Reward of the Ziyarat of the graves of Imams عليه السلام
حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ غِیَاثٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِی نَصْرٍ الْبَزَنْطِیِّ قَالَ: قَرَأْتُ کِتَابَ أَبِی الْحَسَنِ الرِّضَا ع أَبْلِغْ شِیعَتِی أَنَّ زِیَارَتِی تَعْدِلُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَلْفَ حِجَّهٍ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع أَلْفَ حِجَّهٍ قَالَ إِی وَ اللَّهِ وَ أَلْفَا حِجَّهٍ لِمَنْ زَارَهُ عَارِفاً بِحَقِّهِ قَالَ الصَّادِقُ ع مَنْ زَارَ وَاحِداً مِنَّا کَانَ کَمَنْ زَارَ الْحُسَیْنَ ع.
3. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to us by Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from Ahmad b. Muhammad b. Ghiyath from Ahmad b. Muhammad b. Abi Nasr al-Bazanti who said: It is narrated that a letter of Imam Ridha عليه السلام contained the following text: “Convey to my Shias that the reward of my Ziyarat equals to one thousand Hajjs.” The narrator asked Imam Jawad عليه السلام, “Is it equal to a thousand Hajjs?” Imam عليه السلام replied, “Yes, one who performs his Ziyarat knowing his right this act is equal to a million Hajjs.” Imam Ja’far Sadiq عليه السلام says that one who performs the Ziyarat of any one of us will get the reward of the Ziyarat of Imam Husain عليه السلام.”
