The Chapter of Condolences and Grief During Calamities, Visiting Graves, Lamentation and Mourning Gatherings

وَقَالَ أَبُو اَلْحَسَنِ مُوسَى بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ: «إِذَا دَخَلْتَ اَلْمَقَابِرَ فَطَأِ اَلْقُبُورَ فَمَنْ كَانَ مُؤْمِناً اِسْتَرْوَحَ إِلَى ذَلِكَ وَ مَنْ كَانَ مُنَافِقاً وَجَدَ أَلَمَهُ.
Abu Al-Hasan Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim عليه السلام said: "When you enter the graveyards, step over the graves. Whoever is a believer will find comfort from that, and whoever is a hypocrite will feel its pain."
