The Merits of the Ziyārah of the Believers and How it Should be Performed

14 وَ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبَانٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أُورَمَةَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ قَالَ قَامَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (ع) عَلَى قَبْرِ رَجُلٍ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ صِلْ وَحْدَتَهُ وَ آنِسْ وَحْشَتَهُ وَ أَسْكِنْ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ رَحْمَتِكَ مَا يَسْتَغْنِي بِهِ عَنْ رَحْمَةِ مَنْ سِوَاكَ
14. My father narrated to me from Ḥusain ibn Ḥasan ibn Abān, from Muḥammad ibn Ūramah, from ‘Ali ibn Ḥakam, from Ibn ‘Ajlān, who said: Abū Ja’far (Imam Bāqir عليه السلام) stood next to the grave of a man and said: O Allāh! Connect with him in his loneliness; keep him company in his desolation; and descend Your Mercy on him in a way that he will not need the mercy of others.
