Different Ways in Which the Angels Honour Those Who Go to the Ziyārah of Ĥusain عليه السلام Knowing His Rights

6 حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ الْوَلِيدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَكَّلَ بِقَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) أَرْبَعَةَ آلَافِ مَلَكٍ شُعْثاً غُبْراً فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَبْكُونَهُ مِنْ طُلُوعِ الْفَجْرِ إِلَى زَوَالِ الشَّمْسِ فَإِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ هَبَطَ أَرْبَعَةُ آلَافِ مَلَكٍ وَ صَعِدَ أَرْبَعَةُ آلَافِ مَلَكٍ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَبْكُونَهُ حَتَّى يَطْلُعَ الْفَجْرُ وَ يَشْهَدُونَ لِمَنْ زَارَهُ وَ يُشَيِّعُونَهُ بِالْوَفَاءِ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ وَ يَعُودُونَهُ إِذَا مَرِضَ وَ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَيْهِ إِذَا مَاتَ
6. Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan ibn Aḥmad ibn Walīd narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan Al-Saffār, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Mughīrah, from ‘Abbās ibn ‘Āmir, from Abān, from Abī Ḥamzah (Al-Thumāli), who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام) said: Verily Allāh has dedicated four thousand angels to the grave of Ḥusain عليه السلام who are disheveled and covered with dust. They cry over Ḥusain عليه السلام from dawn until midday, at which point they ascend to the heavens and they are replaced with another four thousand angels who cry over him until dawn. These angels will testify to the loyalty of those who go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain عليه السلام, will accompany them back to their families, visit them if they become ill, and establish prayers on them when they die.
