Reward of Ziyarat of Imam Husain عليه السلام

31. Imam Ja’far Sadiq عليه السلام told Husain bin Suwair, “O Husain! One who starts from his home with an intention of doing the Ziyarat of the grave of Imam Husain عليه السلام Allah would note a reward and wipe a sin for every step taken. If he is on a mount Allah would note down a reward and wipe a sin for every step of the mount till he reaches Kerbala. The Almighty Allah would include him among those who get salvation. And when he performs the deeds of Ziyarat Allah includes him among the successful. When he makes an intention to return, an angel would come and say, ‘The Holy Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم has sent his salutations to you and has conveyed that your past sins are forgiven. Now you can have a new start in your deeds’.”
