2. Muĥammad ibn Ĥasan ibn Aĥmad and others narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Mūsā ibn ‘Umar, from Šāliĥ ibn Sindi Al-Jammāl, from someone who was from Raqqah, whose name was Abul Maďā, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Šādiq ) asked me, “Do you go to (the Ziyārah of) the grave of Abǐ ‘Abdillāh (Imam Ĥusain )?” I replied, “Yes.” Imam  asked, “Do you take different kinds of food with you?” I replied, “Yes.” Imam  said, “Verily if you were going to the graves of your own fathers and mothers, you would not have done this.” I asked, “Then what should we eat?” Imam  replied, “Bread and milk.” Abul Maďā (the narrator) added: Kirām (‘Abdul Karǐm ibn ‘Amr Al-Khath’ami) narrated that he said to Abǐ ‘Abdillāh (Imam Šādiq ), “May I sacrifice myself for you! Some people who go to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ĥusain  take tasty foods with them.” Imam  said, “Verily if they were going to the graves of their own fathers and mothers, they would not have done this.”
