Different Ways in Which the Angels Honour Those Who Go to the Ziyārah of Ĥusain عليه السلام Knowing His Rights
8 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي وَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ره جَمِيعاً عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ أَخِيهِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ أَبِي الْقَاسِمِ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ خَارِجَةَ قَالَ سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) وَ أَنَا عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ مَا لِمَنْ زَارَ قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) قَالَ إِنَّ الْحُسَيْنَ (ع) لَمَّا أُصِيبَ بَكَتْهُ حَتَّى الْبِلَادُ فَوَكَّلَ اللَّهُ بِهِ أَرْبَعَةَ آلَافِ مَلَكٍ شُعْثاً غُبْراً يَبْكُونَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ فَمَنْ زَارَهُ عَارِفاً بِحَقِّهِ شَيَّعُوهُ حَتَّى يُبْلِغُوهُ مَأْمَنَهُ وَ إِنْ مَرِضَ عَادُوهُ غُدْوَةً وَ عَشِيَّةً وَ إِنْ مَاتَ شَهِدُوا جِنَازَتَهُ وَ اسْتَغْفَرُوا لَهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ
8. My father and Muḥammad ibn ‘Abdillāh both narrated to me from ‘Abdillāh ibn Ja’far Al-Ḥimyari, from Ibrāhīm ibn Mahziyār, from his brother ‘Ali ibn Mahziyār, from Abil Qāsim, from Qāsim ibn Muḥammad, from Isḥāq ibn Ibrāhīm, from Hārūn ibn Khārijah, who said: I was with Abī ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq عليه السلام) when a man asked him, “What is the reward for those who go to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain عليه السلام?” Imam عليه السلام replied: Verily when Ḥusain عليه السلام was assaulted, even the lands cried over him. Therefore, Allāh dedicated four thousand angels, who are disheveled and covered with dust, who cry over him (and will continue to do so) until the Day of Judgment. These angels accompany those who go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain عليه السلام, while knowing his rights, until they arrive at their safe haven. And if they become ill, the angels will visit them every morning and evening. And when they die, these angels will attend their funerals and seek forgiveness for them until the Day of Judgment.
