“TAQŠǏR” of the Obligatory Prayers and Performing Voluntary Prayers During Ziyārah — Hadith 1

1. My father and Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan both narrated to me from Ḥusain ibn Ḥasan ibn Abān, from Ḥusain ibn Sa’īd, from Qāsim ibn Muḥammad Al-Jawhari, from ‘Ali ibn Abī Ḥamzah, who said: I asked the Righteous Slave (Imam Kāżim (a. s. )) about going to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali (a. s. ). Imam (a. s. ) replied, “I do not want you to abandon it. ” I asked, “What is your opinion about establishing voluntary prayers there if I am a MUQASSIR? ” Imam (a. s. ) replied, “You can establish as many voluntary prayers as you like in Masjid Al-Ḥarām, in the Mosque of the Messenger (s. a. a. w. ), and next to the grave of Ḥusain (a. s. ). Verily I love (doing) that. ” I asked, “Can I establish voluntary prayers next to the grave of Ḥusain (a. s. ) during the day? ” Imam (a. s. ) replied, “Yes. ”
