله، السلام عليك يا حجة الله، السلام عليك يا خليفة الله، السلام عليك يا عمود الدين ، السلام عليك يا وارث النبيين، السلام عليك يا قسيم الجنة والنار وصاحب العصا والميسم ، السلام عليك يا أمير المؤمنين أشهد أنك كلمة التقوى وباب الهدي والعروة الوثقى والحبل المتين والصراط المستقيم و أشهد أنك حجة الله على خلقه وشاهده على عباده وأمينه على علمه وخازن سره و موضع حكمته وأخو رسوله (عليه السلام) وأشهد أن دعوتك حق وكل داع منصوب دونك باطل مدحوض، أنت أول مظلوم وأول مغصوب حقه فصبرت واحتسبت، لعن الله من ظلمك واعتدي عليك وصد عنك لعنا كثيرا يلعنهم به كل ملك مقرب وكل نبي مرسل وكل عبد مؤمن ممتحن، صلى الله عليك يا أمير المؤمنين وصلي الله على روحك وبدنك أشهد أنك عبد الله وأمينه بلغت ناصحا وأديت أمينا وقتلت صديقا ومضيت على يقين لم تؤثر عمي على هدي ولم تمل من حق إلى باطل، أشهد أنك قد أقمت الصلاة وآتيت الزكاة وأمرت بالمعروف ونهيت عن المنكر واتبعت الرسول ونصحت للأمة وتلوت الكتاب حق تلاوته وجاهدت في الله حق جهاده ودعوت إلى سبيله بالحكمة والموعظة الحسنة حتى أتاك اليقين، أشهد أنك كنت على بينة من ربك ودعوت إليه على بصيرة وبلغت ما أمرت به وقمت بحق الله غير واهن فصلي الله عليك صلاة متبعة متواصلة مترادفة يتبع بعضها بعضا لا انقطاع لها ولا أمد ولا أجل والسلام عليك ورحمة الله وبركاته وجزاك الله من صديق خيرا عن رعيته، أشهد أن الجهاد معك جهاد وأن الحق معك وإليك وأنت أهله ومعدنه وميراث النبوة عندك فصلى الله عليك وسلم تسليما وعذب الله قاتلك بأنواع العذاب، أتيتك يا أمير المؤمنين عارفا بحقك مستبصرا بشأنك معاديا لأعدائك مواليا لأوليائك بابي أنت وأمي أتيتك عائذا بك من نار استحقها مثلي بما جنيت على نفسي أتيتك زائرا أبتغي بزيارتك فكاك رقبتي من النار، أتيتك هاربا من ذنوبي التي احتطبتها على ظهري أتيتك وافدا لعظيم حالك ومنزلتك عند ربي فاشفع لي عند ربك فإن لي ذنوبا كثيرة وإن لك عند الله مقاما معلوما وجاها عظيما وشأنا كبيرا وشفاعة مقبولة وقد قال الله عز وجل: " ولا يشفعون إلا لمن ارتضى " اللهم رب الأرباب صريخ الأحباب إني عذت بأخي رسولك معاذا ففك رقبتي من النار آمنت بالله وما انزل إليكم وأتولى آخركم بما توليت [به] أولكم وكفرت بالجبت و الطاغوت واللات والعزى.

You say: "Peace be upon you, O vicegerent of Allah, peace be upon you, O proof of Allah, peace be upon you, O successor of Allah, peace be upon you, O pillar of the religion, peace be upon you, O inheritor of the prophets, peace be upon you, O divider of paradise and hell, and the bearer of the staff and the seal, peace be upon you, O commander of the faithful. <br>I bear witness that you are the word of piety, the gate of guidance, the firm bond, the strong rope, and the straight path. I bear witness that you are Allah's proof to His creation, His witness over His servants, His trustee of His knowledge, the keeper of His secrets, the repository of His wisdom, and the brother of His Messenger (as). <br>I bear witness that your call is true and that any caller appointed apart from you is false and refuted. You are the first oppressed and the first whose right was usurped; you endured patiently and sought the reward. May Allah curse those who wronged you, exceeded against you, and turned away from you with numerous curses, cursed by every close angel, every sent prophet, and every tested believing servant. <br>Peace be upon you, O commander of the faithful, peace be upon your soul and your body. I bear witness that you are a servant of Allah and His trustee; you conveyed faithfully and performed sincerely, were killed as a truthful friend, and departed with certainty, neither preferring blindness to guidance nor deviating from truth to falsehood. <br>I bear witness that you established the prayer, gave the alms, enjoined good, forbade evil, followed the Messenger, advised the nation, recited the Book as it should be recited, strove for Allah as one should strive, and invited to His path with wisdom and good advice until certainty came to you. <br>I bear witness that you were on clear evidence from your Lord, called to Him with insight, conveyed what you were commanded, and upheld Allah’s rights without weakness. So may Allah send blessings upon you, continuous, successive, and uninterrupted, and grant you peace and mercy. May Allah reward you as a truthful friend on behalf of your followers. <br>I bear witness that fighting alongside you is a struggle (for the sake of Allah), and that truth is with you and returns to you; you are its rightful owner and source, and the inheritance of prophethood is with you. So may Allah send blessings upon you and grant you peace. May Allah punish your killer with various forms of torment. <br>I come to you, O commander of the faithful, acknowledging your right, understanding your position, opposing your enemies, and supporting your friends. My father and mother are at your service. I come to you seeking refuge from the fire which someone like me deserves because of what I have done to myself. I come to you as a visitor, hoping that your visitation will free my neck from the fire. I come to you fleeing from my sins that I have heaped upon my back. I come to you recognizing your great status and rank with my Lord. <br>So intercede for me with your Lord, for I have many sins, and you have a known position and great status with Allah, and a significant intercession. Allah the Exalted said: 'And they will not intercede except for him with whom He is pleased.' (21:28) O Allah, Lord of lords, Helper of the beloved, I have sought refuge with the brother of Your Messenger, so free my neck from the fire. I believe in Allah and what has been revealed to you, and I am loyal to your last one as I was loyal to your first one, and I disbelieve in the Jibt, and the Taghut, and Al-Lat and Al-Uzza."

1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Yahya ibn Zakariya from Yazid ibn ‘Umar ibn Talhah who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), once said to me, when he was in al-Hirah, ’Do you want to have what I had promised you?’ I said, ‘Yes, I do want to have it,’ meaning visiting the gravesite of ’Amir al-Mu’minin. He (the narrator) has said, ‘He, Isma‘il and I embarked with them and we moved until we passed al-Thuwayyah (a place near al-Kufah). Between al-Hirah and al-Najaf there were white pieces of stones. He (the Imam) disembarked so also did Isma‘il and I. He (the Imam) performed salat (prayer) so also did Isma‘il and I also performed salat (prayer). He (the Imam) said to Isma‘il, ‘Stand up and offer al-Salam to your great grandfather, al-Husayn (a.s.) .’ I then asked, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, is not al-Husayn (a.s.), in Karbala?’ He (the Imam) replied, ‘That is true but when they were taking his head to the Levant one of our friends stealthily took the head away from them and buried it beside ’Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s.).’”

2. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ibrahim ibn ‘Uqbah from al-Hassan al-Khazzaz from al-Washsha’ Abu al-Faraj from Aban ibn Taghlib who has said the following: “I once was with Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), when he passed by the backside of al-Kufah. He disembarked for two Rak‘at salat (prayer), then he moved forward a little and performed two Rak‘at salat (prayer), then he moved a little, then disembarked and performed two Rak‘at salat (prayer), then he said, ‘This is the gravesite of ’Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s.).’ I then asked, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for Your cause, what about the other two places where you performed salat (prayer). He (the Imam) replied, ‘One was the place of the head of (Imam) al-Husayn (a.s.), and the place of the house of al-Qa'im (a.s.).’”

1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa’id from Fadalah ibn Ayyub from Nu’aym ibn al-Walid from Yunus al-Kunasiy who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that when you decide to visit the gravesite of al-Husayn (a.s.), go to al-Furat and take a bath near his gravesite; then move toward him in a serene and dignified manner until you enter the shrine from its east side. During entering say, ‘I offer greeting of peace to the descending angels of Allah. I offer greeting of peace to the substituting angels of Allah. I offer greeting of peace to the marking angels of Allah. I offer greeting of peace to the angel of Allah who live in this sacred place.’ When you are in front of the gravesite of Al-Husayn (a.s.), you should say, ‘(I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge the divine authority of and my) submission to (the commandments of) the Messenger of Allah. (I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge the divine authority of the trustee of Allah over His messengers and His decisive commandments, the seal of that which were before and the opening of that which is to come and the dominant over all of the affairs. May Allah grant him protection, kindness and blessings.’ Then you should say, £ 0 Allah, I appeal before You to grant salawat (favors and compensation) to ’Amir al- Mu’minin, Ali, Your servant, brother of Your messenger, whom You have chosen through Your knowledge and have made a guide for whomever of Your creatures You wanted and a vanguard for those whom You have sent with Your messages. He is the one provider and facilitator of the system of justice of Your religion according to Your justice, a differentiator in the issuance of Your judgment among Your creatures and the dominant over all such affairs. O Allah, grant him protection, kindness and blessing. O Allah, I appeal before You to grant salawat (favors and compensation to al-Hassan ibn Ali, worthy of his services to Your cause). He is Your servant and the son of the one whom You have chosen through Your knowledge and have appointed a guide for whomever You wanted of Your creatures, a vanguard for those whom You have sent with Your messages. He is the one provider and facilitator of the system of justice of Your religion according to Your justice, a differentiator in the issuance of Your judgment among Your creatures and the dominant over all such affairs. O Allah grant him protection, kindness and blessing.’ Then say salawat al-Salam for al-Husayn and all other ’A’immah, ‘Alayhim al-Salam, just as you said for (Imam) al-Hassan (a.s.). Thereafter go near the gravesite of al-Husayn (a.s.), and say, ‘(I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments) O grandson of the Messenger of Allah. (I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments) O son of ’Amir al-Mu’minin. I appeal before Allah to grant salawat (favors and compensation to you worthy of Your services to His cause) O abu ‘Abd Allah. I testify that you completed the task Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, had commanded you to accomplish. You were not afraid of anyone other than Allah, strove hard for His cause, worshipped Him a true worshipping until the time of your martyrdom. I testify that you are the words of piety, the gateway of guidance, the unbreakable safety ring, the authority of Allah over the living and those under the earth. I testify that such qualities existed with you in the past and they are means of victory and triumph in future. I testify that your spirits and your clay (substance of your bodies) are clean, pure and cleansed. The substances of you (’A’immah) bodies were one from the other. It was a favor and great kindness for us from Allah. I designate Allah as my witness and I designate you as my witness that I believe in your (divine authority), I am your follower in my soul, in the rules of my religion, in the consequences of my deeds, in my return and my place of rest. I appeal before Allah, Honorable and Merciful to complete it for me. I testify that you accomplished all that Allah had commanded you to do and in so doing you were not afraid of anyone other than Allah. You strove hard for His cause, worshipped Him until the time of your death. I appeal before Allah to condemn those who murdered you, those who commanded your murderer and those condoned with the plan of your murderers. I testify that the statements of the Holy Prophet condemned those who violated your sanctity and spilled your blood.’ “Thereafter say, ‘O Allah, condemn those who have misrepresented Your bounty, opposed Your institution, turned away from Your command, accused Your messenger and created obstacles in Your path. O Allah, fill their graves with fire as well as their bellies and drive them and their followers to hell with their eyes turned blue. O Allah, condemn them with such condemnation with which the prominent angels, every messenger-prophet and every believing person whose faith is tested for its strength will condemn. O Allah, condemn them in most secrecy and concealment as well as openly in public manner. O Allah, condemn Jawabit (pi. of Jibt, devil) of this nation as well as its Tawaghit (pi. of taghut, transgressors), condemn its Pharaohs, condemn the murderers of ’Amir al-Mu’minin, the murderers of al-Husayn and punish them with such punishment which no one in the world is punished with. O Allah, make us of those who support him, of those whom You use for support and You grant them Your support for the cause of Your religion in this world as well as in the next world.’ “Then sit down near his head and say, I appeal before Allah to grant salawat (favors and compensation to you worthy of Your services to His cause). I testify that you are a servant of Allah, His trustee who has accomplished with wisdom the task of trustworthiness, spoke as truthful person and passed away with certainty. You did not accept blindness in place of guidance and never deviated from truth to falsehood. I testify that you performed salat (prayer), paid zakat, commanded people to do good and forbade them from doing evil deeds, followed the Messenger, recited the book in the true way of recitation and called people to the path of your Lord with wisdom and good advice. I appeal before Allah to grant salawat (favors and compensation to you worthy of Your services to His cause), with safety and protection. I appeal before Allah to reward you as with the reward of a truthful one’s good rewards for his services to his people. I testify that Jihad (striving for the cause of Allah) in your support is the true Jihad. I testify that truth is on your side, it belongs to you, you are of the people of truth, the source of truth and that the legacy of prophet-hood is with you and with the people of your family. I appeal before Allah to grant salawat (favors and compensation to you worthy of Your services to His cause), with peace and protection. I testify that you are Allah’s truthful servant and His authority over his creatures. I testify that your call is truthful call and every caller appointed beside you is false and invalid. I testify that Allah is the clear truth.’ “Thereafter you should go toward his feet and pray for yourself as you may choose. ‘Then you should go toward the head of Ali ibn al-Husayn and say, ‘I appeal before Allah to grant you His protection and peace and the greeting of peace of His prominent angels and prophets who were sent as messengers. You are my master and the son of my master. I appeal before Allah to bless you with His kindness and blessings. I appeal before Allah to grant compensation and reward to you, your family and the offspring of your noble and chosen ancestors from whom Allah has decided to remove all rijs (all filthy matters) and purify in a through purification.’ “Thereafter you should go to the gravesites of the martyrs and offer them your greetings of peace and say, I appeal before Allah to grant you peace and protection, O believers in the Lord, you have proceeded and we follow you. We are your followers and supporters. I testify that you are supporters of Allah, the masters of the martyrs in this world and in the next life. You are supporters of Allah as Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, has said, “There were many prophets on whose side people believing in the Lord were fighting. They did not show any lack of responsibility even though they were hurt for the cause of Allah, nor showed any weakness or compromise with the enemy.” (3:146) You indeed did not show any weakness or compromise with the enemy, until you went before Allah on the path of the truth, supporting the perfect words of Allah. I appeal before Allah to grant favors and compensation to your spirits and bodies worthy of your services to His cause, with peace and protection. There is good news for you through the promise of Allah, which does not change, because He does not change His promises. Allah will accomplish His granting what He has promised to you, the masters of the martyrs, in this world and in the next life. You are the first al-Muhajirun (immigrants (to Allah)) and al- Ansar (the helpers). I testify that you did Jihad (strove hard) for the cause of Allah and you were murdered while protecting the institution of the Messenger of Allah and the son (the child) of the Messenger of Allah, I appeal before Allah to grant salawat (favors and compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause) with peace and protection. All praise belongs to Allah who made His promise with you to come true and showed you what you loved.’ “Then return to the gravesite and say, ‘I have come to you, O beloved of the Messenger of Allah, the son (child) of the Messenger of Allah. I am aware of your status and I acknowledge your rights. I am aware of your merits and the straying of those who opposed you. I have knowledge of the guidance you follow. I pray to Allah to keep my soul and the souls of my parents in service for your cause. O Allah, I appeal before You to grant salawat (favors and compensation to you worthy of Your services to His cause) just as You have granted favors and compensation worthy of his services to Your cause, and as Your messenger and ’Amir al-Mu’minin have appealed before You to grant compensation to him worthy of his services to Your cause. Grant him a continuous salat, connected, substituted one, following the other without break in time or point of time at this time and when we are here or not here. (I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments) and appeal before Allah to grant you protection, kindness and blessings’. “When you decide to say farewell to him say, ’(I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments) and appeal before Allah to grant you protection and kindness and blessings. I leave you in the protection of Allah and offer you my greeting of peace. We believe in Allah, the Messenger of Allah and in what you have brought and guided to. We have followed the messenger, so list us among the witnesses. O Allah, do not make this the last chance for me to visit him and his seeing us. O Allah, I appeal before You to make us benefit from our love for him. O Allah, raise him to the praiseworthy position whereby You support through him Your religion, eliminate Your enemies, destroy those who commence a war against the family of Muhammad (a.s.); You have promised so and You do not change Your promise. (I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments and I appeal before Allah to grant you protection, kindness and blessings. I testify that you are noble martyrs who strove hard for the cause of Allah and were murdered while protecting the institution of the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant salawat (favors and compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause) with protection and safety a great deal.’”

2. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Qasim ibn Yahya from his grandfather al-Hassan ibn Rashid from al-Husayn ibn Thuwayr who has said the following: “Once Yunus ibn Zabayan, al-Mufaddal ibn ‘Umar, abu Salmah al-Sarraj and I were sitting in the presence of abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.). Among us Yunus, who was the eldest did the speaking and he said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, I sometimes attend the meeting of these people, meaning children of al-‘Abbas, what should I say?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘When you are in their meeting and you speak of us then say, “O Allah, show us comfort and happiness,” in saying this you come up with what you want.’ I then said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, I very often speak of al-Husayn (a.s.), what I should say?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Say, ‘Sala’ Allah ‘Alayka O abu ‘Abd Allah, I appeal before Allah to grant you salawat (favors and compensation to you worthy of Your services to His cause), three times. Al-Salam reaches him from nearby as well as distant places.’ He (the Imam) then said, ‘When abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), passed away, the seven heavens and the seven earths wept. Everything between them, those who move in paradise and in hell, all that our Creator has created, all that can be seen and those that cannot be seen wept for abu ‘Abd Allah, al-Husayn ‘Alayhi al-Salam. Only three things did not weep.’ I then asked, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, what are these three things?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Things that did not weep were al-Basrah, Damascus and Ale ‘Uthman who did not weep, may Allah’s condemnation be upon them.’ I then said, ‘I want to visit him. What should I do?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘When you want to visit abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), take a bath in al- Furat canal, then dress up in clean cloths, walk bare-foot; you are in a sacred location of Allah and the sacred locations of His Messenger. You must say Takhir (Allah is great beyond description), Tahlil (no one deserves worship except Allah). Tasbih, (Allah is free of all defects), Tahmid (all praise belongs to Allah) and Ta‘zim (Allah the most great is free of all defects) of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, a great deal as well as saying, O Allah, grant salawat (favors and compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause). When you arrive at the door of al- Hayr then say, ‘(I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments) O the one who possesses authority from Allah, and son of the one who possesses authority from Allah. I offer greeting of peace to you, O angels of Allah, and visitors of the gravesite of the grandchild of the prophet of Allah.’ Then take ten steps forward, then stand up and say Takhir (Allah is great beyond description) thirty times. Then move forward until you reach in front of him. Turn your face toward his face and your back toward the direction of Ka‘bah, then say, ‘(I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments), O Tha’ra Allah (wergild for whom belongs to Allah) son of Tha’ra Allah. (I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments) O Watru (the oppressed one who belong to the side of Allah) Allah al-Mawtur in heavens and on earth. I testify that your blood lives in eternity because of which the shadows of the Throne shudder, for which all creatures in all seven heavens, seven earths, all that is between them, all that moves in paradise and in hell of the creatures of our Lord, things that can be seen and those that cannot be seen weep. I testify that you possess authority from Allah and you are the son of one who possesses authority from Allah. I testify that you were murdered and your father was murdered as well. I testify that you are Tha’ra Allah son of Tha’ra Allah. I testify that you are watru Allah al-Mawtur in the heaves and on earth. I testify that you preached, gave good advice, remained loyal, accomplished the task assigned to you and strove hard for the cause of Allah and passed away for the cause, which you cherished, as a martyr seeking martyrdom, and a witness and witnessed to. I am a servant of Allah under your guardianship, obedient to your commandments, and one of your visitors who seek perfect position before Allah and steadfastness in migrating toward you and in the way without wavering toward you until arriving in your custodianship, which you maintain and you are commanded to maintain. Whomever Allah wants He begins with you. Through you, falsehood becomes clear where falsehood is, through you Allah keeps away the difficult times, through you Allah commences and with you Allah ends a task. Through you Allah deletes whatever He wills and through you He establishes whatever He wills. Through you He opens up humiliation from around our necks and through you Allah brings to justice the murderers of every believer. Through you the earth grows its trees. Through you the trees yield their fruits. Through you Allah sends down rain and sustenance from the sky. Through you Allah removes hardship and through you Allah sends down heavy rain. Through you the earth, which carries your bodies, stands solid and mountains remain firm against swirling. The will of the Lord about the measurements of affairs descends before you and comes out from your homes as well as the decisions about rules dealing with affairs of servants (of Allah). Condemned is the group who murdered you and the group who opposed you, the group who rejected your divine authority, the group who came against you openly and the group who witnessed but did not seek martyrdom. All praise belongs to Allah who has made hellfire their dwelling, which is the worst place in which to disembark and the worst place for the arriving ones and a worst arrival place. All praise belongs to Allah, Lord of the worlds. I appeal before Allah to grant salawat (favors and compensation to you worthy of your services to His cause), O abu ‘ Abd Allah. We before Allah denounce all of those who opposed you’ - three times. ‘Then stand up and go to his son, Ali who is near his feet, and say, “I offer to you my greeting of peace, O son of the grandson of the Messenger of Allah. I offer you my greeting of peace, O grandson of ’Amir al-Mu’minin Ali. I offer you my greeting of peace, O child of al-Hassan and al-Husayn. I offer you my greeting of peace, O great grandson of Khadijah and Fatimah. I appeal before Allah to grant you favors worthy of your services to His cause. Allah has condemned those who murdered you”- say it three times. “I, before Allah denounce them”- three times. Then say, making a hand gesture toward the martyrs, “I offer you my greeting of peace”- three times. “(I am certain that), by Allah, you have achieved success and you have become successful. I wish I was with you and gained a great success.” Then you should go around keeping the gravesite of abu ‘Abd Allah before you, then perform six Rak‘at salat (prayer). Your visit is complete and you may leave if you wish.’”

3. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Muhammad ibn ‘Uramah from certain individuals of our people who has said the following: “Abu al-Hassan Sahib al- ‘Askar (a.s.), has said, near the head of al-Husayn (a.s.), you should say this. ‘(I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments), O abu ‘Abd Allah. (I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments), O possessor of authority of Allah on His earth and a witness over His creatures. (I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments), O grandson of the Messenger of Allah. (I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments), O son of Ali, al-Murtada’. (I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments), O son of Fatimah, al-Zahra’. I testify that you performed salat (prayer), paid zakat, commanded people to do good and forbade them from doing evil deeds and strove hard for the cause of Allah until the time of your death. I appeal before Allah to grant salawat (favors and compensation to you worthy of your services to His cause) during the lifetime as well as after death.’ “Thereafter place the right side of your face on the grave and say, ‘I testify that you had clear proof about your Lord. I have come to confess to my sins so you may intercede on my behalf before your Lord, O grandson of the Messenger of Allah,’ then mention the names of ’A’immah (a.s.), one by one and say, T testify that you are possessors of authority of Allah.’ Then say, ‘Please, write down before you, as pledge and covenant that I came before you to renew the covenant, so bear witness for me before your Lord that you are the witness.’” NOTE:Muhammad ibn Ja’far al-Raziy al-Kufiy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa ibn ‘Ubayd from those whom he has mentioned from abu al-Hassan (a.s.), a similar Hadith.
