Hadith 244
۞
My father (rh) narrated to us. He said: Sa`d b. `Abdullah narrated to us from Ahmad b. Muhammad b. `Isa from al-Husayn b. Sa`id al-Ahwazi from al Qasim b. Muhammad from Ishaq b. Ibrahim from Harun b. Kharija. He said
I heard Abu `Abdillah say: Allah has entrusted four thousand angels, dishevelled, covered in dust, to the grave of al-Husayn. They will weep over him till the Day of Resurrection. So, whoever visits him, cognizant of his right, they will escort him until they make him reach his shelter (home). And if he is sick, they will come to visit him, morning and evening. If he dies, they will attend his funeral and they will seek forgiveness for him until the Day of Resurrection.
224 / 8 - حدثنا أبي (رحمه الله)، قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، عن الحسين بن سعيد الاهوازي، عن القاسم بن محمد، عن إسحاق بن إبراهيم، عن هارون بن خارجة، قال
سمعت أبا عبد الله يقول: وكل الله عز وجل بقبر الحسين (عليه السلام) أربعة آلاف ملك شعثا غبرا يبكونه إلى يوم القيامة، فمن زاره عارفا بحقه شيعوه حتى يبلغوه مأمنه، وإن مرض عادوه غدوة وعشيا، وإن مات شهدوا جنازته، واستغفروا له إلى يوم القيامة (1).
