The Rewards and the Merits of Going to the Mosques and the Graves in Madǐnah

3 حَدَّثَنِي جَمَاعَةٌ مِنْ مَشَايِخِنَا عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ أَخِيهِ عَلِيٍّ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى وَ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ وَ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ جَمِيعاً عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) لِابْنِ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ وَ لَا تَدَعَنَّ أَنْ تَأْتِيَ الْمَشَاهِدَ كُلَّهَا وَ مَسْجِدَ قُبَا فَإِنَّهُ الْمَسْجِدُ الَّذِي أُسِّسَ عَلَى التَّقْوى مِنْ أَوَّلِ يَوْمٍ وَ مَشْرَبَةَ أُمِّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَ مَسْجِدَ الْفَضِيخِ وَ قُبُورَ الشُّهَدَاءِ وَ مَسْجِدَ الْأَحْزَابِ وَ هُوَ مَسْجِدُ الْفَتْحِ
3. A group of our scholars narrated to me from ‘Abdillāh ibn Ja’far Al-Ḥimyari, from Ibrāhīm ibn Mahziyār, from his brother ‘Ali, from Ḥasan ibn Sa’īd, from Safwān ibn Yaḥyā, Ibn Abī ‘Umayr, and Faďālah ibn Ayyūb, from Mu’āwiyah ibn ‘Ammār, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام) said to Ibn Abī Ya’fūr: Do not neglect going to the sites (around Madīnah) or the Mosque of Qubā, for it is the “mosque founded on piety from the very first day.” (Do not neglect) the Well of Um Ibrāhīm, the Mosque of Faďīkh, the graves of the martyrs, nor the Mosque of Aḥzāb which is the Mosque of Fatḥ.
