Crying of the Angels on Ĥusain ibn ‘Ali — Hadith 14

14. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā, from his father, from Sayf ibn ‘Amīrah, from Bakr ibn Muḥammad, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a. s. )) said: Allāh has dedicated seventy thousand angels to the grave of Ḥusain (a. s. ). They are disheveled and covered with dust. They cry over him (and will continue to do so) until the Day of Judgment. They establish Salāt by his grave and each of their Salāt is equal to one thousand Salāt of mankind, and the reward of their Salāt will be registered for those who go to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain (a. s. ).
