Those Who Neglect the Ziyārah of Ĥusain عليه السلام

4 وَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (ع) قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَعْلَمَ أَنَّهُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ فَيَعْرِضُ حُبَّنَا عَلَى قَلْبِهِ فَإِنْ قَبِلَهُ فَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَ مَنْ كَانَ لَنَا مُحِبّاً فَلْيَرْغَبْ فِي زِيَارَةِ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) فَمَنْ كَانَ لِلْحُسَيْنِ (ع) زَوَّاراً عَرَفْنَاهُ بِالْحُبِّ لَنَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ وَ كَانَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ وَ مَنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لِلْحُسَيْنِ زَوَّاراً كَانَ نَاقِصَ الْإِيمَانِ
4. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā, from his father, from Sayf ibn ‘Amīrah, from Abī Bakr Al-Ḥaďrami, who said: I heard Abā Ja’far (Imam Bāqir عليه السلام) say: Those who want to know if they will be among the inhabitants of Paradise should present our love to their hearts. If their hearts accept loving us, then they are believers. And those who love us, should surely desire (going to) the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain عليه السلام. Those who repeatedly go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain عليه السلام are recognized by us as the lovers of us, the Ahlul Bayt عليه السلام, and they will be among the inhabitants of Paradise, whereas the faith of those who do not go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain عليه السلام is incomplete.
