That Which Is Not Recommended to Take to the Ziyārah of Ĥusain ibn ‘Ali — Hadith 4

4. Muḥammad ibn Aḥmad ibn Ḥusain narrated to me from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali ibn Mahziyār, from his father, from Ḥasan ibn Sa’īd, from Zur’ah ibn Muḥammad Al-Ḥaďrami, from Mufaďďal ibn ‘Umar, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a. s. )) said, “Going to the Ziyārah (of Ḥusain (a. s. )) is better than not going. (However, sometimes) not going to (his) Ziyārah is better than going. ” I said, “You broke my back! ! ! ” Imam (a. s. ) said: By Allāh! When you people go to the graves of your fathers you are anguished and grieved. However, when you go to him (Ḥusain (a. s. )) you carry different kinds of food with you. No! (It is better not to go to him) unless you go disheveled and covered with dust.
