The Reward for the Ziyārah of Ĥusain عليه السلام Is Equal to the Reward for Performing a Hajj and an ‘Umrah

4 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ره وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْوَشَّاءِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَائِذٍ عَنْ أَبِي خَدِيجَةَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ سَأَلَ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ (ع) عَنْ زِيَارَةِ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ تَعْدِلُ حِجَّةً وَ عُمْرَةً وَ قَالَ بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا مِنَ الْخَيْرِ يَقُولُ بِجَمِيعِ يَدَيْهِ هَكَذَا
4. My father and ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain both narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali Al-Washā, from Aḥmad ibn ‘Ā`idh, from Abī Khadījah, who said: A man asked Abā Ja’far (Imam Bāqir عليه السلام) about going to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain عليه السلام. Imam عليه السلام replied, “It is equal to one Hajj and one ‘Umrah and this much – he stretched open his arms – rewards.”
