The Reward for the Ziyārah of Ĥusain عليه السلام Is Equal to the Reward of Performing a Hajj
3 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي (رحمه الله) عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ عَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الْأَنْبَارِيُّ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ كُلَّ سَنَةٍ يَتَهَيَّأُ لِي مَا أَخْرُجُ بِهِ إِلَى الْحَجِّ فَقَالَ إِذَا أَرَدْتَ الْحَجَّ وَ لَمْ يَتَهَيَّأْ لَكَ فَائْتِ قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) فَإِنَّهَا تُكْتَبُ لَكَ حِجَّةٌ وَ إِذَا أَرَدْتَ الْعُمْرَةَ وَ لَمْ يَتَهَيَّأْ لَكَ فَأْتِ قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) فَإِنَّهَا تُكْتَبُ لَكَ عُمْرَةٌ
3. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Mughīrah, from ‘Abbās ibn ‘Āmir, from ‘Abdillāh ibn ‘Ubayd Al-Anbāri, who said: I said to Abī ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام), “May I sacrifice myself for you! I do not have the means to go to Hajj every year.” Imam عليه السلام replied: If you ever wanted to go to Hajj but did not have the means (to do so), go to (the Ziyārah of) the grave of Ḥusain عليه السلام, for verily it will be registered as a Hajj for you. And if you ever wanted to go for ‘Umrah but did not have the means (to do so), go to (the Ziyārah of) the grave of Ḥusain عليه السلام, for verily it will be registered as an ‘Umrah for you.
