The Ziyārah of Ĥusain عليه السلام Erases Sins

6 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبَانٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أُورَمَةَ عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا الْمُؤْمِنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَحْيَى الْكَاهِلِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَكُونَ فِي كَرَامَةِ اللَّهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَ فِي شَفَاعَةِ مُحَمَّدٍ (ص) فَلْيَكُنْ لِلْحُسَيْنِ زَائِراً يَنَالُ مِنَ اللَّهِ الْفَضْلَ وَ الْكَرَامَةَ [أَفْضَلَ الْكَرَامَةِ] وَ حُسْنَ الثَّوَابِ وَ لَا يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ ذَنْبٍ عَمِلَهُ فِي حَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَ لَوْ كَانَتْ ذُنُوبُهُ عَدَدَ رَمْلِ عَالِجٍ وَ جِبَالِ تِهَامَةَ وَ زَبَدِ الْبَحْرِ إِنَّ الْحُسَيْنَ (ع) قُتِلَ مَظْلُوماً مُضْطَهَداً نَفْسُهُ عَطْشَاناً هُوَ وَ أَهْلُ بَيْتِهِ وَ أَصْحَابُهُ
6. My father narrated to me from Ḥusain ibn Ḥasan ibn Abān, from Muḥamamd ibn Ūramah, from Abī ‘Abdillāh Zakarriyā Al-Mu`min, from ‘Abdillāh ibn Yaḥyā Al-Kāhili, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام) said: Those who want to be honoured by Allāh and to be included in the intercession of Muḥammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم on the Day of Judgment should go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain عليه السلام. (By doing so) Allāh will honour them with the best of honours and rewards and He will not question them for any sins they have committed during their life, even if they are as great (in number) as the grains of sand, the scum in the seas, or the mountains of Tihāmah. Verily Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali عليه السلام was wronged and killed unjustly while he, his family, and his companions were thirsty.
