The Reward for Going to the Ziyārah of Ĥusain عليه السلام on Foot or by Any Means of Transport, Allāh’s Confidential Discourse with the Zā`ir of Ĥusain عليه السلام
9 حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْقُرَشِيُّ الرَّزَّازُ عَنْ خَالِهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَبِي الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ السَّرَّاجِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْقَاضِي قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) فِي غُرَيْفَةٍ لَهُ وَ عِنْدَهُ مُرَازِمٌ فَسَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) يَقُولُ مَنْ أَتَى قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) مَاشِياً كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ بِكُلِّ خُطْوَةٍ وَ بِكُلِّ قَدَمٍ يَرْفَعُهَا وَ يَضَعُهَا عِتْقَ رَقَبَةٍ مِنْ وُلْدِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَ مَنْ أَتَاهُ بِسَفِينَةٍ فَكَفَتْ بِهِمْ سَفِينَتُهُمْ نَادَى مُنَادٍ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ طِبْتُمْ وَ طَابَتْ لَكُمُ الْجَنَّةُ
9. Muḥammad ibn Ja’far Al-Qurashi Al-Razzāz narrated to me from his uncle Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain ibn Abil Khaťťāb, from Aḥmad ibn Bashīr Al-Sarrāj, from Abī Sa’īd Al-Qāďi, who said: I entered the chamber of Abī ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام) and found Murāzim (ibn Ḥukaym) with him. I heard Abā ‘Abdillāh عليه السلام say: Allāh will register the reward of freeing a slave from the children of Ismā’īl for those who go to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain عليه السلام on foot with every step they take and each time they raise their foot and place it on the ground. And as for those who go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain عليه السلام by ship – if their ship drowns, a caller from the heavens will call out to them, “Be delighted and enjoy the pleasures of Paradise.”
