٣ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ مَنْ لَمْ يَأْتِ قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) وَ هُوَ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ لَنَا شِيعَةٌ حَتَّى يَمُوتَ فَلَيْسَ هُوَ لَنَا بِشِيعَةٍ وَ إِنْ كَانَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ فَهُوَ مِنْ ضِيفَانِ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ
3. My father and ‘Ali ibn Ĥusain both narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Aĥmad ibn Muĥammad ibn ‘Isā, from his father, from Sayf ibn ‘Amǐrah, from someone who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Šādiq ) said: Those who think they are among our Shia but do not go to (the Ziyārah of) the grave of Ĥusain  before their death, are not from among our Shia. And even if they are among those who enter Paradise, they will be (treated) as visitors in Paradise.
