How Those Who Live Far (from the Grave of Ĥusain (a.s.)) Should Perform His Ziyārah

3. Ḥukaym ibn Dāwūd narrated to me from Salamah ibn Khaťťāb, from ‘Abdillāh ibn Khaťťāb, from ‘Abdillāh ibn Muḥammad ibn Sinān, from Manī’, from Yūnus ibn ‘Abdil Raḥmān, from Ḥanān ibn Sadīr, from his father, who said
Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) asked me, “O Sadīr! Do you perform the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.) once every day?” I replied, “May I sacrifice myself for you! No.” Imam (a.s.) said, “How negligent you people are!!! Do you perform his Ziyārah once every month?” I replied, “No.” Imam (a.s.) asked, “What about once every year?” I replied, “Sometimes.” Imam (a.s.) said: O Sadīr! How negligent you people are toward Ḥusain (a.s.)!!! Do you not know that Allāh has one million angels who are disheveled and covered with dust, who cry (over Ḥusain (a.s.)), and who perform his Ziyārah (at all times) and they never pause?! O Sadīr! How difficult is it for you to perform the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.) five times every Friday and once every day?! I replied, “May I sacrifice myself for you! There is a great distance between us and his grave.” Imam (a.s.) said: Go to the roof of your house, look to the right and left, raise your head toward the sky, and then try to face the direction of the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.) and say: Salām to you, O Abā ‘Abdillāh. Salām to you and (may) Allāh’s Mercy and Blessings be upon you. (By doing) so, a Zawrah will be registered for you. And Zawrah is the performance of a Hajj and an ‘Umrah. Sadīr added, “(After hearing this) there were times when I would perform this (Ziyārah) twenty times during the day.”
3 حَدَّثَنِي حَكِيمُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ مَنِيعٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ حَنَانِ بْنِ سَدِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) يَا سَدِيرُ تَزُورُ قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ لَا قَالَ مَا أَجْفَاكُمْ أَ فَتَزُورُهُ فِي كُلِّ شَهْرٍ قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ فَتَزُورُهُ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ قُلْتُ يَكُونُ ذَلِكَ قَالَ يَا سَدِيرُ مَا أَجْفَاكُمْ بِالْحُسَيْنِ (ع) [بِذَلِكَ] أَ مَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ لِلَّهِ أَلْفَ أَلْفِ ملكا [مَلَكٍ شُعْثاً غُبْراً يَبْكُونَ وَ يَزُورُونَ لَا يَفْتُرُونَ وَ مَا عَلَيْكَ يَا سَدِيرُ أَنْ تَزُورَ قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) فِي كُلِّ جُمُعَةٍ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ وَ ذَكَرَ مِثْلَ الْحَدِيثِ الْأَوَّلِ
