Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 1|Book 1|Chapter 46
وَ سَأَلَهُ مَنْصُورُ بْنُ يُونُسَ بُزُرْجَ: عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَتَبَاكَى فِي اَلصَّلاَةِ اَلْمَفْرُوضَةِ حَتَّى يَبْكِيَ فَقَالَ «قُرَّةُ عَيْنٍ وَ اَللَّهِ» وَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «إِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ فَاذْكُرْنِي عِنْدَهُ.
Mansur ibn Yunus Buzurj asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام about a person who strives to cry during the obligatory prayer until tears flow. Imam عليه السلام replied: "It is a source of great joy, by Allah سبحانه وتعالى." The Imam also said: "When this happens, remember me in that moment”.
