The Reward for the Ziyārah of Ĥusain Is Equal to the Reward for Performing a Hajj and an ‘Umrah — Hadith 1

1. Ja’far ibn Muḥammad ibn Ibrāhīm ibn ‘Ubaydillāh ibn Mūsā ibn Ja’far narrated to me from ‘Abdillāh ibn Aḥmad ibn Nahīk, from Muḥammad ibn Abī ‘Umayr, from Ḥusain Al-Aḥmasi, from Um Sa’īd Al-Aḥmasiyyah, who said: I asked Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a. s. )) about (the reward for) going to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain (a. s. ). Imam (a. s. ) replied, “It is equal to one Hajj and one ‘Umrah and this much reward. ” Um Sa’īd added that the Imam (a. s. ) stretched open his arms and closed them (three times).
