6. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad from Ishaq ibn Ibrahim from Harun ibn Kharijah who has said the following
“I once heard abu ‘Abd Allah, Alayhi al-Salam, say, ‘Allah has assigned four thousand untidy and dusty angels to the grave of al-Husayn, Alayhi al-Salam. They weep for him until the Day of Judgment. They escort one who visits him with proper understanding of his rights, to his secure place. If he becomes ill these angels visit him mornings and evenings; and if he dies, these angels take part in his funeral and ask forgiveness for him until the Day of Judgment.”
6ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ خَارِجَةَ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) يَقُولُ وَكَّلَ الله بِقَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) أَرْبَعَةَ آلافِ مَلَكٍ شُعْثٍ غُبْرٍ يَبْكُونَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَمَنْ زَارَهُ عَارِفاً بِحَقِّهِ شَيَّعُوهُ حَتَّى يُبْلِغُوهُ مَأْمَنَهُ وَإِنْ مَرِضَ عَادُوهُ غُدْوَةً وَعَشِيَّةً وَإِنْ مَاتَ شَهِدُوا جَنَازَتَهُ وَاسْتَغْفَرُوا لَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ.
