The Reward for the Ziyārah of Abil Ĥasan ‘Ali ibn Mūsā Al-Riďā عليه السلام in Ťūs
7 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي وَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ جَمِيعاً عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي خَلَفٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ الْجَبَلِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ (ع) عَنْ رَجُلٍ حَجَّ حِجَّةَ الْإِسْلَامِ- فَدَخَلَ مُتَمَتِّعاً بِالْعُمْرَةِ إِلَى الْحَجِّ فَأَعَانَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى حَجِّهِ وَ عَلَى عُمْرَتِهِ ثُمَّ أَتَى الْمَدِينَةَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ أَتَاكَ عَارِفاً بِحَقِّكَ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ حُجَّةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى خَلْقِهِ وَ بَابُهُ الَّذِي يُؤْتَى مِنْهُ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْكَ ثُمَّ أَتَى أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْحُسَيْنَ (ع) فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَتَى بَغْدَادَ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ (ع) ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ إِلَى بِلَادِهِ فَلَمَّا كَانَ وَقْتُ الْحَجِّ رَزَقَهُ اللَّهُ مَا يَحُجُّ بِهِ فَأَيُّهُمَا أَفْضَلُ لِهَذَا الَّذِي قَدْ حَجَّ حِجَّةَ الْإِسْلَامِ يَرْجِعُ فَيَحُجُّ أَيْضاً أَوْ يَخْرُجُ إِلَى خُرَاسَانَ إِلَى أَبِيكَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُوسَى الرِّضَا (ع) فَيُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ بَلْ يَأْتِي خُرَاسَانَ فَيُسَلِّمُ عَلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ أَفْضَلُ وَ لْيَكُنْ ذَلِكَ فِي رَجَبٍ وَ لَكِنْ لَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَفْعَلُوا هَذَا الْيَوْمَ فَإِنَّ عَلَيْنَا وَ عَلَيْكُمْ خَوْفاً مِنَ السُّلْطَانِ وَ شُنْعَةً
7. My father, Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan, and ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain all narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Abī Khalaf, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Mughīrah, from Ḥusain ibn Sayf ibn ‘Amīrah, from Muḥammad ibn Aslam Al-Jabali, from Muḥammad ibn Sulaymān, who said: I said to Abī Ja’far (Imam Jawād عليه السلام): (Let’s assume there is) a person (who) decides to go to Hajj to perform his obligatory Hajj after having performed the ‘Umrah of Tamattu’ and Allāh helps him and he completes his Hajj and ‘Umrah. Then he goes to Madīnah and says Salām to the Messenger of Allāh صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, then comes to you, while believing in your rights and knowing that you are Allāh’s Decisive Proof on His creation and the door which leads to Allāh, and says Salām to you. Thereafter, he goes to (the Ziyārah of) Abī ‘Abdillāh Al-Ḥusain عليه السلام and says Salām to him, and then he goes to Baghdād and says Salām to Abil Ḥasan, Mūsā ibn Ja’far (Imam Kāżim عليه السلام), and then returns to his home country. If Allāh sustains this person in the next year with enough wealth to go for Hajj again, is it better for him to repeat the Hajj as he did in the last year or to go to Khurāsān to (the Ziyārah of) your father, ‘Ali ibn Mūsā Al-Riďā عليه السلام, and say Salām to him? Imam عليه السلام replied: It is better to go to Khurāsān and say Salām to Abil Ḥasan (Imam Riďā عليه السلام). He should go in the month of Rajab but this is not applicable now because there is fear for us and for you from the King and it outrages him.”
