The Clay of the Grave of Ĥusain (a.s.) and Seeking Cure Through It
Source

۞
2. Muḥammad ibn ‘Abdillāh narrated to me from his father, from Abī ‘Abdillāh Al-Barqi, from some of our companions, who said
A woman gave me some yarn and asked me to give it to the keepers of the Ka’bah to use it to make the cover of the Ka’bah. However, I did not want to give it to them because I knew them. Therefore, when we arrived in Madīnah, I went to Abī Ja’far (Imam Bāqir (a.s.)) and said, “May I sacrifice myself for you! A woman gave me some yarn and asked me to give it to the keepers of the Ka’bah to use it to make the cover of the Ka’bah. However, I do not want to give it to them.” Imam (a.s.) said, “(Sell it and) buy some honey and saffron with its price. Then take some of the clay of the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.), mix it with some rain water, and add some of that honey and saffron to it. Distribute it among the Shia so that they may cure their ill ones with it.” My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā, from Muḥammad ibn Ismā’īl Al-Basri – who was known as Fahad, from some of his scholars, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) said: The clay of the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.) is the cure for every disease.
2 حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَرْقِيِّ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا قَالَ
دَفَعَتْ إِلَيَّ امْرَأَةٌ غَزْلًا فَقَالَتْ ادْفَعْهُ إِلَى حَجَبَةِ مَكَّةَ لِيُخَاطَ بِهِ كِسْوَةُ الْكَعْبَةِ قَالَ فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَدْفَعَهُ إِلَى الْحَجَبَةِ وَ أَنَا أَعْرِفُهُمْ فَلَمَّا أَنْ صِرْنَا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (ع) فَقُلْتُ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ إِنَّ امْرَأَةً أَعْطَتْنِي غَزْلًا فَقَالَتْ ادْفَعْهُ بِمَكَّةَ لِيُخَاطَ بِهِ كِسْوَةُ الْكَعْبَةِ فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَدْفَعَهُ إِلَى الْحَجَبَةِ فَقَالَ اشْتَرِ بِهِ عَسَلًا وَ زَعْفَرَانَ [زَعْفَرَاناً- وَ خُذْ مِنْ طِينِ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) وَ اعْجِنْهُ بِمَاءِ السَّمَاءِ وَ اجْعَلْ فِيهِ مِنَ الْعَسَلِ وَ الزَّعْفَرَانِ وَ فَرِّقْهُ عَلَى الشِّيعَةِ لِيُدَاوُوا بِهِ مَرْضَاهُمْ
