The Ziyārah of Ĥusain ibn ‘Ali and How It Should Be Performed — Hadith 16

16. ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Mughīrah, from ‘Abbās ibn ‘Āmir, from Jābir Al-Makfūf, from Abil Sāmit, who said: I heard Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a. s. )) say: Allāh will register one thousand good deeds and erase one thousand bad deeds for every step taken by those who go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain (a. s. ) on foot. He will also increase their rank one thousand times (for every step taken). Imam (a. s. ) added: When you arrive at the Euphrates (River), perform Ghusl, carry your shoes, and walk barefoot like a humble slave. Once you arrive at the door of the Ḥā`ir, say "Allāhu Akbar" four times. Then establish prayers next to his grave and ask Allāh for your needs.
