10 وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ الْعَمْرَكِيِّ بْنِ الْبُوفَكِيِّ عَمَّنْ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْفَضْلِ عَنْ أَبِي رَبَابٍ [رِئَابٍ] قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) عَنْ زِيَارَةِ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) قَالَ نَعَمْ تَعْدِلُ عُمْرَةً وَ لَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَتَخَلَّفَ عَنْهُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ أَرْبَعِ سِنِينَ
10. A group of our companions narrated to me from Aḥmad ibn Idrīs, and from Muḥammad ibn Yaḥyā Al-‘Aťťār, from ‘Amraki ibn Al-Būfaki, from someone who narrated to him, from Muḥammad ibn Fuďayl, from Abī Rabāb, who said: I asked Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام) about (the reward for) going to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain عليه السلام. Imam عليه السلام said, “It is equal to performing an ‘Umrah, and one is not permitted to stay away from it for longer than four years.”
