8. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Saimah ibn ai-Khattab from ‘ Abd Allah ibn al-Khattab from ‘ Abd Allah ibn Muhammad ibn Sinan from Misma’ from Yunus ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman from Hanan from his father who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah , once said, ‘O Sadir, do you visit the grave of al-Husayn , every day?’ I replied, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, no, I do not visit every day.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘How harsh are your manners toward him!’ He (the Imam) then asked, ‘Do you visit him every Friday?’ I replied, ‘No; we do not visit him every Friday.’ He (the Imam) asked, ‘Do you visit him every month?’ I replied, ‘No, we do not visit him every month.’ He (the Imam) asked, ‘Do you visit him every year?’ I replied, ‘Sometimes we do and sometimes we do not visit him once every year.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘How harsh have you been toward al-Husayn , O Sadir! Do you not know that Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, has assigned a million angels to the grave of al-Husayn  ? These angels are sad, sorrowful and in an untidy physical condition and they mourn for him. They visit him tirelessly. It is not difficult, O Sadir, if you visit al-Husayn five times every week, once every day.’ I then said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, there are many miles between our location and the grave of al-Husayn  .’ He (the Imam) said to me, ‘You can climb on the roof of your house, then turn right and left, then raise your head toward the sky, then turn toward the direction of the grave and say, ‘(I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments), O abu ‘Abd Allah. (I hereby declare, affirm and acknowledge that you are a ‘Alayhi al-Salam and my) submission to (your commandments) and appeal to Allah to grant you kindness and blessings. For this much one Zawrah will be written for you. One zawrah is equal to one al-Hajj and al-‘Umrah.’ Sadir has said, ‘I thereafter would do so, more than twenty times every month.”
