CHAPTER 31 – MERIT OF VISITING HIM-asws, MAY THE SALAWAAT OF ALLAH-azwj BE UPON HIM-asws DURING THE DAY OF ASHURA, AND ACTS OF WORSHIP OF THAT DAY, AND MERIT OF ZIYARAT OF ARBAEEN
1- ع، علل الشرائع لي، الأمالي للصدوق الطَّالَقَانِيُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ الْهَمْدَانِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الرِّضَا ع قَالَ: مَنْ تَرَكَ السَّعْيَ فِي حَوَائِجِهِ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ قَضَى اللَّهُ لَهُ حَوَائِجَ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ وَ مَنْ كَانَ يَوْمُ عَاشُورَاءَ يَوْمَ مُصِيبَتِهِ وَ حُزْنِهِ وَ بُكَائِهِ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَوْمَ فَرَحِهِ وَ سُرُورِهِ وَ قَرَّتْ بِنَا فِي الْجِنَانِ عَيْنُهُ
(The books) ‘Ilal Al Sharaie’, (and) ‘Al Amaali’ of Al Sadouq – Al Talaqani, from Ahmad Al Hamdany, from Ali Bin Al-Hassan Bin Fazzal, from his father,
‘Abu Al-Hassan Al-Reza-asws having said: ‘One who neglect the striving regarding his needs on the day of Ashura, Allah-azwj will Fulfil for him needs of the world and the Hereafter; and the one for whom the day of Ashura would be a day of difficulties, and grief, and crying, Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic would Make the Day of Qiyamah a day of happiness and joy, and his eyes will be delighted with us-asws in the Gardens!
وَ مَنْ سَمَّى يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ يَوْمَ بَرَكَةٍ وَ ادَّخَرَ فِيهِ لِمَنْزِلِهِ شَيْئاً لَمْ يُبَارَكْ لَهُ فِيمَا ادَّخَرَ وَ حُشِرَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَعَ يَزِيدَ وَ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ وَ عُمَرَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ لَعَنَهُمُ اللَّهُ إِلَى أَسْفَلِ دَرْكٍ مِنَ النَّارِ.
And one names the day of Ashura as a day of Blessings and stores something for his house during it among what he stores, it will not be a Blessing for him regarding what he stores, and he will be Resurrected on the Day of Qiyamah with Yazeed-la, and Ubeydullah Bin Ziyad, and Umar Bin sa’ad, may Allah-azwj Curse them-la, to the lowest level of the Hellfire!’’[1]
2- ن، عيون أخبار الرضا عليه السلام النَّقَّاشُ وَ الطَّالَقَانِيُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ الْهَمْدَانِيِ مِثْلَهُ.
(The book) ‘Uyoun Akhbar Al-Reza-asws’, may the greeting be upon him-asws – Al Naqqash, and Al Talaqani, from Ahmad Al Hamdani, similar to it.[2]
3- ن، عيون أخبار الرضا عليه السلام لي، الأمالي للصدوق مَاجِيلَوَيْهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ الرَّيَّانِ بْنِ شَبِيبٍ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى الرِّضَا ع فِي أَوَّلِ يَوْمٍ مِنَ الْمُحَرَّمِ فَقَالَ لِي يَا ابْنَ شَبِيبٍ أَ صَائِمٌ أَنْتَ
(The books) ‘Uyoun Akhbar Al-Reza-asws’, may the greeting be upon him-asws, and ‘Al Amaali’ of Al Sadouq – Majaylawiya, from Ali, from his father, from Al Rayyan Bin Shabeeb who said,
‘I entered to see Al-Reza-asws in the first day of Al-Muharram. He-asws said to me: ‘O Ibn Shabeeb! Are you fasting?’
فَقُلْتُ لَا
I said, ‘No’.
فَقَالَ إِنَّ هَذَا الْيَوْمَ هُوَ الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي دَعَا فِيهِ زَكَرِيَّا ع رَبَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَقَالَ رَبِّ هَبْ لِي مِنْ لَدُنْكَ ذُرِّيَّةً طَيِّبَةً إِنَّكَ سَمِيعُ الدُّعاءِ فَاسْتَجَابَ اللَّهُ لَهُ وَ أَمَرَ الْمَلَائِكَةَ فَنَادَتْ زَكَرِيَّا وَ هُوَ قائِمٌ يُصَلِّي فِي الْمِحْرابِ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يُبَشِّرُكَ بِيَحْيى
He-asws said: ‘It is the day in which Zakariya-as had supplicated to his-as Lord-azwj Mighty and Majestic. He-as said: ‘My Lord! Grant me good offspring from You, surely You are the Hearer of the supplication’ [3:38]! Allah-azwj Answered for him-as and Commanded the Angels, so they called out to Zakariya-as: as he stood praying in the Prayer Niche: ‘Allah Gives you the good news of Yahya [3:39]!
فَمَنْ صَامَ هَذَا الْيَوْمَ ثُمَّ دَعَا اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ اسْتَجَابَ اللَّهُ لَهُ كَمَا اسْتَجَابَ لِزَكَرِيَّا ع
So, the one who fasts this day then supplicates to Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, Allah-azwj will Answer it for him just as He-azwj had Answered for Zakariya-as’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا ابْنَ شَبِيبٍ إِنَّ الْمُحَرَّمَ هُوَ الشَّهْرُ الَّذِي كَانَ أَهْلُ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فِيمَا مَضَى يُحَرِّمُونَ فِيهِ الظُّلْمَ وَ الْقِتَالَ لِحُرْمَتِهِ فَمَا عَرَفَتْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةُ حُرْمَةَ شَهْرِهَا وَ لَا حُرْمَةَ نَبِيِّهَا صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ لَقَدْ قَتَلُوا فِي هَذَا الشَّهْرِ ذُرِّيَّتَهُ وَ سَبَوْا نِسَاءَهُ وَ انْتَهَبُوا ثَقَلَهُ فَلَا غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُمْ ذَلِكَ أَبَداً
Then he-asws said: ‘O Ibn Shabeeb! Surely Al-Muharram, it is the month which the people of the Pre-Islamic period in what is past, were prohibiting in it the injustice and the killing, due to its sanctity. But this community did not recognise the sanctity of its month nor the sanctity of its Prophet-saww, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon him-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws! In this month they have killed his-saww offspring, and made captives of his-asws womenfolk, and plundered his-asws belongings. May Allah-azwj not Forgive that for them, ever!’
يَا ابْنَ شَبِيبٍ إِنْ كُنْتَ بَاكِياً لِشَيْءٍ فَابْكِ لِلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع فَإِنَّهُ ذُبِحَ كَمَا يُذْبَحُ الْكَبْشُ وَ قُتِلَ مَعَهُ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا مَا لَهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ شَبِيهٌ وَ لَقَدْ بَكَتِ السَّمَاوَاتُ السَّبْعُ وَ الْأَرَضُونَ لِقَتْلِهِ
O Ibn Shabeeb! If you were to cry for something, then cry for Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, for he-asws was slaughtered just as the ram gets slaughtered, and eighteen men from his-asws family members were killed along with him-asws. There is no resemblance of their in the earth, and the seven skies and the earths had cried at his-asws killing!
وَ لَقَدْ نَزَلَ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ مِنَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ أَرْبَعَةُ آلَافٍ لِنَصْرِهِ فَوَجَدُوهُ قَدْ قُتِلَ فَهُمْ عِنْدَ قَبْرِهِ شُعْثٌ غُبْرٌ إِلَى أَنْ يَقُومَ الْقَائِمُ فَيَكُونُونَ مِنْ أَنْصَارِهِ وَ شِعَارُهُمْ يَا لَثَارَاتِ الْحُسَيْنِ
And four thousand from the Angels had descended to help him-asws, but they found him-asws to have been killed. So, they are (now) at his-asws grave, unkempt, dusty, up to rising of Al-Qaim-ajfj. They will be from his-ajfj helpers, and their slogan would be, ‘O for retaliation of Al-Husayn-asws!’
يَا ابْنَ شَبِيبٍ لَقَدْ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ ع أَنَّهُ لَمَّا قُتِلَ جَدِّيَ الْحُسَيْنُ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ أَمْطَرَتِ السَّمَاءُ دَماً وَ تُرَاباً أَحْمَرَ
O Ibn Shabeeb! My-asws father-asws has narrated to me-asws from his-asws father-asws, from his-asws grandfather-asws that when my-asws grandfather-asws Al-Husayn-asws, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon him-asws, was killed, the sky had rained blood and its soil was red!
يَا ابْنَ شَبِيبٍ إِنْ بَكَيْتَ عَلَى الْحُسَيْنِ ع حَتَّى تَصِيرَ دُمُوعُكَ عَلَى خَدَّيْكَ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَكَ كُلَّ ذَنْبٍ أَذْنَبْتَهُ صَغِيراً كَانَ أَوْ كَبِيراً قَلِيلًا كَانَ أَوْ كَثِيراً
O Ibn Shabeeb! If you were to cry upon Al-Husayn-asws until your tears come to be upon your cheeks, Allah-azwj will Forgive for you every sin you had sinned, whether it was small or big, whether few or more!
يَا ابْنَ شَبِيبٍ إِنْ سَرَّكَ أَنْ تَلْقَى اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ لَا ذَنْبَ عَلَيْكَ فَزُرِ الْحُسَيْنَ ع
O Ibn Shabeeb! If it cheers you to meet Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic and there is no sin upon you, then visit Al-Husayn-asws!
يَا ابْنَ شَبِيبٍ إِنْ سَرَّكَ أَنْ تَسْكُنَ الْغُرَفَ الْمَبْنِيَّةَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ وَ آلِهِ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ فَالْعَنْ قَتَلَةَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع
O Ibn Shabeeb! If it cheers you to dwell in the chamber built in the Paradise, along with the Prophet-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon them-asws, then curse the killers of Al-Husayn-asws!
يَا ابْنَ شَبِيبٍ إِنْ سَرَّكَ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ مِنَ الثَّوَابِ مِثْلَ مَا لِمَنِ اسْتُشْهِدَ مَعَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع فَقُلْ مَتَى مَا ذَكَرْتَهُ يَا لَيْتَنِي كُنْتُ مَعَهُمْ فَأَفُوزَ فَوْزاً عَظِيماً
O Ibn Shabeeb! If it cheers you that there would be Rewards for you like what is for the one who was martyred with Al-Husayn-asws, then whenever you remember him-asws, say, ‘O I wish I was with them, so I would have achieved a mighty victory!
يَا ابْنَ شَبِيبٍ إِنْ سَرَّكَ أَنْ تَكُونَ مَعَنَا فِي الدَّرَجَاتِ الْعُلَى مِنَ الْجِنَانِ فَاحْزَنْ لِحُزْنِنَا وَ افْرَحْ لِفَرَحِنَا وَ عَلَيْكَ بِوَلَايَتِنَا فَلَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا تَوَلَّى حَجَراً لَحَشَرَهُ اللَّهُ مَعَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ.
O Ibn Shabeeb! If it cheers you to be with us-asws in the exalted ranks from the Gardens, then grieve at our-asws grief and be joyful at (what makes) us-asws joyful, and upon you is to be with our-asws Wilayah, for if a man were to befriend a stone, Allah-azwj will Resurrect him with it on the Day of Qiyamah!’’[3]
4- مصبا، المصباحين قل، إقبال الأعمال عَنْ جَابِرٍ الْجُعْفِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: مَنْ بَاتَ عِنْدَ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع لَيْلَةَ عَاشُورَاءَ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مُلَطَّخاً بِدَمِهِ وَ كَأَنَّمَا قُتِلَ مَعَهُ فِي عَرْصَةِ كَرْبَلَاءَ.
(The books) ‘Al Misbaheen’, (and) ‘Iqbal Al Amaal’ – From Jabir Al Jufy,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘One who spends the night by the grave of Al-Husayn-asws on the night of Ashura will meet Allah-azwj on the Day of Qiyamah soaked with his-asws blood, and it is as if he had been killed with him-saww in the plains of Karbala’’.[4]
5- قل، إقبال الأعمال قَالَ شَيْخُنَا الْمُفِيدُ فِي كِتَابِ التَّوَارِيخِ الشَّرْعِيَّةِ رُوِيَ أَنَّ مَنْ زَارَهُ ع وَ بَاتَ عِنْدَهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ عَاشُورَاءَ حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ حَشَرَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى مُلَطَّخاً بِدَمِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع فِي جُمْلَةِ الشُّهَدَاءِ مَعَهُ.
(The book) ‘Iqbal Al Amaal’ – Our Sheykh Al Mufeed said in ‘Kitab Al-Tawareekh Al-Shariya’, ‘It is reported that the one who visits him-asws and spends the night in his-asws presence during the night of Ashura until morning, Allah-azwj the Exalted will resurrect him soaked in the blood of Al-Husayn-asws among totality of the ones martyred with him-asws!’’[5]

(The book) ‘Ilal Al Sharaie’ – From Muhammad Bin Ali Bin Bashar, from Al Muzaffar Bin Ahmad, from Al Asady, from Sahl, from Suleyman Bin Abdullah, from Abdullah Bin Al Fazl who said,
‘I said to Al-Sadiq-asws, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! How come the general Muslims are naming the day of Ashura as a day of Blessings?’
فَبَكَى ع ثُمَّ قَالَ لَمَّا قُتِلَ الْحُسَيْنُ ع تَقَرَّبَ النَّاسُ بِالشَّامِ إِلَى يَزِيدَ فَوَضَعُوا لَهُ الْأَخْبَارَ وَ أَخَذُوا عَلَيْهَا الْجَوَائِزَ مِنَ الْأَمْوَالِ فَكَانَ مِمَّا وَضَعُوا لَهُ أَمْرَ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ وَ أَنَّهُ يَوْمُ بَرَكَةٍ لِيَعْدِلَ النَّاسُ فِيهِ مِنَ الْجَزَعِ وَ الْبُكَاءِ وَ الْمُصِيبَةِ وَ الْحُزْنِ إِلَى الْفَرَحِ وَ السُّرُورِ وَ التَّبَرُّكِ وَ الِاسْتِعْدَادِ فِيهِ حَكَمَ اللَّهُ بَيْنَنَا وَ بَيْنَهُمْ.
He-asws wept, then said: ‘When Al-Husayn-asws was killed, the people of Syria drew closer to Yazeed-la and they fabricated the news for him-la, and they took the awards upon it from the wealth. Among what they had fabricated for him-la was the matter of this day, and that it is a day of Blessing, for the people to turn during it from the alarm, and the crying, and the calamity and the grief, to the joy, and the cheerfulness, and the Blessings, and preparations (of festivities) during it. May Allah-azwj Judge between us-asws and them!’’[6]

‘I entered to see Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws during the day of Ashura. He-asws said to me: ‘They are visitors of Allah-azwj, and it is a right upon the visited that he honours the visitor! One who spends the night by the grave of Al-Husayn-asws, on the night of Ashura will meet Allah-azwj on the Day of Qiyamah soaked in his-asws blood. It would be as if he had been killed with him-asws in his-asws era!’

(The book) ‘Kamil Al Ziyaraat’ – My father and Ibn Al Waleed, both together, from Al-Hassan Mateel, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Abu Hashim Al Ja’fari who said,
‘Abu Al-Hassan-asws sent someone to me during his-asws illness and to Muhammad Bin Hamza. Muhammad Bin Hamza preceded me to him-asws. He informed me that he-asws did not cease saying: ‘Send (someone) to the enclosure! Send (someone) to the enclosure!’
فَقُلْتُ لِمُحَمَّدٍ أَ لَا قُلْتَ لَهُ أَنَا أَذْهَبُ إِلَى الْحَائِرِ
I said to Muhammad, ‘Why didn’t you say to him, ‘I will go to the enclosure?’

Then I entered to see him-asws. I said to him-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! I will go to the enclosure!’

He-asws said: ‘I-asws shall look into that!’

He (the narrator) said, ‘I mentioned that to Ali Bin Bilal. He said, ‘What was he-asws going to do with the enclosure, and he-asws is the enclosure?’

I proceeded to Al-Askar and entered to see him-asws. He-asws said to me: ‘Be seated’, when I wanted to stand (to leave). When I saw him-asws being comforting with me, I mentioned the words of Ali Bin Bilal.
فَقَالَ لِي أَ لَا قُلْتَ لَهُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص كَانَ يَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ وَ يُقَبِّلُ الْحَجَرَ وَ حُرْمَةُ النَّبِيِّ ص وَ الْمُؤْمِنِ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ حُرْمَةِ الْبَيْتِ وَ أَمَرَهُ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَقِفَ بِعَرَفَةَ
He-asws said to me: ‘Did I-asws not say to him that Rasool-Allah-saww used to perform Tawaaf of the House (Kabah), and kiss the (Black) Stone? And the sanctity of the Prophet-saww and the Momin is mightier than sanctity of the House (Kabah), and Allah-azwj had Commanded him-saww to pause at Arafaat.
إِنَّمَا هِيَ مَوَاطِنُ يُحِبُّ اللَّهُ أَنْ يُذْكَرَ فِيهَا فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ يُدْعَى لِي حَيْثُ يُحِبُّ اللَّهُ أَنْ يُدْعَى فِيهَا وَ الْحَيْرُ مِنْ تِلْكَ الْمَوَاضِعِ.
But rather, it is a place Allah-azwj Loves to be mentioned in it, so I-asws loved that he supplicates for me where Allah-azwj Loves to be supplicated in, and the enclosure is from those places!’’[49]
بيان: قوله ع ابعثوا إلى الحائر أي ابعثوا رجلا إلى حائر الحسين ع يدعو لي و يسأل الله شفائي عنده
Explanation – His-asws words: ‘Send (someone) to the enclosure!’, i.e. send someone to the (holy) enclosure of Al-Husayn-asws so he will supplicate for me and ask Allah-azwj to Heal me, in his-asws presence’.

I went out from his-asws presence. Ali Bin Bilal met me. I let him know of what he-asws had said to me and asked him if he could be the man who goes out. He said, ‘The hearing and the obedience, but I am saying he is superior to the (Holy) enclosure when he-asws was at the status of the one in the (Holy) enclosure, and his-asws supplicating for himself-asws is better than my supplicating for him-asws and the (Holy) enclosure!’

I let him-asws, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon him-asws, know of what he said. He-asws said to me: ‘Say to him, Rasool-Allah-azwj is superior to the House (Kabah) and the (Black) Stone, and he-saww used to perform Tawaaf of the House (Kabah) and kiss the (Black) Stone, and for Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted there are spot He-azwj Loves to be supplicated to in these.

(The book) ‘Kamil Al Ziyaraat’ – By chains from Qudama Bin Zaidah, from his father,
‘From Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws, from (Syeda) Zainab Bint Ali-asws, from Umm Ayman who said in a lengthy Hadeeth, from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘Jibraeel-as came and gestured towards Al-Husayn-asws and said: ‘This grandson-asws of yours-asws will be killed among a group of your-asws offspring and People-asws of your-saww Household, and good ones from your-asws community, by the banks of the Euphrates in a land called Karbala.
مِنْ أَجْلِهَا يَكْثُرُ الْكَرْبُ وَ الْبَلَاءُ عَلَى أَعْدَائِكَ وَ أَعْدَاءِ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ فِي الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي لَا يَنْقَضِي كَرْبُهُ وَ لَا تَفْنَى حَسْرَتُهُ وَ هِيَ أَطْهَرُ بِقَاعِ الْأَرْضِ وَ أَعْظَمُهَا حُرْمَةً وَ إِنَّهَا لَمِنْ بَطْحَاءِ الْجَنَّةِ.
From its reason the distress (Karb) and the affliction (Bala) will increase upon your-asws enemies of your-asws offspring during the day in which his distress will not terminate, nor will his regret terminate, and it is the purest spot of the earth, and their mightiest in sanctity, and it is from the plains of Paradise!’’[55]

‘Abu Ja’far-asws said to me: ‘How much (travel distance) is there between you and the grave of Abu Abdullah-asws?’

Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘When you-asws visit Abu Abdullah-asws, visit him-asws while you are grief-stricken, distressed’ – and he continued the Hadeeth up to his-asws words: ‘And ask him-asws the needs, and leave from him-asws and do not take it as a homeland’’.[57]
بيان: لعل النهي عن اتخاذه وطنا محمول على حال التقية و الخوف كما كان الغالب في تلك الأعصار أو على النهي عن التوقف عند القبر لا عن حواليه و جوانبه لئلا ينافي الأخبار السالفة و ما سيأتي من الدعاء للمقام عنده ع في كثير من الزيارات.
Explanation: The prohibition against taking it as a homeland is likely to be understood as relating to times of Taqiyya (dissimulation) and fear, as was common in those eras, or it may refer to the prohibition of settling directly at the grave itself, not around or near it. This is so that it does not contradict the previous narrations and those to come, which include supplications for staying near it (peace be upon him) in many of the visitation texts.

He-asws said to me: ‘Where are you from the clay of the grave of Al-Husayn-asws for there is healing in it from every illness, and security from every fear. When you take it, say this speech, ‘O Allah-azwj!

He-asws said: ‘When you fear a ruler or other than a ruler, do not go out from your house except and the clay of the grave of Al-Husayn-asws is with you. You should say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I have taken it from the grave of Your-azwj Guardian and son-asws of Your-azwj Guardian, and Make it for me a security, and protection for what I fear and what I don’t fear’, for it will repel what he does not fear’.

‘I asked Al-Reza-asws about the clay which can be eaten, the people eat it’.
فَقَالَ كُلُّ طِينٍ حَرَامٌ كَالْمَيْتَةِ وَ الدَّمِ وَ ما أُهِلَّ لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ بِهِ مَا خَلَا طِينَ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع فَإِنَّهُ شِفَاءٌ مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ.
He-asws said: ‘Every clay is prohibited like the dead and the blood, and whatever is sacrificed for other than Allah-azwj with, apart from the clay of the grave of Al-Husayn-asws, for it is a healing from every illness’’.[69]

(The book) ‘Ilal Al Sharaie’ – Ibn Al Waleed, from Al Saffar, from Ali Bin Hassan, from Abdul Rahman Bin Kaseer, from Yahya Bin Abdullah Bin Al-Hassan,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘One who eats the clay of Al-Kufa has eaten flesh of the people because Al-Kufa was a thicket, then it was a graveyard, what is around it’.
وَ قَدْ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ أَكَلَ الطِّينَ فَهُوَ مَلْعُونٌ.
And Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘One who eats the clay, he is accursed!’’[70]

(The book) ‘Kamil Al Ziyaraat’ – Muhammad Al Himeyri, from his father, from Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Muslim, from Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Abdullah Bin Hammad Al Basry, from Abdullah Al Asamma who said, ‘It is narrated to us by Mudlij, from Muhammad Bin Muslim who said,
‘I went out to Al-Medina and I was in pain. It was said to him-asws, ‘Muhammad Bin Muslim is in pain’.
فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيَّ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع شَرَاباً مَعَ الْغُلَامِ مُغَطًّى بِمِنْدِيلٍ فَنَاوَلَنِيهِ الْغُلَامُ وَ قَالَ لِي اشْرَبْهُ فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ لَا أَبْرَحَ حَتَّى تَشْرَبَهُ
Abu Ja’far-asws sent to me a drink with a slave, covered with a towel. The slave gave it to me and said to me, ‘Drink, for he-asws has instructed me that I should not depart until you drink it!’
فَتَنَاوَلْتُهُ فَإِذَا رَائِحَةُ الْمِسْكِ مِنْهُ وَ إِذَا شَرَابٌ طَيِّبُ الطَّعْمِ بَارِدٌ فَلَمَّا شَرِبْتُهُ قَالَ لِيَ الْغُلَامُ يَقُولُ لَكَ مَوْلَايَ إِذَا شَرِبْتَ فَتَعَالَ
I took it. From it was the aroma of musk, and when I drank, it was the tastiest food, cool. When I had drunk it, the slave said to me, ‘My master says to you, ‘When you have drunk, come over!’’
فَفَكَّرْتُ فِيمَا قَالَ لِي وَ مَا أَقْدِرُ عَلَى النُّهُوضِ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى رِجْلٍ فَلَمَّا اسْتَقَرَّ الشَّرَابُ فِي جَوْفِي فَكَأَنَّمَا نَشِطْتُ مِنْ عِقَالٍ فَأَتَيْتُ بَابَهُ فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَصَوَّتَ بِي صَحَّ الْجِسْمُ ادْخُلْ
I thought regarding what he had said to me and I was not able upon the legs before that. When the drink settled in my interior, it was as if I was activated me from stillness. I came to his-asws door. I sought permission to see him-asws. There was a voice to me: ‘The body is healthy, enter!’
فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَ أَنَا بَاكٍ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَ قَبَّلْتُ يَدَهُ وَ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ لِي وَ مَا يُبْكِيكَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ
I entered to see him-asws and I was crying. I greeted unto him-asws and kissed his-asws hand and his-asws head. He-asws said to me: ‘And what makes you cry, O Muhammad?’
فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ أَبْكِي عَلَى اغْتِرَابِي وَ بُعْدِ الشُّقَّةِ وَ قِلَّةِ الْقُدْرَةِ عَلَى الْمُقَامِ عِنْدَكَ أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْكَ
I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! I am crying upon my estrangement and the remoteness of the apartment, and lack of the ability upon the staying with (nearby) you-asws so I can look at you-asws!’
فَقَالَ لِي أَمَّا قِلَّةُ الْقُدْرَةِ فَكَذَلِكَ جَعَلَ اللَّهُ أَوْلِيَاءَنَا وَ أَهْلَ مَوَدَّتِنَا وَ جَعَلَ الْبَلَاءَ إِلَيْهِمْ سَرِيعاً وَ أَمَّا مَا ذَكَرْتَ مِنَ الْغُرْبَةِ فَإِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ فِي هَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا غَرِيبٌ وَ فِي هَذَا الْخَلْقِ الْمَنْكُوسِ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ مِنْ هَذِهِ الدَّارِ إِلَى رَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ
He-asws said to me: ‘As for the lack of ability, it is like that. Allah-azwj has Made our-asws friends and people of our-asws cordiality, and Made the affliction to (get) to them swiftly; and as for what you mentioned of the estrangement, the Momin is a stranger in this world and inverted among the people until he exits from this house (world) to (go) to the Mercy of Allah-azwj!
وَ أَمَّا مَا ذَكَرْتَ مِنْ بُعْدِ الشُّقَّةِ فَلَكَ بِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أُسْوَةٌ بِأَرْضٍ نَائِيَةٍ عَنَّا بِالْفُرَاتِ وَ أَمَّا مَا ذَكَرْتَ مِنْ حُبِّكَ قُرْبَنَا وَ النَّظَرَ إِلَيْنَا وَ أَنَّكَ لَا تَقْدِرُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فَاللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا فِي قَلْبِكَ وَ جَزَاؤُكَ عَلَيْهِ
And as for what you mentioned of the remoteness of the apartment, for you is an example with Abu Abdullah-asws in a land remote from us by the Euphrates; and as for what you mentioned of your-asws love to be near us-asws and the looking at us-asws, and you are not able upon that, so Allah-azwj Knows what is in your heart and will Reward you upon it’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي هَلْ تَأْتِي قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ
Then he-asws said to me: ‘Do you come to the grave of Al-Husayn-asws?’
قُلْتُ نَعَمْ عَلَى خَوْفٍ وَ وَجَلٍ
I said, ‘Yes, (but) upon fear and trepidation!’
فَقَالَ مَا كَانَ فِي هَذَا أَشَدَّ فَالثَّوَابُ فِيهِ عَلَى قَدْرِ الْخَوْفِ فَمَنْ خَافَ فِي إِتْيَانِهِ آمَنَ اللَّهُ رَوْعَتَهُ يَوْمَ يَقُومُ النَّاسُ لِرَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ وَ انْصَرَفَ بِالْمَغْفِرَةِ وَ سَلَّمَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَ زَارَهُ النَّبِيُّ ص وَ مَا يَصْنَعُ وَ دَعَا لَهُ وَ انْقَلَبَ بِنِعْمَةٍ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَ فَضْلٍ لَمْ يَمْسَسْهُمْ سُوءٌ وَ اتَّبَعَ رِضْوَانَ اللَّهِ
He-asws said: ‘Whatever happens in this is severe, so the Rewards in it would be upon a measurement of the fear. The one who fears coming to him-asws, Allah-azwj will Secure his dread on the Day the people will be standing to Lord-azwj of the worlds, and he will leave with the Forgiveness, and the Angels will greet unto him, and the Prophet-saww will visit him, and what he-saww does and supplicates for him-asws, and he will return with bounties from Allah-azwj and Grace untouched by evil, and he will follow the Pleasure of Allah-azwj!’
ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي كَيْفَ وَجَدْتَ الشَّرَابَ
Then he-asws said to me: ‘How did you find the drink?’
فَقُلْتُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكُمْ أَهْلُ بَيْتِ الرَّحْمَةِ وَ أَنَّكَ وَصِيُّ الْأَوْصِيَاءِ لَقَدْ أَتَانِي الْغُلَامُ بِمَا بَعَثْتَ وَ مَا أَقْدِرُ عَلَى أَنْ أَسْتَقِلَّ عَلَى قَدَمَيَّ وَ لَقَدْ كُنْتُ آيِساً مِنْ نَفْسِي فَنَاوَلَنِي الشَّرَابَ فَشَرِبْتُهُ فَمَا وَجَدْتُ مِثْلَ رِيحِهِ وَ لَا أَطْيَبَ مِنْ ذَوْقِهِ وَ لَا طَعْمِهِ وَ لَا أَبْرَدَ مِنْهُ
I said, ‘I testify that you-asws are People-asws of the Household of Mercy, and you-asws as a successor-asws of the successors-asws. The slave had come to me with what you-asws had sent and I was not able upon standing upon my feet, and I had despaired from myself! He gave me the drink. I drank it, and I have not felt any aroma like it, nor any better taste, nor any cooler food than it.
فَلَمَّا شَرِبْتُهُ قَالَ لِيَ الْغُلَامُ إِنَّهُ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَقُولَ لَكَ إِذَا شَرِبْتَهُ فَأَقْبِلْ إِلَيَّ وَ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ شِدَّةَ مَا بِي فَقُلْتُ لَأَذْهَبَنَّ إِلَيْهِ وَ لَوْ ذَهَبَتْ نَفْسِي
When I had drunk it, the slave said to me, ‘He-asws has instructed me to say to you, ‘When you have drunk it, then come to me-asws!’, and I knew of the severity of what was with me. I said, ‘I will go to him-asws and even if my soul departs!’
فَأَقْبَلْتُ إِلَيْكَ وَ كَأَنِّي أُنْشِطْتُ مِنْ عِقَالٍ فَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَكُمْ رَحْمَةً لِشِيعَتِكُمْ
I came to you, and it is as if I have been activated from stillness. So, the Praise is for Allah-azwj Who has Made you-asws as a Mercy for your-asws Shias!’
فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ إِنَّ الشَّرَابَ الَّذِي شَرِبْتَهُ فِيهِ مِنْ طِينِ قُبُورِ آبَائِي وَ هُوَ أَفْضَلُ مَا اسْتُشْفِيَ بِهِ فَلَا تَعْدِلَنَّ بِهِ فَإِنَّا نَسْقِيهِ صِبْيَانَنَا وَ نِسَاءَنَا فَنَرَى فِيهِ كُلَّ خَيْرٍ
He-asws said: ‘The drink which you have drunk had in it from the clay of the graves of my-asws forefathers-asws, and it is the best of what one can heal with. Nothing equates with it. We-asws tend to quench our-asws children and our womenfolk with it. We-asws see all goodness in it!’
فَقُلْتُ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ إِنَّا لَنَأْخُذُ مِنْهُ وَ نَسْتَشْفِي بِهِ
I said to him-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! Can we take from it and heal with it?’
فَقَالَ يَأْخُذُهُ الرَّجُلُ فَيُخْرِجُهُ مِنَ الْحَيْرِ وَ قَدْ أَظْهَرَهُ فَلَا يَمُرُّ بِأَحَدٍ مِنَ الْجِنِّ بِهِ عَاهَةٌ وَ لَا دَابَّةٍ وَ لَا شَيْءٍ بِهِ آفَةٌ إِلَّا شَمَّهُ فَتَذْهَبُ بَرَكَتُهُ فَيَصِيرُ بَرَكَتُهُ لِغَيْرِهِ وَ هَذَا الَّذِي نَتَعَالَجُ بِهِ لَيْسَ هَكَذَا
He-asws said: ‘The man takes it, so he extracts it from the (Holy) enclosure, and he has manifested it. So, no one passes by it from the Jinn having a defect with him, nor an animal, nor anything having a defect, except he smells it, and the Blessings goes and comes to be a Blessing for someone else, and this which we-asws treat with isn’t like this!
وَ لَوْ لَا مَا ذَكَرْتُ لَكَ مَا تَمَسَّحَ بِهِ شَيْءٌ وَ لَا شَرِبَ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ إِلَّا أَفَاقَ مِنْ سَاعَتِهِ وَ مَا هُوَ إِلَّا كَحَجَرِ الْأَسْوَدِ أَتَاهُ أَصْحَابُ الْعَاهَاتِ وَ الْكُفْرِ وَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَ كَانَ لَا يَتَمَسَّحُ بِهِ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا أَفَاقَ
And had it not been for what I-asws have mentioned to you, nothing would touch it, nor would anyone drink from it except he would recover immediately, and it is not except like the Black Stone. There comes to it ones with the disability, and the Kufr, and the Pre-Islamic period (people), and it was such that no one touched it except he recovered!
قَالَ وَ كَانَ كَأَبْيَضِ يَاقُوتَةٍ فَاسْوَدَّ حَتَّى صَارَ إِلَى مَا رَأَيْتَ
He-asws said: ‘And it used to be the whitest ruby, but it darkened until it became what you are seeing (now)’.
فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ وَ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ بِهِ
I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, and how can I deal with it?’
فَقَالَ أَنْتَ تَصْنَعُ بِهِ مَعَ إِظْهَارِكَ إِيَّاهُ مَا يَصْنَعُ غَيْرُكَ تَسْتَخِفُّ بِهِ فَتَطْرَحُهُ فِي خُرْجِكَ وَ فِي أَشْيَاءَ دَنِسَةٍ فَيَذْهَبُ مَا فِيهِ مِمَّا تُرِيدُ بِهِ
He-asws said: ‘You will do with it along with your manifesting it, what others do, taking lightly with it, so you drop it among your dirty things during your going out, and whatever (Blessings) were in it would go away, from what you had intended with it’.
فَقُلْتُ صَدَقْتَ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ
I said, ‘You-asws speak the truth, may I be sacrificed for you-asws!’
قَالَ لَيْسَ يَأْخُذُهُ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا وَ هُوَ جَاهِلٌ بِأَخْذِهِ وَ لَا يَكَادُ يَسْلَمُ بِالنَّاسِ
He-asws said: ‘No one is taking it except and he is ignorant with taking it, and it is almost not safe with the people’.
فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ وَ كَيْفَ لِي أَنْ آخُذَهُ كَمَا تَأْخُذُ
I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, and how can it be for me to take it just as you-asws are taking?’
فَقَالَ لِي أُعْطِيكَ مِنْهُ شَيْئاً
He-asws said to me: ‘Shall I-asws give you something from it?’
فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ
I said, ‘Yes’.
قَالَ فَإِذَا أَخَذْتَهُ فَكَيْفَ تَصْنَعُ بِهِ
He-asws said: ‘When you have taken it, how will you deal with it?’
قُلْتُ أَذْهَبُ بِهِ مَعِي
I said, ‘I shall go with it being with me’.
قَالَ فِي أَيِّ شَيْءٍ تَجْعَلُهُ
He-asws said: ‘And in which thing will you make it to be?’
قُلْتُ فِي ثِيَابِي
I said, ‘In my clothes’.
قَالَ فَقَدْ رَجَعْتَ إِلَى مَا كُنْتَ تَصْنَعُ اشْرَبْ عِنْدَنَا مِنْهُ حَاجَتَكَ وَ لَا تَحْمِلْهُ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَسْلَمُ لَكَ
He-asws said: ‘So you have returned to what you have been doing. Drink your need from it in our-asws presence and do not carry it, for it will not be safe for you!’
فَسَقَانِي مِنْهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَمَا أَعْلَمُ أَنِّي وَجَدْتُ شَيْئاً مِمَّا كُنْتُ أَجِدُ حَتَّى انْصَرَفْتُ.
He-asws quenched me from it twice. I don’t know if I found (felt) anything from what I had been feeling until I left.[71]

He (the narrator) said, ‘I disliked to hand it to the guards and I knew them. When we came to be at Al-Medina, I entered to see Abu Ja’far-asws. I said to him-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws!

When we had dug a measurement of a cubit, there rolled down to us from the head of the grave, something resembling the red sand, a measurement of a Dirham. We carried it to Al-Kufa. We mixed and came and gave the people to be medicating with it’’.[92]

‘From Abu Abdullah-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘I was at Makkah’ – and he mentioned the Hadeeth.
قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ أَصْحَابَنَا يَأْخُذُونَ مِنْ طِينِ الْحُسَيْنِ يَسْتَشْفُونَ بِهِ هَلْ فِي ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ مِمَّا يَقُولُونَ مِنَ الشِّفَاءِ
I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! I have seen our companions taking from the clay of Al-Husayn-asws healing with it. Is there any healing in that something from what they are saying?’
قَالَ قَالَ يُسْتَشْفَى بِمَا بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ الْقَبْرِ عَلَى رَأْسِ أَرْبَعَةِ أَمْيَالٍ وَ كَذَلِكَ طِينُ قَبْرِ جَدِّي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ كَذَلِكَ طِينُ قَبْرِ الْحَسَنِ وَ عَلِيٍّ وَ مُحَمَّدٍ
He (the narrator) said, ‘He-asws said: ‘Healing is sought from the space between it and the grave within a distance of four miles. Likewise, is the clay from the grave of my-asws grandfather-saww Rasool-Allah-saww, and like is the clay from the graves Al-Hassan-asws, and Ali-asws and Muhammad-saww!
فَخُذْ مِنْهَا فَإِنَّهَا شِفَاءٌ مِنْ كُلِّ سُقْمٍ وَ جُنَّةٌ مِمَّا تَخَافُ وَ لَا يَعْدِلُهَا شَيْءٌ مِنَ الْأَشْيَاءِ الَّتِي يُسْتَشْفَى بِهَا إِلَّا الدُّعَاءُ وَ إِنَّمَا يُفْسِدُهَا مَا يُخَالِطُهَا مِنْ أَوْعِيَتِهَا وَ قِلَّةُ الْيَقِينِ لِمَنْ يُعَالِجُ بِهَا
So, take from it, for it is a cure for every illness and a protection from what you fear, and nothing equals it among the things used for healing except the supplication. What corrupts it is what mixes with it from its containers and the lack of certainty in the one who uses it to be treated with it.
فَأَمَّا مَنْ أَيْقَنَ أَنَّهَا لَهُ شِفَاءٌ إِذَا تَعَالَجَ بِهَا كَفَتْهُ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ مِنْ غَيْرِهَا مِمَّا يَتَعَالَجُ بِهِ وَ يُفْسِدُهَا الشَّيَاطِينُ وَ الْجِنُّ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكُفْرِ
As for the one who is certain it is a healing for him when he treats with I, it will suffice him by the Permission of Allah-azwj from something else from what one treats with, and it is spoilt by the Satans-la and the Jinn from the people of Al-Kufr.
مِنْهُمْ يَتَمَسَّحُونَ بِهَا وَ مَا تَمُرُّ بِشَيْءٍ إِلَّا شَمَّهَا وَ أَمَّا الشَّيَاطِينُ وَ كُفَّارُ الْجِنِّ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَحْسُدُونَ ابْنَ آدَمَ عَلَيْهَا فَيَتَمَسَّحُونَ بِهَا فَيَذْهَبُ عَامَّةُ طِيبِهَا وَ لَا يَخْرُجُ الطِّينُ مِنَ الْحَيْرِ إِلَّا وَ قَدِ اسْتَعَدَّ لَهُ مَا لَا يُحْصَى مِنْهُمْ
From them they are wiping with it, and it does not pass by anything except that it smells it. As for the Satans-la and the Kafirs among the jinn, they envy the son of Adam-as for it, so they wipe themselves with it, and much of its fragrance disappears. The clay does not leave the sanctuary except that countless numbers of them have already prepared themselves for it.
وَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا لَفِي يَدَيْ صَاحِبِهَا وَ هُمْ يَتَمَسَّحُونَ بِهَا وَ لَا يَقْدِرُونَ مَعَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ أَنْ يَدْخُلُوا الْحَيْرَ وَ لَوْ كَانَ مِنَ التُّرْبَةِ شَيْءٌ يَسْلَمُ مَا عُولِجَ بِهِ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا بَرَأَ مِنْ سَاعَتِهِ
By Allah-azwj! It is in the hands of its owner while they wipe themselves with it, but they cannot, along with the Angels, enter the sanctuary. If there were any portion of the soil that remained safe, no one would use it for treatment, except that they would be cured instantly.
فَإِذَا أَخَذْتَهَا فَاكْتُمْهَا وَ أَكْثِرْ عَلَيْهَا ذِكْرَ اللَّهِ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ وَ قَدْ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ بَعْضَ مَنْ يَأْخُذُ مِنَ التُّرْبَةِ شَيْئاً يَسْتَخِفُّ بِهِ حَتَّى إِنَّ بَعْضَهُمْ لَيَطْرَحُهَا فِي مِخْلَاةِ الْإِبِلِ وَ الْبَغْلِ وَ الْحِمَارِ أَوْ فِي وِعَاءِ الطَّعَامِ وَ مَا يَمْسَحُ بِهِ الْأَيْدِيَ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ وَ الْخُرْجِ وَ الْجَوَالِقِ
When you take it, conceal it, and frequent upon it the Zikr of Allah-azwj Majestic and Mighty, and it has reached me that some of the ones taking something from the soil taking lightly with it to the extent that some of them are dropping it in the enclosures of the camels and the mules and the donkey, or in a container of food and what food is touched by the hands, and the saddlebag and the sack!
فَكَيْفَ يَسْتَشْفِي بِهِ مَنْ هَذَا حَالُهُ عِنْدَهُ وَ لَكِنَّ الْقَلْبَ الَّذِي لَيْسَ فِيهِ الْيَقِينُ مِنَ الْمُسْتَخِفِّ بِمَا فِيهِ صَلَاحُهُ يُفْسِدُ عَلَيْهِ عَمَلَهُ.
So how can someone of this state seek healing with it in his-asws presence? But the heart having not certainty in it, from the ones who take lightly with what is his well-being in it, spoils his own actions upon him’’.[94]

بيان: قوله ع مسكة مباركة قال الفيروزآبادي المسكة بالضم ما يتمسك به و ما يمسك الأبدان من الغذاء و الشراب و ما يتبلغ به منهما انتهى
Explanation – His-asws words: ‘A Blessed adherent’ – Al-Firozabadi said that ‘Al-Muska’ with the ‘Zamma’ is what is adhered with and what the body holds on to, from the food and the drink, and what is sufficed by them – end.
أقول يحتمل أن يقرأ بالكسر أيضا للإشارة إلى طيب ريحها.
I say, it is also possible to read it with a ‘kasrah’, to indicate the pleasant fragrance it has (of Musk).

(The book) ‘Tahzeeb Al Ahkaam’ – Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Dawood, from his father, from Muhammad Bin Ja’far Al Muwaddib, from Al-Hassan Bin Ali Bin Shueyb,
‘Raising it to one of the companions of Abu Al-Hassan-asws-asws. He said, ‘I entered to see him-asws. He-asws said: ‘Our-asws Shias cannot be needless of four – a ‘Khumrah’ (mat) to pray Salat upon, and a right he can be wearing with, and a toothbrush he brushes teeth with, and a rosary of clay from the grave of Abu Abdullah Al-Husayn-asws wherein are thirty-three beads. When he turns it as a mentioner of Allah-azwj, forty good deeds are written for him with every bead, and when he turns it absent-mindedly playing with it, Allah-azwj Writes for him twenty good deeds’’.[123]
62 وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ قَالَ: كَتَبْتُ إِلَى الْفَقِيهِ أَسْأَلُهُ هَلْ يَجُوزُ أَنْ يُسَبِّحَ الرَّجُلُ بِطِينِ الْقَبْرِ وَ هَلْ فِيهِ فَضْلٌ
And from him, from his father, from Muhammad Al Himeyri who said,
‘I wrote to the jurist (Imam-ajfj) asking him-ajfj, ‘It is allowed for the man to glorify with clay of the grave and is there any merit in it?’
فَأَجَابَ وَ قَرَأْتُ التَّوْقِيعَ وَ مِنْهُ نَسَخْتُ تُسَبِّحُ بِهِ فَمَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ مِنَ التَّسْبِيحِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْهُ وَ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ أَنَّ الْمُسَبِّحَ يَنْسَى التَّسْبِيحَ وَ يُدِيرُ السُّبْحَةَ تكتب [يُكْتَبُ] لَهُ ذَلِكَ التَّسْبِيحُ.
He-ajfj answered, and I read the (Holy) letter, and from it I copied, ‘You should glorify with it. There is nothing from the glorifications superior to it, and from its merit is that the glorifier forgets the glorification and he rotates the rosary, that is written for him as the glorification’’.[124]
63 قَالَ: وَ كَتَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ طِينِ الْقَبْرِ يُوضَعُ مَعَ الْمَيِّتِ فِي قَبْرِهِ هَلْ يَجُوزُ ذَلِكَ أَمْ لَا
He said, ‘And I wrote to him-ajfj asking him-ajfj about clay of the grave being placed with the deceased in his grave, ‘Is that allowed or not?’
فَأَجَابَ وَ قَرَأْتُ التَّوْقِيعَ وَ مِنْهُ نَسَخْتُ يُوضَعُ مَعَ الْمَيِّتِ فِي قَبْرِهِ وَ يُخْلَطُ بِحَنُوطِهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ.
He-ajfj answered, and I read the (Holy) letter, and from it I copied: ‘It can be placed with the deceased in his grave and mingled with his embalmment, if Allah-azwj so Desires’’.[125]
64 أَقُولُ وَ رَوَى مُؤَلِّفُ الْمَزَارِ الْكَبِيرِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الثَّقَفِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ ع قَالَ: إِنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص كَانَتْ سُبْحَتُهَا مِنْ خَيْطِ صُوفٍ مُفَتَّلٍ مَعْقُودٍ عَلَيْهِ عَدَدَ التَّكْبِيرَاتِ وَ كَانَتْ ع تُدِيرُهَا بِيَدِهَا تُكَبِّرُ وَ تُسَبِّحُ حَتَّى قُتِلَ حَمْزَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ فَاسْتَعْمَلَتْ تُرْبَتَهُ وَ عَمِلَتِ التَّسَابِيحَ فَاسْتَعْمَلَهَا النَّاسُ فَلَمَّا قُتِلَ الْحُسَيْنُ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ عُدِلَ بِالْأَمْرِ إِلَيْهِ فَاسْتَعْمَلُوا تُرْبَتَهُ لِمَا فِيهَا مِنَ الْفَضْلِ وَ الْمَزِيَّةِ.
I say, ‘And it is reported by compiler of ‘Al Mazar Al Kabeer’, by his chain from Ibrahim Bin Muhammad Al Saqafy, from his father,
‘From Al-Sadiq Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws having said: ‘Syeda Fatima-asws daughter-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww, her-asws rosary was from a twisted woollen thread with knots corresponding to the number of Takbeers. She-asws would move it with her-asws hand, saying Takbeer and Tasbeeh, until Hamza-asws Bin Abdul Muttalib-as was martyred. Then she began using his-asws soil and made rosaries from it, and people began to use them. When Al-Husayn-asws was martyred, the matter shifted to him-asws, and they began using his-asws soil because of the virtue and distinction it holds’’.[126]
65 وَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ أَبِي الْقَاسِمِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الرِّضَا ع قَالَ: مَنْ أَدَارَ الطِّينَ مِنَ التُّرْبَةِ فَقَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ مَعَ كُلِّ حَبَّةٍ مِنْهَا كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ بِهَا سِتَّةَ آلَافِ حَسَنَةٍ وَ مَحَا سِتَّةَ آلَافِ سَيِّئَةٍ وَ رَفَعَ لَهُ سِتَّةَ آلَافِ دَرَجَةٍ وَ أَثْبَتَ لَهُ مِنَ الشَّفَاعَةِ مِثْلَهَا.
And by his chain from Abu Al Qasim Muhammad Bin Ali,
‘From Abu Al-Hassan Al-Reza-asws having said: ‘One who rotates the clay from the soil (of Al-Husayn-asws), so he says, ‘Glory be to Allah-azwj, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj, and there is no god except Allah-azwj, and Allah-azwj is Greatest’, with each bead from it, Allah-azwj will Write for him six thousand good deeds due to it, and Raise six thousand ranks, and Affirm for him from the healing, similar to it’’.[127]
66 وَ فِي كِتَابِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ أَنَّ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع سُئِلَ عَنِ اسْتِعْمَالِ التُّرْبَتَيْنِ مِنْ طِينِ قَبْرِ حَمْزَةَ وَ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع وَ التَّفَاضُلِ بَيْنَهُمَا
And in the book of Al-Hassan Bin Mahboub – ‘Abu Abdullah-asws was asked about the two soils – from clay of the grave of Hamza-asws and grave of Al-Husayn-asws, and keeps a gap between the two.
فَقَالَ ع السُّبْحَةُ الَّتِي هِيَ مِنْ طِينِ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع تُسَبِّحُ بِيَدِ الرَّجُلِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُسَبِّحَ
He-asws said: ‘The rosary which is from clay of the grave of Al-Husayn-asws glorifies in the hand of a man, from without him glorifying’.
قَالَ وَ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع وَ فِي يَدِهِ السُّبْحَةُ مِنْهَا وَ قِيلَ لَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهَا أَعْوَدُ عَلَيَّ أَوْ قَالَ أَخَفُّ عَلَيَ.
He (the narrator) said, ‘And he said, ‘I saw Abu Abdullah-asws and in his-asws hand was the rosary from it, and it was said to him regarding that. He-asws said: ‘It is consoling upon me-asws’ – or said: ‘Is lightening upon me-asws’’.[128]
بيان: قوله في ذلك أي سئل لم اختار طين قبر الحسين ع على طين حمزة فأجاب بكونها أعود من العادة أو العود مع فقده أو كونها أخف تقية.
Explanation: His words: ‘Regarding that’ means he-asws was asked why he-asws chose the clay of the grave of Al-Husayn-asws over the clay of Hamza-asws, so he-asws answered that it is more consoling, whether in terms of habit, or return when it is absent, or that it is lighter in terms of Taqiyya (dissimulation).
67 وَ قَالَ أَيْضاً فِي الْمَزَارِ الْكَبِيرِ وَ رُوِيَ أَنَّ الْحُورَ الْعِينَ إِذَا أَبْصَرْنَ بِوَاحِدٍ مِنَ الْأَمْلَاكِ يَهْبِطُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ لِأَمْرٍ مَا يَسْتَهْدِينَ مِنْهُ السُّبَحَ وَ التُّرْبَةَ مِنْ طِينِ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع.
And he said as well in ‘Mazar Al-Kabeer’ – ‘And it is reported that the Maiden Houries, when they see one of the Angels descending to the earth for a matter, they seek a gift from him of the rosary and the soil from clay of the grave of Al-Husayn-asws’’.[129]
68 وَ رُوِيَ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: السُّبَحُ الزُّرْقُ فِي أَيْدِي شِيعَتِنَا مِثْلُ الْخُيُوطِ الزُّرْقِ فِي أَكْسِيَةِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَوْحَى إِلَى مُوسَى أَنْ مُرْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنْ يَجْعَلُوا فِي أَرْبَعَةِ جَوَانِبِ أَكْسِيَتِهِمُ الْخُيُوطَ الزُّرْقَ وَ يَذْكُرُونَ بِهَا إِلَهَ السَّمَاءِ.
And it is reported from Al-Sadiq-asws, he-asws said: ‘The blue rosary in the hands of our Shias is like the blue threads in the garments of the children of Israel. Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic had Revealed to Musa-as to instruct the children of Israel to make blue threads to be in four sides of their garments, and by it they should remember God-azwj of the sky!’’[130]
بيان: الظاهر كون حبات السبح زرقا و يحتمل أن يكون المراد كون خيطها كذلك كما قيل.
Explanation – The apparent is the beads of the rosary being blue, and it is possible that the intended could be its thread being blue like that, just as it has been said.
69 مصبا، المصباحين رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جُمْهُورٍ الْعَمِّيُّ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ قَالَ: سُئِلَ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الطِّينِ الْأَرْمَنِيِّ يُؤْخَذُ لِلْكَسِيرِ أَ يَحِلُّ أَخْذُهُ
(The book) ‘Al Misbaheen’ – It is reported by Muhammad Bin Jamhour Al Ammy, from one of his companions who said,
‘Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws was asked about the Armenian clay taken for the broken (bones), ‘Is it Permissible to take it?’
قَالَ لَا بَأْسَ بِهِ أَمَا إِنَّهُ مِنْ طِينِ قَبْرِ ذِي الْقَرْنَيْنِ وَ طِينُ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع خَيْرٌ مِنْهُ.
He-asws said: ‘There is no problem with it. But, it is from the clay of the grave of Zulqarnayn-as, and clay of the grave of Al-Husayn-asws is better than it’’.[131]
70 مصبا، المصباحين رَوَى يُونُسُ بْنُ ظَبْيَانَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: طِينُ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع شِفَاءٌ مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ فَإِذَا أَكَلْتَ مِنْهُ فَقُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ بِاللَّهِ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ رِزْقاً وَاسِعاً وَ عِلْماً نَافِعاً وَ شِفَاءً مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ إِنَّكَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
(The book) ‘Al Misbaheen’ – It is reported by Yunus Bin Zabyan,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Clay of the grave of Al-Husayn-asws is healing from every illness. When you eat from it, say, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj, and by Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! Make is a vast sustenance, and beneficial knowledge, and healing from every illness, You-azwj are Able upon all things!
اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ التُّرْبَةِ الْمُبَارَكَةِ وَ رَبَّ الْوَصِيِّ الَّذِي وَارَتْهُ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اجْعَلْ هَذَا الطِّينَ شِفَاءً مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ وَ أَمَاناً مِنْ كُلِّ خَوْفٍ.
O Allah-azwj! Lord-azwj of the Blessed soil, and Lord-azwj of the successor-asws it covers! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and Make for us this clay as healing from every illness and security from every fear’’.[132]
71 مصبا، المصباحين رَوَى حَنَانُ بْنُ سَدِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: مَنْ أَكَلَ مِنْ طِينِ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ غَيْرَ مُسْتَشْفٍ بِهِ فَكَأَنَّمَا أَكَلَ مِنْ لُحُومِنَا فَإِذَا احْتَاجَ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى الْأَكْلِ مِنْهُ لِيَسْتَشْفِيَ بِهِ
(The book) ‘Al Misbaheen’ – Hanan Bin Sadeyr, from his father,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws, he-asws said: ‘One who eats from the clay of the grave of Al-Husayn-asws without seeking healing from it, it is as if he has eaten from our-asws flesh! Whenever One of you is needy to eating from it, let him seek healing with it.
فَلْيَقُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ بِاللَّهِ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ هَذِهِ التُّرْبَةِ الْمُبَارَكَةِ الطَّاهِرَةِ وَ رَبَّ النُّورِ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَ فِيهِ وَ رَبَّ الْجَسَدِ الَّذِي سَكَنَ فِيهِ وَ رَبَّ الْمَلَائِكَةِ الْمُوَكَّلِينَ بِهِ اجْعَلْهُ لِي شِفَاءً مِنْ دَاءِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا
Let him say, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj and by Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of this Blessed soil, the clean, and Lord-azwj of the Noor which He-azwj Sent down in it, and Lord-azwj of the body which is settled in it, and Lord-azwj of the Angels Allocated with it! Make it healing for me from such and such an illness!
وَ اجْرَعْ مِنَ الْمَاءِ جُرْعَةً خَلْفَهُ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ رِزْقاً وَاسِعاً وَ عِلْماً نَافِعاً وَ شِفَاءً مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ وَ سُقْمٍ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى يَدْفَعُ بِهَا كُلَّ مَا تَجِدُ مِنَ السُّقْمِ وَ الْهَمِّ وَ الْغَمِّ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ.
And gulp from the water a sip after it and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Make it vast sustenance, and beneficial knowledge, and healing from every illness and sickness!’ – Allah-azwj will Repel due to it all what he feels from the sickness, and the worries, and the sadness, if Allah-azwj so Desires!’’[133]
صبا، مصباح الزائر عَنْهُ ع مِثْلَهُ.
(The book) ‘Misbah Al Zaair’ – from him-asws, similar to it.[134]
73 صبا، مصباح الزائر مصبا، المصباحين رُوِيَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ الصَّادِقَ ع فَقَالَ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُكَ تَقُولُ إِنَّ تُرْبَةَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع مِنَ الْأَدْوِيَةِ الْمُفْرَدَةِ وَ إِنَّهَا لَا تَمُرُّ بِدَاءٍ إِلَّا هَضَمَتْهُ
(The books) ‘Misbah Al-Zaair’, (and) ‘Misbah Al-Zaair’ – A man asked Al-Sadiq-asws. He said, ‘I heard you-asws saying that the soil of Al-Husayn is from the singular remedies and it does not pass by any illness except it dissolves it’.
فَقَالَ قَدْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ أَوْ قَدْ قُلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَمَا بَالُكَ
He said, ‘That has happened!’ Or said: ‘I-asws have said that, so what is the matter with you?’
قَالَ إِنِّي تَنَاوَلْتُهَا فَمَا انْتَفَعْتُ
He said, ‘I did take it but I did not benefit!’
قَالَ ع أَمَا إِنَّ لَهَا دُعَاءً فَمَنْ تَنَاوَلَهَا وَ لَمْ يَدْعُ بِهِ لَمْ يَكَدْ يَنْتَفِعُ بِهَا
He-asws said: ‘But, there is a supplication for it. Then one who takes it and does not supplicate with it will almost not benefit with it’.
فَقَالَ لَهُ مَا أَقُولُ إِذَا تَنَاوَلْتُهَا
He-asws said to him: ‘What should I say when I take it?’
قَالَ تُقَبِّلُهَا قَبْلَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَ تَضَعُهَا عَلَى عَيْنَيْكَ وَ لَا تَنَاوَلْ مِنْهَا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ حِمَّصَةٍ فَإِنَّ مَنْ تَنَاوَلَ مِنْهَا أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَكَأَنَّمَا أَكَلَ مِنْ لُحُومِنَا وَ دِمَائِنَا
He-asws said: ‘You should kiss it before all things, and place it upon your eyes, and do not take from it more than (measurement of) a chickpea. The one takes from it more than that, it is as if he has eaten from our-asws flesh and our blood!
فَإِذَا تَنَاوَلْتَ فَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ الْمَلَكِ الَّذِي قَبَضَهَا وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ النَّبِيِّ الَّذِي خَزَنَهَا وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ الْوَصِيِّ الَّذِي حَلَّ فِيهَا أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَهُ شِفَاءً مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ وَ أَمَاناً مِنْ كُلِّ خَوْفٍ وَ حِفْظاً مِنْ كُلِّ سُوءٍ
When you take, so say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by the right of the Angel who grasped it, and I ask You-azwj by the right of the Prophet-saww who treasured it, and I ask You-azwj by the right of the successor-asws who is settled in it, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Make it a healing from every illness and security from every fear, and a protection from every evil!’
فَإِذَا قُلْتَ ذَلِكَ فَاشْدُدْهَا فِي شَيْءٍ وَ اقْرَأْ عَلَيْهَا سُورَةَ إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ فَإِنَّ الدُّعَاءَ الَّذِي تَقَدَّمَ لِأَخْذِهَا هُوَ الِاسْتِئذَانُ عَلَيْهَا وَ قِرَاءَةُ إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ خَتْمُهَا.
When you have said that, tie it in something and read upon it Surah Al Qadr, for the supplication which has preceded is for taking it. It is seeking of the Permission upon (eating it), and reading Surah Al Qadr seals it’’.[135]

78 دَعَوَاتُ الرَّاوَنْدِيِّ، رُوِيَ أَنَّهُ لَمَّا حُمِلَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ ع إِلَى يَزِيدَ لَعَنَهُ اللَّهُ هَمَّ بِضَرْبِ عُنُقِهِ فَوَقَّفَهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَ هُوَ يُكَلِّمُهُ لِيَسْتَنْطِقَهُ بِكَلِمَةٍ يُوجِبُ بِهَا قَتْلَهُ وَ عَلِيٌّ ع يُجِيبُهُ حَسَبَ مَا يُكَلِّمُهُ وَ فِي يَدِهِ سُبْحَةٌ صَغِيرَةٌ يُدِيرُهَا بِأَصَابِعِهِ وَ هُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ
(The book) ‘Dawat Al Rawandy’ –
‘When Ali Bin Al-Husayn-asws was carried to Yazeed-la, may Allah-azwj Curse him-la, he-la thought of striking his-asws neck off. He-la had him-asws stand in front of him-asws and he-la in order to get him-asws to speak with a speech obligating his-asws killing by it, and Ali-asws was answering him-la in accordance to what he-la spoke, and in his-asws had was a small rosary he-asws was rotating it while he-asws was talking.
فَقَالَ لَهُ يَزِيدُ أُكَلِّمُكَ وَ أَنْتَ تُجِيبُنِي وَ تُدِيرُ أَصَابِعَكَ بِسُبْحَةٍ فِي يَدِكَ فَكَيْفَ يَجُوزُ ذَلِكَ
Yazeed-la said to him-asws, ‘I-la am talking to you-asws and you-asws are answering me-asws and you-asws are rotating your-asws fingers with a rosary in your-asws hand! How can that be allowed?’
فَقَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ جَدِّي أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا صَلَّى الْغَدَاةَ وَ انْفَتَلَ لَا يَتَكَلَّمُ حَتَّى يَأْخُذَ سُبْحَةً بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَيَقُولَ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَصْبَحْتُ أُسَبِّحُكَ وَ أُمَجِّدُكَ وَ أُحَمِّدُكَ وَ أُهَلِّلُكَ بِعَدَدِ مَا أُدِيرُ بِهِ سُبْحَتِي
He-asws said: ‘It is narrated to me-asws from my-asws grandfather-asws, it was so that whenever he-saww prayed the morning Salat and finished, he-saww would not talk to anyone until he-saww had taken a rosary before it. He-saww would say: ‘O Allah-azwj! I-saww come to a morning, I-saww glorify You-azwj, and exalt You-azwj, and praise You-azwj, and extol Your-azwj Oneness by the number of what I rotate my rosary with’.
وَ يَأْخُذُ السُّبْحَةَ وَ يُدِيرُهَا وَ هُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِمَا يُرِيدُ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ بِالتَّسْبِيحِ وَ ذَكَرَ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ مُحْتَسَبٌ لَهُ وَ هُوَ حِرْزٌ إِلَى أَنْ يَأْوِيَ إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ
And he-saww would take the rosary and rotate it while he-saww would talk with whatever he-saww wanted, from without talking with the glorification, and he-saww mentioned that would be calculated for him-saww, and it is a protection until he-saww shelters to his-saww bed.
فَإِذَا أَوَى إِلَى فِرَاشِهِ قَالَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ الْقَوْلِ وَ وَضَعَ سُبْحَتَهُ تَحْتَ رَأْسِهِ فَهِيَ مَحْسُوبَةٌ لَهُ مِنَ الْوَقْتِ إِلَى الْوَقْتِ فَفَعَلْتُ هَذَا اقْتِدَاءً بِجَدِّي
When he-saww sheltered to his-saww bed, he-saww said similar to that word, and placed his-saww rosary beneath his-saww head, so it glorified for him-saww from the time to time. So, I-asws have done that following my-asws grandfather-saww’.
فَقَالَ لَهُ يَزِيدُ لَسْتُ أُكَلِّمُ أَحَداً مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا وَ يُجِيبُنِي بِمَا يَعُودُ بِهِ وَ عَفَا عَنْهُ وَ وَصَلَهُ وَ أَمَرَ بِإِطْلَاقِهِ.
Yazeed-la said to him-asws, ‘I-la do not speak to any of you-asws except and he-asws answers me-la with what he-asws can be reconciled with!’ – and he-la let him-asws go, and awarded him-asws, and ordered with his-asws release’’.[140]
79 مصبا، المصباحين صبا، مصباح الزائر قَالَ الصَّادِقُ ع حَنِّكُوا أَوْلَادَكُمْ بِتُرْبَةِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع فَإِنَّهَا أَمَانٌ.
(The books) ‘Al Misbaheen’, (and) ‘Misbah Al Zaair’ –
‘Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘Rub the gums of your children with soil of Al-Husayn-asws, for it is a security!’’[141]
80 صبا، مصباح الزائر يُرْوَى فِي أَخْذِ التُّرْبَةِ أَنَّكَ إِذَا أَرَدْتَ أَخْذَهَا فَقُمْ آخِرَ اللَّيْلِ وَ اغْتَسِلْ وَ الْبَسْ أَطْهَرَ ثِيَابِكَ وَ تَطَيَّبْ بِسُعْدٍ وَ ادْخُلْ وَ قِفْ عِنْدَ الرَّأْسِ وَ صَلِّ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ تَقْرَأُ فِي الْأُولَى مِنْهَا الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً الْإِخْلَاصَ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً الْقَدْرَ وَ تَقْرَأُ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً الْإِخْلَاصَ وَ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً إِذَا جَاءَ نَصْرُ اللَّهِ وَ الْفَتْحُ
(The book) ‘Misbah Al Zaair’ –
‘It is reported regarding taking the soil: ‘When you want to take it, stand at the end of the night and bathe and wear the cleanest of your clothes, and perfume with ‘Su’d’ (a type of fragrance), and entered and pause by the head, and pray four units Salat reading in the first of these Surah Al Hamd once, and Surah Al Ikhlaas eleven times, and in the second Surah Al Hamd once, and Surah Al Qadr eleven times, and read in the third (unit), Surah Al Hamd once and Surah Al Ikhlaas eleven times, and in the fourth Surah Al Hamd once and Surah Al Nasr.
فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَاسْجُدْ وَ قُلْ فِي سُجُودِكَ أَلْفَ مَرَّةٍ شُكْراً شُكْراً ثُمَّ تَقُومُ وَ تَتَعَلَّقُ بِالضَّرِيحِ وَ تَقُولُ يَا مَوْلَايَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ إِنِّي آخِذٌ مِنْ تُرْبَتِكَ بِإِذْنِكَ اللَّهُمَّ فَاجْعَلْهَا شِفَاءً مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ وَ عِزّاً مِنْ كُلِّ ذُلٍّ وَ أَمْناً مِنْ كُلِّ خَوْفٍ وَ غِنًى مِنْ كُلِّ فَقْرٍ لِي وَ لِجَمِيعِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
When you are free, perform Sajdah and say in your Sajdah a thousand times, ‘Thanks! Thanks!’ Then stand and attach with the Shrine and say, ‘O my Master, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! I am taking from your-asws soil with your-asws permission! O Allah-azwj! Make it a healing from every illness, and honour from every humiliation, and security from every fear, and richness from every poverty, for me and for the entirety of the Momineen!’
وَ تَأْخُذُ بِثَلَاثِ أَصَابِعَ ثَلَاثَ قَبَضَاتٍ وَ تَجْعَلُهَا فِي خِرْقَةٍ نَظِيفَةٍ وَ تَخْتِمُهَا بِخَاتَمِ فِضَّةٍ فَصُّهُ عَقِيقٌ نَقْشُهُ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ
And take three grabs with three fingers and make these to be in a clean cloth, and seal it with a silver ring whose stone is of Agate (Aqeeq), its engraving is ‘Whatever Allah-azwj Desires! There is no strength except with Allah-azwj! I seek Forgiveness of Allah-azwj!’
فَإِذَا عَلِمَ اللَّهُ مِنْكَ صِدْقَ النِّيَّةِ يَصْعَدُ مَعَكَ فِي الثَّلَاثِ قَبَضَاتٍ سَبْعَةُ مَثَاقِيلَ لَا تَزِيدُ وَ لَا تَنْقُصُ تَرْفَعُهَا لِكُلِّ عِلَّةٍ وَ تَسْتَعْمِلُ مِنْهَا وَقْتَ الْحَاجَةِ مِثْلَ الْحِمَّصَةِ فَإِنَّكَ تُشْفَى إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّه.
When Allah-azwj Knows from you the sincere intention it rises with you in three handfuls, seven measures that neither increase nor decrease. It lifts every ailment and is used when needed, such as a small amount, and you will be healed, if Allah-azwj Desires!’’[142]
81 وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى يَقْرَأُ فِي الْأُولَى الْحَمْدَ وَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ الْحَمْدَ وَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً الْقَدْرَ وَ يَقْنُتُ فَيَقُولُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ عُبُودِيَّةً وَ رِقّاً لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ حَقّاً حَقّاً لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ وَحْدَهُ أَنْجَزَ وَعْدَهُ وَ نَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ وَ هَزَمَ الْأَحْزَابَ وَحْدَهُ
And in another report – ‘You should read in the first (unit of Salat) Surah Al Hamd, and eleven times Surah Al Kafiroun, and in the second Surah Al Hamad and eleven times Surah Al Qadr, and perform Qunout saying, ‘There is god except Allah-azwj, in worship and servitude! There is no god except truly, truly! There is no god except Allah-azwj Alone, Alone! He-azwj Fulfilled His-azwj Promise and Helped His-azwj servant and Defeated the confederates Alone!

Glory be to Allah-azwj, King of the seven skies and the seven earths, and what is between these, and what is within these; and Glory be to Allah-azwj Lord-azwj of the Magnificent Throne, and may Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws, and greeting be upon the Messengers-as, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of the worlds!’

And he should perform Ruk’u and Sajdah and pray two other units of Salat reading in the first, Surah Al Hamd and eleven times Surah Al Ikhlaas, and in the second Surah Al Hamd, and eleven times Surah Al Nasr, and he should perform Qunout just as he had done in the first two units. Then he should perform Ruk’u and Sajdah, and doe just as he had done previously in the first report’’.[143]

The book ‘Al Ateeq’ of Al Gharwy – ‘When you want to take from the soil to be treated with it and seeking the healing, so you should cry and say, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj, and by Allah-azwj! By the right of this Blessed soil, and by the right of the successor-asws whom it covers, and by the right of his-asws grandfather-saww, and his-asws father-asws, and his-asws mother-asws, and his-asws brother-asws, and by the right of his-asws truthful children, and by the right of the Angels resident by his-asws grave awaiting to help him-asws!

Send Salawaat upon them-asws all and Make for me and for my family and my children, and my brother and my sisters, the healing to be in it from every illness and the security from every fear, and Expand upon us in our sustenance by it, and Make our bodies healthy by it, You-azwj are Able upon all things, and You-azwj are most Merciful of the merciful ones, and may Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-asws and upon his-saww goodly Progeny-asws, and abundant greetings!’
وَ إِنْ شِئْتَ فَقُلْ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ هَذِهِ التُّرْبَةِ وَ بِحَقِّ الْمَلَكِ الْمُوَكَّلِ بِهَا وَ بِحَقِّ مَنْ فِيهَا وَ بِحَقِّ النَّبِيِّ الَّذِي خَزَنَهَا أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ هَذِهِ التُّرْبَةَ أَمَاناً مِنْ كُلِّ خَوْفٍ وَ شِفَاءً لِي مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ وَ سَعَةً فِي الرِّزْقِ إِنَّكَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
And if you like you can say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by the right of this soil, and by the right of the Angel Allocated with it, and by the right of the one in it, and by the right of the Prophet-saww who treasured it, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Make this soil a security from every fear, and healing for me from every illness, and vastness in the sustenance, You-azwj are Able upon all things!’

And if you like you can say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by the right of the wing (of Jibraeel-as) which had grasped it, and the palm which turned it, and the Imam-asws buried in it, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Make the healing to be for me in it, and the security from every fear!’’[144]
83 أَقُولُ رَوَى مُؤَلِّفُ الْمَزَارِ الْكَبِيرِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ الْجُعْفِيِّ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى مَوْلَانَا أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْبَاقِرِ ع فَشَكَوْتُ إِلَيْهِ عِلَّتَيْنِ مُتَضَادَّتَيْنِ بِي إِذَا دَاوَيْتُ إِحْدَاهُمَا انْتَقَضَتِ الْأُخْرَى وَ كَانَ بِي وَجَعُ الظَّهْرِ وَ وَجَعُ الْجَوْفِ
I say, ‘And it is reported by the compiler of ‘Al Mazar Al Kabeer’, by his chain from Jabir Al Jufy who said,
‘I entered to see our master Abu Ja’far Muhammad-asws Bin Ali Al-Baqir-asws. I complained to him-asws of two contradictory illnesses with me. When I treat one of them, the other worsens, and there was with me pain of the back and pain of the abdomen.
فَقَالَ لِي عَلَيْكَ بِتُرْبَةِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع
He-asws said to me: ‘Upon you is with soil of Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws!’
فَقُلْتُ كَثِيراً مَا أَسْتَعْمِلُهَا وَ لَا تُنْجِحُ فِيَّ
I said, ‘I have utilised it many times and was not successful regarding me!’
قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَتَبَيَّنْتُ فِي وَجْهِ سَيِّدِي وَ مَوْلَايَ الْغَضَبَ فَقُلْتُ يَا مَوْلَايَ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ سَخَطِكَ
Jabir (the narrator) said, ‘The anger manifested in the face of my chief and my master. I said, ‘O my master! I seek Refuge with Allah-azwj from Your-azwj annoyance!’
وَ قَامَ فَدَخَلَ الدَّارَ وَ هُوَ مُغْضَبٌ فَأَتَى بِوَزْنِ حَبَّةٍ فِي كَفِّهِ فَنَاوَلَنِي إِيَّاهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي اسْتَعْمِلْ هَذِهِ يَا جَابِرُ
He-asws stood up and entered the room and he-asws was angry. He-asws brought the weight of a seed in his-asws pam and gave it to me. Then he-asws said to me: ‘Use this, O Jabir!’
فَاسْتَعْمَلْتُهَا فَعُوفِيتُ لِوَقْتِي فَقُلْتُ يَا مَوْلَايَ مَا هَذِهِ الَّتِي اسْتَعْمَلْتُهَا فَعُوفِيتُ لِوَقْتِي
I utilised it and recovered immediately. I said, ‘O my master! What is this which I utilised and recovered immediately?’
قَالَ هَذِهِ الَّتِي ذَكَرْتَ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تُنْجِحْ فِيكَ شَيْئاً
He-asws said: ‘This is which you mentioned it was not successful in you of anything!’
فَقُلْتُ وَ اللَّهِ يَا مَوْلَايَ مَا كَذَبْتُ فِيهَا وَ لَكِنْ قُلْتُ لَعَلَّ عِنْدَكَ عِلْماً فَأَتَعَلَّمَهُ مِنْكَ فَيَكُونَ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِمَّا طَلَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ الشَّمْسُ
I said, ‘By Allah-azwj, O my master! I have not lied regarding it, but I said perhaps there is knowledge with you-asws I can learn from you-asws. It would be more beloved to me than whatever the sun emerges upon!’
فَقَالَ لِي إِذَا أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَأْخُذَ مِنَ التُّرْبَةِ فَتَعَمَّدْ لَهَا آخِرَ اللَّيْلِ وَ اغْتَسِلْ لَهَا بِمَاءِ الْقَرَاحِ وَ الْبَسْ أَطْهَرَ أَطْهَارِكَ وَ تَطَيَّبْ بِسُعْدٍ وَ ادْخُلْ فَقِفْ عِنْدَ الرَّأْسِ فَصَلِّ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ تَقْرَأُ فِي الْأُولَى الْحَمْدَ وَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً قُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ
He-asws said to me: ‘Whenever you intend to take from the soul, deliberate to it at the end of the night, and bathe for it with the water of Euphrates, and wear cleanest of your clothes, and perfume with ‘Su’di’ (a scent), and enter and pause by the head. Pray two units Salat reading in the first, Surah Al Hamd and eleven times Surah Al Kafiroun, and in the second Surah Al Hamd once and eleven times Surah Al Qadr.
وَ تَقْنُتُ فَتَقُولُ فِي قُنُوتِكَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ حَقّاً حَقّاً لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ عُبُودِيَّةً وَ رِقّاً لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ وَحْدَهُ أَنْجَزَ وَعْدَهُ وَ نَصَرَ عَبْدَهُ وَ هَزَمَ الْأَحْزَابَ وَحْدَهُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ مَالِكِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ مَا فِيهِنَّ وَ مَا بَيْنَهُنَّ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ ذِي الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ
And perform Qunout and say in your Qunout, ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj truly, truly! There is no god except Allah-azwj for worship and servitude! There is no god except Allah-azwj Alone, Alone! He-azwj Fulfilled His-azwj Promised, and Helped His-azwj servant, and Defeated the confederates Alone! Glory be to Allah-azwj Owner of the skies and whatever is in these and whatever is between these! Glory be to Allah-azwj Possessor of the Magnificent Throne, and the praise is for Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of the worlds!’
ثُمَّ تَرْكَعُ وَ تَسْجُدُ وَ تُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ أُخْرَاوَيْنِ وَ تَقْرَأُ فِي الْأُولَى الْحَمْدَ وَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً إِذَا جَاءَ نَصْرُ اللَّهِ وَ الْفَتْحُ وَ تَقْنُتُ كَمَا قَنَتَّ فِي الْأُولَيَيْنِ ثُمَّ تَسْجُدُ سَجْدَةَ الشُّكْرِ وَ تَقُولُ أَلْفَ مَرَّةٍ شُكْراً
Then perform Ruk’u and Sajdah, and pray another two units Salat, and read in the first Surah Al Hamd, and eleven times Surah Al Ikhlaas, and in the second Surah Al Hamd once and eleven times Surah Al Nasr, and perform Qunout just as you had done in the first two, then do Salad, Sajdah of the thanks and say a thousand times, ‘Thanks, thanks!’

قُلْتُ أَشْيَاءَ أَسْمَعُهَا مِنْ رُوَاةِ الْحَدِيثِ مِمَّنْ سَمِعَ مِنْ أَبِيكَ
I said, ‘Thing I have heard from reporters of the Ahadeeth, from the ones who heard from your-asws father-asws’.
قَالَ أَ فَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ عَنْ أَبِي عَنْ جَدِّي عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع كَيْفَ كَانَ يَصْنَعُ فِي ذَلِكَ
He-asws said: ‘Shall I-asws inform you from my-asws father-asws, from my-asws grandfather Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws, how he-asws used to do regarding that?’
قَالَ قُلْتُ بَلَى جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ
He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘Yes, may I be sacrificed for you-asws!’
قَالَ إِذَا أَرَدْتَ الْخُرُوجَ إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فَصُمْ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ يَوْمَ الْأَرْبِعَاءِ وَ الْخَمِيسِ وَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَإِذَا أَمْسَيْتَ لَيْلَةَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَصَلِّ صَلَاةَ اللَّيْلِ ثُمَّ قُمْ فَانْظُرْ فِي نَوَاحِي السَّمَاءِ وَ اغْتَسِلْ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ قَبْلَ الْمَغْرِبِ ثُمَّ تَنَامُ عَلَى طُهْرٍ فَإِذَا أَرَدْتَ الْمَشْيَ إِلَيْهِ فَاغْتَسِلْ وَ لَا تَطَيَّبْ وَ لَا تَدَّهِنْ وَ لَا تَكْتَحِلْ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَ الْقَبْرَ.
He-asws said: ‘When you intend to go out to Abu Abdullah-asws, fast three days before you go out – the Wednesday, and the Thursday and the day of Friday. When it is evening of the night of Friday, pray the night Salat, then stand and look into areas of the sky and bathe on that night before Al Maghrib. Then sleep upon cleanliness. When you want to walk to him, then bathe and neither apply perfume nor oil, nor Kohl, until you come to the grave’’.[184]

(The book) ‘Kamil Al Ziyaraat’ – Muhammad Bin Ja’far Al Razzaz, from Ibn Abu Al Khattab, from Ibn Abu Najran, from Yazeed Bin Is’haq, from Al-Hassan Bin Atiyya,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘When you enter the (Holy) enclosure, say, ‘O Allah-azwj! This is a site You-azwj have Honoured me with and Ennobled me with! O Allah-azwj! Grant me in it, my desires upon the reality of my Eman with You-azwj and with Your-azwj Rasool-saww!
سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ سَلَامٌ عَلَى مَلَائِكَتِهِ فِيمَا تَرُوحُ بِهِ الرَّائِحَاتُ الطَّاهِرَاتُ لَكَ وَ عَلَيْكَ وَ سَلَامٌ عَلَى مَلَائِكَةِ اللَّهِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ وَ سَلَامٌ عَلَى الْمُسَلِّمِينَ لَكَ بِقُلُوبِهِمُ النَّاطِقِينَ لَكَ بِفَضْلِكَ بِأَلْسِنَتِهِمْ
Greeting be upon you, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww, and greeting be upon His-azwj Angels during what comes with the pure breezes to you-asws and upon you-asws, and greeting be upon the Angels of Proximity of Allah-azwj, and greeting be upon the ones submitting to you-asws with their hearts, the speakers for you-asws with Your-azwj merits with their tongues!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ صَادِقٌ صِدِّيقٌ صَدَقْتَ فِيمَا دَعَوْتَ إِلَيْهِ وَ صَدَقْتَ فِيمَا أَتَيْتَ بِهِ وَ أَنَّكَ ثَارُ اللَّهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ مِنَ الدَّمِ الَّذِي لَا يُدْرَكُ ثَارُهُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ إِلَّا بِأَوْلِيَائِكَ
I testify that you-asws are truthful, a confirmer of truth, and that you-asws were truthful in what you-asws called towards and truthful in what you-asws brought, and that you-asws are the avenger of Allah-azwj on earth for the blood whose revenge cannot be attained except through His-azwj Chosen ones!
اللَّهُمَّ حَبِّبْ إِلَيَّ مَشَاهِدَهُمْ وَ شَهَادَتَهُمْ حَتَّى تُلْحِقَنِي بِهِمْ وَ تَجْعَلَنِي لَهُمْ فَرَطاً وَ تَابِعاً فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ
O Allah-azwj! Make me love their places and their martyrdom so that You-azwj may Join me with them-asws and make me a forerunner and follower of them-asws in this world and the Hereafter!’
ثُمَّ تَمْشِي قَلِيلًا وَ تُكَبِّرُ سَبْعَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ ثُمَّ تَقُومُ بِحِيَالِ الْقَبْرِ وَ تَقُولُ سُبْحَانَ الَّذِي سَبَّحَ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَ الْمَلَكُوتُ وَ قَدَّسَتْ بِأَسْمَائِهِ جَمِيعُ خَلْقِهِ وَ سُبْحَانَ الْمَلِكِ الْقُدُّوسِ رَبِّ الْمَلَائِكَةِ وَ الرُّوحِ
Then walk a little and exclaim seven Takbeer, then stand facing the grave and say, ‘Glory be to the One to Whom belong the Dominion and the Realm, and by Whose Names all of His-azwj Creation declare sanctity! Glory be to the Holy King, Lord-azwj of the Angels and the Spirit!
اللَّهُمَّ اكْتُبْنِي فِي وَفْدِكَ إِلَى خَيْرِ بِقَاعِكَ وَ خَيْرِ خَلْقِكَ اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنِ الْجِبْتَ وَ الطَّاغُوتَ وَ الْعَنْ أَشْيَاعَهُمْ وَ أَتْبَاعَهُمْ
O Allah-azwj! Write me among those who journey to the best of Your-azwj lands and the best of Your-azwj creation! O Allah-azwj! Curse the idols and tyrants, and curse their followers and supporters (see Dua e Sanamay Qureysh for explanations)!
اللَّهُمَّ أَشْهِدْنِي مَشَاهِدَ الْخَيْرِ كُلَّهَا مَعَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِ نَبِيِّكَ اللَّهُمَ تَوَفَّنِي مُسْلِماً وَ اجْعَلْ لِي قَدَماً مَعَ الْبَاقِينَ الْوَارِثِينَ الَّذِينَ يَرِثُونَ الْأَرْضَ مِنْ عِبَادِكَ الصَّالِحِينَ
O Allah-azwj! Let me witness all the scenes of goodness with the Progeny-asws of Your-azwj Prophet-saww! O Allah-azwj! Cause me to die as a Muslim, and Grant me a place among the enduring inheritors, those who will inherit the earth among Your-azwj righteous servants!’
ثُمَّ تُكَبِّرُ خَمْسَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ ثُمَّ تَمْشِي قَلِيلًا وَ تَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي بِكَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَ بِوَعْدِكَ مُوقِنٌ اللَّهُمَّ اكْتُبْ لِي إِيمَاناً وَ ثَبِّتْهُ فِي قَلْبِي اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ مَا أَقُولُ بِلِسَانِي حَقِيقَتَهُ فِي قَلْبِي وَ شَرِيعَتَهُ فِي عَمَلِي اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْنِي مِمَّنْ لَهُ مَعَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع قَدَماً ثَابِتاً وَ أَثْبِتْنِي فِيمَنِ اسْتُشْهِدَ مَعَهُ
Then exclaim fifty Takbeer, then walk a little and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I am a believer in You-azwj and convinced of Your-azwj Promise! O Allah-azwj! Write for me Eman and Affirmation in my heart! O Allah-azwj! Make what I am saying with my tongue to be a reality in my heart and Legislate it in my actions! O Allah-azwj! Make me from the ones having a firm footing for him with Al-Husayn-asws, and Affirm me among the ones martyred with him-asws!’
ثُمَّ كَبِّرْ ثَلَاثَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ وَ تَرْفَعُ يَدَيْكَ حَتَّى تَضَعَهُمَا مَعاً عَلَى الْقَبْرِ ثُمَّ تَقُولُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ طُهْرٌ طَاهِرٌ مِنْ طُهْرٍ طَاهِرٍ طَهُرْتَ وَ طَهُرَتْ لَكَ الْبِلَادُ وَ طَهُرَتْ أَرْضٌ أَنْتَ بِهَا وَ طَهُرَ حَرَمُهَا
Then exclaim three Takbeer and raise your hands until you place them together upon the grave, then say, ‘I testify You-azwj are pure, purified, from a lineage that is pure and purified! You-asws were purified, and the lands were purified for your-asws sake. The ground where you-asws reside is purified, and its sanctuary is purified!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَمَرْتَ بِالْقِسْطِ وَ دَعَوْتَ إِلَيْهِ وَ أَنَّكَ ثَارُ اللَّهِ فِي أَرْضِهِ حَتَّى يَسْتَثِيرَ لَكَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ خَلْقِهِ
I testify that you-asws have instructed with the fairness and called to it, and you-asws are a retaliator of Allah-azwj in His-azwj earth until He-azwj Incites (retaliation) for you-asws from the entirety of His-azwj creatures!’
ثُمَّ ضَعْ خَدَّيْكَ جَمِيعاً عَلَى الْقَبْرِ ثُمَّ تَجْلِسُ فَتَذْكُرُ اللَّهَ بِمَا شِئْتَ وَ تَوَجَّهْ إِلَى اللَّهِ فِيمَا شِئْتَ أَنْ تَتَوَجَّهَ ثُمَّ تَعُودُ فَتَضَعُ يَدَيْكَ عِنْدَ رِجْلِهِ ثُمَّ تَقُولُ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَى رُوحِكَ وَ عَلَى بَدَنِكَ صَدَقْتَ وَ أَنْتَ الصَّادِقُ الْمُصَدَّقُ وَ قَتَلَ اللَّهُ مَنْ قَتَلَكَ بِالْأَيْدِي وَ الْأَلْسُنِ
Then place your cheeks together upon the grave, then be seated and do Zikr of Allah-azwj with whatever you desire to, and supplicate to Allah-azwj regarding whatever you like to supplicate, then repeat and place your hands by his-asws legs, then say, ‘May the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon your-asws soul, and upon your-asws body! You-asws spoke the truth, and you-asws are the truthful, the ratifier, and may Allah-azwj Kill (Destroy) the ones who killed you-asws by the hands and the tongues!’
ثُمَّ تُقْبِلُ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ ابْنِهِ فَتَقُولُ مَا أَحْبَبْتَ ثُمَّ تَقُومُ قَائِماً فَتَسْتَقْبِلُ الْقُبُورَ قُبُورَ الشُّهَدَاءِ فَتَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَيُّهَا الشُّهَدَاءُ أَنْتُمْ لَنَا فَرَطٌ وَ نَحْنُ لَكُمْ تَبَعٌ أَبْشِرُوا بِمَوْعِدِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا خُلْفَ لَهُ اللَّهُ مُدْرِكٌ لَكُمْ وَتَرَكُمْ وَ مُدْرِكٌ لَكُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ عَدُوَّهُ أَنْتُمْ سَادَةُ الشُّهَدَاءِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ
Then come to his-asws son-asws Ali-asws (Al-Akbar). Then stand upright facing the graves, the graves of the martyrs. Say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws all, O martyrs! You are our forerunners, and we are your followers. Rejoice in the Promise of Allah-azwj, which never fails! Allah-azwj will Fulfil His-azwj Promise to you and take vengeance for you, and He-azwj will Make you-asws reach His-azwj enemy on earth! You-asws are chief of the martyrs in this world and the Hereafter!’
ثُمَّ تَجْعَلُ الْقَبْرَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ ثُمَّ تُصَلِّي مَا بَدَا لَكَ ثُمَّ تَقُولُ جِئْتُ وَافِداً إِلَيْكَ وَ أَتَوَسَّلُ إِلَى اللَّهِ بِكَ فِي جَمِيعِ حَوَائِجِي مِنْ أَمْرِ دُنْيَايَ وَ آخِرَتِي بِكَ يَتَوَسَّلُ الْمُتَوَسِّلُونَ إِلَى اللَّهِ فِي حَوَائِجِهِمْ وَ بِكَ يُدْرِكُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَهْلُ التِّرَاتِ طَلِبَتَهُمْ
Then make the grave to be in front of you (in the direction of Kabah)[185]. Then pray Salat whatever comes to you, then say, ‘I have come as a delegate to you-asws and seeking means to Allah-azwj through you-asws regarding the entirety of my needs from matters of my world and my Hereafter! By you-asws the seekers of the means, seek nearness to Allah-azwj regarding their needs, and through you-asws the ascetic people achieve their search (for salvation)!’
ثُمَّ تُكَبِّرُ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ تَكْبِيرَةً مُتَتَابِعَةً وَ لَا تُعَجِّلْ فِيهَا ثُمَّ تَمْشِي قَلِيلًا فَتَقُومُ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ فَتَقُولُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الْوَاحِدِ الْمُتَوَحِّدِ فِي الْأُمُورِ كُلِّهَا خَلَقَ الْخَلْقَ فَلَمْ يَغِبْ شَيْءٌ مِنْ أُمُورِهِمْ عَنْ عِلْمِهِ فَعَلِمَهُ بِقُدْرَتِهِ ضُمِّنَتِ الْأَرْضُ وَ مَنْ عَلَيْهَا دَمَكَ وَ ثَارَكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ
Then exclaim eleven Takbeer consecutively and do not be hasty in it. Then walk a little and stand facing the Qiblah. Say, ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj, the One, the Unique in the Commands, all of them! He-azwj Created the creation, so nothing from their matters is hidden from His-azwj Knowledge! By His-azwj Power, the earth and the ones upon it your-asws blood and your-asws retaliation is guaranteed, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-azwj, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon you-asws!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ لَكَ مِنَ اللَّهِ مَا وَعَدَكَ مِنَ النَّصْرِ وَ الْفَتْحِ وَ أَنَّ لَكَ مِنَ اللَّهِ الْوَعْدَ الصَّادِقَ فِي هَلَاكِ أَعْدَائِكَ وَ تَمَامَ مَوْعِدِ اللَّهِ إِيَّاكَ
I testify that you-asws have from Allah-azwj what He-azwj Promised you-asws of victory and triumph, and that you-asws have from Allah-azwj the truthful Promise regarding the destruction of your-asws enemies and the fulfilment of the Promise of Allah-azwj to you-asws!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مَنْ تَبِعَكَ الصَّادِقُونَ الَّذِينَ قَالَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى فِيهِمْ أُولئِكَ هُمُ الصِّدِّيقُونَ وَ الشُّهَداءُ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِمْ لَهُمْ أَجْرُهُمْ وَ نُورُهُمْ
I testify that the one who follow you-asws, the truthful ones, those Allah-azwj Blessed and Exalted Said regarding them: they are the truthful and the martyrs in the Presence of their Lord. For them would be their Recompense and their Light [57:19]!’
ثُمَّ كَبِّرْ سَبْعَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ ثُمَّ تَمْشِي قَلِيلًا ثُمَّ تَسْتَقْبِلُ الْقَبْرَ وَ تَقُولُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي لَمْ يَتَّخِذْ وَلَداً وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ شَرِيكٌ فِي الْمُلْكِ وَ خَلَقَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ فَقَدَّرَهُ تَقْدِيراً
Then exclaim seven Takbeer. Then walk a little, then face the grave and say, ‘The Praise is for Allah, Who did not Take a son, and there does not happen to be an associate for Him in the Kingdom [17:111] and He Created all things, so He Ordained a Determination (for it) [25:2]!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ دَعَوْتَ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَ إِلَى رَسُولِهِ وَ وَفَيْتَ لِلَّهِ بِعَهْدِهِ وَ قُمْتَ لِلَّهِ بِكَلِمَاتِهِ وَ جَاهَدْتَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ حَتَّى أَتَاكَ الْيَقِينُ
I testify you-asws had called to Allah-azwj and to His-azwj Rasool-saww, and you-asws were loyal to Allah-azwj of His-azwj Pact, and you-asws stood for Allah-azwj with His-azwj Words, and you-asws fought in the way of Allah-azwj until the certainty (death) came to you-asws!
لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً قَتَلَتْكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً خَذَلَتْكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً خَذَلَتْ عَنْكَ
May Allah-azwj Curse the community which killed you-asws, and my Allah-azwj Curse the community which abandoned you-asws, and may Allah-azwj Curse the community which turned away from you-asws!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أُشْهِدُكَ بِالْوَلَايَةِ لِمَنْ وَالَيْتَ وَ وَالتْهُ رُسُلُكَ وَ أَشْهَدُ بِالْبَرَاءَةِ مِمَّنْ بَرِئْتَ مِنْهُ وَ بَرِئَتْ مِنْهُ رُسُلُكَ
O Allah-azwj! I testify to You-azwj with the friendship for the one who had befriended you-asws and befriended Your-azwj Rasool-saww, and I testify with the disavowing from the ones You-azwj Disavowed from and Your-azwj Rasool-saww disavowed from!
اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنِ الَّذِينَ كَذَّبُوا رُسُلَكَ وَ هَدَمُوا كَعْبَتَكَ وَ حَرَّفُوا كِتَابَكَ وَ سَفَكُوا دِمَاءَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِ نَبِيِّكَ وَ أَفْسَدُوا فِي بِلَادِكَ وَ اسْتَذَلُّوا عِبَادَكَ
O Allah-azwj! Curse those who belied Your-azwj Rasools-as who destroyed Your-azwj Kabah (Your-azwj Signs), who altered Your-azwj Book, who shed the blood of the Progeny-asws of Your-azwj Prophet-saww, who corrupted Your-azwj lands, and who humiliated Your-azwj servants!
اللَّهُمَّ ضَاعِفْ لَهُمُ الْعَذَابَ فِيمَا جَرَى مِنْ سُبُلِكَ وَ بَرِّكَ وَ بَحْرِكَ اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنْهُمْ فِي مُسْتَسَرِّ السَّرَائِرِ فِي سَمَائِكَ وَ أَرْضِكَ
O Allah-azwj! Multiply their Punishment in whatever ways they have deviated from Your-azwj way, and from Your-azwj lands and seas! O Allah-azwj! Curse them in the hidden depths of secrets in Your-azwj skies and Your-azwj earth!’
وَ كُلَّمَا دَخَلْتَ الْحَيْرَ فَسَلِّمْ وَ ضَعْ خَدَّكَ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ.
And every time you enter the (Holy) enclosure, greet and place your cheek upon the grave’’.[186]

(The book) ‘Kamil Al Ziyaraat’ – My father, and Ali Bin Al-Husayn, and Ibn Al Waleed, altogether from Sa’ad, from Ibn Isa, from Al Qasim Bin Yahya, from Al-Hassan Bin Rashid, from Al-Husayn Bin Suweyr Bin Abu Fakhta who said,
‘I and Yunus Bin Zabyan and Al-Mufazzal Bin Umar and Abu Salamah Al-Sarraj were seated in the presence of Abu Abdullah-asws, and the speaker was Yunus, and he was our eldest in age. He said to him-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! I tend to attend the gatherings of these people, meaning the children of Abbas (name has been inverted due to Taqiyyah). What should I say?’
قَالَ إِذَا حَضَرْتَهُمْ وَ ذَكَرْتَنَا فَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ أَرِنَا الرَّخَاءَ وَ السُّرُورَ فَإِنَّكَ تَأْتِي عَلَى كُلِّ مَا تُرِيدُ
He-asws said: ‘When you attend and we-asws are mentioned, say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Show us the prosperity and the joy’, so you will be given all what you want’.
فَقُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ إِنِّي كَثِيراً مَا أَذْكُرُ الْحُسَيْنَ ع فَأَيَّ شَيْءٍ أَقُولُ
I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! I frequently mention Al-Husayn-asws, so which thing should I say?’
قَالَ قُلْ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ تُعِيدُ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثاً فَإِنَّ السَّلَامَ يَصِلُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ قَرِيبٍ وَ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ
He-asws said: ‘Say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws, O Abu Abdullah-asws’, repeating that thrice, for the greeting arrives to him-asws from near and from far’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع لَمَّا مَضَى بَكَتْ عَلَيْهِ السَّمَاوَاتُ السَّبْعُ وَ الْأَرَضُونَ السَّبْعُ وَ مَا فِيهِنَّ وَ مَا بَيْنَهُنَّ وَ مَنْ يَتَقَلَّبُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَ النَّارِ مِنْ خَلْقِ رَبِّنَا وَ مَا يُرَى وَ مَا لَا يُرَى بُكَاءً عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِلَّا ثَلَاثَةَ أَشْيَاءَ لَمْ تَبْكِ عَلَيْهِ
Then he-asws said: ‘When Abu Abdullah-asws passed away, he-asws was cried upon by the seven skies and the seven earths, and whatever is within these, and whatever is between these, and the ones turning in the Paradise and the Fire, from creatures of our Lord-azwj, and what is seen and what is not seen. They (all) cried upon him-asws except three things which did not cry upon him-asws!’
قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ مَا هَذِهِ الثَّلَاثَةُ الْأَشْيَاءِ
I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! What are these three things?’
قَالَ لَمْ تَبْكِ عَلَيْهِ الْبَصْرَةُ وَ لَا دِمَشْقُ وَ لَا آلُ عُثْمَانَ
He-asws said: ‘Neither Al-Basra, nor Damascus, nor the progeny of Usman cried upon him-asws’.
قَالَ قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَزُورَهُ فَكَيْفَ أَقُولُ وَ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ
He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! I intend to visit him-asws, so how should I say and what should I do?’
قَالَ إِذَا أَتَيْتَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فَاغْتَسِلْ عَلَى شَاطِئِ الْفُرَاتِ ثُمَّ الْبَسْ ثِيَابَكَ الطَّاهِرَةَ ثُمَّ امْشِ حَافِياً فَإِنَّكَ فِي حَرَمٍ مِنْ حَرَمِ اللَّهِ وَ رَسُولِهِ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ وَ التَّهْلِيلِ وَ التَّمْجِيدِ وَ التَّعْظِيمِ لِلَّهِ كَثِيراً وَ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ ص وَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ حَتَّى تَصِيرَ إِلَى بَابِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع
He-asws said: ‘When you come to Abu Abdullah-asws, bathe upon the banks of the Euphrates, then wear your clean clothes, then walk barefooted, for you are in a sanctuary from the sanctuaries of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww, with the exclamations, and the extollations of Oneness, and the exaltation, and the reverence of Allah-azwj, a lot, and the Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and People-asws of his-saww Household until you come to a door of Al-Husayn-asws.
ثُمَّ قُلْ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حُجَّةَ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنَ حُجَّتِهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا مَلَائِكَةَ اللَّهِ وَ زُوَّارَ قَبْرِ ابْنِ نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ-
Then say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws, O Divine Authority of Allah-azwj, and son-asws of His-azwj Divine Authority! The greeting be upon you O Angels of Allah-azwj and visitors of the grave of a son-asws of Prophet-saww of Allah-azwj!’
ثُمَّ اخْطُ عَشْرَ خُطًا فَكَبِّرْ ثُمَّ قِفْ فَكَبِّرْ ثَلَاثِينَ تَكْبِيرَةً ثُمَّ امْشِ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَهُ مِنْ قِبَلِ وَجْهِهِ وَ اسْتَقْبِلْ وَجْهَكَ بِوَجْهِهِ وَ تَجْعَلُ الْقِبْلَةَ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْكَ ثُمَّ تَقُولُ
Then take ten steps then pause and exclaim thirty Takbeer, then walk until you come from direction of his-asws face, and face your face to his-asws face, and make the Qiblah between your shoulders, then say: –
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حُجَّةَ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنَ حُجَّتِهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا قَتِيلَ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنَ قَتِيلِهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ثَارَ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنَ ثَارِهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وِتْرَ اللَّهِ الْمَوْتُورَ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ
‘The greeting be upon you-asws O Divine Authority of Allah-azwj and son-asws of His-azwj Divine Authority! The greeting be upon you-asws O killed one of Allah-azwj and son-asws of His-azwj killed! The greeting be upon you-asws, O retaliator of Allah-saww and son-asws of his-asws retaliator! The greeting be upon you-asws, O singled one of Allah-azwj in the skies and the earth!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ دَمَكَ سَكَنَ فِي الْخُلْدِ وَ اقْشَعَرَّتْ لَهُ أَظِلَّةُ الْعَرْشِ وَ بَكَى لَهُ جَمِيعُ الْخَلَائِقِ وَ بَكَتْ لَهُ السَّمَاوَاتُ السَّبْعُ وَ الْأَرَضُونَ السَّبْعُ وَ مَا فِيهِنَّ وَ مَا بَيْنَهُنَّ وَ مَنْ يَتَقَلَّبُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَ النَّارِ مِنْ خَلْقِ رَبِّنَا وَ مَا يُرَى وَ مَا لَا يُرَى
I testify that your-asws blood has settled in eternity, the canopies of the Throne shuddered for it, all of creation wept for it, the seven skies and the seven earths and all that is within them and between them wept for it, as well as all who dwell in Paradise and Hell from among the creation of our Lord, and all that is seen and all that is unseen!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ حُجَّةُ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنُ حُجَّتِهِ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ قَتِيلُ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنُ قَتِيلِهِ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ ثَارُ اللَّهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَ ابْنُ ثَارِهِ
I testify you-asws are Divine Authority of Allah-azwj and son-asws of His-azwj Divine Authority, and I testify you-asws are killed one of Allah-azwj and son-asws of His-azwj killed on, and I testify you-asws are a retaliator of Allah-azwj in the earth, and son-asws of His-azwj retaliator!
وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ وِتْرُ اللَّهِ الْمَوْتُورُ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ قَدْ بَلَّغْتَ وَ نَصَحْتَ وَ وَفَيْتَ وَ وَافَيْتَ وَ جَاهَدْتَ فِي سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ وَ مَضَيْتَ لِلَّذِي كُنْتَ عَلَيْهِ شَهِيداً وَ مُسْتَشْهَداً وَ شَاهِداً وَ مَشْهُوداً
And I testify you-asws are a single one of Allah-azwj Singled out in the skies and the earth, and I testify you-asws delivered, and advised, and fulfilled were loyal, and fought in the way of your-asws Lord-azwj, and you-asws passed for which you-asws had been upon, a martyr and one whose martyrdom is sought, and witness and witnessed!
أَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَ مَوْلَاكَ وَ فِي طَاعَتِكَ وَ الْوَافِدُ إِلَيْكَ أَلْتَمِسُ كَمَالَ الْمَنْزِلَةِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَ ثَبَاتَ الْقَدَمِ فِي الْهِجْرَةِ إِلَيْكَ وَ السَّبِيلَ الَّذِي لَا يُخْتَلَجُ دُونَكَ مِنَ الدُّخُولِ فِي كَفَالَتِكَ الَّتِي أُمِرَتْ بِهَا
I am a servant of Allah-azwj and your-asws friend and in your-asws obedience, and the delegate to it seeking the perfect status in the Presence of Allah-azwj, and firm feet in the emigrating to you-asws, and the way which may obstruct, for entering into your protection which I have been Commanded with!
مَنْ أَرَادَ اللَّهَ بَدَأَ بِكُمْ مَنْ أَرَادَ اللَّهَ بَدَأَ بِكُمْ مَنْ أَرَادَ اللَّهَ بَدَأَ بِكُمْ بِكُمْ يُبَيِّنُ اللَّهُ الْكَذِبَ وَ بِكُمْ يُبَاعِدُ اللَّهُ الزَّمَانَ الْكَلِبَ وَ بِكُمْ فَتَحَ اللَّهُ وَ بِكُمْ يَخْتِمُ اللَّهُ وَ بِكُمْ يَمْحُوا اللَّهُ ما يَشاءُ وَ بِكُمْ يُثْبِتُ
One who intends Allah-azwj should begin with you-asws (Imams-asws)! One who intends Allah-azwj should begin with you-asws (Imams-asws)! One who intends Allah-azwj should begin with you-asws (Imams-asws)! Through you-asws Allah-azwj Clarifies the lies, and through you-asws Allah-azwj Distances the times of distress, and through you-asws Allah-azwj Began and through you-asws Allah-azwj will End, and through you-asws Allah-azwj Deletes whatever He-azwj Desires, and through you-asws He-azwj Affirms!
وَ بِكُمْ يَفُكُّ الذُّلَّ مِنْ رِقَابِنَا وَ بِكُمْ يُدْرِكُ اللَّهُ تِرَةَ كُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ يَطْلُبُ وَ بِكُمْ تُنْبِتُ الْأَرْضُ أَشْجَارَهَا وَ بِكُمْ تُخْرِجُ الْأَشْجَارُ أَثْمَارَهَا وَ بِكُمْ تُنْزِلُ السَّمَاءُ قَطْرَهَا وَ رِزْقَهَا وَ بِكُمْ يَكْشِفُ اللَّهُ الْكَرْبَ وَ بِكُمْ يُنْزِلُ اللَّهُ الْغَيْثَ وَ بِكُمْ تُسَبِّحُ اللَّهَ الْأَرْضُ الَّتِي تَحْمِلُ أَبْدَانَكُمْ وَ تَسْتَقِلُّ جِبَالُهَا عَلَى مَرَاسِيهَا

إِرَادَةُ الرَّبِّ فِي مَقَادِيرِ أُمُورِهِ تَهْبِطُ إِلَيْكُمْ وَ تَصْدُرُ مِنْ بُيُوتِكُمْ وَ الصَّادِقُ عَمَّا فُصِّلَ مِنْ أَحْكَامِ الْعِبَادِ لُعِنَتْ أُمَّةٌ قَتَلَتْكُمْ وَ أُمَّةٌ خَالَفَتْكُمْ وَ أُمَّةٌ جَحَدَتْ وَلَايَتَكُمْ وَ أُمَّةٌ ظَاهَرَتْ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ أُمَّةٌ شَهِدَتْ وَ لَمْ تُسْتَشْهَدْ
The Will of the Lord-azwj regarding the Determinations of His-azwj affairs descends to you-asws and proceeds from your-asws houses, and the truthful one about what has been detailed from the rulings concerning the servants. Curses be on the community which killed you-asws, and the community which opposed, and the community which abandoned you-asws, and the community which rejected your-asws Wilayah, and the community which backed each other against you-asws, and the community which witnessed and did not seek martyrdom!
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ النَّارَ مَأْوَاهُمْ وَ بِئْسَ وِرْدُ الْوَارِدِينَ وَ بِئْسَ الْوِرْدُ الْمَوْرُودُ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ
The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who Made the Hellfire their abode, and evil is the arrival of the arriving ones, and evil is the arrival of the arriving ones, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj Lord-azwj of the worlds!’
وَ تَقُولُ ثَلَاثاً صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَا إِلَى اللَّهِ مِمَّنْ خَالَفَكَ بَرِيءٌ أَنَا إِلَى اللَّهِ مِمَّنْ خَالَفَكَ بَرِيءٌ أَنَا إِلَى اللَّهِ مِمَّنْ خَالَفَكَ بَرِيءٌ
And you should say thrice, ‘May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws, O Abu Abdullah-asws! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws, O Abu Abdullah-asws! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws, O Abu Abdullah-asws! I disavow, by Allah-azwj, from the ones who opposed you! I disavow, by Allah-azwj, from the ones who opposed you! I disavow to Allah-azwj from the ones who opposed you!’
ثُمَّ تَقُومُ فَتَأْتِي ابْنَهُ عَلِيّاً ع وَ هُوَ عِنْدَ رِجْلِهِ فَتَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ الْحَسَنِ وَ الْحُسَيْنِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ خَدِيجَةَ وَ فَاطِمَةَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ
Then you should stand and come to his-asws son Ali-asws (Al-Akbar), and he-asws is by his-asws legs. You should say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws, O son-asws of Amir Al-Momineen-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of (Syeda) Khadeeja-asws, and (Syeda) Fatima-asws! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws!
لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ قَتَلَكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ قَتَلَكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ قَتَلَكَ أَنَا إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنْهُمْ بَرِيءٌ أَنَا إِلَى اللَّهِ بَرِيءٌ أَنَا إِلَى اللَّهِ بَرِيءٌ
May Allah-azwj Curse the one who killed you-asws! May Allah-azwj Curse the one who killed you-asws! May Allah-azwj Curse the one who killed you-asws! I disavow, by Allah-azwj, from them! I disavow, by Allah-azwj, from them! I disavow, by Allah-azwj, from them!’
ثُمَّ تَقُومُ فَتُومِئُ بِيَدِكَ إِلَى الشُّهَدَاءِ وَ تَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ فُزْتُمْ وَ اللَّهِ فُزْتُمْ وَ اللَّهِ فُزْتُمْ وَ اللَّهِ فَلَيْتَ أَنِّي مَعَكُمْ فَأَفُوزَ فَوْزاً عَظِيماً
Then you should stand and gesture with your hand towards the martyrs and say, ‘The greeting be upon you! The greeting be upon you! The greeting be upon you! You have succeeded, by Allah-azwj! You have succeeded, by Allah-azwj! You have succeeded, by Allah-azwj! If only I could have been with you all, I would have succeeded with a mighty success!’
ثُمَّ تَدُورُ فَتَجْعَلُ قَبْرَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ إِمَاماً فَتُصَلِّي سِتَّ رَكَعَاتٍ وَ قَدْ تَمَّتْ زِيَارَتُكَ وَ إِنْ شِئْتَ فَأَقِمْ وَ إِنْ شِئْتَ فَانْصَرِفْ.
Then you should rotate and make the grave of Abu Abdullah-asws, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon him-asws, in front of you. Pray six units Salat and your visitation is complete, and if you like, stand and if you like, leave’’.[188]
بيان قوله ع يا ابن الحسن هذا على سبيل المجاز فإن العرب يسمي العم أبا كما قيل في قوله تعالى لِأَبِيهِ آزَرَ.
Explanation – His-asws words: ‘O son-asws of Al-Hassan-asws’ – This is based upon the way of the metaphor, for the Arabs tend to name the paternal uncle as father, just as was said in the Words of the Exalted: to his (step) father Azar: [6:74].
كا، الكافي الْعِدَّةُ عَنِ ابْنِ عِيسَى مِثْلَهُ
(The book) ‘Al Kafi’ – The number, from Ibn Isa, similar to it.[189]
5- مل، كامل الزيارات أَبِي وَ ابْنُ الْوَلِيدِ مَعاً عَنِ ابْنِ أَبَانٍ عَنِ الْأَهْوَازِيِّ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ نُعَيْمِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ عَنْ يُوسُفَ الْكُنَاسِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: إِذَا أَتَيْتَ قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع فَأْتِ الْفُرَاتَ وَ اغْتَسِلْ بِحِيَالِ قَبْرِهِ وَ تَوَجَّهْ إِلَيْهِ وَ عَلَيْكَ السَّكِينَةَ وَ الْوَقَارَ حَتَّى تَدْخُلَ الْحَيْرَ مِنْ جَانِبِهِ الشَّرْقِيِّ وَ قُلْ حِينَ تَدْخُلُهُ
(The book) ‘Kamil Al Ziyaraat’ – My father and Ibn Al Waleed, both together from Ibn Aban, from Al Ahwazy, from Fazala, from Nueym Bin Al Waleed, from Yusuf Al Kunasy,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘When you come to the grave of Al-Husayn-asws, come to the Euphrates and bathe facing the grave, and head towards him-asws and upon you should be the calmness and the dignity until you enter the (Holy) enclosure from its eastern side, and say when you enter it: –
السَّلَامُ عَلَى مَلَائِكَةِ اللَّهِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَى مَلَائِكَةِ اللَّهِ الْمُنْزَلِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَى مَلَائِكَةِ اللَّهِ الْمُرْدِفِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَى مَلَائِكَةِ اللَّهِ الَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي هَذَا الْحَيْرِ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ مُقِيمُونَ
‘The greeting be upon the Angels of Proximity of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon the descending Angels of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon the consecutive Angels of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon the Angels of Allah-azwj, those who are resident in the (Holy) enclosure by the Permission of Allah-azwj!’
فَإِذَا اسْتَقْبَلْتَ قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع فَقُلْ السَّلَامُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى أَمِينِ اللَّهِ عَلَى رُسُلِهِ وَ عَزَائِمِ أَمْرِهِ الْخَاتِمِ لِمَا سَبَقَ وَ الْفَاتِحِ لِمَا اسْتَقْبَلَ وَ الْمُهَيْمِنِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْهِ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
When you face the grave of Al-Husayn-asws, say, ‘The greeting be upon Rasool-Allah-saww! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon the trustee of Allah-azwj, upon His-azwj Messengers-as, and His-azwj Mighty Commands, the last of what had preceded, and the beginner of what is in the future, and the dominant upon all of that, and the greeting be upon him-saww, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!’
ثُمَّ تَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَبْدِكَ وَ أَخِي رَسُولِكَ الَّذِي انْتَجَبْتَهُ بِعِلْمِكَ وَ جَعَلْتَهُ هَادِياً لِمَنْ شِئْتَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ وَ الدَّلِيلَ عَلَى مَنْ بَعَثْتَ بِرِسَالاتِكَ وَ دَيَّانَ الدِّينِ بِعَدْلِكَ وَ فَصْلَ قَضَائِكَ بَيْنَ خَلْقِكَ وَ الْمُهَيْمِنَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْهِ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
Then you should say, ‘The greeting be upon Amir Al-Momineen-asws, Your-azwj servant and brother of Your-azwj Rasool-saww whom You-azwj had Selected with Your-azwj Knowledge and Made him-saww a guide for the ones You-azwj so Desired from Your-azwj creatures, and the pointed upon the one You-azwj had Sent with Your-azwj Messages, and judge of the religion with Your-azwj Justice, and Your-azwj Decisive Decrees between Your-azwj creatures, and the dominant upon all of that, and the greeting be upon him-saww, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَبْدِكَ وَ ابْنِ رَسُولِكَ الَّذِي انْتَجَبْتَهُ بِعِلْمِكَ وَ جَعَلْتَهُ هَادِياً لِمَنْ شِئْتَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ وَ الدَّلِيلَ عَلَى مَنْ بَعَثْتَ بِرِسَالاتِكَ وَ دَيَّانَ الدِّينِ بِعَدْلِكَ وَ فَصْلَ قَضَائِكَ بَيْنَ خَلْقِكَ وَ الْمُهَيْمِنَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْهِ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Al-Hassan-asws Bin Ali-asws, Your-azwj servant and son-asws of Your-azwj Rasool-saww whom You-azwj had Chosen with Your-azwj Knowledge, and Made him-asws a guide for the ones You-azwj so Desires from Your-azwj creatures, and the pointer upon the ones You-azwj had Sent with Your-azwj Messages, and judge of the religion with Your-azwj Justice, and decider of Your-azwj Decrees between Your-azwj creatures, and the dominant upon all of that, and the greeting be upon him-asws, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!
ثُمَّ تُسَلِّمُ عَلَى الْحُسَيْنِ وَ سَائِرِ الْأَئِمَّةِ كَمَا صَلَّيْتَ وَ سَلَّمْتَ عَلَى الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ-
Then greet upon Al-Husayn-asws and the rest of the Imams-asws just as you have sent Salawaat and greeted upon Al-Hassan-asws Bin Ali-asws.
ثُمَّ تَأْتِي قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع فَتَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَحِمَكَ اللَّهُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ
Then come to the grave of Al-Husayn-asws and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws, O Abu Abdullah-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon you-asws, O Abu Abdullah-asws! May Allah-azwj Mercy you-asws O Abu Abdullah-asws!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ قَدْ بَلَّغْتَ عَنِ اللَّهِ مَا أَمَرَكَ بِهِ وَ لَمْ تَخْشَ أَحَداً غَيْرَهُ وَ جَاهَدْتَ فِي سَبِيلِهِ وَ عَبَدْتَهُ مُخْلِصاً حَتَّى أَتَاكَ الْيَقِينُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكُمْ كَلِمَةُ التَّقْوَى وَ بَابُ الْهُدَى وَ الْعُرْوَةُ الْوُثْقَى وَ الْحُجَّةُ عَلَى مَنْ يَبْقَى وَ مَنْ تَحْتَ الثَّرَى
I testify you-asws had delivered on behalf of Allah-azwj what He-azwj had Commanded you-asws with, and you-asws did not fear anyone apart from Him-azwj, and fought in His-azwj way, and worshipped Him-azwj sincerely until the certainty (death) came to you-asws! I testify you-asws are the word of piety, and the door of guidance, and the firmest handhold, and the Divine Authority upon the ones who remain, and ones beneath the soil!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ لَكُمْ سَابِقٌ فِيمَا مَضَى وَ ذَلِكَ لَكُمْ فَاتِحٌ فِيمَا بَقِيَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ أَرْوَاحَكُمْ وَ طِينَتَكُمْ طَيِّبَةٌ طَيِّبَةٌ طَابَتْ وَ طَهُرَتْ هِيَ بَعْضُهَا مِنْ بَعْضٍ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَ مِنْ رَحْمَتِهِ
I testify that is for you-asws, a precedence in what has passed, and that is for you-asws a beginner in what remains! I testify that your-asws souls and your-asws clays are good, pure and purified, and purified part from part from Allah-azwj and from His-azwj Mercy!
فَأُشْهِدُ اللَّهَ وَ أُشْهِدُكُمْ أَنِّي بِكُمْ مُؤْمِنٌ وَ لَكُمْ تَابِعٌ فِي ذَاتِ نَفْسِي وَ شَرَائِعِ دِينِي وَ خَاتِمَةِ عَمَلِي وَ مُنْقَلَبِي وَ مَثْوَايَ فَأَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الْبَرَّ الرَّحِيمَ أَنْ يُتَمِّمَ لِي ذَلِكَ
I keep Allah-azwj as Witness and keep you-asws (Imams-asws) as witnessed that I am a believer in you-asws, and a follower of yours-asws regarding my own self, and laws of my religion, and outcome of my actions, and my transfer and my abode! I ask Allah-azwj, the Righteous, the Merciful, to Complete that for me!

Then you should say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Curse those who have replaced Your-azwj bounties, and opposed Your-azwj Nation, and turned away from Your-azwj Command, and accused Your-azwj Rasool-saww, and hindered from Your-azwj way!

O Allah-azwj! Curse the false gods of this community, and Curse its tyrants, and Curse its Pharaohs, and Curse the killer of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and Curse the killer of Al-Husayn-asws and Punish them with such Punishment, You-azwj have not Punished anyone with it from the worlds!

Then be seated by his-asws head, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon him-asws. Say, ‘May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws! I testify you-asws are a servant of Allah-azwj and His-azwj trustee! You-azwj delivered advice, and fulfilled entrustment, and were killed as truthful, and passed upon certainty!

ثُمَّ تَمْضِي إِلَى صَلَاتِكَ وَ لَكَ بِكُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ رَكَعْتَهَا عِنْدَهُ كَثَوَابِ مَنْ حَجَّ وَ اعْتَمَرَ أَلْفَ عُمْرَةٍ وَ أَعْتَقَ أَلْفَ رَقَبَةٍ وَ كَأَنَّمَا وَقَفَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَلْفَ مَرَّةٍ مَعَ نَبِيٍّ مُرْسَلٍ
Then continue to your Salat, and for you, with unit you perform in his-asws presence would be like the Rewards of the one who performed Hajj and Umrah, a thousand Umrah, and liberated a thousand necks, and as if he had stood in the way of Allah-azwj a thousand times with a Sent Prophet-as.
فَإِذَا انْقَلَبْتَ مِنْ عِنْدِ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع نَادَاكَ مُنَادٍ لَوْ سَمِعْتَ مَقَالَتَهُ لَأَقَمْتَ عُمُرَكَ عِنْدَ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ طُوبَى لَكَ أَيُّهَا الْعَبْدُ قَدْ غَنِمْتَ وَ سَلِمْتَ قَدْ غُفِرَ لَكَ مَا سَلَفَ فَاسْتَأْنِفِ الْعَمَلَ
When you turn back from being by the grave of Al-Husayn-asws, a caller calls out to you, if you could hear his words, you would spend your whole life by the grave of Al-Husayn-asws, and he says: ‘Beatitude be for you, O servant! You have gained and are sale! It has been Forgiven for you what is past, so resume the deeds (anew)!’

If he dies during his year or during his night or his day, no one takes charge of the capture of his soul except Allah-azwj, and the Angels will come with him seeking Forgiveness for him, and they send Salawaat upon him until he arrives to his destination, and the Angels say: ‘O Lord-azwj! This is Your-azwj servant who had arrived to the grave of a son-asws of Your-azwj Prophet-saww, and arrived to his destination, so where should we go?’
فَيَأْتِيهِمُ النِّدَاءُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ يَا مَلَائِكَتِي قِفُوا بِبَابِ عَبْدِي فَسَبِّحُوا وَ قَدِّسُوا وَ اكْتُبُوا ذَلِكَ فِي حَسَنَاتِهِ إِلَى يَوْمِ يُتَوَفَّى
The Call comes to them from the sky: “O My-azwj Angels! Pause at the door of My-azwj servant! Glorify, and Sanctify, and write that among his good deeds up to the day he dies!”

(The book) ‘Kamil Al Ziyaraat’ – Al-Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Ahmad Bin Is’haq, from Sa’dan Bin Muslim, from one of our companions,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘When you come to the grave, begin by lauding upon Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, and have sent Salawaat upon the Prophet-saww, and make efforts in that if Allah-azwj so Desires. Then you should say, ‘The greeting of Allah-azwj and greeting of His-azwj Angels in what goes and comes, and the purified, the cleansed for you-asws!
وَ عَلَيْكَ سَلَامُ الْمَلَائِكَةِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ وَ الْمُسَلِّمِينَ لَكَ بِقُلُوبِهِمْ وَ النَّاطِقِينَ بِفَضْلِكَ وَ الشُّهَدَاءِ عَلَى أَنَّكَ صَادِقٌ وَ صِدِّيقٌ صَدَقْتَ وَ نَصَحْتَ فِيمَا أَتَيْتَ بِهِ وَ أَنَّكَ ثَارُ اللَّهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَ الدَّمُ الَّذِي لَا يُدْرِكُ تِرَتَهُ أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ وَ لَا يُدْرِكُهُ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ
And upon you-asws is the greeting of the Angels of Proximity, and the ones greeting to you-asws with their words, and the speakers with your-asws merits, and the witnesses upon that you-asws are a truthful, and a ratifier. You-asws spoke the truth and advised in whatever you-asws had come with, and your-asws are a retaliator of Allah-azwj in the earth, and the blood which no one from the people of the earth can achieve its retaliation, nor can anyone achieve it except Allah-azwj Alone!

O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! I have come as a delegate to you-asws seeking means to Allah-azwj through you-asws in entirety of my needs from matters of my Hereafter and my world, and through you-asws the seekers of mean to Allah-azwj seek means regarding their needs, and through you-asws the people seeking retaliation from the servants of Allah-azwj realised their search!

Then walk a little, then stand facing the grave. Say, ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj, the One, the Unique with the matters, all of them! Creator of the creation, so nothing is oblivious from Him-azwj of their affairs, and He-azwj is a Knower of all things without having been taught! (Avenging) your-asws blood and your-asws retaliation is guaranteed by the earth and the ones upon it, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww!’

I testify that many of the battalions had been killed with you-asws just as Allah-azwj Said: ‘And how many a Prophet has fought with whom were many battalions; so they did not weaken due to what befell them [3:146]!’

Then exclaim seven Takbeer, then walk a little and face the grave, then say, The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who neither took a female consort nor a son, and there does not happen to be an associate for Him-azwj in the Kingdom, and Created all things, and Determined a Determination!

O Allah-azwj, and Make a truthful tongue to be for me among Your-azwj Guardians, and Make their-asws shrines to be beloved to me until You-azwj Join me with them, and Make me as predecessors for me and Make me a follower of theirs-asws, in the world and the Hereafter!’

Then walk a little and exclaim seven Takbeer, and extol Oneness seven times, and praise Allah-azwj seven times, and glorify Allah-azwj seven times, and respond to him-asws seven times saying, ‘Here I am caller of Allah-azwj! If my body did not answer you-asws, there have answered to you my heart, and my hair, and my skin, and my opinion, and my personal desires upon the submission to a replacement of the Prophet-saww, the Sent Prophet-saww, and the Selected grandson-asws, and the knowledgeable, and the trusted treasurer, and the eloquent successor-asws, and the oppressed, the wronged!

I have come to you-asws cutting off (from others), and to your-asws son-asws, and son-asws of your-asws son-asws, the replacement from after you-asws upon the Blessings of the truth. My heart is submissive to you-asws, and my affair is a follower of yours-asws, and my help is prepared for you-asws until Allah-azwj Decides, and He-azwj is best of the deciders for His-azwj religion, and Resurrects you-asws all!

Then walk until you ended to the grave. Say while you are standing, ‘Glory be to Allah-azwj! Glory be to Allah-azwj Possessor of the Kingdom and the Realms, and His-azwj Names Sanctify entirety of His-azwj creatures! Glory be to Allah-azwj, the King, the Holy, Lord-azwj of the Angels and the Spirit!

O Allah-azwj! Make me among Your-azwj delegates to best of Your-azwj spot and the best of Your-azwj creatures! O Allah-azwj! Curse the false gods and the tyrants!’
ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ يَدَيْكَ حَتَّى تَضَعَهُمَا مُمَدَّدَتَيْنِ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ ثُمَّ تَقُولُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ طُهْرٌ طَاهِرٌ مِنْ طُهْرٍ طَاهِرٍ قَدْ طَهُرَتْ بِكَ الْبِلَادُ وَ طَهُرَتْ أَرْضٌ أَنْتَ فِيهَا وَ أَنَّكَ ثَارُ اللَّهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ حَتَّى يَسْتَثِيرَ لَكَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ خَلْقِهِ
Then raise your hands until you extend them upon the grave. Then you should say, ‘I testify you-asws are a purifier, pure, from purity of a purifier! The city is purified by you-asws and purified is the ground you-asws are in, and you-asws are a retaliator of Allah-azwj in the earth until retaliation is taken from the entirety of His-azwj creatures!’
ثُمَّ ضَعْ يَدَيْكَ وَ خَدَّيْكَ جَمِيعاً عَلَى الْقَبْرِ ثُمَّ اجْلِسْ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ فَاذْكُرِ اللَّهَ بِمَا أَحْبَبْتَ وَ تَوَجَّهْ إِلَيْهِ وَ اسْأَلِ اللَّهَ حَوَائِجَكَ ثُمَّ ضَعْ يَدَيْكَ وَ خَدَّيْكَ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ وَ قُلْ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى رُوحِكَ وَ بَدَنِكَ فَلَقَدْ صَبَرْتَ وَ أَنْتَ الصَّادِقُ الْمُصَدَّقُ قَتَلَ اللَّهُ مَنْ قَتَلَكَ بِالْأَيْدِي وَ الْأَلْسُنِ
Then place of your hands and your cheeks altogether upon the grave, then be seated by his-asws head. Do Zikr of Allah-azwj with what you like and divert to him, and ask Allah-azwj your needs. Then place your hands and your cheeks by his-asws legs, and say, ‘May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws soul and your-asws body. You-asws have been patient and you-asws are the truthful, the ratifier! May Allah-azwj Curse the ones who killed you-asws with the hands and the tongues!’
ثُمَّ قُمْ إِلَى قَبْرِ وَلَدِهِ فَتُثْنِي عَلَيْهِمْ بِمَا أَحْبَبْتَ وَ تَسْأَلُ رَبَّكَ حَوَائِجَكَ وَ مَا بَدَا لَكَ ثُمَّ تَسْتَقْبِلُ قُبُورَ الشُّهَدَاءِ قَائِماً
Then stand to the grave of his-asws son-asws (Ali Al-Akbar-asws). Laud upon them-asws with whatever you like and ask your Lord-azwj your needs and whatever comes to you. Then faces the graves of the martyrs, standing.
فَتَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَيُّهَا الرَّبَّانِيُّونَ أَنْتُمْ لَنَا فَرَطٌ وَ نَحْنُ لَكُمْ تَبَعٌ وَ أَنْصَارٌ أَبْشِرُوا بِمَوْعِدِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا خُلْفَ لَهُ وَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ مُدْرِكٌ بِكُمْ ثَارَكُمْ وَ أَنْتُمْ سَادَةُ الشُّهَدَاءِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ
You should say, ‘The greeting be upon you all, O spiritualists! You are predecessors for us and we are followers of yours and helpers! Receive glad tidings of the Promise of Allah-azwj which there is no breaking for it, and Allah-azwj will Realise your retaliations with you-asws, and you are chiefs of the martyrs in the world and the Hereafter!’
ثُمَّ اجْعَلِ الْقَبْرَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ وَ صَلِّ مَا بَدَا لَكَ وَ كُلَّمَا دَخَلْتَ الْحَيْرَ فَسَلِّمْ ثُمَّ امْشِ حَتَّى تَضَعَ يَدَيْكَ وَ خَدَّيْكَ جَمِيعاً عَلَى الْقَبْرِ فَإِذَا أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ فَاصْنَعْ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَ لَا تُقَصِّرْ عِنْدَهُ مِنَ الصَّلَوَاتِ مَا أَقَمْتَ
Then make the grave to be in front of you and pray Salat whatever comes to you, and every time you enter the enclosure, greet, then walk until you place your hands and your cheeks altogether upon the grave. When you intend to exit, do similar to that and do not shorten (Salat) in his-asws presence from the Salats what you establish.
فَإِذَا انْصَرَفْتَ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ فَوَدِّعْهُ وَ قُلْ سَلَامُ اللَّهِ وَ سَلَامُ مَلَائِكَتِهِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ وَ أَنْبِيَائِهِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ عِبَادِهِ الصَّالِحِينَ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ عَلَى رُوحِكَ وَ بَدَنِكَ وَ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ وَ مَنْ حَضَرَكَ مِنْ أَوْلِيَائِكَ.
When you leave from his-asws presence, bid farewell to him-asws and say: ‘Greeting of Allah-azwj, and greeting of His-azwj Angels of Proximity, and His-azwj Sent Prophets-as, and His-azwj righteous servants be upon you-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-azwj, and upon your-asws soul and your-asws body, and your-asws offspring, and ones from your-asws friends presenting to you-asws!’’[205]

You-azwj are the best of those to whom men come as guests, and You-azwj, my Master, are the most generous One approached and the most generous One visited! You-azwj have Appointed an honour for every visitor and a gift for everyone who comes.
وَ قَدْ أَتَيْتُكَ زَائِراً قَبْرَ ابْنِ نَبِيِّكَ صَلَوَاتُكَ عَلَيْهِ فَاجْعَلْ تُحْفَتَكَ إِيَّايَ فَكَاكَ رَقَبَتِي مِنَ النَّارِ وَ تَقَبَّلْ مِنِّي عَمَلِي وَ اشْكُرْ سَعْيِي وَ ارْحَمْ مَسِيرِي إِلَيْكَ بِغَيْرِ مَنٍّ مِنِّي بَلْ لَكَ الْمَنُّ عَلَيَّ إِذْ جَعَلْتَ لِيَ السَّبِيلَ إِلَى زِيَارَتِهِ وَ عَرَّفْتَنِي فَضْلَهُ وَ حَفِظْتَنِي حَتَّى بَلَّغْتَنِي قَبْرَ ابْنِ وَلِيِّكَ
I have come to You-azwj as a visitor to the grave of the son-asws of Your-azwj Prophet-saww, may Your-azwj Salawaat be upon him-saww! So, Make Your-azwj gift to me the freeing of my neck from the Fire. Accept my deeds, and Award my efforts, and have Mercy on my journey to You-azwj without any conferment on my part, for indeed, the Favour is Yours-azwj upon me, since You-azwj Enabled me to reach this visitation, and Made me recognise his virtue, and Protected me until You-azwj brought me to the grave of the son-asws of Your-azwj friend!
وَ قَدْ أَتَيْتُكَ زَائِراً قَبْرَ ابْنِ نَبِيِّكَ صَلَوَاتُكَ عَلَيْهِ فَاجْعَلْ تُحْفَتَكَ إِيَّايَ فَكَاكَ رَقَبَتِي مِنَ النَّارِ وَ تَقَبَّلْ مِنِّي عَمَلِي وَ اشْكُرْ سَعْيِي وَ ارْحَمْ مَسِيرِي إِلَيْكَ بِغَيْرِ مَنٍّ مِنِّي بَلْ لَكَ الْمَنُّ عَلَيَّ إِذْ جَعَلْتَ لِيَ السَّبِيلَ إِلَى زِيَارَتِهِ وَ عَرَّفْتَنِي فَضْلَهُ وَ حَفِظْتَنِي حَتَّى بَلَّغْتَنِي قَبْرَ ابْنِ وَلِيِّكَ
I have placed my hope in You-azwj, so Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and, do not Cut off my hope! Now that I have come to You-azwj, do not disappoint me. Make this a purification for my past sins, and Make me among his-asws supporters, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!
وَ قَدْ رَجَوْتُكَ فَصَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ لَا تَقْطَعْ رَجَائِي وَ قَدْ أَتَيْتُكَ فَلَا تُخَيِّبْ أَمَلِي وَ اجْعَلْ هَذَا كَفَّارَةً لِمَا قَبْلَهُ مِنْ ذُنُوبِي وَ اجْعَلْنِي مِنْ أَنْصَارِهِ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
And I have hoped, so Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and do not Cut-off my hopes, and I have come to You-azwj so do not disappoint my wishes, and Make this an atonement for my sins what have been before it, and Make me from his-asws helpers, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
ثُمَّ اعْبُرِ الْفُرَاتَ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اجْعَلْ سَعْيِي مَشْكُوراً وَ ذَنْبِي مَغْفُوراً وَ عَمَلِي مَقْبُولًا وَ اغْسِلْنِي مِنَ الْخَطَايَا وَ الذُّنُوبِ وَ طَهِّرْ قَلْبِي مِنْ كُلِّ آفَةٍ تَمْحَقُ دِينِي أَوْ تُبْطِلُ عَمَلِي يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
Then cross the Euphrates and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and Make my striving Appreciated, and my sins Forgiven, and my deeds Acceptable, and Wash me from the misdeeds and the sins, and Purify my heart from every defect destroying my religion or invalidating my deeds, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
ثُمَّ تَأْتِي النَّيْنَوَى فَتَضَعُ رَحْلَكَ بِهَا وَ لَا تَدَّهِنْ وَ لَا تَكْتَحِلْ وَ لَا تَأْكُلِ اللَّحْمَ مَا دُمْتَ مُقِيماً بِهَا ثُمَّ تَأْتِي الشَّطَّ بِحِذَاءِ نَخْلِ الْقَبْرِ فَاغْتَسِلْ وَ عَلَيْكَ الْمِئْزَرُ وَ قُلْ وَ أَنْتَ تَغْتَسِلُ اللَّهُمَّ طَهِّرْنِي وَ طَهِّرْ قَلْبِي وَ اشْرَحْ لِي صَدْرِي وَ أَجْرِ عَلَى لِسَانِي مَحَبَّتَكَ وَ مِدْحَتَكَ وَ الثَّنَاءَ عَلَيْكَ فَإِنَّهُ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِكَ
Then come to Al-Neynawa and place your belongings in it and neither apply oil nor Kohl nor eat the meat for as long as you stay in it. Then go to the riverbank across from the palm trees near the grave, perform a ritual bath, wear the waist cloth, and as you bathe and say: ‘O Allah-azwj! Purify me and Purify my heart, and Expand my chest for me, and Flow love for You-azwj upon my tongue, and Your-azwj praise and laudation upon You-azwj, for there is neither might nor strength except through You-azwj!
وَ قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ قِوَامَ دِينِي التَّسْلِيمُ لِأَمْرِكَ وَ الشَّهَادَةُ عَلَى جَمِيعِ أَنْبِيَائِكَ وَ رُسُلِكَ بِالْأُلْفَةِ بَيْنَهُمْ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُمْ أَنْبِيَاؤُكَ وَ رُسُلُكَ إِلَى جَمِيعِ خَلْقِكَ
And I know that the foundation of my religion is submission to Your-azwj Command and bearing witness to all of Your-azwj Prophets-as and Messengers with unity among them. I testify they-as are indeed Your-azwj Prophets-as and Your-azwj Messengers-as to all of Your-azwj creation!
اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ نُوراً وَ طَهُوراً وَ حِرْزاً وَ شِفَاءً مِنْ كُلِّ سُقْمٍ وَ دَاءٍ وَ مِنْ كُلِّ آفَةٍ وَ عَاهَةٍ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَخَافُ وَ أَحْذَرُ
O Allah-azwj! Make it a Noor, and cleansing, and protection, and healing from all sicknesses and illnesses, and from every disaster and disability, and from evil of what I fear and am cautious of!
اللَّهُمَّ طَهِّرْ بِهِ جَوَارِحِي وَ عِظَامِي وَ لَحْمِي وَ دَمِي وَ شَعْرِي وَ بَشَرِي وَ مُخِّي وَ عَصَبِي وَ مَا أَقَلَّتِ الْأَرْضُ مِنِّي وَ اجْعَلْهُ لِي شَاهِداً يَوْمَ فَقْرِي وَ فَاقَتِي
O Allah-azwj! Purify by it my limbs, and my bones, and my flesh, and my blood, and my hair, and my skin, and my brain, and my nerves, and whatever from me the ground carries, and Make is a witness for me on the Day of my poverty and my destitution!’
ثُمَّ الْبَسْ أَطْهَرَ ثِيَابِكَ فَإِذَا لَبِسْتَهَا فَقُلْ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ثَلَاثِينَ مَرَّةً وَ تَقُولُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي إِلَيْهِ قَصَدْتُ فَبَلَّغَنِي وَ إِيَّاهُ أَرَدْتُ فَقَبِلَنِي وَ لَمْ يَقْطَعْ بِي وَ رَحْمَتَهُ ابْتَغَيْتُ فَسَلَّمَنِي
Then wear cleanest of your clothes. When you have worn these, say, ‘Allah-azwj is Greatest! Allah-azwj is Greatest, thirty times, and say, ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who I have aimed to so He-azwj Made me reach, and Him-azwj I intended so He-asws Accepted me, and He-azwj did not Cut off me, and I sought His-azwj Mercy so He-azwj Kept me safe!
اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ حِصْنِي وَ كَهْفِي وَ حِرْزِي وَ رَجَائِي وَ أَمَلِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ
O Allah-azwj! You-azwj are my fortress, and my cave, and my protection, and my hope, and my wish! There is no god except You-azwj, O Lord-azwj of the worlds!’
فَإِذَا أَرَدْتَ الْمَشْيَ فَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَرَدْتُكَ فَأَرِدْنِي وَ إِنِّي أَقْبَلْتُ بِوَجْهِي إِلَيْكَ فَلَا تُعْرِضْ بِوَجْهِكَ عَنِّي فَإِنْ كُنْتَ عَلَيَّ سَاخِطاً فَتُبْ عَلَيَّ وَ ارْحَمْ مَسِيرِي إِلَى ابْنِ حَبِيبِكَ أَبْتَغِي بِذَلِكَ رِضَاكَ عَنِّي فَارْضَ عَنِّي وَ لَا تُخَيِّبْنِي يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
When you want to walk, say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I have intended You-azwj so Intend me, and I have turned my face to You-azwj so do not Turn Your-azwj Face away from me! If You-azwj were Wrathful upon me, Turn to me and Mercy my journey to a son-asws of Your-azwj Beloved! I seek Your-azwj being Pleased with me, so be Pleased with me and do not disappoint me, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
ثُمَّ امْشِ حَافِياً وَ عَلَيْكَ السَّكِينَةَ وَ الْوَقَارَ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ وَ التَّهْلِيلِ وَ التَّحْمِيدِ وَ التَّمْجِيدِ وَ التَّعْظِيمِ لِلَّهِ وَ لِرَسُولِهِ وَ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ
Then walk bare-footed and upon you should be the calmness and the dignity with the exclamations of Takbeer, and extollations of the Oneness, and the praises, and the glorification, and the reverence to Allah-azwj and to His-azwj Rasool-saww, and the Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws!
وَ قُلْ أَيْضاً الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الْوَاحِدِ الْمُتَوَحِّدِ بِالْأُمُورِ كُلِّهَا خَالِقِ الْخَلْقِ وَ لَمْ يَعْزُبْ عَنْهُ شَيْءٌ مِنْ أُمُورِهِمْ وَ عَلِمَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ بِغَيْرِ تَعْلِيمٍ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ وَ سَلَامُ مَلَائِكَتِهِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ وَ أَنْبِيَائِهِ وَ رُسُلِهِ أَجْمَعِينَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ الْأَوْصِيَاءِ
And say as well, ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj the One, the Unique with the matters, all of them! Creator of the creation, and nothing from their affairs is hidden from Him-azwj, and Knower of all things without being taught! May the Salawaat of Allah-azwj and greeting of His-azwj Angels of Proximity, and His-azwj Prophets-as and His-azwj Messengers-as altogether be upon Muhammad-saww and People-asws of his-saww Household, the successors-asws.
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَنْعَمَ عَلَيَّ وَ عَرَّفَنِي فَضْلَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ ص
The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who Conferred upon me and Introduced me to the merits of Muhammad-saww and People-asws of his-saww Household!’
ثُمَّ تَمْشِي قَلِيلًا وَ قَصِّرْ خُطَاكَ فَإِذَا وَقَفْتَ عَلَى التَّلِّ وَ اسْتَقْبَلْتَ الْقَبْرَ فَقِفْ وَ قُلْ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ ثَلَاثِينَ مَرَّةً وَ تَقُولُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ فِي عِلْمِهِ مُنْتَهَى عِلْمِهِ وَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ بَعْدَ عِلْمِهِ مُنْتَهَى عِلْمِهِ مُنْتَهَى عِلْمِهِ
Then walk a little and shorten your steps. When you stand at the hill and face the grave, pause and say, ‘Allah-azwj is Greatest! Allah-azwj is Greatest!’, thirty times, and say, ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj in His-azwj Knowledge, the ultimate of His-azwj Knowledge, and there is no god except Allah-azwj after His-azwj Knowledge, ultimate of His-azwj Knowledge!
وَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مَعَ عِلْمِهِ مُنْتَهَى عِلْمِهِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ فِي عِلْمِهِ مُنْتَهَى عِلْمِهِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ بَعْدَ عِلْمِهِ مُنْتَهَى عِلْمِهِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ مَعَ عِلْمِهِ مُنْتَهَى عِلْمِهِ

And Glory be to Allah-azwj in His-azwj Knowledge, the ultimate of His-azwj Knowledge, and Glory be to Allah-azwj after His-azwj Knowledge, the ultimate of His-azwj Knowledge, and Glory be to Allah-azwj with His-azwj Knowledge, the ultimate of His-azwj, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj with the entirety of His-azwj Praises upon entirety of His-azwj bounties!
وَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَ حَقٌّ لَهُ ذَلِكَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ الْحَلِيمُ الْكَرِيمُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ وَ نُورُ الْأَرَضِينَ السَّبْعِ وَ نُورُ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ

ثُمَّ امْشِ عَشْرَ خُطُوَاتٍ وَ كَبِّرْ ثَلَاثِينَ تَكْبِيرَةً وَ قُلْ وَ أَنْتَ تَمْشِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ تَهْلِيلًا لَا يُحْصِيهِ غَيْرُهُ قَبْلَ كُلِّ أَحَدٍ وَ بَعْدَ كُلِّ أَحَدٍ وَ مَعَ كُلِّ أَحَدٍ وَ عَدَدَ كُلِّ أَحَدٍ

السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حُجَّةَ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنَ حُجَّتِهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا مَلَائِكَةَ اللَّهِ وَ يَا زُوَّارَ قَبْرِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع-
The greeting be upon you-asws O Divine Authority of Allah-azwj and son-asws of His-azwj Divine Authority! The greeting be upon you, O Angels of Allah-azwj and O visitors of Abu Abdullah-asws!’
ثُمَّ امْشِ قَلِيلًا وَ عَلَيْكَ السَّكِينَةَ وَ الْوَقَارَ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ وَ التَّهْلِيلِ وَ التَّمْجِيدِ وَ التَّحْمِيدِ وَ التَّعْظِيمِ لِلَّهِ وَ لِرَسُولِهِ ص- وَ قَصِّرْ خُطَاكَ
Then walk a little and upon you should be the calmness and the dignity, with the exclamations of Takbeer, and extollations of Oneness, and the glorifications, and the praises, and the reverence for Allah-azwj and for His-azwj Rasool-saww, and shorten your steps.
فَإِذَا أَتَيْتَ الْبَابَ الَّذِي يَلِي الْمَشْرِقَ فَقِفْ عَلَى الْبَابِ وَ قُلْ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً ص عَبْدُهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ وَ أَمِينُ اللَّهِ عَلَى خَلْقِهِ وَ أَنَّهُ سَيِّدُ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْآخِرِينَ وَ أَنَّهُ سَيِّدُ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ

سَلَامٌ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي هَدانا لِهذا وَ ما كُنَّا لِنَهْتَدِيَ لَوْ لا أَنْ هَدانَا اللَّهُ لَقَدْ جاءَتْ رُسُلُ رَبِّنا بِالْحَقِ
Greeting be upon Rasool-Allah-saww! The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who Guided us to this, and we were not going to be guided had Allah-azwj not Guided us! Messengers-as of our Lord-azwj had come with the truth!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ هَذَا قَبْرُ ابْنِ حَبِيبِكَ وَ صَفْوَتِكَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ وَ أَنَّهُ الْفَائِزُ بِكَرَامَتِكَ أَكْرَمْتَهُ بِكِتَابِكَ وَ خَصَصْتَهُ وَ ائْتَمَنْتَهُ عَلَى وَحْيِكَ وَ أَعْطَيْتَهُ مَوَارِيثَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ جَعَلْتَهُ حُجَّةً عَلَى خَلْقِكَ
O Allah-azwj! I testify that this is grave of a son-asws of Your-azwj Beloved and Your-azwj elite from Your-azwj creatures, and he-saww has succeeded with Your-azwj Benevolence! You-azwj Honoured him-saww, and Specialised him-saww and Entrusted him-saww upon Your-azwj Revelation, and Gave him-saww inheritances of the Prophets-as, and Made him-saww a Divine Authority upon Your-azwj creatures!
فَأَعْذَرَ فِي الدَّعْوَةِ وَ بَذَلَ مُهْجَتَهُ فِيكَ لِيَسْتَنْقِذَ عِبَادَكَ مِنَ الضَّلَالَةِ وَ الْجَهَالَةِ وَ الْعَمَى وَ الشَّكِّ وَ الِارْتِيَابِ إِلَى بَابِ الْهُدَى مِنَ الرَّدَى وَ أَنْتَ تَرَى وَ لَا تُرَى وَ أَنْتَ بِالْمَنْظَرِ الْأَعْلَى
He-saww fulfilled the duty of calling and gave his very soul-saww for Your-azwj Sake, in order to rescue Your-azwj servants from misguidance, and ignorance, and blindness, and doubt, and confusion, and to lead them to the gate of guidance from ruin, and You-azwj See all, and You-azwj are not seen, and You-azwj are in the highest watchful position!
حَتَّى ثَارَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ مَنْ غَرَّتْهُ الدُّنْيَا وَ بَاعَ الْآخِرَةَ بِالثَّمَنِ الْأَوْكَسِ وَ أَسْخَطَكَ وَ أَسْخَطَ رَسُولَكَ وَ أَطَاعَ مِنْ عَبِيدِكَ مِنْ أَهْلِ النِّفَاقِ وَ حَمَلَةِ الْأَوْزَارِ مَنِ اسْتَوْجَبَ النَّارَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ قَاتِلِي وُلْدِ رَسُولِكَ وَ ضَاعَفَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْعَذَابَ الْأَلِيمَ
Then, from among Your-azwj creatures, there rose against him-saww, those whom the world had deceived, who had sold the Hereafter for the cheapest price, who Angered You-azwj and angered Your-azwj Messenger-saww, and who obeyed among Your-azwj servants the people of hypocrisy and the bearers of burdens, those who have earned Hellfire!

أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكُمْ قَدْ بَلَّغْتُمْ وَ نَصَحْتُمْ وَ صَبَرْتُمْ وَ قُتِلْتُمْ وَ غُصِبْتُمْ وَ أُسِيءَ إِلَيْكُمْ فَصَبَرْتُمْ لُعِنَتْ أُمَّةٌ خَالَفَتْكُمْ وَ أُمَّةٌ جَحَدَتْ وَلَايَتَكُمْ وَ أُمَّةٌ تَظَاهَرَتْ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ أُمَّةٌ شَهِدَتْ وَ لَمْ تُسْتَشْهَدْ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ النَّارَ مَثْوَاهُمْ وَ بِئْسَ الْوِرْدُ الْمَوْرُودُ وَ بِئْسَ الرِّفْدُ الْمَرْفُودُ
I testify you-asws have delivered, and advised, and were patient, and were killed, and disobeyed, and evil was the treatment to you-asws, but you-asws were patient! May Allah-azwj Curse the community which opposed you-asws, and the community which rejected your-asws Wilayah, and the community which backed each other against you-asws, and the community which witnessed and did not seek martyrdom! The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who Made the Hellfire as their abode! Evil is the arrival of the arrives, and evil is the place to which the ones would be led to [11:98] and evil is the gift of the ones gifted to [11:99]!’

وَ تَقُولُ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ إِلَيْكَ كَانَتْ رِحْلَتِي مَعَ بُعْدِ شُقَّتِي وَ لَكَ فَاضَتْ عَبْرَتِي وَ عَلَيْكَ كَانَ أَسَفِي وَ نَحِيبِي وَ صُرَاخِي وَ زَفْرَتِي وَ شَهَقِي وَ إِلَيْكَ كَانَ مَجِيئِي وَ بِكَ أَسْتَتِرُ مِنْ عَظِيمِ جُرْمِي أَتَيْتُكَ زَائِراً وَافِداً قَدْ أَوْقَرْتُ ظَهْرِي
And you should say, ‘May my father and my mother be (sacrificed) for you-asws, O Abu Abdullah-asws! To you-asws was my journey, despite the remoteness of my apartment. For you-asws my tears have flowed, and over you-asws was my sorrow, and my wailing, and my cries, and my sighs, and my and sobs. To you-asws was my coming, and through you-asws I seek cover from the weight of my great sins! I have come to you-asws as a visitor and a seeker, with my back burdened!
بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي يَا سَيِّدِي بَكَيْتُكَ يَا خِيَرَةَ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنَ خِيَرَتِهِ وَ حَقٌّ لِيَ أَنْ أَبْكِيَكَ وَ قَدْ بَكَتْكَ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَ الْأَرَضُونَ وَ الْجِبَالُ وَ الْبِحَارُ فَمَا عُذْرِي إِنْ لَمْ أَبْكِكَ وَ قَدْ بَكَاكَ حَبِيبُ رَبِّي وَ بَكَتْكَ الْأَئِمَّةُ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ وَ بَكَاكَ مَنْ دُونَ سِدْرَةِ الْمُنْتَهَى إِلَى الثَّرَى جَزَعاً عَلَيْكَ

ثُمَّ اسْتَلِمِ الْقَبْرَ وَ قُلْ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَا حُسَيْنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حُجَّةَ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنَ حُجَّتِهِ
Then kiss the grave and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O Abu Abdullah-asws, O Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! The greeting be upon you-asws O Divine Authority of Allah-azwj and son-asws of His-azwj Divine Authority!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَ أَمِينُهُ بَلَّغْتَ نَاصِحاً وَ أَدَّيْتَ أَمِيناً وَ قُلْتُ صَادِقاً وَ قُتِلْتَ صِدِّيقاً فَمَضَيْتُ عَلَى يَقِينٍ لَمْ تُؤْثِرْ عَمًى عَلَى هُدًى وَ لَمْ تَمِلْ مِنْ حَقٍّ إِلَى بَاطِلٍ وَ لَمْ تُحِبَّ إِلَّا اللَّهَ وَحْدَهُ
I testify you-asws are a servant of Allah-azwj and His-azwj trustee! You-asws delivered advising, and fulfilled entrustment, and you-asws said truthful were killed as truthful! You-asws passed upon certainty. You-asws did not prefer blindness over guidance and did not incline from truth to falsehood, and did not love except Allah-azwj Alone!
وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ كُنْتَ عَلَى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّكَ بَلَّغْتَ مَا أُمِرْتَ بِهِ وَ قُمْتَ بِحَقِّهِ وَ صَدَّقْتَ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكَ غَيْرَ وَاهِنٍ وَ لَا مُوهِنٍ فَصَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ وَ سَلَّمَ تَسْلِيماً جَزَاكَ اللَّهُ مِنْ صِدِّيقٍ خَيْراً
And I testify you-asws were upon a proof from your-asws Lord-azwj! You-asws delivered whatever you-asws had been Commanded with, and stood with His-azwj Right, and ratified the ones who were before you-asws without weakness or hesitation! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws and abundant greetings! May Allah-azwj Reward you-asws goodly of being a truthful!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ الْجِهَادَ مَعَكَ جِهَادٌ وَ أَنَّ الْحَقَّ مَعَكَ وَ إِلَيْكَ وَ أَنْتَ أَهْلُهُ وَ مَعْدِنُهُ وَ مِيرَاثُ النُّبُوَّةِ عِنْدَكَ وَ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِكَ
I testify that the Jihad alongside you-asws is Jihad, and the truth is with you-asws and to you-asws, and you-asws are its rightful, and its mine, and the inheritance of Prophet-hood is with you-asws and with People-asws of your-asws Household!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ قَدْ بَلَّغْتَ وَ نَصَحْتَ وَ وَفَيْتَ وَ جَاهَدْتَ فِي سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَ الْمَوْعِظَةِ الْحَسَنَةِ وَ مَضَيْتَ لِلَّذِي كُنْتَ عَلَيْهِ شَهِيداً وَ مُسْتَشْهَداً وَ مَشْهُوداً فَصَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ وَ سَلَّمَ تَسْلِيماً
I testify you-asws have delivered, and advised, and fulfilled, and fought in the way of your-asws Lord-azwj with the wisdom and excellent preaching, and passed away for which you-asws had been upon as a martyr and a seeker of martyrdom, and witnessed! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws and abundant greetings!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ طُهْرٌ طَاهِرٌ مُطَهَّرٌ مِنْ طُهْرٍ طَاهِرٍ مُطَهَّرٍ طَهُرْتَ وَ طَهُرَتْ أَرْضٌ أَنْتَ بِهَا وَ طَهُرَ حَرَمُكَ
I testify you are a purifier, pure, purified, from a purifier, pure, purified! Pure are you-asws and pure is the ground you-asws are at, and pure is your-asws sanctuary!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَمَرْتَ بِالْقِسْطِ وَ دَعَوْتَ إِلَيْهِ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ أُمَّةً قَتَلَتْكَ أَشْرَارُ خَلْقِ اللَّهِ وَ كَفَرَتُهُ وَ إِنِّي أَسْتَشْفِعُ بِكَ إِلَى اللَّهِ رَبِّكَ وَ رَبِّي مِنْ جَمِيعِ ذُنُوبِي وَ أَتَوَجَّهُ بِكَ إِلَى اللَّهِ فِي حَوَائِجِي وَ رَغْبَتِي فِي أَمْرِ آخِرَتِي وَ دُنْيَايَ
I testify you-asws had instructed with the fairness and called to it, and I testify that the community which killed you are evilest creatures of Allah-azwj and their Kafirs, and I seek intercession through you-asws to Allah-azwj, your-asws Lord-azwj and my Lord-azwj, from entirety of my sins, and I divert through you-asws to Allah-azwj regarding my needs and my desires regarding matters of my Hereafter and my world!
ثُمَّ ضَعْ خَدَّكَ الْأَيْمَنَ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ هَذَا الْقَبْرِ وَ مَنْ فِيهِ وَ بِحَقِّ هَذِهِ الْقُبُورِ وَ مَنْ أَسْكَنْتَهَا أَنْ تَكْتُبَ اسْمِي عِنْدَكَ فِي أَسْمَائِهِمْ حَتَّى تُورِدَنِي مَوَارِدَهُمْ وَ تُصْدِرَنِي مَصَادِرَهُمْ إِنَّكَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
Then place your right cheek upon the grave and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by the right of this grave and the one in it, and by the right of these graves and the ones settled in it, to Write my name and their names in Your-azwj Presence until I arrive to their arrival, and my resource be their resources, You-azwj are Able upon all things!’
وَ تَقُولُ رَبِّ أَفْحَمَتْنِي ذُنُوبِي وَ قَطَعَتْ مَقَالَتِي فَلَا حُجَّةَ لِي وَ لَا عُذْرَ لِي فَأَنَا الْمُقِرُّ بِذُنُوبِي الْأَسِيرُ بِبَلِيَّتِي الْمُرْتَهَنُ بِعَمَلِي الْمُتَجَلِّدُ فِي خَطِيئَتِي الْمُتَحَيِّرُ عَنْ قَصْدِي الْمُنْقَطَعُ بِي قَدْ أَوْقَفْتُ
And you should say, ‘Lord-azwj! My sins have silenced me and cut off my speech, so I have no argument and no excuse. I am the one who admits my sins, and am imprisoned by my affliction, and held hostage by my deeds, and persistent in my wrongdoing, and confused in my purpose, and cut off in my path! Here I stand before You-azwj!
يَا رَبِّ نَفْسِي مَوْقِفَ الْأَشْقِيَاءِ الْأَذِلَّاءِ الْمُذْنِبِينَ الْمُجْتَرِئِينَ عَلَيْكَ بِوَعِيدِكَ يَا سُبْحَانَكَ أَيَّ جُرْأَةٍ اجْتَرَأْتُ عَلَيْكَ وَ أَيَّ تَغْرِيرٍ غَرَّرْتُ بِنَفْسِي وَ أَيَّ سَكْرَةٍ أَوْبَقَتْنِي وَ أَيَّ غَفْلَةٍ أَعْطَبَتْنِي مَا كَانَ أَقْبَحَ سُوءَ نَظَرِي وَ أَوْحَشَ فِعْلِي
O Lord-azwj! My soul stands in the place of the wretched, and the humiliated, and the sinful, those who dared to defy You-azwj despite Your-azwj Warnings. Glory be to You-azwj! What boldness I had in my defiance of You-azwj! What deception I have inflicted upon myself! What intoxication led to my ruin, and what heedlessness caused my destruction! How ugly was the way I looked at things, and how dreadful were my deeds!
يَا سَيِّدِي فَارْحَمْ كَبْوَتِي لِحُرِّ وَجْهِي وَ زَلَّةَ قَدَمِي وَ تَعْفِيرِي فِي التُّرَابِ خَدِّي وَ نَدَامَتِي عَلَى مَا فَرَطَ مِنِّي وَ أَقِلْنِي عَثْرَتِي وَ ارْحَمْ صَرْخَتِي وَ عَبْرَتِي وَ اقْبَلْ مَعْذِرَتِي وَ عُدْ بِحِلْمِكَ عَلَى جَهْلِي وَ بِإِحْسَانِكَ عَلَى خَطِيئَاتِي وَ بِعَفْوِكَ عَلَيَّ
O my Master! Mercy me on my fall for the sake of my dignity, and my misstep, and my face humbled in the dust! Have mercy on my regret for what I have neglected! Pardon my stumbles! Mercy me on my crying and my tears, and Accept my excuse, and Turn to me with Your-azwj Forbearance over my ignorance, with Your-azwj Kindness over my sins, and with Your-azwj Pardon upon me!
رَبِّ أَشْكُو إِلَيْكَ قَسَاوَةَ قَلْبِي وَ ضَعْفَ عَمَلِي فَارْتَحْ لِمَسْأَلَتِي فَأَنَا الْمُقِرُّ بِذَنْبِي الْمُعْتَرِفُ بِخَطِيئَتِي وَ هَا هَذِهِ يَدِي وَ نَاصِيَتِي أَسْتَكِينُ لَكَ بِالْقَوَدِ مِنْ نَفْسِي فَاقْبَلْ تَوْبَتِي وَ نَفِّسْ كُرْبَتِي وَ ارْحَمْ خُشُوعِي وَ خُضُوعِي وَ انْقِطَاعِي إِلَيْكَ
Lord-azwj! I complain to You-azwj of the cruelty of my heart, and weakness of my deeds, so Respond to my plea with Mercy. I am the one who admits my sin, and acknowledges my wrongdoing. Here are my hands and my forelock! I humble myself before You-azwj, surrendering my soul. So Accept my repentance, and relieve my distress, and have Mercy on my humility, and my submission, and my turning solely to You-azwj!
سَيِّدِي وَ أَسَفِي عَلَى مَا كَانَ مِنِّي وَ تَمَرُّغِي وَ تَعْفِيرِي فِي تُرَابِ قَبْرِ ابْنِ نَبِيِّكَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ فَأَنْتَ رَجَائِي وَ مُعْتَمَدِي وَ ظَهْرِي وَ عُدَّتِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ
My Master! How sorrowful I am for what has come from me, and for my rolling and humbling myself in the dust of the grave of a son-asws of Your-azwj Prophet-saww in front of You-azwj! You-azwj are my hope, and my reliance, and my support, and my provision. There is no god except You-azwj!’
ثُمَّ كَبِّرْ خَمْساً وَ ثَلَاثِينَ تَكْبِيرَةً ثُمَّ تَرْفَعُ يَدَيْكَ وَ تَقُولُ إِلَيْكَ يَا رَبِّ صَمَدْتُ مِنْ أَرْضِي وَ إِلَى ابْنِ نَبِيِّكَ قَطَعْتُ الْبِلَادَ رَجَاءً لِلْمَغْفِرَةِ
Then exclaim thirty-five exclamations of Takbeer. Then raise your hands and say, ‘To You-azwj, O Lord-azwj, I have come from my land and to a son-asws of Your-azwj Prophet-saww, cutting across the cities hoping for the Forgiveness!
فَكُنْ لِي يَا سَيِّدِي سَكَناً وَ شَفِيعاً وَ كُنْ بِي رَحِيماً وَ كُنْ لِي مَنْجًى يَوْمَ لا تَنْفَعُ الشَّفاعَةُ عِنْدَهُ إِلَّا لِمَنِ ارْتَضى يَوْمَ لَا تَنْفَعُ شَفاعَةُ الشَّافِعِينَ وَ يَوْمَ يَقُولُ أَهْلُ الضَّلَالَةِ مَا لَنا مِنْ شافِعِينَ وَ لا صَدِيقٍ حَمِيمٍ
So Be for me, O my Master, a Settler and an Intercessor, and Be for me Merciful, and Be for me a Saviour on a Day the intercession will not benefit in His Presence except the one He Permits for, [34:23], a Day So the intercession of intercessors will not benefit them [74:48], and a Day the strayed people will say, ‘So, there is none for us from the intercessors’ [26:100]!
فَكُنْ يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي مَقَامِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَبِّي لِي مُنْقِذاً فَقَدْ عَظُمَ جُرْمِي إِذَا ارْتَعَدَتْ فَرَائِصِي وَ أَخَذَ بِسَمْعِي وَ أَنَا مُنَكِّسٌ رَأْسِي بِمَا قَدَّمْتَ مِنْ سُوءِ عَمَلِي وَ أَنَا عَارٍ كَمَا وَلَدَتْنِي أُمِّي وَ رَبِّي يَسْأَلُنِي
On that Day, be a rescuer for me in my standing in front of my Lord-azwj, for my crimes are mighty, when my limbs tremble and my hearing is seized, and my head is lowered due to what I have sent ahead of my evil deeds, and I am bare just as my mother had given birth to me, and my Lord-azwj Questions me!
فَكُنْ لِي يَوْمَئِذٍ شَافِعاً وَ مُنْقِذاً فَقَدْ أَعْدَدْتُكَ لِيَوْمِ حَاجَتِي وَ يَوْمِ فَقْرِي وَ فَاقَتِي
So, on that Day, be an intercessor for me and a rescuer, for I am counting on you-asws for a Day of my need and Day of my poverty and my destitution!’
ثُمَّ ضَعْ خَدَّكَ الْأَيْسَرَ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ تَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْ تَضَرُّعِي فِي تُرَابِ قَبْرِ ابْنِ نَبِيِّكَ فَإِنِّي مَوْضِعُ رَحْمَةٍ يَا رَبِّ
Then place your left cheek upon the grave and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Mercy my beseeching in the soil of the grave of a son-asws of Your-azwj Prophet-saww, and I am in a place of Mercy, O Lord-azwj!’
وَ تَقُولُ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَبْرَأُ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ قَاتِلِكَ وَ مِنْ سَالِبِكَ يَا لَيْتَنِي كُنْتُ مَعَكَ فَأَفُوزَ فَوْزاً عَظِيماً وَ أَبْذُلَ مُهْجَتِي فِيكَ وَ أَقِيَكَ بِنَفْسِي وَ كُنْتُ فِيمَنْ أَقَامَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ حَتَّى يُسْفَكَ دَمِي مَعَكَ فَأَظْفَرَ مَعَكَ بِالسَّعَادَةِ وَ الْفَوْزِ بِالْجَنَّةِ
And you should say, ‘May by father and my mother be (sacrificed for) you-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! I disavow to Allah-azwj from your-asws killers, and from your-asws plunderers! Oh, I wish I had been with you-asws, so I could have succeeded with a mighty success, and expended my efforts regarding you-asws, and saved you-asws with myself, and could have been among the ones who had stood in front of you-asws until my blood would have been shed with you-asws, so I would have won with you-asws with the good fortune and the success with the Paradise!’
وَ تَقُولُ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ رَمَاكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ طَعَنَكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنِ احْتَزَّ رَأْسَكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ حَمَلَ رَأْسَكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ نَكَتَ بِقَضِيبِهِ بَيْنَ ثَنَايَاكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ أَبْكَى نِسَاءَكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ أَيْتَمَ أَوْلَادَكَ
And you should say, ‘May Allah-azwj Curse the one who shot (arrows) at you-asws! May Allah-azwj Curse the ones who had stabbed you-asws! May Allah-azwj Curse the one who cut off your-asws head!

لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ أَعَانَ عَلَيْكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ سَارَ إِلَيْكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ مَنَعَكَ مَاءَ الْفُرَاتِ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ غَشَّكَ وَ خَلَّاكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ سَمِعَ صَوْتَكَ فَلَمْ يُجِبْكَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ ابْنَ آكِلَةِ الْأَكْبَادِ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ ابْنَهُ وَ أَعْوَانَهُ وَ أَتْبَاعَهُ وَ أَنْصَارَهُ ابْنَ سُمَيَّةَ
May Allah-azwj Curse the one who assisted against you-asws! May Allah-azwj Curse the one who travelled to (fight) you-asws! May Allah-azwj Curse the one who prevented you-asws water of the Euphrates!

وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ جَمِيعَ قَاتِلِيكَ وَ قَاتِلِي أَبِيكَ وَ مَنْ أَعَانَ عَلَى قَتْلِكُمْ وَ حَشَا اللَّهُ أَجْوَافَهُمْ وَ بُطُونَهُمْ وَ قُبُورَهُمْ نَاراً وَ عَذَّبَهُمْ عَذَاباً أَلِيماً
And may Allah-azwj Curse entirety of your-asws killers and killer of your-asws father-asws, and one who assisted upon killing you-asws all, and may Allah-azwj Fill their interiors and their graves with fire and Punish them a painful Punishment!’
ثُمَّ تُسَبِّحُ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ أَلْفَ تَسْبِيحَةٍ مِنْ تَسْبِيحِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع فَإِنْ أَحْبَبْتَ تَحَوَّلْتَ إِلَى عِنْدِ رِجْلَيْهِ وَ تَدْعُو بِمَا قَدْ فَسَّرْتُ لَكَ ثُمَّ تَدُورُ مِنْ عِنْدِ رِجْلَيْهِ إِلَى عِنْدِ رَأْسِهِ
Then glorify by his-asws head a thousand glorifications from glorification of Amir Al-Momineen-asws. If you like you can transfer to be by his-asws legs and supplicate with what I have interpreted for you. Then rotate from by his-asws legs to be by his-asws head.
فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ سَبَّحْتَ وَ التَّسْبِيحُ تَقُولُ سُبْحَانَ مَنْ لَا تَبِيدُ مَعَالِمُهُ سُبْحَانَ مَنْ لَا تَنْقُصُ خَزَائِنُهُ سُبْحَانَ مَنْ لَا انْقِطَاعَ لِمُدَّتِهِ سُبْحَانَ مَنْ لَا يَنْفَدُ مَا عِنْدَهُ سُبْحَانَ مَنْ لَا اضْمِحْلَالَ لِفَخْرِهِ سُبْحَانَ مَنْ لَا يُشَاوِرُ أَحَداً فِي أَمْرِهِ سُبْحَانَ مَنْ لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُهُ
When you are free from the Salat, glorify, and the glorification is your saying, ‘Glory be to the One Whose landmarks do not fade! Glory be to the One Whose Awards to reduce! Glory be to the One Who there is not termination for His-azwj term! Glory be to the One whatever is with Him-azwj does not deplete! Glory be to the One there is no whither to His-azwj Pride! Glory be to the One Who does not consult anyone in His-azwj Commands! Glory be to the One there is no god apart from Him-azwj!’
ثُمَّ تَحَوَّلْ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ وَ ضَعْ يَدَيْكَ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ قُلْ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ثَلَاثاً صَبَرْتَ وَ أَنْتَ الصَّادِقُ الْمُصَدَّقُ قَتَلَ اللَّهُ مَنْ قَتَلَكُمْ بِالْأَيْدِي وَ الْأَلْسُنِ
Then transfer to be by his-asws legs and place your hands upon the grave, and say, ‘May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws, O Abu Abdullah-asws! (three times). You-asws were patient, and you-asws are the truthful, the ratified! May Allah-azwj Curse the ones who killed you-asws with the hands and the tongues!’
وَ تَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ الْأَرْبَابِ صَرِيخَ الْأَخْيَارِ إِنِّي عُذْتُ مَعَاذاً فَفُكَّ رَقَبَتِي مِنَ النَّارِ جِئْتُكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَافِداً إِلَيْكَ أَتَوَسَّلُ إِلَى اللَّهِ فِي جَمِيعِ حَوَائِجِي مِنْ أَمْرِ آخِرَتِي وَ دُنْيَايَ وَ بِكَ يَتَوَسَّلُ الْمُتَوَسِّلُونَ إِلَى اللَّهِ فِي جَمِيعِ حَوَائِجِهِمْ وَ بِكَ يُدْرِكُ أَهْلُ الثَّوَابِ مِنْ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ طَلِبَتَهُمْ
And you should say, ‘O Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of the lords, Listener of the good ones! I have sought refuge, a true refuge, so Liberate my neck from the Hellfire! I have come to you-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww as a delegate to you-asws, seeking means to Allah-azwj regarding entirety of my needs from matters of my Hereafter and my world, and through you-asws seekers of the means seek means to Allah-azwj regarding entirety of their needs, and through you-asws the people from the servants of Allah-azwj seeking Rewards achieve their search!
أَسْأَلُ وَلِيَّكَ وَ وَلِيَّنَا أَنْ يَجْعَلَ حَظِّي مِنْ زِيَارَتِكَ الصَّلَاةَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ وَ الْمَغْفِرَةَ لِذُنُوبِي اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْنَا مِمَّنْ تَنْصُرُهُ وَ تَنْتَصِرُ بِهِ لِدِينِكَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ
I ask your-asws Guardian and our Guardian to Make my share from visiting you-asws be the Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws, and the Forgiveness of my sins! O Allah-azwj! Make us from the one who help him-asws and achieve victory for Your-azwj religion in the world and the Hereafter!’
ثُمَّ تَضَعُ خَدَّكَ عَلَيْهِ وَ تَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ الْحُسَيْنِ اشْفِ صَدْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ الْحُسَيْنِ اطْلُبْ بِدَمِ الْحُسَيْنِ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ الْحُسَيْنِ انْتَقِمْ مِمَّنْ رَضِيَ بِقَتْلِ الْحُسَيْنِ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ الْحُسَيْنِ انْتَقِمْ مِمَّنْ خَالَفَ الْحُسَيْنَ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ الْحُسَيْنِ انْتَقِمْ مِمَّنْ فَرِحَ بِقَتْلِ الْحُسَيْنِ
Then place your cheek upon it and say, ‘O Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of Al-Husayn-asws! Heal the chest of Al-Husayn-asws! O Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of Al-Husayn-asws! Seek the blood of Al-Husayn-asws! O Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of Al-Husayn-asws! Avenge from the ones who are pleased with the killing of Al-Husayn-asws! O Allah-azwj, Lord of Al-Husayn-asws, Avenge from the ones opposed to Al-Husayn-asws! O Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of Al-Husayn-asws! Avenge from the ones who are joyous with the killing of Al-Husayn-asws!’
وَ تَبْتَهِلُ فِي اللَّعْنَةِ عَلَى مَنْ قَتَلَ الْحُسَيْنَ وَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع وَ تُسَبِّحُ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ أَلْفَ تَسْبِيحَةٍ مِنْ تَسْبِيحِ فَاطِمَةَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهَا فَإِنْ لَمْ تَقْدِرْ فَمِائَةَ تَسْبِيحَةٍ وَ تَقُولُ سُبْحَانَ ذِي الْعِزِّ الشَّامِخِ الْمُنِيفِ سُبْحَانَ ذِي الْجَلَالِ الْفَاخِرِ الْعَظِيمِ سُبْحَانَ ذِي الْمُلْكِ الْفَاخِرِ الْقَدِيمِ
And plead regarding the curses upon the ones who killed Al-Husayn-asws and Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and glorify by his-asws legs a thousand glorifications from glorifications of Fatima-asws, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon her-asws! If you are not able, then a hundred glorifications, and say, ‘Glory be to the One with the Loft, Sublime Might! Glory be to the One with the Pride-worthy Majesty, the Magnificent! Glory be to the One with the Pride-worthy Ancient Kingdom!
سُبْحَانَ ذِي الْمُلْكِ الْفَاخِرِ الْعَظِيمِ سُبْحَانَ مَنْ لَبِسَ الْعِزَّ وَ الْجَمَالَ سُبْحَانَ مَنْ تَرَدَّى بِالنُّورِ وَ الْوَقَارِ سُبْحَانَ مَنْ يَرَى أَثَرَ النَّمْلِ فِي الصَّفَا وَ خَفَقَانَ الطَّيْرِ فِي الْهَوَاءِ سُبْحَانَ مَنْ هُوَ هَكَذَا وَ لَا هَكَذَا غَيْرُهُ
Glory be to the One with the Pride-worthy Magnificent Kingdom! Glory be to the One Wearing the Mighty and the Beauty! Glory be to the One Wrapped with the Noor and the Dignity! Glory be to the One Who Sees impacts of the ant in the solid rock and flapping of the bird in the air! Glory be to the One Who is like that, and no other is like this!’
ثُمَّ صِرْ إِلَى قَبْرِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ فَهُوَ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع فَإِذَا وَقَفْتَ عَلَيْهِ فَقُلْ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ وَ ابْنُ خَلِيفَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنُ بِنْتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ مُضَاعَفَةً كُلَّمَا طَلَعَتْ شَمْسٌ أَوْ غَرَبَتْ
Then come to the grave of Ali Bin Al-Husayn-asws. It is by the legs of Al-Husayn Bin Ali-asws! When you pause at it, say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings, and son-asws of caliph of Rasool-Allah-saww, and son-asws of daughter-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings, a multiple every time the sun emerges or sets!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى رُوحِكَ وَ بَدَنِكَ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي مِنْ مَذْبُوحٍ وَ مَقْتُولٍ مِنْ غَيْرِ جُرْمٍ وَ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي دَمُكَ الْمُرْتَقَى بِهِ إِلَى حَبِيبِ اللَّهِ وَ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي مِنْ مُقَدَّمٍ بَيْنَ يَدِي أَبِيكَ يَحْتَسِبُكَ
The greeting be upon you-asws and upon your-asws soul and your-asws body! May my father and my mother (be sacrificed for) you-asws for a slaughtered and killed from without a crime; and may my father and my mother (be sacrificed for) you-asws, your-asws blood was ascended with to the Beloved of Allah-azwj; and may my father and my mother (be sacrificed for) you-asws, of having gone ahead to his-asws father-asws. He-asws will reckon you-asws!
وَ يَبْكِي عَلَيْكَ مُحْرَقاً عَلَيْكَ قَلْبُهُ يَرْفَعُ دَمَكَ بِكَفِّهِ إِلَى أَعْنَانِ السَّمَاءِ لَا تَرْجِعُ مِنْهُ قَطْرَةٌ وَ لَا تَسْكُنُ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ أَبِيكَ زَفْرَةٌ وَدَّعَكَ لِلْفِرَاقِ فَمَكَانُكُمَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مَعَ آبَائِكَ الْمَاضِينَ وَ مَعَ أُمَّهَاتِكَ فِي الْجِنَانِ مُنَّعَمِينَ أَبْرَأُ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِمَّنْ قَتَلَكَ وَ ذَبَحَكَ
And he-asws weeps over you-asws with a heart consumed in sorrow for you-asws! He-asws lifts your-asws blood in his-asws hand toward the heights of the sky, yet not a single drop returns! From your-asws father-asws, not a single sigh of grief quiets over you-asws. He-asws bade you farewell in parting, and your-asws place is with Allah alongside your-asws forefathers-asws who have passed, and with your-asws mothers-asws in bliss in the Gardens! I disavow to Allah-azwj from the ones who killed you-asws and slaughtered you-asws!’
ثُمَّ انْكَبَّ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ ضَعْ يَدَكَ عَلَيْهِ وَ قُلْ سَلَامُ اللَّهِ وَ سَلَامُ مَلَائِكَتِهِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ وَ أَنْبِيَائِهِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ عِبَادِهِ الصَّالِحِينَ عَلَيْكَ يَا مَوْلَايَ وَ ابْنَ مَوْلَايَ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
Then devoted upon the grave and place your hand upon it and say, ‘Greeting of Allah-azwj and greeting of His-azwj Angels of Proximity and of His-azwj Messenger Prophets-as, and of His-azwj righteous servants be upon you-asws, O my Master and son-asws of my Master, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!
صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى عِتْرَتِكَ وَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِكَ وَ آبَائِكَ وَ أَبْنَائِكَ وَ أُمَّهَاتِكَ الْأَخْيَارِ الْأَبْرَارِ الَّذِينَ أَذْهَبَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمُ الرِّجْسَ وَ طَهَّرَهُمْ تَطْهِيراً
May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws and upon your-asws family, and people of your-asws Household, and your-asws forefathers-asws and your-asws foremothers-asws, the goodly, the righteous, those Allah-azwj Kept the uncleanness away from them and Purified them-asws with a Purification!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ ابْنَ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ قَاتِلَكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنِ اسْتَخَفَّ بِحَقِّكُمْ وَ قَتَلَكُمْ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ بَقِيَ مِنْهُمْ وَ مَنْ مَضَى نَفْسِي فِدَاؤُكُمْ وَ لِمَضْجَعِكُمْ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ سَلَّمَ تَسْلِيماً
The greeting be upon you-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww and son-asws of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and son-asws of Al-Husayn Bin Ali-asws, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!

May Allah-azwj Curse the ones from them who remained, and ones who passed! May my soul be your-asws ransom, and your-asws shrine! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws all and abundant greetings!’
ثُمَّ ضَعْ خَدَّكَ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ قُلْ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا الْحَسَنِ ثَلَاثاً بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي أَتَيْتُكَ زَائِراً وَافِداً عَائِذاً مِمَّا جَنَيْتُ عَلَى نَفْسِي وَ احْتَطَبْتُ عَلَى ظَهْرِي وَ أَسْأَلُ وَلِيَّكَ وَ وَلِيِّي أَنْ يَجْعَلَ حَظِّي مِنْ زِيَارَتِكَ عِتْقَ رَقَبَتِي مِنَ النَّارِ وَ تَدْعُو بِمَا أَحْبَبْتَ
Then place your cheek upon the grave and say, ‘May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws O Abu Al-Hassan-asws! (three times). May my father and my mother be (sacrificed for) you-asws! I have come to you-asws as a visitor, a delegate seeking refuge from what I have sinned upon myself, and loaded upon my back, and I ask your-asws Guardian and my Guardian to Make my share from having visited you-asws, be liberation of my neck from the Hellfire!’, and supplicate with whatever you like.
ثُمَّ تَأْتِي قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع ثُمَّ تَدُورُ مِنْ خَلْفِهِ إِلَى عِنْدِ رَأْسِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع وَ صَلِّ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ تَقْرَأُ فِي الْأُولَى الْحَمْدَ وَ يس وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ الْحَمْدَ وَ الرَّحْمَنَ وَ إِنْ شِئْتَ صَلَّيْتَ خَلْفَ الْقَبْرِ وَ عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ أَفْضَلُ فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ فَصَلِّ مَا أَحْبَبْتَ إِلَّا أَنَّ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ رَكْعَتَيِ الزِّيَارَةِ لَا بُدَّ مِنْهُمَا عِنْدَ كُلِّ قَبْرٍ
Then come to the grave of Al-Husayn-asws, then rotate from behind him-asws to be by the head of Al-Husayn-asws, and pray two units Salat by his-asws head, reading in the first Surah Al Hamd and Surah Yaseen, and in the second Surah Al Hamd and Surah Al Rahman, and if you like you can pray behind the grave, and by his-asws head is better. When you are free, pray whatever you like except that the two units of Ziyarat, there is no escape from these by each grave.
فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ فَارْفَعْ يَدَكَ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا أَتَيْنَاهُ مُؤْمِنِينَ بِهِ مُسَلِّمِينَ لَهُ مُعْتَصِمِينَ بِحَبْلِهِ عَارِفِينَ بِحَقِّهِ مُقِرِّينَ بِفَضْلِهِ مُسْتَبْصِرِينَ بِضَلَالَةِ مَنْ خَالَفَهُ عَارِفِينَ بِالْهُدَى الَّذِي هُوَ عَلَيْهِ
When you are free from the Salat, raise your hand and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! We have come to him-asws believing in him-asws, submitting to him-asws, and holding on to his-asws rope, recognising his-asws right, accepting his-asws merits, being insightful of the straying of ones opposing him-asws, knowing the guidance which he-asws is upon!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أُشْهِدُكَ وَ أُشْهِدُ مَنْ حَضَرَنِي مِنْ مَلَائِكَتِكَ أَنِّي بِهِمْ مُؤْمِنٌ وَ أَنِّي بِمَنْ قَتَلَهُمْ كَافِرٌ
O Allah-azwj! I keep You-azwj as Witness, and I keeps as witnesses the ones from Your-azwj Angels who are present with me! I am a believer in them-asws and I deny the ones who killed them-asws!
اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ لِمَا أَقُولُ إِيمَاناً حَقِيقَةً فِي قَلْبِي وَ شَرِيعَةً فِي عَمَلِي
O Allah-azwj! Make Eman for what I am saying, a reality in my heart, and legislation in my deeds!
اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْنِي مِمَّنْ لَهُ مَعَ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع قَدَمٌ ثَابِتٌ وَ أَثْبِتْنِي فِيمَنِ اسْتُشْهِدَ مَعَهُ
O Allah-azwj! Make me from the ones having a firm footing with Al-Husayn Bin Ali-asws, and Affirm me among the ones who were martyred with him-asws!
اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنِ الَّذِينَ بَدَّلُوا نِعْمَتَكَ كُفْراً سُبْحَانَكَ يَا حَلِيمُ عَمَّا يَعْمَلُ الظَّالِمُونَ فِي الْأَرْضِ تَبَارَكْتَ وَ تَعَالَيْتَ يَا عَظِيمُ تَرَى عَظِيمَ الْجُرْمِ مِنْ عِبَادِكَ فَلَا تَعْجَلْ عَلَيْهِمْ تَعَالَيْتَ يَا كَرِيمُ
O Allah-azwj! Curse those who replaced Your-azwj bounties into Kufr! Glory be to You-azwj O Forbearing, from what the unjust ones are doing in the earth! Blessed are You-azwj and Exalted are You-azwj O Mighty! You-azwj can See the mighty crimes from Your-azwj servants! Do not Hasten it upon them! You-azwj are Exalted, O Benevolent!
أَنْتَ شَاهِدٌ غَيْرُ غَائِبٍ وَ عَالِمٌ بِمَا أَتَى إِلَى أَهْلِ صَفْوَتِكَ وَ أَحِبَّائِكَ مِنَ الْأَمْرِ الَّذِي لَا تَحْمِلُهُ سَمَاءٌ وَ لَا أَرْضٌ وَ لَوْ شِئْتَ لَانْتَقَمْتَ مِنْهُمْ وَ لَكِنَّكَ ذُو أَنَاةٍ وَ قَدْ أَمْهَلْتَ الَّذِينَ اجْتَرَءُوا عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى رَسُولِكَ وَ حَبِيبِكَ
You-azwj are Present, not Absent, and Know of what comes to Your-azwj elite people and Your-azwj loved ones, from matters which can neither be endured by a sky nor an earth, and had You-azwj so Desired, You-azwj could have Avenged from them, but You-azwj are with Patience and have Respited those who are audacious to You-azwj, and to Your-azwj Rasool-saww and Your-azwj Beloved!
فَأَسْكَنْتَهُمْ أَرْضَكَ وَ غَذَوْتَهُمْ بِنِعْمَتِكَ إِلَى أَجَلٍ هُمْ بَالِغُوهُ وَ وَقْتٍ هُمْ صَائِرُونَ إِلَيْهِ لِيَسْتَكْمِلُوا الْعَمَلَ الَّذِي قَدَّرْتَ وَ الْأَجَلَ الَّذِي أَجَّلْتَ لِتُخَلِّدَهُمْ فِي مَحَطٍّ وَ وَثَاقٍ وَ نَارٍ وَ حَمِيمٍ وَ غَسَّاقٍ وَ الضَّرِيعِ وَ الْأَحْرَاقِ وَ الْأَغْلَالِ وَ الْأَوْثَاقِ وَ غِسْلِينٍ وَ زَقُّومٍ وَ صَدِيدٍ مَعَ طُولِ الْمُقَامِ فِي أَيَّامِ لَظَى وَ فِي سَقَرَ الَّتِي لَا تُبْقِي وَ لَا تَذَرُ وَ فِي الْحَمِيمِ وَ الْجَحِيمِ
You-azwj Settled them in Your-azwj earth and Provided them with Your-azwj bounties up to a term which they will surely reach, and a time to which they are destined, so that they may complete the deeds You-azwj have Decreed and fulfil the appointed time You-azwj have set, to then be made eternal in a place of confinement and chains, in fire, and boiling water, and freezing cold, and thorny vegetation, and burning flames, and shackles and bindings, and pus, and the tree of ‘Zaqqoom’, and the scalding fluid, enduring long residence in the days of Blazing Fire and in ‘Saqar’ (Level of Hell), which spares none and leaves nothing, and in boiling liquid and Blazing Fire!’
ثُمَّ تَنْكَبُّ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ تَقُولُ يَا سَيِّدِي أَتَيْتُكَ زَائِراً مُوقَراً مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ أَتَقَرَّبُ إِلَى رَبِّي بِوُفُودِي إِلَيْكَ وَ بُكَائِي عَلَيْكَ وَ عَوِيلِي وَ حَسْرَتِي وَ أَسَفِي وَ بُكَائِي وَ مَا أَخَافُ عَلَى نَفْسِي رَجَاءَ أَنْ تَكُونَ لِي حِجَاباً وَ سَنَداً وَ كَهْفاً وَ حِرْزاً وَ شَافِعاً وَ وِقَايَةً مِنَ النَّارِ غَداً
Then devote upon the grave and say, ‘O my Chief! I have come to you-asws as a visitor accepting the sins! I draw closer to my Lord-azwj by my delegating to you-asws and my crying upon you-asws, and my wailing, and my regret, and my pity, and my weeping, and what I fear upon myself, hoping for you-asws to be a veil for me, and a support, and a shelter, and protection, and intercessor, and a saviour from the Hellfire tomorrow!
وَ أَنَا مِنْ مَوَالِيكُمْ الَّذِينَ أُعَادِي عَدُوَّكُمْ وَ أُوَالِي وَلِيَّكُمْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ أَحْيَا وَ عَلَيْهِ أَمُوتُ وَ عَلَيْهِ أُبْعَثُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ وَ قَدْ أَشْخَصْتُ بَدَنِي وَ وَدَّعْتُ أَهْلِي وَ بَعُدَتْ شُقَّتِي وَ أُؤَمِّلُ فِي قُرْبِكُمْ النَّجَاةَ وَ أَرْجُو فِي إِتْيَانِكُمُ الْكَرَّةَ وَ أَطْمَعُ فِي النَّظَرِ إِلَيْكُمْ وَ إِلَى مَكَانِكُمْ غَداً فِي جِنَانِ رَبِّي مَعَ آبَائِكُمُ الْمَاضِينَ
And I am from your-asws friends, those inimical to your-asws enemies and befriend your-asws friends! Upon that I live and upon it I shall die, and upon it I will be Resurrected, if Allah-azwj so Desires, and I have fatigued my body, and bidden farewell to my family, and remoteness of my dwelling, and wishing for the salvation in your-asws vicinity, and I hope for the return in my coming to you-asws all, and I am eager in looking at you-asws and to your-asws places tomorrow in the Gardens of my Lord-azwj, along with your-asws forefathers-asws of the past!’
وَ تَقُولُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَا حُسَيْنَ بْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ جِئْتُكَ مُسْتَشْفِعاً بِكَ إِلَى اللَّهِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْتَشْفِعُ إِلَيْكَ بِوَلَدِ حَبِيبِكَ وَ بِالْمَلَائِكَةِ الَّذِينَ يَضِجُّونَ عَلَيْهِ وَ يَبْكُونَ وَ يَصْرُخُونَ لَا يَفْتُرُونَ وَ لَا يَسْأَمُونَ وَ هُمْ مِنْ خَشْيَتِكَ مُشْفِقُونَ وَ مِنْ عَذَابِكَ حَذِرُونَ
And you should say, ‘O Abu Abdullah-asws! O Husayn-asws son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! I have come to you-asws seeking intercession with you-asws to Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! I seek intercession to You-azwj with a son-asws of Your-azwj Beloved and with the Angels, those who are clamouring to Him-azwj, and crying, and shrieking, neither taking a break nor getting tired, and they are fearful of fearing You-azwj, and they are cautious of Your-azwj Punishment!
لَا تُغَيِّرُهُمُ الْأَيَّامُ وَ لَا يَهْرَمُونَ فِي نَوَاحِي الْحَيْرِ يَشْهَقُونَ وَ سَيِّدُهُمْ يَرَى مَا يَصْنَعُونَ وَ مَا فِيهِ يَتَقَلَّبُونَ قَدِ انْهَمَلَتْ مِنْهُمُ الْعُيُونُ فَلَا تَرْقَأُ وَ اشْتَدَّ مِنْهُمُ الْحُزْنُ بِحُرْقَةٍ لَا تُطْفَأُ
Neither do the days change them, nor do they get old in the areas of the (Holy) enclosure! They gasp with grief, and their chief watches what they do and how they move within it. Tears flow endlessly from their eyes and do not cease, and their sorrow has intensified with a burning pain that does not extinguish!
ثُمَّ تَرْفَعُ يَدَيْكَ وَ تَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ مَسْأَلَةَ الْمِسْكِينِ الْمُسْتَكِينِ الذَّلِيلِ الَّذِي لَمْ يَرُدَّ بِمَسْكَنَتِهِ غَيْرُكَ فَإِنْ لَمْ تُدْرِكْهُ رَحْمَتُكَ عَطِبَ أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تُدَارِكَنِي بِلُطْفٍ مِنْكَ فَأَنْتَ الَّذِي لَا تُخَيِّبُ سَائِلَكَ وَ تُعْطِي الْمَغْفِرَةَ وَ تَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ
Then raise your hands and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj the requesting by the poor, the humble and lowly one, who finds no refuge in his destitution except with You-azwj! If Your-azwj Mercy does not reach him, he is doomed. I ask You-azwj to Encompass me with a kindness from You-azwj, for You-azwj are the One who does not disappoint those who ask of You-azwj! You-azwj Grant Forgiveness and Forgive the sins!
فَلَا أَكُونَنَّ يَا سَيِّدِي أَنَا أَهْوَنَ خَلْقِكَ عَلَيْكَ وَ لَا أَكُونُ أَهْوَنَ مَنْ وَفَدَ إِلَيْكَ بِابْنِ حَبِيبِكَ فَإِنِّي أَمَّلْتُ وَ رَجَوْتُ وَ طَمِعْتُ وَ زُرْتُ وَ اغْتَرَبْتُ رَجَاءً لَكَ أَنْ تُكَافِيَنِي إِذَا أَخْرَجْتَنِي مِنْ رَحْلِي فَأَذِنْتَ لِي بِالْمَسِيرِ إِلَى هَذَا الْمَكَانِ رَحْمَةً مِنْكَ وَ تَفَضُّلًا مِنْكَ يَا رَحْمَانُ يَا رَحِيمُ
So, do not let me, O my Master, be the most insignificant of Your-azwj creation in Your-azwj Sight, nor the most disregarded of those who come to You-azwj through the son-asws of Your-azwj Beloved, for I have hoped, and longed, and yearned, and visited, and journeyed from afar in hope that You-azwj would Reward me when You-azwj Brought me out from my home and Permitted me to travel to this place, as a Mercy and Favour from You-azwj, O Beneficent, O Merciful!’
وَ اجْتَهِدْ فِي الدُّعَاءِ مَا قَدَرْتَ عَلَيْهِ وَ أَكْثِرْ مِنْهُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ ثُمَّ تَخْرُجُ مِنَ السَّقِيفَةِ وَ تَقِفُ بِحِذَاءِ قُبُورِ الشُّهَدَاءِ وَ تُومِئُ إِلَيْهِمْ أَجْمَعِينَ وَ تَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَهْلَ الْقُبُورِ مِنْ أَهْلِ دِيَارِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
And make efforts in the supplication whatever you are able upon, and frequent from it, if Allah-azwj so Desires. Then go out from the rent and pause facing the graves of the martyrs and gesture toward them all and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws all, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings! The greeting be upon you-asws O people of the graves, from people of the houses of the Momineen!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِما صَبَرْتُمْ فَنِعْمَ عُقْبَى الدَّارِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَوْلِيَاءَ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَنْصَارَ اللَّهِ وَ أَنْصَارَ رَسُولِهِ وَ أَنْصَارَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ أَنْصَارَ ابْنِ رَسُولِهِ وَ أَنْصَارَ دِينِهِ
The greeting be upon you, due to your having been patient, so excellent is the end-result of the (goodly) abode [13:24]! The greeting be upon you O friends of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you O helpers of Allah-azwj, and helpers of His-azwj Rasool-saww, and helpers of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and helpers of a son-asws of His-azwj Rasool-saww, and helpers of His-azwj religion!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكُمْ أَنْصَارُ اللَّهِ كَمَا قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ كَأَيِّنْ مِنْ نَبِيٍّ قاتَلَ مَعَهُ رِبِّيُّونَ كَثِيرٌ فَما وَهَنُوا لِما أَصابَهُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَ ما ضَعُفُوا وَ مَا اسْتَكانُوا فَمَا ضَعُفْتُمْ وَ مَا اسْتَكَنْتُمْ حَتَّى لَقِيتُمُ اللَّهَ عَلَى سَبِيلِ الْحَقِّ
I testify you-asws are all helpers of Allah-azwj just as Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Said: And how many a Prophet has fought with whom were many battalions; so they did not languish due to what befell them in the Way of Allah, nor did they weaken, nor did they give up; [3:146]! You-asws did not weaken and did not give up until you-asws met Allah-azwj upon the way of truth!
صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ عَلَى أَرْوَاحِكُمْ وَ أَجْسَادِكُمْ أَبْشِرُوا بِمَوْعِدِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا خُلْفَ لَهُ وَ لَا تَبْدِيلَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُخْلِفُ وَعْدَهُ وَ اللَّهُ مُدْرِكٌ بِكُمْ ثَارَ مَا وَعَدَكُمْ أَنْتُمْ خَاصَّةُ اللَّهِ اخْتَصَّكُمُ اللَّهُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع
May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws and upon your-asws souls and your-asws bodies! Receive glad tidings with the Promise of Allah-azwj which there is no breaking for it, nor replacement! Surely Allah-azwj does not Break His-azwj Promised, and Allah-azwj will Realise the retaliation with you-asws what He-azwj has Promised you-asws! You-asws special ones of Allah-azwj! Allah-azwj has Chosen you all for Abu Abdullah-asws!
أَنْتُمْ الشُّهَدَاءُ وَ أَنْتُمُ السُّعَدَاءُ سَعِدْتُمْ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَ فُزْتُمْ بِالدَّرَجَاتِ مِنْ جَنَّاتٍ لَا يُطْعَنُ أَهْلُهَا وَ لَا يَهْرَمُونَ وَ رَضُوا بِالْمُقَامِ فِي دَارِ السَّلَامِ مَعَ مَنْ نَصَرْتُمْ
You-asws are the martyrs, and you-asws are the fortunate ones! You-asws are fortunate in the Presence of Allah-azwj and have won the ranks from the Gardens! Its people are neither taunted nor do they grow old, and they are contented with the staying in the House of Peace along with the one you-asws had helped!
جَزَاكُمُ اللَّهُ خَيْراً مِنْ أَعْوَانٍ جَزَاءَ مَنْ صَبَرَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص أَنْجَزَ اللَّهُ مَا وَعَدَكُمْ مِنَ الْكَرَامَةِ فِي جِوَارِهِ وَ دَارِهِ مَعَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ قَائِدِ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ
May Allah-azwj Recompense you-asws goodly as supporters, Recompense of the ones patient with Rasool-Allah-saww! Allah-azwj will fulfil what He-azwj has Promised you-asws of the honours in His-azwj neighbourhood and His-azwj house with the Prophets-as, and the Messengers-as, and Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and leader of the resplendent!
أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الَّذِي حَمَلَنِي إِلَيْكُمْ حَتَّى أَرَانِي مَصَارِعَكُمْ أَنْ يُرِيَنِيكُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ رِوَاءً مَرْوِيِّينَ وَ يُرِيَنِي أَعْدَاءَكُمْ فِي أَسْفَلِ دَرْكٍ مِنَ الْجَحِيمِ فَإِنَّهُمْ قَتَلُوكُمْ ظُلْماً وَ أَرَادُوا إِمَاتَةَ الْحَقِّ وَ سَلَبُوكُمْ لِابْنِ سُمَيَّةَ وَ ابْنِ آكِلَةِ الْأَكْبَادِ فَأَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يُرِيَنِيهِمْ ظِمَاءً مُظْمَئِينَ مُسَلْسَلِينَ مُغَلَّلِينَ يُسَاقُونَ إِلَى الْجَحِيمِ
I ask Allah-azwj Who Carried me to you-asws until He-azwj Showed me your-asws resting places, to Show you-asws all to me at the fountain, saturated, saturating others, and Show me your-asws enemies in lowest lever of the Blazing Fire, for they had killed you-asws unjustly and wanted to kill off the truth, and they plundered you-asws for Ibn Sumaya, and son of the liver-eater! I ask Allah-azwj to Show them as thirsty, parched, chained, shackled being driven to the Blazing Fire!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَنْصَارَ ابْنِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مِنِّي مَا بَقِيتُ وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ دَائِماً إِذَا فَنِيتُ وَ بُلِيتُ لَهْفِي عَلَيْكُمْ أَيُّ مُصِيبَةٍ أَصَابَتْ كُلَّ مَوْلًى لِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ لَقَدْ عَظُمَتْ وَ خُصَّتْ وَ جَلَّتْ وَ عَمَّتْ مُصِيبَتُكُمْ
The greeting be upon you-asws O helpers of son-asws of Rasool-Allah-azwj, from me for as long as I remain, and the greeting be upon you-asws constantly even when I perish and decay! My grief upon you-asws all, i.e. calamity afflicts every friend of Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww! Truly, your-asws calamity was mighty, and specific, and immense, and general!
أَنَا بِكُمْ لَجَزِعٌ وَ أَنَا بِكُمْ لَمُوجَعٌ مَحْزُونٌ وَ أَنَا بِكُمْ لَمُصَابٌ مَلْهُوفٌ هَنِيئاً لَكُمْ مَا أُعْطِيتُمْ وَ هَنِيئاً لَكُمْ مَا بِهِ حُيِّيتُمْ فَلَقَدْ بَكَتْكُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَ حَفَّتْكُمْ وَ سَكَنَتْ مُعَسْكَرَكُمْ وَ حَلَّتْ مَصَارِعَكُمْ وَ قَدَّسَتْ وَ صَفَّتْ بِأَجْنِحَتِهَا عَلَيْكُمْ لَيْسَ لَهَا عَنْكُمْ فِرَاقٌ إِلَى يَوْمِ التَّلَاقِ وَ يَوْمِ الْمَحْشَرِ وَ يَوْمِ الْمَنْشَرِ طَافَتْ عَلَيْكُمْ رَحْمَةٌ مِنَ اللَّهِ بَلَغْتُمْ بِهَا شَرَفَ الْآخِرَةِ أَتَيْتُكُمْ شَوْقاً وَ زُرْتُكُمْ خَوْفاً
I am truly anguished because of you-asws, and I am deeply pained, and sorrowful, and afflicted for your-asws sake! Blessed are you-asws for what you-asws were Granted, and Blessed are you-asws for the honour with which you-asws were received. Indeed, the Angels wept for you-asws, and surrounded you-asws, and resided in your-asws camp, and settled at your-asws places of martyrdom, and sanctified them, and spread their wings over you-asws! They will never part from you until the Day of Reunion, the Day of Gathering, the Day of Resurrection. Mercy from Allah-azwj has Encompassed you-asws, through which you-asws attained the nobility of the Hereafter. I have come to you-asws out of longing, and I have visited you-asws out of reverent fear!
أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يُرِيَنِيكُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ وَ فِي الْجِنَانِ مَعَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ الشُّهَداءِ وَ الصَّالِحِينَ وَ حَسُنَ أُولئِكَ رَفِيقاً
I ask Allah-azwj to Show you-asws all (to me) at the fountain and in the Gardens with the Prophets and the Truthful and the Martyrs and the Righteous; and a goodly company are they! [4:69]!’
ثُمَّ دُرْ فِي الْحَيْرِ وَ أَنْتَ تَقُولُ يَا مَنْ إِلَيْهِ وَفَدْتُ وَ إِلَيْهِ خَرَجْتُ وَ بِهِ اسْتَجَرْتُ وَ إِلَيْهِ قَصَدْتُ وَ إِلَيْهِ بِابْنِ نَبِيِّهِ تَقَرَّبْتُ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ مُنَّ عَلَيَّ بِالْجَنَّةِ وَ فُكَّ رَقَبَتِي مِنَ النَّارِ
Then roam in the (Holy) enclosure while you are saying, ‘O One to whom I have come as a guest, and to whom I have gone forth, and with whom I have sought refuge, and to whom I have directed myself, and through a son-asws of His-azwj Prophet-saww I have drawn near! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and Confer upon me with the Paradise and Liberate my neck from the Hellfire!
اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْ غُرْبَتِي وَ بُعْدَ دَارِي وَ ارْحَمْ مَسِيرِي إِلَيْكَ وَ إِلَى ابْنِ حَبِيبِكَ وَ اقْلِبْنِي مُفْلِحاً مُنْجِحاً قَدْ قَبِلْتَ مَعْذِرَتِي وَ خُضُوعِي وَ خُشُوعِي عِنْدَ إِمَامِي وَ سَيِّدِي وَ مَوْلَايَ
O Allah-azwj! Mercy my estrangement and the distance of my dwelling! Mercy my journey toward You-azwj and toward the son-asws of Your-azwj Beloved. Return me successful and prosperous, and having Accepted my excuse, and my humility, and my submissiveness before my Imam-asws, and my Chief, and my Master!
وَ ارْحَمْ صَرْخَتِي وَ بُكَائِي وَ هَمِّي وَ جَزَعِي وَ حُزْنِي وَ مَا قَدْ بَاشَرَ قَلْبِي مِنَ الْجَزَعِ عَلَيْهِ فَبِنِعْمَتِكَ عَلَيَّ وَ لُطْفِكَ لِي خَرَجْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَ بِتَقْوِيَتِكَ إِيَّايَ وَ صَرْفِكَ الْمَحْذُورَ عَنِّي وَ كِلَاءَتِكَ بِاللَّيْلِ وَ النَّهَارِ لِي وَ بِحِفْظِكَ وَ كَرَامَتِكَ لِي وَ كُلَّ بَحْرٍ قَطَعْتُهُ وَ كُلَّ وَادٍ فَلَاةٍ سَلَكْتُهَا وَ كُلَّ مَنْزِلٍ نَزَلْتُهُ فَأَنْتَ حَمَلْتَنِي فِي الْبَرِّ وَ الْبَحْرِ
Mercy my cry, and my weeping, and my sorrow, and my anguish, and my grief, and on the pain that has taken hold of my heart because of him-asws! By Your-azwj Grace upon me and Your-azwj Kindness to me, I came out to him-asws! Through Your-azwj strength given to me, and through Your-azwj Protection from harm, and through Your-azwj Guardianship over me by night and day, and through Your-azwj Preservation and honour Granted to me, and for every sea I crossed, and every barren valley I passed through, and every place I stayed in, it was You-azwj Who Carried me on land and sea.
وَ أَنْتَ الَّذِي بَلَّغْتَنِي وَ وَفَّقْتَنِي وَ كَفَيْتَنِي وَ بِفَضْلٍ مِنْكَ وَ وِقَايَةٍ بَلَغْتُ وَ كَانَتِ الْمِنَّةُ لَكَ عَلَيَّ فِي ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ وَ أَثَرِي مَكْتُوبٌ عِنْدَكَ وَ اسْمِي وَ شَخْصِي فَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَيَّ مَا أَبْلَيْتَنِي وَ اصْطَنَعْتَ عِنْدِي
You-azwj are the One who made me reach, who granted me success, who sufficed me. Through Your bounty and protection, I arrived. The Conferment was all Yours-azwj upon me in all of this. My-azwj traces are recorded with You-asws, as well as my name and my very self. For You-azwj is the Praise for what You-azwj have Bestowed upon me and Dealt with me!
اللَّهُمَّ فَارْحَمْ فَرَقِي مِنْكَ وَ مَقَامِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ وَ تَمَلُّقِي وَ اقْبَلْ مِنِّي تَوَسُّلِي إِلَيْكَ بِابْنِ حَبِيبِكَ وَ صَفْوَتِكَ وَ خِيَرَتِكَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ وَ تَوَجُّهِي إِلَيْكَ وَ أَقِلْنِي عَثْرَتِي وَ اقْبَلْ عَظِيمَ مَا سَلَفَ مِنِّي وَ لَا يَمْنَعْكَ مَا تَعْلَمُ مِنِّي مِنَ الْعُيُوبِ وَ الذُّنُوبِ وَ الْإِسْرَافِ عَلَى نَفْسِي
O Allah-azwj! Mercy my fear of You-azwj, and my standing before You-azwj, and my pleading to You-azwj! Accept from me my seeking nearness to You-azwj through the son-asws of Your-azwj beloved, and Your-azwj Chosen one, and the best of Your-azwj creation! Accept my turning toward You-azwj, and Pardon my slip, and Accept the great amount of my past shortcomings, and let not what You-azwj Know of my faults, and sins, and excesses against myself prevent You-azwj.
And if You-azwj are Displeased with me, then be Pleased with me. If You-azwj are Angry with me, then Turn to me in Forgiveness. Indeed, You-azwj are Able upon all things.
وَ إِنْ كُنْتَ لِي مَاقِتاً فَارْضَ عَنِّي وَ إِنْ كُنْتَ عَلَيَّ سَاخِطاً فَتُبْ عَلَيَ إِنَّكَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ اللَّهُمَ اغْفِرْ لِي وَ لِوالِدَيَ وَ ارْحَمْهُما كَما رَبَّيانِي صَغِيراً وَ اجْزِهِمَا عَنِّي خَيْراً
O Allah-azwj! Forgive me and my parents, and have Mercy on them as they raised me when I was small, and Reward them on my behalf with goodness.
اللَّهُمَّ اجْزِهِمَا بِالْإِحْسَانِ إِحْسَاناً وَ بِالسَّيِّئَاتِ غُفْرَاناً
O Allah-azwj! Reward them with the Favours for the favours, and Forgiveness for the evil deeds!
اللَّهُمَّ أَدْخِلْهُمَا الْجَنَّةَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ وَ حَرِّمْ وُجُوهَهُمَا عَنْ عَذَابِكَ وَ بَرِّدْ عَلَيْهِمَا مَضَاجِعَهُمَا وَ افْسَحْ لَهُمَا فِي قَبْرَيْهِمَا وَ عَرِّفْنِيهِمَا فِي مُسْتَقَرٍّ مِنْ رَحْمَتِكَ وَ جِوَارِ حَبِيبِكَ مُحَمَّدٍ ص.
O Allah-azwj! Admit them both into the Paradise by Your-azwj Mercy, and Prohibited their faces from Your-azwj Punishment, and Cool upon them their resting places, and Expand for them in their graves, and Make them known to me in a settlement of Your-azwj Mercy, and neighbourhood of Your-azwj Beloved Muhammad-saww!’’[215]

And it is reported from the Prophet-saww, it (Zareeh) is something being in the Hellfire resembling the thorn, bitterer than the aloe, and more stinky than the carcass, and of severer heat than the fire. Allah-azwj has Named it as ‘Zareeh’.[216]

(The book) ‘Basharat Al-Mustafa-saww’ – Muhammad Bin Shahriyar, from Muhammad Bin Muhammad Al Bursy, from Muhammad Bin Al-Husayn Al Qureyshi, from Ahmad Bin Ahmad Bin Humran, from Is’haq Bin Muhammad Bin Ali Al Muqry, from Ubeydullah Bin Muhammad Al Iyadi, from Umar Bin Mudrik, from Muhammad Bin Ziyad Al Makky, from Jareer Bin Abdul Hemeed, from Al Amsh, from Atiyya Al Owqy who said,
خَرَجْتُ مَعَ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ زَائِرَيْنِ قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع فَلَمَّا وَرَدْنَا كَرْبَلَاءَ دَنَا جَابِرٌ مِنْ شَاطِئِ الْفُرَاتِ فَاغْتَسَلَ ثُمَّ اتَّزَرَ بِإِزَارٍ وَ ارْتَدَى بِآخَرَ ثُمَّ فَتَحَ صُرَّةً فِيهَا سُعْدٌ فَنَثَرَهَا عَلَى بَدَنِهِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَخْطُ خُطْوَةً إِلَّا ذَكَرَ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى حَتَّى إِذَا دَنَا مِنَ الْقَبْرِ قَالَ أَلْمِسْنِيهِ فَأَلْمَسْتُهُ فَخَرَّ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ مَغْشِيّاً عَلَيْهِ فَرَشَشْتُ عَلَيْهِ شَيْئاً مِنَ الْمَاءِ
‘I went out along with Jabir Bin Abdullah Al-Ansary, visiting the grave of Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws. So, when we arrived at Karbala, Jabir went near to the banks of the Euphrates and washed. Then he wore a loincloth and covered it with another one (as a robe). Then he opened a bag wherein was perfume, so he applied it upon his body. Then he did not take a step except he mentioned Allah-azwj the Exalted until when he was close to the grave, he said, ‘Touch it’. So I touched it. He fell upon the grave fainting upon it. So I sprinkled some water upon him.
فَلَمَّا أَفَاقَ قَالَ يَا حُسَيْنُ ثَلَاثاً ثُمَّ قَالَ حَبِيبٌ لَا يُجِيبُ حَبِيبَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَ أَنَّى لَكَ بِالْجَوَابِ وَ قَدْ شُحِطَتْ أَوْدَاجُكَ عَلَى أَثْبَاجِكَ وَ فُرِّقَ بَيْنَ بَدَنِكَ وَ رَأْسِكَ
When he woke up, he said, ‘O Husayn-asws!’. Then he said, ‘A beloved is not answering his-asws beloved?’. Then he said, ‘And in what way would the answer be for you-asws, and your-asws blood flowed upon your-asws (Holy body) parts, and there was separation between your-asws body and your-asws head?
فَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ ابْنُ خَاتِمِ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ ابْنُ سَيِّدِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ ابْنُ حَلِيفِ التَّقْوَى وَ سَلِيلُ الْهُدَى وَ خَامِسُ أَصْحَابِ الْكِسَاءِ وَ ابْنُ سَيِّدِ النُّقَبَاءِ وَ ابْنُ فَاطِمَةَ سَيِّدَةِ النِّسَاءِ وَ مَا لَكَ لَا تَكُونُ هَكَذَا وَ قَدْ غَذَّتْكَ كَفُّ سَيِّدِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ رُبِّيتَ فِي حَجْرِ الْمُتَّقِينَ وَ رَضَعْتَ مِنْ ثَدْيِ الْإِيمَانِ وَ فُطِمْتَ بِالْإِسْلَامِ
I testify that you-asws are a son-asws of the Last of the Prophets-as, and a son-asws of the Chief of the Momineen, and a son-asws of the confederate of piety, and an offspring of Guidance, and one of the five of the companions of the Cloak, and a son-asws of the Chief of the Captains, and a son-asws of (Syeda) Fatima-asws Chieftess of the women. And how can you-asws not happen to be like that and the palm of the Chief of the Messengers-as fed you-asws, and you-asws were nourished in the laps of the pious, and breastfed from the breast of Eman, and were weaned by Al-Islam.
فَطِبْتَ حَيّاً وَ طِبْتَ مَيِّتاً غَيْرَ أَنَّ قُلُوبَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ غَيْرُ طَيِّبَةٍ لِفِرَاقِكَ وَ لَا شَاكَّةٍ فِي الْخِيَرَةِ لَكَ فَعَلَيْكَ سَلَامُ اللَّهِ وَ رِضْوَانُهُ َ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ مَضَيْتَ عَلَى مَا مَضَى عَلَيْهِ أَخُوكَ يَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا
You-asws were Blessed (when) alive, and Blessed (when) deceased, apart for it, the hearts of the Momineen are not Blessed due to your-asws separation, nor are they sceptical regarding the goodness for you-asws. So, the Greetings of Allah-azwj be upon you-asws, and His-azwj Pleasure. And I testify that you-asws went upon what your-asws brother Yahya Bin Zakariyya-as went upon’.
و ثُمَّ جَالَ بَصَرَهُ حَوْلَ الْقَبْرِ وَ قَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَيَّتُهَا الْأَرْوَاحُ الَّتِي حَلَّتْ بِفِنَاءِ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ أَنَاخَتْ بِرَحْلِهِ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكُمْ أَقَمْتُمُ الصَّلَاةَ وَ آتَيْتُمُ الزَّكَاةَ وَ أَمَرْتُمْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَ نَهَيْتُمْ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَ جَاهَدْتُمُ الْمُلْحِدِينَ وَ عَبَدْتُمُ اللَّهَ حَتَّى أَتَاكُمُ الْيَقِينُ وَ الَّذِي بَعَثَ مُحَمَّداً بِالْحَقِّ نَبِيّاً لَقَدْ شَارَكْنَاكُمْ فِيمَا دَخَلْتُمْ فِيهِ
Then he circled his sight around the grave and said, ‘The greetings be upon you-asws, O you souls which fell by the courtyard of Al-Husayn-asws, and knelt by his-asws departure. And I testify that you all established the Salat and gave the Zakat, and enjoined with the good and forbade from the evil, and you fought the apostates, and worshipped Allah-azwj until the certainty came. By the One-azwj Who Sent Muhammad-saww with the Truth, we are participants in what you entered into’.
قَالَ عَطِيَّةُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ يَا جَابِرُ كَيْفَ وَ لَمْ نَهْبِطْ وَادِياً وَ لَمْ نَعْلُ جَبَلًا وَ لَمْ نَضْرِبْ بِسَيْفٍ وَ الْقَوْمُ قَدْ فُرِّقَ بَيْنَ رُءُوسِهِمْ وَ أَبْدَانِهِمْ وَ أُوتِمَتْ أَوْلَادُهُمْ وَ أَرْمَلَتْ أَزْوَاجُهُمْ؟ فَقَالَ يَا عَطِيَّةُ سَمِعْتُ حَبِيبِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص يَقُولُ مَنْ أَحَبَّ قَوْماً حُشِرَ مَعَهُمْ وَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ عَمَلَ قَوْمٍ أُشْرِكَ فِي عَمَلِهِمْ
Atiyya said, ‘So I said to him, ‘O Jabir! How (can that be), and we have not descended into a valley and we did not climb a mountain and we did not strike with a sword, while the people, their heads were separated from their bodies, and their children were orphaned, and their wives were widowed?’ So he said, ‘O Atiyya! I heard my beloved Rasool-Allah-saww saying: ‘The one who loves a people would be Resurrected along with them, and the one who loves a deed of the people is a participant in their deed’.
وَ الَّذِي بَعَثَ مُحَمَّداً بِالْحَقِّ نَبِيّاً أَنَّ نِيَّتِي وَ نِيَّةَ أَصْحَابِي عَلَى مَا مَضَى عَلَيْهِ الْحُسَيْنُ ع وَ أَصْحَابُهُ خُذْنِي نَحْوَ إلى أَبْيَاتِ كُوفَانَ
By the One-azwj Who Sent Muhammad-saww with the Truth as a Prophet-saww! My intention and the intention of my companion is what Al-Husayn-asws and his-asws companions went upon. Take me to the site of Abyaat Kowfaan’.
فَلَمَّا صِرْنَا فِي بَعْضِ الطَّرِيقِ قَالَ يَا عَطِيَّةَ هَلْ أُوصِيكَ وَ مَا أَظُنُّ أَنَّنِي بَعْدَ هَذِهِ السَّفْرَةِ مُلَاقِيكَ أَحْبِبْ مُحِبَّ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ص مَا أَحَبَّهُمْ وَ أَبْغِضْ مُبْغِضَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ مَا أَبْغَضَهُمْ وَ إِنْ كَانَ صَوَّاماً قَوَّاماً وَ ارْفُقْ بِمُحِبِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ فَإِنَّهُ إِنْ تَزِلَّ لَهُ قَدَمٌ بِكَثْرَةِ ذُنُوبِهِ ثَبَتَتْ لَهُ أُخْرَى بِمَحَبَّتِهِمْ فَإِنَّ مُحِبَّهُمْ يَعُودُ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَ مُبْغِضَهُمْ يَعُودُ إِلَى النَّارِ.
When we came to be in one of the roads, he said, ‘O Atiyya! Shall I advise to you, and I don’t think that after this journey I shall be meeting you (again)? Love the one who loves the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww what I love them, and hate the one who hates the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww what I hate them, and even if he was Fasting, standing (for) Salat; and be kind with the one who loves Muhammad-saww and the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, for it is such that his foot will not waver due to the abundance of his sins, the other one would be affirmed for him due to his love for them-asws, returning him to the Paradise, and the one who hates them-as would be returning to the Fire!’’[217]
32- مصبا، المصباحين رَوَى لَنَا جَمَاعَةٌ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ قُضَاعَةَ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ الْجَمَّالِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ قَالَ: اسْتَأْذَنْتُ الصَّادِقَ ع لِزِيَارَةِ مَوْلَايَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع وَ سَأَلْتُهُ أَنْ يُعَرِّفَنِي مَا أَعْمَلُ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ يَا صَفْوَانُ صُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ قَبْلَ خُرُوجِكَ وَ اغْتَسِلْ فِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ ثُمَّ اجْمَعْ إِلَيْكَ أَهْلَكَ ثُمَّ قُلِ
(The book) ‘Al Misbaheen’ – It is reported to us by a group, from Abu Abdullah Bin Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Abdullah Bin Quza’a Bin Safwan Bin Mihran Al Jammal, from his father, from his grandfather, from Sahwan who said,
‘I sought permission of Al-Sadiq-asws to visit my master Al-Husayn-asws and asked him-asws to introduce to me what I should be working upon. He-asws said: ‘O Safwan! Fast three days before your going out, and bathe during the third day, then gather your family members to you, then say: –
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي اسْتَوْدَعْتُ الْيَوْمَ نَفْسِي وَ أَهْلِي وَ مَالِي وَ وُلْدِي وَ مَنْ كَانَ مِنِّي بِسَبِيلٍ الشَّاهِدَ مِنْهُمْ وَ الْغَائِبَ
‘O Allah-azwj! Today I entrust myself, and my family, and my wealth, and my children, and the one who was from me with a way, the present from them and the absent!
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ احْفَظْنَا بِحِفْظِ الْإِيمَانِ وَ احْفَظْ عَلَيْنَا
O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and Protect us with protection of the Eman and Preserve it upon us!
اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْنَا فِي حِرْزِكَ وَ لَا تَسْلُبْنَا نِعْمَتَكَ وَ لَا تُغَيِّرْ مَا بِنَا مِنْ عَافِيَتِكَ وَ زِدْنَا مِنْ فَضْلِكَ إِنَّا إِلَيْكَ رَاغِبُونَ
O Allah-azwj! Make us in Your-azwj Protection and do not Strip us of Your-azwj bounties, and do not Change what well-being there is with us, and Increase us from Your-azwj Grace, we are desirous to You-azwj!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ وَعْثَاءِ السَّفَرِ وَ مِنْ كَآبَةِ الْمُنْقَلَبِ وَ مِنْ سُوءِ الْمَنْظَرِ فِي النَّفْسِ وَ الْأَهْلِ وَ الْمَالِ وَ الْوَلَدِ
O Allah-azwj! I seek Refuge with You-azwj from hardships of the journey, and from gloom of the transfer, and from the evil scenarios regarding the self, and the family, and the wealth and the children!
اللَّهُمَّ ارْزُقْنَا حَلَاوَةَ الْإِيمَانِ وَ بَرْدَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ وَ آمِنَّا مِنْ عَذَابِكَ إِنَّا إِلَيْكَ رَاغِبُونَ وَ آتِنا فِي الدُّنْيا حَسَنَةً وَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَ قِنا عَذابَ النَّارِ وَ آتِنا مِنْ لَدُنْكَ رَحْمَةً إِنَّكَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
O Allah-azwj! Grace us the sweetness of Eman and the coolness of Forgiveness, and security from Your-saww Punishment! We are desirous to You-azwj, and Grant us good in the world and good in the Hereafter, and Save us from the Punishment of the Fire [2:201], and ‘Our Lord! Give us a Mercy from You [18:10], Surely You-azwj are Able upon all things!’
فَإِذَا أَتَيْتَ الْفُرَاتَ يَعْنِي شَرِيعَةَ الصَّادِقِ ع بِالْعَلْقَمِيِّ فَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ خَيْرُ مَنْ وَفَدَتْ إِلَيْهِ الرِّجَالُ وَ أَنْتَ سَيِّدِي أَكْرَمُ مَقْصُودٍ وَ أَفْضَلُ مَزُورٍ وَ قَدْ جَعَلْتَ لِكُلِّ زَائِرٍ كَرَامَةً وَ لِكُلِّ وَافِدٍ تُحْفَةً
When you come to the Euphrates, meaning the street of Al-Sadiq-asws at Al-Alqamah, say, ‘O Allah-azwj! You-azwj are Best of the ones the men can delegate to, and You-azwj, are my Master, the most Honourable of the ones aimed to, and Best of the ones visited, and You-azwj have Made prestige to be for every visitor, and a gift for every delegate!
فَأَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ تُحْفَتَكَ إِيَّايَ فَكَاكَ رَقَبَتِي مِنَ النَّارِ وَ قَدْ قَصَدْتُ وَلِيَّكَ وَ ابْنَ نَبِيِّكَ وَ صَفِيَّكَ وَ ابْنَ صَفِيِّكَ وَ نَجِيبَكَ وَ ابْنَ نَجِيبِكَ وَ حَبِيبَكَ وَ ابْنَ حَبِيبِكَ
I ask You-azwj to Make Your-azwj Gift to me being liberation of my neck from the Hellfire, and I have aimed to Your-azwj Guardian and son-asws of Your-azwj Prophet-saww, and Your-azwj elite and son-asws of Your-azwj elite, and Your-azwj noble one and son-asws of Your-azwj noble one, and Your-azwj Beloved and son-asws of Your-azwj Beloved!
اللَّهُمَّ فَاشْكُرْ سَعْيِي وَ ارْحَمْ مَسِيرِي إِلَيْكَ بِغَيْرِ مَنٍّ مِنِّي عَلَيْكَ بَلْ لَكَ الْمَنُّ عَلَيَّ إِذْ جَعَلْتَ لِيَ السَّبِيلَ إِلَى زِيَارَتِهِ وَ عَرَّفْتَنِي فَضْلَهُ وَ حَفِظْتَنِي فِي اللَّيْلِ وَ النَّهَارِ حَتَّى بَلَّغْتَنِي هَذَا الْمَكَانَ
O Allah-azwj! Appreciate my striving and Mercy my journey to You-azwj without any conferment from me upon You-azwj, but for You-azwj is the Conferment upon me when You-azwj Made the way for me to visit him-asws, and Introduced me to his-asws merits, and Protected me during the night and the day until You-azwj Made me reach this place!
اللَّهُمَّ فَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَى نَعْمَائِكَ كُلِّهَا وَ لَكَ الشُّكْرُ عَلَى مِنَنِكَ كُلِّهَا
O Allah-azwj! For You-azwj is the Praise upon Your-azwj bounties, all of them, and for You-azwj is the thanks upon Your-azwj Conferment, all of them!’
ثُمَّ اغْتَسِلْ مِنَ الْفُرَاتِ فَإِنَّ أَبِي حَدَّثَنِي عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِنَّ ابْنِي هَذَا الْحُسَيْنَ يُقْتَلُ بَعْدِي عَلَى شَاطِئِ الْفُرَاتِ فَمَنْ زَارَهُ وَ اغْتَسَلَ مِنَ الْفُرَاتِ تَسَاقَطَتْ خَطَايَاهُ كَهَيْئَةِ يَوْمَ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ
Then bathe from the Euphrates, for my-asws father-asws narrated to me-asws from his-asws forefathers-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘This son-asws of mine will be killed after me-saww on the riverbank of the Euphrates. The one who visits him-asws and bathes from the Euphrates, his misdeeds will fall off for him to be like the day his mother had given him birth.
فَإِذَا اغْتَسَلْتَ فَقُلْ فِي غُسْلِكَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ بِاللَّهِ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْهُ نُوراً وَ طَهُوراً وَ حِرْزاً وَ شِفَاءً مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ وَ آفَةٍ وَ سُقْمٍ وَ عَاهَةٍ
When you have bathed, say during your bathing, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj, and by Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! Make it a Noor and cleansing, and protection, and healing from every illness and defect, and sickness and disability!
اللَّهُمَّ طَهِّرْ بِهِ قَلْبِي وَ اشْرَحْ بِهِ صَدْرِي وَ سَهِّلْ بِهِ أَمْرِي
O Allah-azwj! Purify my heart with it, and Expand my chest with it, and Facilitate my affairs by it!’
فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنْ غُسْلِكَ فَالْبَسْ ثَوْبَيْنِ طَاهِرَيْنِ وَ صَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ خَارِجَ الْمَشْرَعَةِ وَ هُوَ الْمَكَانُ الَّذِي قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى وَ فِي الْأَرْضِ قِطَعٌ مُتَجاوِراتٌ وَ جَنَّاتٌ مِنْ أَعْنابٍ وَ زَرْعٌ وَ نَخِيلٌ صِنْوانٌ وَ غَيْرُ صِنْوانٍ يُسْقى بِماءٍ واحِدٍ وَ نُفَضِّلُ بَعْضَها عَلى بَعْضٍ فِي الْأُكُلِ
When you are free from your bathing, wear to clean clothes and pray two units Salat outside the water holes, and it is the place which Allah-azwj the Exalted Said: And in the earth there are neighbouring tracts and gardens of grapes cultivated, and single-rooted palm trees other than single-rooted, being irrigated by one water source, and We Prefer some of it upon the others regarding the eating. [13:4].
فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنْ صَلَاتِكَ فَتَوَجَّهْ نَحْوَ الْحَائِرِ وَ عَلَيْكَ السَّكِينَةَ وَ الْوَقَارَ وَ قَصِّرْ خُطَاكَ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى يَكْتُبُ لَكَ بِكُلِّ خُطْوَةٍ حَجَّةً وَ عُمْرَةً وَ سِرْ خَاشِعاً بَاكِيَةً عَيْنُكَ وَ أَكْثِرْ مِنَ التَّكْبِيرِ وَ التَّهْلِيلِ وَ الثَّنَاءِ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى نَبِيِّهِ ص وَ الصَّلَاةِ عَلَى الْحُسَيْنِ خَاصَّةً وَ لَعْنِ مَنْ قَتَلَهُ وَ الْبَرَاءَةِ مِمَّنْ أَسَّسَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ
When you are free from your Salat, go ahead towards the (Holy) enclosure, and upon you should be the calmness and the dignity, and shorten your steps, for Allah-azwj the Exalted will Write for you with every step taken, a Hajj and an Umrah, and walk fearfully, your eyes crying, and frequent from the exclamations of Takbeer, and extollations of the Oneness, and the laudation upon Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, and the Salawaat upon His-azwj Prophets-saww, and the Salawaat upon Al-Husayn-asws in particular, and curse the ones who killed him-asws, and the disavowing from the one who laid the foundation for it!
فَإِذَا أَتَيْتَ بَابَ الْحَائِرِ فَقِفْ وَ قُلْ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ كَبِيراً وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كَثِيراً وَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ بُكْرَةً وَ أَصِيلًا الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي هَدانا لِهذا وَ ما كُنَّا لِنَهْتَدِيَ لَوْ لا أَنْ هَدانَا اللَّهُ لَقَدْ جاءَتْ رُسُلُ رَبِّنا بِالْحَقِ
When you come to the door of the (Holy) enclosure and say, ‘Allah-azwj is Greatest, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj a lot, and Glory be to Allah-azwj morning and evening! ‘The Praise is for Allah Who Guided us to this, and we would not have been rightly Guided if Allah had not Guided us. Rasools of our Lord had come with the Truth’ [7:43]!’
ثُمَّ قُلْ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا خَاتَمَ النَّبِيِّينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا سَيِّدَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حَبِيبَ اللَّهِ
Then say, ‘The greeting be upon you-saww, O Rasool-Allah-saww! The greeting be upon you-saww O Prophet-saww of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-saww O last of the Prophets-as! The greeting be upon you-saww O chief of the Messengers-as! The greeting be upon you-saww O Beloved of Allah-azwj!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا سَيِّدَ الْوَصِيِّينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا قَائِدَ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ فَاطِمَةَ سَيِّدَةِ نِسَاءِ الْعَالَمِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى الْأَئِمَّةِ مِنْ وُلْدِكَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَصِيَّ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
The greeting be upon you-asws O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws O Chief of the successors-as! The greeting be upon you-asws O leader of the resplendent! The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of (Syeda) Fatima-asws Chieftess of women of the worlds! The greeting be upon you-asws and upon the Imams-asws from your-asws sons-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws O Successor-asws of Amir Al-Momineen-asws!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الصِّدِّيقُ الشَّهِيدُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا مَلَائِكَةَ اللَّهِ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِي هَذَا الْمَقَامِ الشَّرِيفِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا مَلَائِكَةَ رَبِّي الْمُحْدِقِينَ بِقَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنِّي أَبَداً مَا بَقِيتُ وَ بَقِيَ اللَّيْلُ وَ النَّهَارُ
The greeting be upon you-asws O the truthful, the martyr! The greeting be upon you-asws O Angels of Allah-azwj resident in this noble place! The greeting be upon you-asws O Angels of my Lord-azwj gazing at the grave of Al-Husayn-asws!

ثُمَّ تَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَبْدُكَ وَ ابْنُ عَبْدِكَ وَ ابْنُ أَمَتِكَ الْمُقِرُّ بِالرِّقِّ وَ التَّارِكُ لِلْخِلَافِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ الْمُوَالِي لِوَلِيِّكُمْ وَ الْمُعَادِي لِعَدُوِّكُمْ قَصَدَ حَرَمَكَ وَ اسْتَجَارَ بِمَشْهَدِكَ وَ تَقَرَّبَ إِلَيْكَ بِقَصْدِكَ
Then you should say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O Abu Abdullah-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, Your-azwj servant and son-asws of Your-azwj servant, and son-asws of Your maid, the acknowledger of the servitude and avoiding disputing against you-asws, showing loyalty to Your-azwj Guardian and enmity toward Your-azwj enemy, has come to your-asws sanctuary, and sought refuge at your-asws shrine, and drawn near to you-asws through his approach to you-asws!
أَ أَدْخُلُ يَا سَيِّدَ الْوَصِيِّينَ أَ أَدْخُلُ يَا فَاطِمَةُ سَيِّدَةَ نِسَاءِ الْعَالَمِينَ أَ أَدْخُلُ يَا مَوْلَايَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَ أَدْخُلُ يَا مَوْلَايَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ
Can I enter, O chief of the successors-as? Can I enter O (Syeda) Fatima-asws chieftess of women of the worlds? Can I enter O my master, O Abu Abdullah-asws! Can I enter O my master, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww?’
فَإِنْ خَشَعَ قَلْبُكَ وَ دَمَعَتْ عَيْنُكَ فَهُوَ عَلَامَةُ الْإِذْنِ فَادْخُلْ ثُمَّ قَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الْوَاحِدِ الْأَحَدِ الْفَرْدِ الصَّمَدِ الَّذِي هَدَانِي لِوَلَايَتِكَ وَ خُصَّنِي بِزِيَارَتِكَ وَ سَهِّلْ لِي قَصْدَكَ
If your heart is fearful and your eyes shed tears, it is a sign of the permission, so enter, then say, ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj the One, the First, the Unique, the Non-hollow Who Guided me to your-asws Wilayah, and Particularised me with visiting you-asws, and Facilitated for me to aim to you-asws!’
ثُمَّ تَأْتِي بَابَ الْقُبَّةِ وَ قِفْ مِنْ حَيْثُ يَلِي الرَّأْسَ وَ قُلْ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ آدَمَ صَفْوَةِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ نُوحٍ نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ مُوسَى كَلِيمِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ عِيسَى رُوحِ اللَّهِ
Then come to the door of the dome and pause from where it follows the (Holy) head and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Adam-as elite of Allah-azwj!

أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ قَدْ أَقَمْتَ الصَّلَاةَ وَ آتَيْتَ الزَّكَاةَ وَ أَمَرْتَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَ نَهَيْتَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَ أَطَعْتَ اللَّهَ وَ رَسُولَهُ حَتَّى أَتَاكَ الْيَقِينُ فَلَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً قَتَلَتْكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً ظَلَمَتْكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً سَمِعَتْ بِذَلِكَ فَرَضِيَتْ بِهِ
I testify you-asws have established the Salat, and gave the Zakat, and instructed with the good and forbade from the evil, and obeyed Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww until the certainty (death) came to you-asws! May Allah-azwj Curse the community which killed you-asws, and may Allah-azwj Curse the community which oppressed you-asws, and may Allah-azwj Curse the community which heard that and was pleased with it!
يَا مَوْلَايَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ كُنْتَ نُوراً فِي الْأَصْلَابِ الشَّامِخَةِ وَ الْأَرْحَامِ الْمُطَهَّرَةِ لَمْ تُنَجِّسْكَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةُ بِأَنْجَاسِهَا وَ لَمْ تُلْبِسْكَ مُدْلَهِمَّاتِ ثِيَابِهَا
O my master, O Abu Abdullah-asws! I testify you-asws were Noor in the lofty lineage and the pure wombs and were not dirtied by the uncleanness of the pre-Islamic period with their uncleanness, and the darkness of its clothing did not cover you-asws!
وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ مِنْ دَعَائِمِ الدِّينِ وَ أَرْكَانِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ الْإِمَامُ الْبَرُّ التَّقِيُّ الرَّضِيُّ الزَّكِيُّ الْهَادِي الْمَهْدِيُّ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ الْأَئِمَّةَ مِنْ وُلْدِكَ كَلِمَةُ التَّقْوَى وَ أَعْلَامُ الْهُدَى وَ الْعُرْوَةُ الْوُثْقَى وَ الْحُجَّةُ عَلَى أَهْلِ الدُّنْيَا
And I testify you-asws are from the pillars of religion, and foundations of the Momineen, and I testify you-asws are the Imam-asws, the righteous, the pious, the contented, the pure, the guide, the Guided; and I testify that the Imams-asws from your-asws sons-asws are the words of piety, and the flags of guidance, and the firmest handholds, and the Divine Authorities upon people of the world!
وَ أُشْهِدُ اللَّهَ وَ مَلَائِكَتَهُ وَ أَنْبِيَاءَهُ وَ رُسُلَهُ أَنِّي بِكُمْ مُؤْمِنٌ وَ بِإِيَابِكُمْ مُوقِنٌ بِشَرَائِعِ دِينِي وَ خَوَاتِيمِ عَمَلِي وَ قَلْبِي لِقَلْبِكُمْ سِلْمٌ وَ أَمْرِي لِأَمْرِكُمْ مُتَّبِعٌ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ عَلَى أَرْوَاحِكُمْ وَ عَلَى أَجْسَادِكُمْ وَ عَلَى شَاهِدِكُمْ وَ عَلَى غَائِبِكُمْ وَ عَلَى ظَاهِرِكُمْ وَ عَلَى بَاطِنِكُمْ
And I keep Allah-azwj and His-azwj Angels and His-azwj Prophets-as and His-azwj Messengers-as as witnesses, that I am a believer in you-asws and of your-asws return, convinced of the laws of my religion and the outcome of my deeds, and my heart submits to your-asws hearts and my affairs follow your-asws affairs! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws and upon your-asws souls and upon your-asws bodies, and upon your-asws present ones and your-asws absent ones, and upon your-asws apparent and upon your-asws hidden one!
ثُمَّ انْكَبَّ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ قَبِّلْهُ وَ قُلْ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ لَقَدْ عَظُمَتِ الرَّزِيَّةُ وَ جَلَّتِ الْمُصِيبَةُ بِكَ عَلَيْنَا وَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ أَهْلِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ فَلَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً أَسْرَجَتْ وَ أَلْجَمَتْ وَ تَهَيَّأَتْ لِقِتَالِكَ
Then devote upon the grave and kiss it, and say, ‘May my father and my mother be (sacrificed for) you-asws O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! May my father and my mother be (sacrificed for) you-asws O Abu Abdullah-asws! The calamity has become mighty and the difficulty of you-asws is immense upon us and upon the entirety of people of the skies and the earth! May Allah-azwj Curse the community which saddled, and bridled and prepared for battling you-asws!
يَا مَوْلَايَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَصَدْتُ حَرَمَكَ وَ أَتَيْتُ إِلَى مَشْهَدِكَ أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ بِالشَّأْنِ الَّذِي لَكَ عِنْدَهُ وَ بِالْمَحَلِّ الَّذِي لَكَ لَدَيْهِ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مَعَكُمْ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ
O my master, O Abu Abdullah-asws! I have aimed to your-asws sanctuary and have come to your-asws Shrine! I ask Allah-azwj due to the glory which is for you-asws in His-azwj Presence, and by the position which is for you-asws with You-azwj, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Make me with you-asws all in the world and the Hereafter!’
ثُمَّ قُمْ فَصَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ عِنْدَ الرَّأْسِ اقْرَأْ فِيهِمَا مَا أَحْبَبْتَ فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنْ صَلَاتِكَ فَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي صَلَّيْتُ وَ رَكَعْتُ وَ سَجَدْتُ لَكَ وَحْدَكَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ لِأَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ وَ الرُّكُوعَ وَ السُّجُودَ لَا تَكُونُ إِلَّا لَكَ لِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ
Then stand and pray two units Salat by the head, reading in these whatever you like. When you are free from your Salat, say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I have prayed, and performed Ruk’u and Sajdah to You-azwj Alone, there is no associate for you-asws, and the Ruk’u and the Sajdah cannot be except to You-azwj, because You-asws are Allah-azwj, there is no god except You-azwj!
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَبْلِغْهُمْ عَنِّي أَفْضَلَ الصَّلَاةِ وَ التَّحِيَّةِ وَ ارْدُدْ عَلَيَّ مِنْهُمُ السَّلَامَ
O Allah-azwj! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and Deliver to them-asws from me the best Salawaat, and the greetings, and Respond unto me from them-asws the greeting!
اللَّهُمَّ فَهَاتَانِ الرَّكْعَتَانِ هَدِيَّةٌ مِنِّي إِلَى مَوْلَايَ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع
O Allah-azwj! These two units (of Salat) are a gift from me to my master Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws!
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ وَ تَقَبَّلْهَا مِنِّي وَ اجْزِنِي عَلَى ذَلِكَ بِأَفْضَلِ أَمَلِي وَ رَجَائِي فِيكَ وَ فِي وَلِيِّكَ يَا وَلِيَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws, and Accept it from me and Reward me upon that with the best of my wishes, and my hopes in You-azwj, and in Your-azwj Guardian, O Guardian of the Momineen!’
ثُمَّ قُمْ وَ صِرْ إِلَى عِنْدِ رِجْلَيِ الْقَبْرِ وَ قِفْ عِنْدَ رَأْسِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع وَ قُلْ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ الْحُسَيْنِ الشَّهِيدِ
Then stand and come to be by (Holy) legs of the grave, and pause by the head of Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws (Ali Al-Akbar-asws), and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of Prophet-saww of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of Amir Al-Momineen-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of Al-Husayn-asws, the martyr!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الشَّهِيدُ وَ ابْنُ الشَّهِيدِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الْمَظْلُومُ وَ ابْنُ الْمَظْلُومِ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً قَتَلَتْكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً ظَلَمَتْكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً سَمِعَتْ بِذَلِكَ فَرَضِيَتْ بِهِ
The greeting be upon you-asws O martyr and son-asws of the martyr! The greeting be upon you-asws O oppressed and son-asws of the oppressed! May Allah-azwj Curse the community which killed you-asws, and may Allah-azwj Curse the community which oppressed you-asws, and may Allah-azwj Curse the community which heard of that and was pleased with it!’
ثُمَّ انْكَبَّ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ قَبِّلْهُ وَ قُلْ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَلِيَّ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنَ وَلِيِّهِ لَقَدْ عَظُمَتِ الْمُصِيبَةُ وَ جَلَّتِ الرَّزِيَّةُ بِكَ عَلَيْنَا وَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَلَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً قَتَلَتْكَ وَ أَبْرَأُ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَ إِلَيْكَ مِنْهُمْ
Then devote upon the grave and kiss it and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O Guardian of Allah-azwj and son-asws of His-azwj Guardian! The difficulty has become magnified and the calamity of you-asws is immense upon us, and upon the entirety of the Muslims! May Allah-azwj Curse the community which killed you-asws, and I disavow, to Allah-azwj and by you-asws from them!’
ثُمَّ اخْرُجْ مِنَ الْبَابِ الَّذِي عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَلَيْهِمَا السَّلَامُ
Then come out from the door, which is by the feet of Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws, be upon them-asws both be the greeting!’
ثُمَّ تَوَجَّهْ إِلَى الشُّهَدَاءِ وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَوْلِيَاءَ اللَّهِ وَ أَحِبَّاءَهُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَصْفِيَاءَ اللَّهِ وَ أَوِدَّاءَهُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَنْصَارَ دِينِ اللَّهِ
Then head to the martyrs and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws all, O friends of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Loved ones! The greeting be upon you-asws O elites of Allah-azwj and His-azwj close ones! The greeting be upon you-asws O helpers of the religion of Allah-azwj!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَنْصَارَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَنْصَارَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَنْصَارَ فَاطِمَةَ سَيِّدَةِ نِسَاءِ الْعَالَمِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَنْصَارَ أَبِي مُحَمَّدٍ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الزَّكِيِّ النَّاصِحِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَنْصَارَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ
The greeting be upon you-asws O helpers of Rasool-Allah-saww! The greeting be upon you-asws O helpers of Amir Al-Momineen-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws O helpers of (Syeda) Fatima-asws chieftess of women of the worlds! The greeting be upon you-asws O helpers of Abu Muhammad Al-Hassan-asws Bin Ali-asws, the pure, the adviser! The greeting be upon you-asws O helpers of Abu Abdullah-asws!
بِأَبِي أَنْتُمْ وَ أُمِّي طِبْتُمْ وَ طَابَتِ الْأَرْضُ الَّتِي فِيهَا دُفِنْتُمْ وَ فُزْتُمْ فَوْزاً عَظِيماً فَيَا لَيْتَنِي كُنْتُ مَعَكُمْ فَأَفُوزَ مَعَكُمْ
May my father and my mother be (sacrificed) for you-asws, and good is the ground which you-asws are buried in, and you-asws succeeded with a mighty success! O, if only I had been with you-asws so I could have won along with you-asws!’
ثُمَّ عُدْ إِلَى عِنْدِ رَأْسِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع وَ أَكْثِرْ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ لَكَ وَ لِأَهْلِكَ وَ لِوَالِدَيْكَ وَ لِإِخْوَانِكَ فَإِنَّ مَشْهَدَهُ لَا تُرَدُّ فِيهِ دَعْوَةُ دَاعٍ وَ لَا سُؤَالُ سَائِلٍ
Then return to be by the head of Al-Husayn-asws, and frequent from the supplication, for yourself, and for your family, and for your parents, and for your brothers, for in his-asws Shrine no supplication of a supplicant is rejected, nor any request of a requester.
فَإِذَا أَرَدْتَ الْخُرُوجَ فَانْكَبَّ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا مَوْلَايَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حُجَّةَ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا صَفْوَةَ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا خَاصَّةَ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا خَالِصَةَ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَمِينَ اللَّهِ سَلَامَ مُوَدِّعٍ لَا قَالٍ وَ لَا سَئِمٍ
When you intend to go out, devote upon the grave and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws, O my master! The greeting be upon you-asws O Divine Authority of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O elite of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O special one of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O sincere one of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O trustee of Allah-azwj, a greeting of farewell, neither out of tiredness nor boredom!
فَإِنْ أَمْضِ فَلَا عَنْ مَلَالَةٍ وَ إِنْ أُقِمْ فَلَا عَنْ سُوءِ ظَنٍّ بِمَا وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الصَّابِرِينَ وَ لَا جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ يَا مَوْلَايَ آخِرَ الْعَهْدِ مِنِّي لِزِيَارَتِكَ وَ رَزَقَنِي الْعَوْدَ إِلَى مَشْهَدِكَ وَ الْمُقَامَ فِي حَرَمِكَ وَ إِيَّاهُ أَسْأَلُ أَنْ يُسْعِدَنِي بِكَ وَ بِالْأَئِمَّةِ مِنْ وُلْدِكَ وَ يَجْعَلَنِي مَعَكُمْ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ
If I depart, it will not be from being fed up, and if I stay, it will not be out of evil thoughts of what Allah-azwj has Promised the patient ones! O master! May Allah-azwj not Make it last of the pacts from me of visiting you-asws, and Grace me the return to your-asws Shrine and the staying in your-asws sanctuary, and I ask Him-azwj to Make me fortunate with you-asws and with the Imams-asws from your-asws sons-asws, and Make me to be with you-asws all in the world and the Hereafter!’
ثُمَّ قُمْ وَ اخْرُجْ وَ لَا تُوَلِّ ظَهْرَكَ وَ أَكْثِرْ مِنْ قَوْلِ إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَ إِنَّا إِلَيْهِ راجِعُونَ حَتَّى تَغِيبَ عَنِ الْقَبْرِ فَمَنْ زَارَ الْحُسَيْنَ ع بِهَذِهِ الزِّيَارَةِ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَهُ بِكُلِّ خُطْوَةٍ مِائَةَ أَلْفِ حَسَنَةٍ وَ مَحَا عَنْهُ مِائَةَ أَلْفِ سَيِّئَةٍ وَ رَفَعَ لَهُ مِائَةَ أَلْفِ دَرَجَةٍ وَ قَضَى لَهُ مِائَةَ أَلْفِ حَاجَةٍ
Then stand and exit and do not turn your back around, and be frequent from the words, ‘We are for Allah-azwj and are returning to Him-azwj’, until you disappear from the grave. The one who visits Al-Husayn-asws with this Ziyarat, Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic will Write for him one hundred thousand good needs with every step, and Delete one hundred thousand evil deeds, and Raise a hundred thousand ranks for him, and Fulfil a hundred thousand needs for him’.
أَسْهَلُهَا أَنْ يُزَحْزِحَهُ عَنِ النَّارِ وَ كَانَ كَمَنِ اسْتُشْهِدَ مَعَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع حَتَّى يَشْرَكَهُمْ فِي دَرَجَاتِهِمْ.
The easiest of them is that He-azwj Distances him from the Hellfire, and he is like one who was martyred with Hussain-asws until he participates with them in their ranks’’.[218]
ثُمَّ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ زِيَارَةُ الشُّهَدَاءِ مِنْ رِوَايَةِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ الثُّمَالِيِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا أَنْصَارَ دِينِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مِنِّي مَا بَقِيتُ وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ دَائِماً إِذَا فَنِيتُ وَ بُلِيتُ
Then the Sheykh said, ‘Ziyarat of the martyrs, from a report of Abu Hamza Al-Sumali is, ‘The greeting be upon you all, O helpers of the religion of Rasool-Allah-saww from me, for as long as I remain; and the greeting be upon you all constantly when I perish and decay!
لَهْفِي عَلَيْكُمْ أَيُّ مُصِيبَةٍ أَصَابَتْ كُلَّ مَوْلًى لِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ لَقَدْ عَظُمَتْ وَ خُصَّتْ وَ جَلَّتْ وَ عَمَّتْ مُصِيبَتُكُمْ إِنِّي بِكُمْ لَجَزِعٌ وَ إِنِّي بِكُمْ لَمُوجَعٌ مَحْزُونٌ وَ أَنَا بِكُمْ لَمُصَابٌ مَلْهُوفٌ
My sorrow upon you all, i.e. calamity, has afflicted every friend of Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww! Your-asws difficulty has become mighty, and specialised, and enlarged, and generalised. I am alarmed with you and I am in pain with you, grieving, and I am afflicted with you, sorrowful.
هَنِيئاً لَكُمْ مَا أُعْطِيتُمْ وَ هَنِيئاً لَكُمْ مَا بِهِ حُبِيتُمْ وَ لَقَدْ بَكَتْكُمُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَ حَفَّتْ بِكُمْ وَ سَكَنَتْ مُعَسْكَرَكُمْ وَ حَلَّتْ مَصَارِعَكُمْ وَ قَدَّسَتْ وَ صَفَّتْ بِأَجْنِحَتِهَا عَلَيْكُمْ لَيْسَ لَهَا عَنْكُمْ فِرَاقٌ إِلَى يَوْمِ التَّلَاقِ وَ يَوْمِ الْمَحْشَرِ وَ يَوْمِ الْمَنْشَرِ طَافَتْ عَلَيْكُمْ رَحْمَةٌ بَلَغْتُمْ بِهَا شَرَفَ الْآخِرَةِ أَتَيْتُكُمْ
Congratulations to you for what you have been Granted, and congratulations to you for what you have been Gifted, and you are being wept upon by the Angels and they are surrounding you, and resided in your camp, settled in your places of martyrdom, sanctified them, and spread their wings over you. They will never part from you until the Day of Reunion, the Day of Gathering, and the Day of Resurrection! Mercy surrounds you, by which you have reached the nobility of the Hereafter!
مُشْتَاقاً وَ زُرْتُكُمْ خَائِفاً أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يُرِيَنِيكُمْ عَلَى الْحَوْضِ وَ فِي الْجِنَانِ مَعَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ الشُّهَداءِ وَ الصَّالِحِينَ وَ حَسُنَ أُولئِكَ رَفِيقاً.
I am longing for you and have visited you fearfully. I ask Allah-azwj to Show you all to me at the fountain and in the Gardens with the Prophets and the Truthful and the Martyrs and the Righteous; and a goodly company are they! [4:69]!’’[219]
ثُمَّ قَالا ثُمَّ ارْجِعْ إِلَى مَشْهَدِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع لِلْوَدَاعِ فَإِذَا أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تُوَدِّعَهُ فَقِفْ عَلَيْهِ كَوُقُوفِكَ أَوَّلَ الزِّيَارَةِ وَ اسْتَقْبِلْهُ بِوَجْهِكَ وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَلِيَّ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنْتَ لِي جُنَّةٌ مِنَ الْعَذَابِ وَ هَذَا أَوَانُ انْصِرَافِي غَيْرَ رَاغِبٍ عَنْكَ وَ لَا مُسْتَبْدِلٍ بِكَ سِوَاكَ وَ لَا مُؤْثِرٍ عَلَيْكَ غَيْرَكَ وَ لَا زَاهِدٍ فِي قُرْبِكَ وَ قَدْ جُدْتُ بِنَفْسِي لِلْحِدْثَانِ وَ تَرَكْتُ الْأَهْلَ وَ الْأَوْطَانَ
Then they said, ‘Then return to the Shrine of Al-Husayn-asws for bidding the farewell. When you want to bid farewell, pause at it like your pausing at the first Ziyarat, and face him-asws with your face and said, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O Guardian of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws, O Abu Abdullah-asws! You-asws are a shield for me from the Punishment, and this is the time of my leaving without turning away from you-asws, and replacing you-asws for someone else, nor preferring someone else over you-asws, nor being abstemious regarding your-asws nearness, and I have found myself for the events and have left the family and the homelands!
فَكُنْ لِي شَافِعاً يَوْمَ حَاجَتِي وَ فَقْرِي وَ فَاقَتِي يَوْمَ لَا يُغْنِي عَنِّي وَالِدِي وَ لَا وَلَدِي وَ لَا حَمِيمِي وَ لَا قَرِيبِي أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الَّذِي قَدَّرَ وَ خَلَقَ أَنْ يُنَفِّسَ بِكُمْ كَرْبِي وَ أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الَّذِي قَدَّرَ عَلَيَّ فِرَاقَ مَكَانِكَ أَلَّا يَجْعَلَهُ آخِرَ الْعَهْدِ مِنِّي وَ مِنْ رُجُوعِي
So, be an intercessor for me on the Day of my need and my poverty and my destitution on a Day neither will my parents avail me, nor my children, nor my intimate one nor my relative! I ask Allah-azwj Who Determined and Created, to Relive my stress through you-asws, and I ask Allah-azwj Who Determined upon me separation from your-asws place not to Make it last of the pacts from me, and of my return!
وَ أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الَّذِي أَبْكَى عَيْنَيَّ عَلَيْكَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَهُ سَنَداً لِي وَ أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الَّذِي نَقَلَنِي إِلَيْكَ مِنْ رَحْلِي وَ أَهْلِي أَنْ يَجْعَلَهُ ذُخْراً لِي وَ أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ الَّذِي أَرَانِي مَكَانَكَ وَ هَدَانِي لِلتَّسْلِيمِ عَلَيْكَ وَ لِزِيَارَتِي إِيَّاكَ أَنْ يُورِدَنِي حَوْضَكَ وَ يَرْزُقَنِي مُرَافَقَتَكَ فِي الْجِنَانِ مَعَ آبَائِكَ الصَّالِحِينَ
And I ask Allah-azwj Who Made my eyes cry upon you-asws, to Make it a support for me, and I ask Allah-azwj Who Transferred me to you-asws from my belongings and my family, to Make it a treasure for me, and I ask Allah-azwj Who Showed me your-asws place and guided me to greet upon you-asws and for my visiting you-asws, to Make me arrive at your-asws fountain, and Grace me your-asws friendship in the Gardens along with your-asws righteous forefathers-asws!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا صَفْوَةَ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ حَبِيبِ اللَّهِ وَ صَفْوَتِهِ وَ أَمِينِهِ وَ رَسُولِهِ وَ سَيِّدِ النَّبِيِّينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ وَصِيِّ رَسُولِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ وَ قَائِدِ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِينَ
The greeting be upon you-asws O elite of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws and upon Muhammad-saww Bin Abdullah-asws! The greeting be upon Muhammad-saww Beloved of Allah-azwj, and His-azwj trustee, and His-azwj Rasool-saww, and chief of the Prophets-as! The greeting be upon Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and successor-asws of Rasool-saww of Lord-azwj of the worlds, and leader of the resplendent!
السَّلَامُ عَلَى الْأَئِمَّةِ الرَّاشِدِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَى مَنْ فِي الْحَائِرِ مِنْكُمْ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ السَّلَامُ عَلَى مَلَائِكَةِ اللَّهِ الْبَاقِينَ الْمُقِيمِينَ الْمُسَبِّحِينَ الَّذِينَ هُمْ بِأَمْرِ اللَّهِ مُقِيمُونَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْنَا وَ عَلَى عِبَادِ اللَّهِ الصَّالِحِينَ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ
The greeting be upon the rightly directing Imams-asws! The greeting be upon the ones from you being in the (Holy) enclosure, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings! The greeting be upon Angels of Allah-azwj, the remaining, the resident, the glorifiers, those who are resident by the Command of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon us and upon the righteous servants of Allah-azwj, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj Lord-azwj of the worlds!’
ثُمَّ أَشِرْ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ بِمُسَبِّحَتِكَ الْيُمْنَى وَ قُلْ سَلَامُ اللَّهِ وَ سَلَامُ مَلَائِكَتِهِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ وَ أَنْبِيَائِهِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ عِبَادِهِ الصَّالِحِينَ
Then indicate towards the grave with your rosary of the right hand, and say, ‘Greeting of Allah-azwj, greeting of His-azwj Angels of Proximity, and His-azwj Messenger Prophets-as, and His-azwj righteous servants!
يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى رُوحِكَ وَ بَدَنِكَ وَ عَلَى ذُرِّيَّتِكَ وَ مَنْ حَضَرَكَ مِنْ أَوْلِيَائِكَ أَسْتَوْدِعُكَ اللَّهَ وَ أَسْتَرْعِيكَ وَ أَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ آمِناً بِاللَّهِ وَ بِرَسُولِهِ وَ بِمَا جَاءَ بِهِ مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ اللَّهُمَّ اكْتُبْنَا مَعَ الشَّاهِدِينَ
O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-azwj! Upon you-asws, and upon your-asws soul and your-asws body, and upon your-asws offspring, and the ones from your-asws friends in your-asws presence, I entrust you-asws to Allah-azwj and in His-azwj Care, and convey the greeting to you-asws, believing in Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww, and with whatever he-saww had come with from the Presence of Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! Write us with the testifiers!’
ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ يَدَيْكَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ لَا تَجْعَلَهُ آخِرَ الْعَهْدِ مِنْ زِيَارَتِي إِيَّاهُ فَإِنْ جَعَلْتَهُ يَا رَبِّ فَاحْشُرْنِي مَعَهُ وَ مَعَ آبَائِهِ وَ أَوْلِيَائِهِ وَ إِنْ أَبْقَيْتَنِي يَا رَبِّ فَارْزُقْنِي الْعَوْدَ إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ الْعَوْدَ إِلَيْهِ بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
Then raise your hands towards the sky and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and not to Make it last of the paces of my visiting him-asws! If You-azwj do Make it so, O Lord-azwj, then Resurrect me with him-asws and with his-asws forefathers-asws and his-asws friends, and if You-azwj Cause me to remain, O Lord-azwj, then Grace me the returning to him-asws, then the returning to him-asws by Your-azwj Mercy, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!
اللَّهُمَ اجْعَلْ لِي لِسانَ صِدْقٍ فِي أَوْلِيَائِكَ
O Allah-azwj! Make for me a truthful tongue among your-asws friends!
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ لَا تَشْغَلْنِي عَنْ ذِكْرِكَ بِإِكْثَارٍ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا تُلْهِينِي عَجَائِبُ بَهْجَتِهَا وَ تَفْتِنُنِي زَهَرَاتُ زِينَتِهَا وَ لَا بِإِقْلَالٍ يُضِرُّ بِعَمَلِي كَدُّهُ وَ يَمْلَأُ صَدْرِي هَمُّهُ وَ أَعْطِنِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ غِنًى عَنْ شِرَارِ خَلْقِكَ وَ بَلَاغاً أَنَالُ بِهِ رِضَاكَ يَا رَحْمَانُ
O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and do not preoccupy me from Your-azwj Zikr due to abundance of worldly matters whose wonders distract me with their delight and whose adornments tempt me, nor with scarcity that harms my deeds through its burden and fills my heart with worry! Grant me from that a sufficiency that spares me from the evil of Your-azwj creation and Provide me with what enables me to attain Your-azwj Pleasure, O Beneficent!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا مَلَائِكَةَ اللَّهِ وَ زُوَّارَ قَبْرِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع
The greeting be upon you-asws O Angels of Allah-azwj and visitors to the grave of Abu Abdullah-asws!’
ثُمَّ ضَعْ خَدَّكَ الْأَيْمَنَ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ مَرَّةً وَ الْأَيْسَرَ مَرَّةً وَ أَلِحَّ فِي الدُّعَاءِ وَ الْمَسْأَلَةِ ثُمَّ حَوِّلْ وَجْهَكَ إِلَى قُبُورِ الشُّهَدَاءِ فَوَدِّعْهُمْ وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ اللَّهُمَّ لَا تَجْعَلْهُ آخِرَ الْعَهْدِ مِنْ زِيَارَتِي إِيَّاهُمْ وَ أَشْرِكْنِي مَعَهُمْ فِي صَالِحِ مَا أَعْطَيْتَهُمْ عَلَى نُصْرَتِهِمْ ابْنَ نَبِيِّكَ وَ حُجَّتَكَ عَلَى خَلْقِكَ وَ جِهَادِهِمْ مَعَهُ
Then place your right cheeks upon the grave once, and the left once, and be insistent in the supplication and the requesting. Then turn your face toward the graves of the martyrs. Bid them farewell and say, ‘The greeting be upon you all and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings! O Allah-azwj! Do not Make is the last pace of my visiting them, and Participate me with them in the righteousness of what You-azwj Grant them upon their having helped a son-asws of Your-azwj Prophet-saww, and Your-azwj Divine Authority upon Your-azwj creatures, and their having fought alongside him-asws!
اللَّهُمَّ اجْمَعْنَا وَ إِيَّاهُمْ فِي جَنَّتِكَ مَعَ الشُّهَداءِ وَ الصَّالِحِينَ وَ حَسُنَ أُولئِكَ رَفِيقاً أَسْتَوْدِعُكُمُ اللَّهَ وَ أَقْرَأُ عَلَيْكُمُ
O Allah-azwj! Gather us and them in Your-azwj Paradise along with the Prophets and the Truthful and the Martyrs and the Righteous; and a goodly company are they! [4:69], and Convey the greeting upon them!
السَّلَامَ اللَّهُمَّ ارْزُقْنِي الْعَوْدَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَ احْشُرْنِي مَعَهُمْ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
O Allah-azwj! Grace me the returning to them and Resurrect me with them, O the most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
ثُمَّ اخْرُجْ وَ لَا تُوَلِّ وَجْهَكَ عَنِ الْقَبْرِ حَتَّى يَغِيبَ عَنْ مُعَايَنَتِكَ وَ قِفْ عَلَى الْبَابِ مُتَوَجِّهاً إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تَتَقَبَّلَ عَمَلِي وَ تَشْكُرَ سَعْيِي وَ لَا تَجْعَلَهُ آخِرَ الْعَهْدِ مِنِّي أَبَداً مَا أَبْقَيْتَنِي
Then go out and do not turn your face around from the grave until it disappears from your witnessing, and pause at the door facing towards the Qiblah and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by the right of Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and, and to Accept my deeds and Appreciate my striving and do not Make it last of the pacts from me, ever, for as long as You-azwj Cause me to live!
وَ ارْدُدْنِي إِلَيْهِ بِبِرٍّ وَ تَقْوَى وَ عَرِّفْنِي بِهِ وَ زِيَارَتِي إِلَيْهِ وَ قُرْبَتِي وَ عَرِّفْنِي بَرَكَتَهُ عَاجِلًا صَبّاً صَبّاً مِنْ غَيْرِ كَدٍّ وَ لَا مَنٍّ مِنْ أَحَدٍ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ وَ اجْعَلْهُ وَاسِعاً مِنْ فَضْلِكَ وَ كَثِيراً مِنْ عَطِيَّتِكَ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْوَاسِعِ الْفَاضِلِ الْمُفْضِلِ الطَّيِّبِ وَ ارْزُقْنِي رِزْقاً وَاسِعاً حَلَالًا كَثِيراً فَإِنَّكَ تَقُولُ وَ سْئَلُوا اللَّهَ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ
And return me to him-asws with righteousness and piety, and make me recognise him, and my visitation to him-asws, and my nearness to him-asws! Make me know his-asws blessings swiftly and abundantly, without hardship and without favour from any of Your-azwj creatures! Make it vast from Your-azwj Grace and plentiful from Your-azwj gift, from Your-azwj vast, virtuous, generous, and pure bounties. Provide me with abundant, lawful, and plentiful sustenance, for indeed You Said: and ask Allah from His Grace. [4:32]!
فَمِنْ فَضْلِكَ أَسْأَلُ وَ مِنْ عَطِيَّتِكَ أَسْأَلُ وَ مِنْ كَثِيرِ مَا عِنْدَكَ أَسْأَلُ وَ مِنْ خَزَائِنِكَ أَسْأَلُ وَ مِنْ يَدِكَ الْمَلْأَى أَسْأَلُ فَلَا تَرُدَّنِي خَائِباً فَإِنِّي ضَعِيفٌ فَضَاعِفْ لِي وَ عَافِنِي إِلَى مُنْتَهَى أَجَلِي وَ اجْعَلْ لِي مِنْ كُلِّ نِعْمَةٍ أَنْعَمْتَهَا عَلَى عِبَادِكَ أَوْفَرَ النَّصِيبِ وَ اجْعَلْ لِي خَيْراً مِمَّا أَنَا عَلَيْهِ وَ اجْعَلْ مَا أَصِيرُ إِلَيْهِ خَيْراً مِمَّا يَنْقَطِعُ عَنِّي وَ اجْعَلْ سَرِيرَتِي خَيْراً مِنْ عَلَانِيَتِي
From Your-azwj Grace I ask, and from Your-azwj Grants I ask, and from abundance of what is with You-azwj I ask, and from Your-azwj Rewards I ask, and from Your-azwj Full Hands I ask! Do not Return me disappointed for I am weak, so Multiply for me and Grant me well-being to the end of my term, and Make for me from every bounty You-azwj have Conferred upon Your-azwj servants, the most plentiful share, and Make for me goodness from what I am upon, and Make what I come to as better than what is cut off from me, and Make my secrets better than my announcements!
وَ أَعِذْنِي مِنْ أَنْ أُرِيَ النَّاسَ أَنَّ فِيَّ خَيْراً وَ لَا خَيْرَ فِيَّ وَ ارْزُقْنِي مِنَ التِّجَارَةِ أَوْسَعَهَا رِزْقاً وَ أَعْظَمَهَا فَضْلًا وَ خَيْرَهَا لِي وَ لِعِيَالِي وَ أَهْلِ عِنَايَتِي فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ عَافِيَةً
And Refuge me from showing-off to the people that there is goodness in me, while there is no goodness in me. Provide me with the widest and most abundant sustenance through trade, and the greatest in Blessing and the best for me, my family, and those under my care in this world and the Hereafter, with well-being!
وَ أْتِنِي يَا سَيِّدِي وَ عِيَالِي بِرِزْقٍ وَاسِعٍ تُغْنِينَا بِهِ عَنْ دُنَاةِ خَلْقِكَ وَ لَا تَجْعَلْ لِأَحَدٍ مِنَ الْعِبَادِ فِيهِ مَنّاً وَ اجْعَلْنِي مِمَّنِ اسْتَجَابَ لَكَ وَ آمَنَ بِوَعْدِكَ وَ اتَّبَعَ أَمْرَكَ
Grant me, O my Master, and my family a vast provision by which You-azwj Make us independent of the lowly among Your-azwj creation, and let no one among the servants have a favour over us in it. Make me among those who respond to You-azwj, believe in Your-azwj Promise, and follow Your-azwj command!
وَ لَا تَجْعَلْنِي أَخْيَبَ وَفْدِكَ وَ زُوَّارِ ابْنِ نَبِيِّكَ وَ أَعِذْنِي مِنَ الْفَقْرِ وَ مَوَاقِفِ الْخِزْيِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ وَ اصْرِفْ عَنِّي شَرَّ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ
Do not Make me the most disappointed of those who come to You-azwj or visit the son-asws of Your-azwj Prophet-saww. Protect me from poverty and from disgraceful situations in this world and the Hereafter, and Turn away from me the evil of this world and the Hereafter!
وَ اقْلِبْنِي مُفْلِحاً مُنْجِحاً مُسْتَجَاباً لِي بِأَفْضَلِ مَا يَنْقَلِبُ بِهِ أَحَدٌ مِنْ زُوَّارِ أَوْلِيَائِكَ وَ لَا تَجْعَلْهُ آخِرَ الْعَهْدِ مِنْ زِيَارَتِهِمْ وَ إِنْ لَمْ تَكُنِ اسْتَجَبْتَ لِي وَ غَفَرْتَ لِي وَ رَضِيتَ عَنِّي فَمِنَ الْآنَ فَاسْتَجِبْ لِي وَ اغْفِرْ لِي وَ ارْضَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَنْأَى عَنِ ابْنِ نَبِيِّكَ دَارِي
And return me successful, prosperous, and answered in my supplication with the best return that any of the visitors of Your-azwj friends may return with. Do not Make this the last time I visit them-asws, and if You-azwj have not Answered me, Forgiven me, and be Pleased with me, then from this moment, Answer me, Forgive me, and be Pleased with me by the dwelling of the son-asws of Your Prophet-saww as my home is far from him-asws!
فَهَذَا أَوَانُ انْصِرَافِي إِنْ كُنْتَ أَذِنْتَ لِي غَيْرَ رَاغِبٍ عَنْكَ وَ لَا عَنْ أَوْلِيَائِكَ وَ لَا مُسْتَبْدِلٍ بِكَ وَ لَا بِهِمْ
This is the time of my leaving, if You-azwj have Permitted it for me, not out of turning away from You-azwj or from Your-azwj friends, nor in exchange for You-azwj nor for them-asws!
اللَّهُمَّ احْفَظْنِي مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيَّ وَ مِنْ خَلْفِي وَ عَنْ يَمِينِي وَ عَنْ شِمَالِي حَتَّى تُبَلِّغَنِي أَهْلِي فَإِذَا بَلَّغْتَنِي فَلَا تَبَرَّأْ مِنِّي وَ أَلْبِسْنِي وَ إِيَّاهُمْ دِرْعَكَ الْحَصِينَةَ وَ اكْفِنِي مَئُونَةَ عِيَالِي وَ مَئُونَةَ جَمِيعِ خَلْقِكَ وَ امْنَعْنِي مِنْ أَنْ يَصِلَ إِلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ بِسُوءٍ فَإِنَّكَ وَلِيِّي فِي كُلِّ ذَلِكَ وَ الْقَادِرُ عَلَيْهِ وَ أَعْطِنِي جَمِيعَ مَا سَأَلْتُكَ وَ مُنَّ عَلَيَّ بِهِ وَ زِدْنِي مِنْ فَضْلِكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
O Allah-azwj! Protect me from in front of me, from behind me, on my right, and on my left until You-azwj Return me to my family, and when You-azwj have Returned me, do not disown me. Clothe me and them in Your-azwj Protective armour. Spare me the burden of providing for my family and the burden of all Your-azwj creation. Prevent anyone from reaching any of Your-azwj creation through me with harm, for You-azwj are my Guardian in all of this and are capable over it. Grant me all that I have asked You-azwj, Bestow it upon me, and increase me from Your-azwj bounty, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’

Curse those who belied Your-azwj Rasools-as, and demolished Your-azwj Kabah, and violated Your-azwj Sanctuary, and committed sacrilege in the Sacred House, and altered Your-azwj Book, and shed Your-azwj blood of People-asws of the Household Your-azwj Prophet-saww, and revealed the corruption in Your-azwj earth, and humiliated Your-azwj believing servants!
اللَّهُمَّ ضَاعِفْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْعَذَابَ الْأَلِيمَ وَ اجْعَلْ لِي لِسانَ صِدْقٍ فِي أَوْلِيَائِكَ الْمُصْطَفَيْنَ وَ حَبِّبْ إِلَيَّ مَشَاهِدَهُمْ وَ أَلْحِقْنِي بِهِمْ وَ اجْعَلْنِي مَعَهُمْ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
O Allah-azwj! Double the painful Punishment upon them and Make a truthful tongue for me among Your-azwj Guardians, the Chosen, and Cause their Shrines to be beloved to me, and Join me with them-asws and Make me to be with them-asws in the world and the Hereafter, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
ثُمَّ ضَعْ يَدَكَ الْيُسْرَى عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ أَشِرْ بِيَدِكَ الْيُمْنَى وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ أَدْرَكْتُ نُصْرَتَكَ بِيَدِي فَهَا أَنَا ذَا وَافِدٌ إِلَيْكَ بِنَصْرِي قَدْ أَجَابَكَ سَمْعِي وَ بَصَرِي وَ بَدَنِي وَ رَأْيِي وَ هَوَايَ عَلَى التَّسْلِيمِ لَكَ وَ لِلْخَلَفِ الْبَاقِي مِنْ بَعْدِكَ وَ الْأَدِلَّاءِ عَلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ وُلْدِكَ فَنُصْرَتِي لَكُمْ مُعَدَّةٌ حَتَّى يَحْكُمَ اللَّهُ وَ هُوَ خَيْرُ الْحاكِمِينَ
Then place your left hand upon the grave and indicate with your right hand and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! If I cannot realise helping you-asws with my hands, so here I am a delegate to you-asws with my help, having answered you-asws with my hearing, and my sight, and my hands, and my view, and my whims upon the greeting to You-azwj, and to the remaining replacement, the remaining from after You-azwj, and the guides to Allah-azwj from your-asws sons-asws. My help for you-asws is prepared until Allah-azwj Decide and He-azwj is best of the deciders!’
ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ يَدَيْكَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ هَذَا الْقَبْرَ قَبْرُ حَبِيبِكَ وَ صَفْوَتِكَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ الْفَائِزِ بِكَرَامَتِكَ أَكْرَمْتَهُ بِالشَّهَادَةِ وَ أَعْطَيْتَهُ مَوَارِيثَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ جَعَلْتَهُ حُجَّةً لَكَ عَلَى خَلْقِكَ
Then raise your hands towards the sky and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I testify that this grave is the grave of Your-azwj Beloved and Your-azwj elite from Your-azwj creatures, the winner with Your-azwj Honours! You-azwj Honoured him-asws with the martyrdom and Granted him-asws inheritances of the Prophets-as, and Made him-asws a Divine Authority for You-azwj upon Your-azwj creatures!
فَأَعْذَرَ فِي الدَّعْوَةِ وَ بَذَلَ مُهْجَتَهُ فِيكَ لِيَسْتَنْقِذَ عِبَادَكَ مِنَ الضَّلَالَةِ وَ الْجَهَالَةِ وَ الْعَمَى وَ الشَّكِّ وَ الِارْتِيَابِ إِلَى بَابِ الْهُدَى وَ الرَّشَادِ
So, he-asws fulfilled his-asws duty in delivering the message and gave his-asws life for Your-azwj Sake, to rescue Your-azwj servants from misguidance, ignorance, blindness, doubt, and confusion, and to guide them to the path of guidance and righteousness!
وَ أَنْتَ يَا سَيِّدِي بِالْمَنْظَرِ الْأَعْلَى تَرَى وَ لَا تُرَى وَ قَدْ تَوَازَرَ عَلَيْهِ فِي طَاعَتِكَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ مَنْ غَرَّتْهُ الدُّنْيَا وَ بَاعَ آخِرَتَهُ بِالثَّمَنِ الْأَوْكَسِ وَ أَسْخَطَكَ وَ أَسْخَطَ رَسُولَكَ ع وَ أَطَاعَ مِنْ عِبَادِكَ أَهْلَ الشِّقَاقِ وَ النِّفَاقِ وَ حَمَلَةَ الْأَوْزَارِ الْمُسْتَوْجِبِينَ النَّارَ
And You-azwj my Master as with the exalted scenarios! You-azwj See and cannot be seen, and those of Your-azwj creation who were deceived by the world and sold their Hereafter for the lowest price and united against him in obedience to You-azwj! They angered You-azwj and angered Your-azwj Rasool-saww, and obeyed among Your-azwj servants the people of discord and hypocrisy, the bearers of burdens, those deserving of the Hellfire!
اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنْهُمْ لَعْناً وَبِيلًا وَ عَذِّبْهُمْ عَذَاباً أَلِيماً
O Allah-azwj! Curse them with a severe Curse and Punish them with a painful Punishment!’
Then place your left hand and indicate with the right towards the grave and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of the Prophets-saww! The greeting be upon you-asws O successor-asws of the successors-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws and upon your-asws progeny and your-asws offspring, those Allah-azwj has Gifted with the conclusive arguments, and the Noor, and the straight path!
بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي مَا أَجَلَّ مُصِيبَتَكَ وَ أَعْظَمَهَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ وَ مَا أَجَلَّ مُصِيبَتَكَ وَ أَعْظَمَهَا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ مَا أَجَلَّ مُصِيبَتَكَ وَ أَعْظَمَهَا عِنْدَ الْمَلَإِ الْأَعْلَى وَ مَا أَجَلَّ مُصِيبَتَكَ وَ أَعْظَمَهَا عِنْدَ شِيعَتِكَ خَاصَّةً

فَاشْفَعْ لِي عِنْدَهُ وَ كُنْ لِي شَفِيعاً فَقَدْ جِئْتُكَ هَارِباً مِنْ ذُنُوبِي مُتَنَصِّلًا إِلَى رَبِّي مِنْ سَيِّئِ عَمَلِي رَاجِياً فِي مَوْقِفِي هَذَا الْخَلَاصَ مِنْ عُقُوبَةِ رَبِّي طَامِعاً أَنْ يَسْتَنْقِذَنِي رَبِّي بِكَ مِنَ الرَّدَى
Intercede for me in His-azwj Presence, and be an intercessor for me, for I have come to you-asws fleeing from my sins, disavowing to my Lord-azwj from my evilness of my deeds, hoping in this pausing of mine to be rescued from Punishment of my Lord-azwj, eager for my Lord-azwj to Save me from the regress!
أَتَيْتُكَ يَا مَوْلَايَ وَافِداً إِلَيْكَ إِذْ رَغِبَ عَنْ زِيَارَتِكَ أَهْلُ الدُّنْيَا وَ إِلَيْكَ كَانَتْ رِحْلَتِي وَ لَكَ عَبْرَتِي وَ صَرْخَتِي وَ عَلَيْكَ أَسَفِي وَ لَكَ نَحِيبِي وَ زَفْرَتِي وَ عَلَيْكَ تَحِيَّتِي وَ سَلَامِي
I have come to you-asws, O my master, as a delegate to you-asws when people of the world have turned away from visiting you-asws, and my departure has been to you-asws, and for you-asws are my tears and my crying, and upon you-asws is my sorrow, and for you-asws is my lamentation and my sighing, and upon you-asws is my salutation and my greeting!
أَلْقَيْتُ رَحْلِي بِفِنَائِكَ مُسْتَجِيراً بِكَ وَ بِقَبْرِكَ مِمَّا أَخَافُ مِنْ عَظِيمِ جُرْمِي وَ أَتَيْتُكَ زَائِراً أَلْتَمِسُ ثَبَاتَ الْقَدَمِ فِي الْهِجْرَةِ إِلَيْكَ وَ قَدْ تَيَقَّنْتُ أَنَّ اللَّهَ جَلَّ ثَنَاؤُهُ بِكُمْ يُنَفِّسُ الْهَمَّ وَ بِكُمْ يَكْشِفُ الْكَرْبَ وَ بِكُمْ يُبَاعِدُ نَائِبَاتِ الزَّمَانِ الْكَلِبِ
I have laid down my burden at your-asws courtyard, seeking refuge with you-asws and with your-asws grave from the great fear caused by my immense sin.

وَ قَدْ تَوَجَّهْتُ إِلَى رَبِّي بِكَ يَا سَيِّدِي فِي قَضَاءِ حَوَائِجِي وَ مَغْفِرَةِ ذُنُوبِي فَلَا أَخِيبَنَّ مِنْ بَيْنِ زُوَّارِكَ فَقَدْ خَشِيتُ ذَلِكَ إِنْ لَمْ تَشْفَعْ لِي وَ لَا يَنْصَرِفُونَ زُوَّارُكَ يَا مَوْلَايَ بِالْعَطَاءِ وَ الْحِبَاءِ وَ الْخَيْرِ وَ الْجَزَاءِ وَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ وَ الرِّضَا وَ أَنْصَرِفُ أَنَا مَجْبُوهاً بِذُنُوبِي مَرْدُوداً عَلَيَّ عَمَلِي
And I have diverted to my Lord-azwj through you-asws, O my Chief, regarding fulfilment of my needs and Forgiveness of my sins, so do disappoint me in the midst of your-asws visitors, for I fear that! If you-asws do not intercede for me and O my master, your-asws visitors will not leave with the Grants and the Gifts, and the Goodness, and the Recompense, and the Forgiveness, and the Pleasure, while I will be disappointed due to my sins, my deeds being rejected upon me!
قَدْ خُيِّبْتُ لِمَا سَلَفَ مِنِّي فَإِنْ كَانَتْ هَذِهِ حَالِي فَالْوَيْلُ لِي مَا أَشْقَانِي وَ أَخْيَبَ سَعْيِي وَ فِي حُسْنِ ظَنِّي بِرَبِّي وَ بِنَبِيِّي وَ بِكَ يَا مَوْلَايَ وَ بِالْأَئِمَّةِ مِنْ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ سَادَاتِي أَنْ لَا أَخِيبَ
I have come for what has passed from me. If this were my state, then woe be to me! How wretched of me, and how disappointing is my striving, and in my goodly thoughts with my Lord-azwj and with my Prophet-saww, and with you-asws O my master, and with the Imams-asws from your-asws offspring, my chiefs, that I will not be disappointed!
فَاشْفَعْ لِي إِلَى رَبِّي لِيُعْطِيَنِي أَفْضَلَ مَا أَعْطَى أَحَداً مِنْ زُوَّارِكَ وَ الْوَافِدِينَ إِلَيْكَ وَ يَحْبُوَنِي وَ يُكْرِمَنِي وَ يُتْحِفَنِي بِأَفْضَلِ مَا مَنَّ بِهِ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْ زُوَّارِكَ وَ الْوَافِدِينَ إِلَيْكَ
Intercede for me to my Lord-azwj for Him-azwj to Grant me the best of what He-azwj has Granted to anyone of your-asws visitors and the delegates to you-asws, and to Award me and Honour me and Gift to me the best of what He-azwj Confers upon anyone of your-asws visitors and the delegates to you-asws!’
ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ يَدَيْكَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ قَدْ تَرَى مَكَانِي وَ تَسْمَعُ كَلَامِي وَ تَرَى مَكَانِي وَ تَضَرُّعِي وَ مَلَاذِي بِقَبْرِ وَلِيِّكَ وَ حُجَّتِكَ وَ ابْنِ نَبِيِّكَ وَ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ يَا سَيِّدِي حَوَائِجِي وَ لَا يَخْفَى عَلَيْكَ حَالِي وَ قَدْ تَوَجَّهْتُ إِلَيْكَ بِابْنِ رَسُولِكَ وَ حُجَّتِكَ وَ أَمِينِكَ

And I have come to You-azwj drawing closer through him-asws to You-azwj and to Your-azwj Rasool-saww, so Make me through him-asws, a face in Your-azwj Presence in the world and the Hereafter, and from the ones of Proximity, and Grant me my wishes due to my Ziyarat and Gift to me my aspirations, and Grace upon me due to my desires and my eagerness, and Fulfil me needs for me, and do not Return me disappointed, and do not Cut off my hopes, and do not Disappoint my supplication, and Introduce me to the Answer in entirety of what I am supplicating to You-azwj, from matters of the religion and the world and the Hereafter!
وَ اجْعَلْنِي مِنْ عِبَادِكَ الَّذِينَ صَرَفْتَ عَنْهُمُ الْبَلَايَا وَ الْأَمْرَاضَ وَ الْفِتَنَ وَ الْأَعْرَاضَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ تُحْيِيهِمْ فِي عَافِيَةٍ وَ تُمِيتُهُمْ فِي عَافِيَةٍ وَ تُدْخِلُهُمُ الْجَنَّةَ فِي عَافِيَةٍ وَ تُجِيرُهُمْ مِنَ النَّارِ فِي عَافِيَةٍ وَ وَفِّقْ لِي بِمَنٍّ مِنْكَ صَلَاحَ مَا أُؤَمِّلُ فِي نَفْسِي وَ أَهْلِي وَ وُلْدِي وَ إِخْوَانِي وَ مَالِي وَ جَمِيعِ مَا أَنْعَمْتَ بِهِ عَلَيَّ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
And Make me from Your-azwj servants, those You-azwj have Turned away from them the afflictions, and the sicknesses, and the Fitna, and the symptoms, from those You-azwj have Caused to live in well-being, and Caused them to die in well-being, and Entered them into the Paradise in well-being, and Rescued them from the Hellfire in well-being, and Harmonise the righteousness for me with Conferment from You-azwj what I am wishing for regarding myself, and my family, and my children, and my brothers, and my wealth, and entirety of what You-azwj have Bestowed upon me, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
ثُمَّ انْكَبَّ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حُجَّةَ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنَ حُجَّتِهِ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ حُجَّةُ اللَّهِ وَ أَمِينُهُ وَ خَلِيفَتُهُ فِي عِبَادِهِ وَ خَازِنُ عِلْمِهِ وَ مُسْتَوْدَعُ سِرِّهِ
Then devote upon the grave and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O Divine Authority of Allah-azwj and son-asws of His-azwj Divine Authority! I testify you-asws are a Divine Authority of Allah-azwj, and His-azwj trustee, and His-azwj caliph among His-azwj servant, and treasurer of His-azwj Knowledge, and depository of His-azwj Secrets!
بَلَّغْتَ عَنِ اللَّهِ مَا أُمِرْتَ بِهِ وَ وَفَيْتَ وَ أَوْفَيْتَ وَ مَضَيْتَ عَلَى يَقِينٍ شَهِيداً وَ شَاهِداً وَ مَشْهُوداً صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ وَ رَحْمَتُهُ عَلَيْكَ
You-asws delivered on behalf of Allah-azwj what you-asws had been Commanded with, and you-asws were loyal and fulfilled and passed upon certainty as a martyr, and a witness, and witnessed! May the Salawaat of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Mercy be upon you-asws!
أَنَا يَا مَوْلَايَ وَلِيُّكَ اللَّائِذُ بِكَ فِي طَاعَتِكَ أَلْتَمِسُ ثَبَاتَ الْقَدَمِ فِي الْهِجْرَةِ عِنْدَكَ وَ كَمَالَ الْمَنْزِلَةِ فِي الْآخِرَةِ بِكَ
O my master! I am your-asws friend, seeking refuge with you-asws, being in your-asws obedience, seeking affirmation of the feet in the emigrating to be with you-asws, and perfection of the status in the Hereafter through you-asws!
أَتَيْتُكَ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي وَ نَفْسِي وَ مَالِي وَ وُلْدِي زَائِراً وَ بِحَقِّكَ عَارِفاً مُتَّبِعاً لِلْهُدَى الَّذِي أَنْتَ عَلَيْهِ مُوجِباً لِطَاعَتِكَ مُسْتَيْقِناً فَضْلَكَ مُسْتَبْصِراً بِضَلَالَةِ مَنْ خَالَفَكَ عَالِماً بِهِ مُتَمَسِّكاً بِوَلَايَتِكَ وَ وَلَايَةِ آبَائِكَ وَ ذُرِّيَّتِكَ الطَّاهِرِينَ
May my father and my mother, and myself, and my wealth, and my children be (sacrificed for) you-asws! I have come to you-asws as a visitor and a recogniser of your-asws rights, following the guidance which you-asws are upon, answering to your-asws obedience, certain of your-asws merits, insightful of the straying of the ones opposing you-asws, being a knower of it, adhering with your-asws Wilayah and Wilayah of your-asws forefathers-asws and your-asws offspring, the pure!
أَلَا لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً قَتَلَتْكُمْ وَ خَالَفَتْكُمْ وَ شَهِدَتْكُمْ فَلَمْ تُجَاهِدْ مَعَكُمْ وَ غَصَبَتْكُمْ حَقَّكُمْ
Indeed! May Allah-azwj Curse the community which killed you-asws, and opposed you-asws, and martyred you-asws, and (those who) did not fight with you-asws but usurped your-asws rights!
أَتَيْتُكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مَكْرُوباً وَ أَتَيْتُكَ مَغْمُوماً وَ أَتَيْتُكَ مُفْتَقِراً إِلَى شَفَاعَتِكَ وَ لِكُلِّ زَائِرٍ حَقٌّ عَلَى مَنْ أَتَاهُ وَ أَنَا زَائِرُكَ وَ مَوْلَاكَ وَ ضَيْفُكَ النَّازِلُ بِكَ وَ الْحَالُّ بِفِنَائِكَ وَ لِي حَوَائِجُ مِنْ حَوَائِجِ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ
I have come to you-asws, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww, as distressed, and I have come to you-asws saddened, and I have come to you-asws needy to your-asws intercession, and for every visitor there is a right upon the one he comes to, and I am your-asws visitor, and your-asws slave, and your-asws weak, descending with you-asws and staying by your-asws courtyard, and for me there are needs from needs of the world and the Hereafter!
بِكَ أَتَوَجَّهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ فِي نُجْحِهَا وَ قَضَائِهَا فَاشْفَعْ لِي عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ وَ رَبِّي فِي قَضَاءِ حَوَائِجِي كُلِّهَا وَ قَضَاءِ حَاجَتِي الْعُظْمَى الَّتِي إِنْ أَعْطَانِيهَا لَمْ يَضُرَّنِي مَا مَنَعَنِي وَ إِنْ مَنَعَنِيهَا لَمْ يَنْفَعْنِي مَا أَعْطَانِي فَكَاكِ رَقَبَتِي مِنَ النَّارِ وَ الدَّرَجَاتِ الْعُلَى
Through you-asws I divert to Allah-azwj regarding their success and their fulfilment, so intercede for me in the Presence of your-asws Lord-azwj and my Lord-azwj regarding fulfilment of my needs, all of them, and fulfilment of my mighty needs which if You-azwj were to Grant me, it will not harm me what is prevented from me, and if You-azwj were to Prevent these, it will not benefit me what You-azwj Grant me!
وَ الْمِنَّةِ عَلَيَّ بِجَمِيعِ سُؤْلِي وَ رَغْبَتِي وَ شَهَوَاتِي وَ إِرَادَتِي وَ مُنَايَ وَ صَرْفِ جَمِيعِ الْمَكْرُوهِ وَ الْمَحْذُورِ عَنِّي وَ عَنْ أَهْلِي وَ وُلْدِي وَ إِخْوَانِي وَ مَالِي وَ جَمِيعِ مَا أَنْعَمَ عَلَيَّ وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
(These are) liberation of my neck from the Hellfire and the exalted ranks, and the Conferment upon me with entirety of my requests and my desires, and my wants, and my wishes, and Turn away from me entirety of the abhorrence(s), and the hazards, and from my family, and my children, and my brothers, and my wealth, and entirety of what You-azwj Bestowed upon me, and the greeting be upon you-asws, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!’
ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ وَ قُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَنِي مِنْ زُوَّارِ ابْنِ نَبِيِّهِ وَ رَزَقَنِي مَعْرِفَةَ فَضْلِهِ وَ الْإِقْرَارَ بِحَقِّهِ وَ الشَّهَادَةَ بِطَاعَتِهِ رَبَّنا آمَنَّا بِما أَنْزَلْتَ وَ اتَّبَعْنَا الرَّسُولَ فَاكْتُبْنا مَعَ الشَّاهِدِينَ
Then raise your head and say, ‘The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who Made me from visitors of the son-asws of His-azwj Prophet-saww, and Graced me recognition of his-asws merits, and the acceptance of his-asws rights, and the martyrdom in his-asws obedience! Our Lord! We believe in what You have Revealed and we follow the Rasool, so Write us down with the testifiers’ [3:53]!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ قَاتِلِيكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ خَاذِلِيكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ سَالِبِيكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ رَمَاكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ طَعَنَكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ الْمُعِينِينَ عَلَيْكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ السَّائِرِينَ إِلَيْكَ
The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! May Allah-azwj Curse the ones who killed you-asws, and my Allah-azwj Curse the ones who abandoned you-asws, and may Allah-azwj Curse the ones who plundered you-asws, and may Allah-azwj Curse the ones who shot (arrows) at you-asws, and may Allah-azwj Curse the ones who stabbed you-asws, and my Allah-azwj Curse the ones who assisted against you-asws, and may Allah-azwj Curse the one who travelled to (battle) you-asws!
وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ مَنَعَكَ شُرْبَ مَاءِ الْفُرَاتِ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ دَعَاكَ وَ غَشَّكَ وَ خَذَلَكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ ابْنَ آكِلَةِ الْأَكْبَادِ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ ابْنَهُ الَّذِي وَتَرَكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أَعْوَانَهُمْ وَ أَتْبَاعَهُمْ وَ أَنْصَارَهُمْ وَ مُحِبِّيهِمْ وَ مَنْ أَسَّسَ لَهُمْ وَ حَشَا اللَّهُ قُبُورَهُمْ نَاراً
And may Allah-azwj Curse the one who prevented you-asws from drinking water of the Euphrates, and may Allah-azwj Curse the ones who invited you-asws and deceived you-asws and abandoned you-asws, and may Allah-azwj Curse the liver eater, and may Allah-azwj Curse his son who singled you-asws out, and may Allah-azwj Curse their supporters, and their followers, and their helpers, and ones loving them, and ones who laid the foundation for them, and may Allah-azwj Fill their grave with fire!
وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَ أُمِّي وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
And the greeting be upon you-asws! May my father and my mother be (sacrificed for) you-asws, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!’
ثُمَّ انْحَرِفْ عَنِ الْقَبْرِ وَ حَوِّلْ وَجْهَكَ إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ وَ ارْفَعْ يَدَيْكَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ تَهَيَّأَ وَ تَعَبَّأَ وَ أَعَدَّ وَ اسْتَعَدَّ لِوِفَادَةٍ إِلَى مَخْلُوقٍ رَجَاءَ رِفْدِهِ وَ جَائِزَتِهِ وَ نَوَافِلِهِ وَ فَوَاضِلِهِ وَ عَطَايَاهُ فَإِلَيْكَ يَا رَبِّ كَانَتْ تَهْيِئَتِي وَ تَعْبِئَتِي وَ إِعْدَادِي وَ اسْتِعْدَادِي وَ سَفَرِي وَ إِلَى قَبْرِ وَلِيِّكَ وَفَدْتُ وَ بِزِيَارَتِهِ إِلَيْكَ تَقَرَّبْتُ رَجَاءَ رِفْدِكَ وَ جَوَائِزِكَ وَ نَوَافِلِكَ وَ عَطَايَاكَ وَ فَوَاضِلِكَ
Then turn away from the grave and turn your face towards the Qiblah and raise your hands towards the sky and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Whoever prepares, equips, arranges, and gets ready for a visit to a created being in hope of his gifts, rewards, offerings, and generosity, then to You-azwj, O Lord-azwj, was my preparation, my equipping, my arrangement, my readiness, and my journey, and I have come as a delegate to the grave of Your-azwj Guardian, and through visiting him-asws, I seek nearness to You-azwj in hope of Your-azwj gifts, Your-azwj rewards, Your-azwj offerings, Your-azwj Generosity, and Your-azwj bounties!
اللَّهُمَّ وَ قَدْ رَجَوْتُ كَرِيمَ عَفْوِكَ وَ وَاسِعَ مَغْفِرَتِكَ فَلَا تَرُدَّنِي خَائِباً فَإِلَيْكَ قَصَدْتُ وَ مَا عِنْدَكَ أَرَدْتُ وَ قَبْرَ إِمَامِيَ الَّذِي أَوْجَبْتَ عَلَيَّ طَاعَتَهُ زُرْتُ فَاجْعَلْنِي بِهِ عِنْدَكَ وَجِيهاً فِي الدُّنْيا وَ الْآخِرَةِ
O Allah-azwj! I have hoped for Your-azwj Generous Pardon and Your-azwj vast Forgiveness, so do not turn me away disappointed. To You-azwj I have directed myself, and what is with You-azwj is what I seek. I have visited the grave of my Imam-asws, obedience to whom You-azwj have made obligatory upon me, so Make me through him-asws, honourable in Your-azwj Presence in this world and the Hereafter!
وَ أَعْطِنِي بِهِ جَمِيعَ سُؤْلِي وَ اقْضِ لِي بِهِ جَمِيعَ حَوَائِجِي وَ لَا تَقْطَعْ رَجَائِي وَ لَا تُخَيِّبْ دُعَائِي وَ ارْحَمْ ضَعْفِي وَ قِلَّةَ حِيلَتِي وَ لَا تَكِلْنِي إِلَى نَفْسِي وَ لَا إِلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ
And Grant me through him-asws entirety of my requests, and Fulfil for me though him-asws entirety of my needs, and do not Cut off my hopes, and do not disappoint my supplication, and Mercy my weakness and lack of my means, and do not Allocate me to myself nor to any one from Your-azwj creatures!
مَوْلَايَ فَقَدْ أَفْحَمَتْنِي ذُنُوبِي وَ قَطَعَتْ حُجَّتِي وَ ابْتُلِيتُ بِخَطِيئَتِي وَ ارْتُهِنْتُ بِعَمَلِي وَ أَوْبَقْتُ نَفْسِي وَ وَقَّفْتُهَا مَوْقِفَ الْأَذِلَّاءِ الْمُذْنِبِينَ الْمُجْتَرِئِينَ عَلَيْكَ التَّارِكِينَ أَمْرَكَ الْمُغْتَرِّينَ بِكَ الْمُسْتَخِفِّينَ بِوَعْدِكَ وَ قَدْ أَوْبَقَنِي مَا كَانَ مِنْ قَبِيحِ جُرْمِي وَ سُوءِ نَظَرِي لِنَفْسِي
My master! You-azwj have Made me understand my sins, and have Cut-off my arguments. I have been afflicted by my wrongdoing and held hostage by my deeds. I have destroyed myself and placed myself in the position of the humiliated, sinful, and defiant, those who have dared to disobey You-azwj, abandoned Your-azwj Command, been deceived by false hope in You-azwj, and taken lightly Your-azwj Warning. What has ruined me is the ugliness of my crime and my poor regard for myself!
فَارْحَمْ تَضَرُّعِي وَ نَدَامَتِي وَ أَقِلْنِي عَثْرَتِي وَ ارْحَمْ عَبْرَتِي وَ اقْبَلْ مَعْذِرَتِي وَ عُدْ بِحِلْمِكَ عَلَى جَهْلِي وَ بِإِحْسَانِكَ عَلَى إِسَاءَتِي وَ بِعَفْوِكَ عَلَى جُرْمِي وَ إِلَيْكَ أَشْكُو ضَعْفَ عَمَلِي فَارْحَمْنِي يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
Mercy my beseeching, and my remorse, and Uproot my stumbles, and Mercy my tears, and Accept my apologies, and Repeat with Your-azwj Forbearance upon my ignorance, and by Your-azwj Favour upon my evil deeds, and Your-azwj Pardon upon my crimes, and to You-azwj I complain of weakness of my deeds, so Mercy me, O the most Merciful of the merciful ones!
اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِي فَإِنِّي مُقِرٌّ بِذَنْبِي مُعْتَرِفٌ بِخَطِيئَتِي وَ هَذِهِ يَدِي وَ نَاصِيَتِي أَسْتَكِينُ بِالْفَقْرِ مِنِّي يَا سَيِّدِي فَاقْبَلْ تَوْبَتِي وَ نَفِّسْ كَرْبِي وَ ارْحَمْ خُشُوعِي وَ خُضُوعِي وَ أَسَفِي عَلَى مَا كَانَ مِنِّي وَ وُقُوفِي عِنْدَ قَبْرِ وَلِيِّكَ وَ ذُلِّي بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ فَأَنْتَ رَجَائِي وَ مُعْتَمَدِي وَ ظَهْرِي وَ عُدَّتِي فَلَا تَرُدَّنِي خَائِباً وَ تَقَبَّلْ عَمَلِي وَ اسْتُرْ عَوْرَتِي وَ آمِنْ رَوْعَتِي وَ لَا تُخَيِّبْنِي وَ لَا تَقْطَعْ رَجَائِي مِنْ بَيْنِ خَلْقِكَ يَا سَيِّدِي
O Allah-azwj! Forgive for me as I have accepted my sins and acknowledged my misdeeds, and my hand and my forelock, I humble myself in poverty before You-azwj, O my Master! Accept my repentance, Relieve my distress, have Mercy on my humility and submission on my sorrow for what I have done, on my standing at the grave of Your-azwj Guardian, and on my humiliation before You-azwj, for You-azwj are my hope, my reliance, my support, and my provision. Do not turn me away, disappointed, Accept my deeds, Cover my faults, Grant me safety from fear, do not disappoint me, and do not Cut off my hope among Your-azwj creatures, O my Master!
اللَّهُمَّ وَ قَدْ قُلْتَ فِي كِتَابِكَ الْمُنْزَلِ عَلَى نَبِيِّكَ الْمُرْسَلِ ص ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَسْتَكْبِرُونَ عَنْ عِبادَتِي سَيَدْخُلُونَ جَهَنَّمَ داخِرِينَ يَا رَبِّ وَ قَوْلُكَ الْحَقُّ وَ أَنْتَ الَّذِي لا تُخْلِفُ الْمِيعادَ فَاسْتَجِبْ لِي يَا رَبِّ
O Allah-azwj, and You-azwj have Said in Your-azwj Book Revealed unto Your-azwj Prophet-saww, the Sent: “Supplicate to Me, I will Answer you. Surely those who are too arrogant from worshipping Me would be entering Hell disgraced [40:60], and Your-azwj Word is the truth, and You-azwj are the One Who does not Break the Promise, so Answer for me, O Lord-azwj!
فَقَدْ سَأَلَكَ السَّائِلُونَ وَ سَأَلْتُكَ وَ طَلَبَ الطَّالِبُونَ وَ طَلَبْتُ مِنْكَ وَ رَغِبَ الرَّاغِبُونَ وَ رَغِبْتُ إِلَيْكَ وَ أَنْتَ أَهْلٌ أَنْ لَا تُخَيِّبَنِي وَ لَا تَقْطَعْ رَجَائِي فَعَرِّفْنِي الْإِجَابَةَ يَا سَيِّدِي وَ اقْضِ لِي حَوَائِجَ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
The requesters request You-azwj, and I am requesting You-azwj, and the seekers are seeking and I am seeking from You-azwj, and the desiring ones are desiring and I am desiring to You-azwj, and You-azwj are Rightful of not disappointing me, and do not Cut off my hopes! Introduce me to the Answer, O my Master, and Fulfil for me the needs of the world and the Hereafter, O the most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
ثُمَّ انْحَرِفْ إِلَى عِنْدِ الرَّأْسِ فَصَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ تَقْرَأُ فِي الْأُولَى مِنْهُمَا فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ وَ سُورَةَ يس وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ وَ سُورَةَ الرَّحْمَنِ فَإِذَا سَلَّمْتَ وَ سَبَّحْتَ تَسْبِيحَ الزَّهْرَاءِ ع مَجِّدِ اللَّهَ كَثِيراً وَ اسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنْبِكَ وَ صَلِّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص
Then turn to be, by the head and pray two units Salat, reading the first of these Surah Al Fatiha and Surah Yaseen, and in the second Surah Al Fatiha and Surah Al Rahman. When you have performed Salaam and have glorified the glorification of (Syeda) Al-Zahra, glorify Allah-azwj a lot and seek Forgiveness for your sins, and send Salawaat upon Rasool-Allah-saww.
ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ يَدَيْكَ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا أَتَيْنَاهُ مُؤْمِنِينَ بِهِ مُسَلِّمِينَ لَهُ مُعْتَصِمِينَ بِحَبْلِهِ عَارِفِينَ بِحَقِّهِ مُقِرِّينَ بِفَضْلِهِ مُسْتَبْصِرِينَ بِضَلَالَةِ مَنْ خَالَفَهُ عَارِفِينَ بِالْهُدَى الَّذِي هُوَ عَلَيْهِ
Then raise your hands and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! We have come to him-asws believing in him-asws, submitting to him-asws, holding on to his-asws rope, recognising his-asws right, accepting his-asws merits, insightful of the straying of the ones opposing him-asws, recognising the guidance which he-asws is upon!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أُشْهِدُكَ وَ أُشْهِدُ مَنْ حَضَرَ مِنْ مَلَائِكَتِكَ أَنِّي بِهِمْ مُؤْمِنٌ وَ بِمَنْ قَتَلَهُمْ كَافِرٌ
O Allah-azwj! I keep You-azwj as Witness, and I keep as witness ones from Your-azwj Angels who are present! I am a believer in them-asws and a disbeliever in the ones who killed them-asws!
اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ لِمَا أَقُولُ بِلِسَانِي حَقِيقَةً فِي قَلْبِي وَ شَرِيعَةً فِي عَمَلِي
O Allah-azwj! Make reality in my heart of what I am saying with my tongue, and practice in my actions!
اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْنِي مِمَّنْ لَهُ مَعَ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ قَدَمٌ ثَابِتٌ وَ أَثْبِتْنِي فِيمَنِ اسْتُشْهِدَ مَعَهُ
O Allah-azwj! Make me from the one having a firm footing for him with Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws, and Affirm me among the ones who were martyred with him-asws!
اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنِ الَّذِينَ بَدَّلُوا نِعْمَتَكَ كُفْراً سُبْحَانَكَ يَا حَلِيمُ عَمَّا يَعْمَلُ الظَّالِمُونَ فِي الْأَرْضِ يَا عَظِيمُ تَرَى عَظِيمَ الْجُرْمِ مِنْ عِبَادِكَ فَلَا تَعْجَلْ عَلَيْهِمْ فَتَعَالَيْتَ عَمَّا يَقُولُ الظَّالِمُونَ عُلُوّاً كَبِيراً
O Allah-azwj! Curse those who replaced Your-azwj bounties with denial (Kufr)! Glory be to You-azwj, O Forbearing, from what the unjust ones are doing on the earth! O Almighty! You-azwj See the mighty crimes from Your-azwj servants, so do not be Hasty upon them. Exalted are You-azwj from what the unjust ones are saying, Exalted, Great!
يَا كَرِيمُ أَنْتَ شَاهِدٌ غَيْرُ غَائِبٍ وَ عَالِمٌ بِمَا أَتَى إِلَى أَهْلِ صَلَوَاتِكَ وَ أَحِبَّائِكَ مِنَ الْأَمْرِ الَّذِي لَا تَحْمِلُهُ سَمَاءٌ وَ لَا أَرْضٌ وَ لَوْ شِئْتَ لَانْتَقَمْتَ مِنْهُمْ وَ لَكِنَّكَ ذُو أَنَاةٍ وَ قَدْ أَمْهَلْتَ الَّذِينَ اجْتَرَءُوا عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى رَسُولِكَ وَ حَبِيبِكَ
O Benevolent! You-azwj are Present, not absent, and a Knower of what matters have come to the people of Your-azwj Salawaat and Your-azwj Loved ones, matters which can neither be endured by a sky nor an earth, and had You-azwj so Desired, You-azwj could have Cut-off from them, but You-azwj are Possessor of patience and You-azwj have Respited those who have been audacious upon You-azwj and upon Your-azwj Rasool-saww and Your-azwj Beloved!
فَأَسْكَنْتَهُمْ أَرْضَكَ وَ غَذَوْتَهُمْ بِنِعْمَتِكَ إِلى أَجَلٍ هُمْ بالِغُوهُ وَ وَقْتٍ هُمْ صَائِرُونَ إِلَيْهِ لِيَسْتَكْمِلُوا الْعَمَلَ فِيهِ الَّذِي قَدَّرْتَ وَ الْأَجَلَ الَّذِي أَجَّلْتَ فِي عَذَابٍ وَ وَثَاقٍ وَ حَمِيمٍ وَ غَسَّاقٍ وَ الضَّرِيعِ وَ الْأَحْرَاقِ وَ الْأَغْلَالِ وَ الْأَوْثَاقِ وَ غِسْلِينٍ وَ زَقُّومٍ وَ صَدِيدٍ مَعَ طُولِ الْمُقَامِ فِي أَيَّامِ لَظَى وَ فِي سَقَرَ الَّتِي لا تُبْقِي وَ لا تَذَرُ فِي الْحَمِيمِ وَ الْجَحِيمِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ
You-azwj Settled them in Your-azwj earth and Provided them Your-azwj bounties up to a term while they were in vanities, and a time they will be coming to for them to be completing the deeds which Your-azwj have Pre-determined, and the term which You-azwj have Termed regarding Punishment, and shackles, and boiling water, and refuse, and the thorny bushes, and the burning, and the chains, and the bounds, and the vomit, and bitter fruit, and pus along with the lengthy stay in the days in flames, and in (the valley of) Saqar which neither lets remain nor leaves out in the boiling water and the blazing Fire, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of the worlds!’
ثُمَّ اسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنْبِكَ وَ ادْعُ بِمَا أَحْبَبْتَ فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ فَاسْجُدْ وَ قُلْ فِي سُجُودِكَ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أُشْهِدُكَ وَ أُشْهِدُ مَلَائِكَتَكَ وَ أَنْبِيَاءَكَ وَ رُسُلَكَ وَ جَمِيعَ خَلْقِكَ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ رَبِّي وَ الْإِسْلَامُ دِينِي
Then seek Forgiveness for your sins and supplicate with whatever you like. When you are free from the supplication, perform Sajdah and say in your Sajdah, ‘O Allah-azwj! I keep You-azwj as Witness, and I keep as witnesses Your-azwj Angels, and Your-azwj Prophets-as, and Your-azwj Messengers-as, and the entirety of Your-azwj creatures that surely You-azwj are Allah-azwj! There is no god except You-azwj, are my Lord-azwj, and Al-Islam is my religion!

And Muhammad-saww is my Prophet-saww, and Ali-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws, and Al-Husayn-asws, and Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws, and Muhammad-asws Bin Ali-asws, and Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws, and Musa-asws Bin Ja’far-asws, and Ali-asws Bin Musa-asws, and Muhammad-asws Bin Ali-asws, and Ali-asws Bin Muhammad-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws Bin Ali-asws, and the replacement, the remaining one, upon them-asws be the best Salawaat, are my Imams-asws! With them-asws I befriend and from their-asws enemies, I disavow! O Allah-azwj, I adjure You-azwj for the blood of the oppressed!’ (thrice)
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَنْشُدُكَ بِإِيوَائِكَ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ لِأَوْلِيَائِكَ لِتُظْفِرَنَّهُمْ بِعَدُوِّكَ وَ عَدُوِّهِمْ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلَى الْمُسْتَحْفَظِينَ مِنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
O Allah-azwj! I adjure to You-azwj by Your-azwj Commitment to Yourself-azwj for the Sake of Your-azwj allies, that You-azwj Grant them victory over Your-azwj enemy and their-asws enemy, and that You-azwj Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْيُسْرَ بَعْدَ الْعُسْرِ ثَلَاثاً
O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj for ease after the difficulty!’ (thrice)
ثُمَّ ضَعْ خَدَّكَ الْأَيْمَنَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ وَ قُلْ يَا كَهْفِي حِينَ تُعْيِينِي الْمَذَاهِبُ وَ تَضِيقُ عَلَيَّ الْأَرْضُ بِمَا رَحُبَتْ وَ يَا بَارِئَ خَلْقِي رَحْمَةً بِي وَ قَدْ كَانَ عَنْ خَلْقِي غَنِيّاً صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلَى الْمُسْتَحْفَظِينَ مِنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ثَلَاثاً
Then place your right cheek upon the ground and say, ‘O You-azwj who are my refuge when all paths exhaust me and the earth, vast as it is, feels tight upon me! O Creator of my being Who Sowed me Mercy though He-azwj was independent of creating me! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and upon the entrusted ones from the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww’ (thrice)
ثُمَّ ضَعْ خَدَّكَ الْأَيْسَرَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ وَ قُلْ يَا مُذِلَّ كُلِّ جَبَّارٍ وَ يَا مُعِزَّ كُلِّ ذَلِيلٍ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ فَرِّجْ عَنِّي
Then place your left cheek upon the ground and say, ‘O Humiliator of every tyrant, and O Honourer of every humiliated ones! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and Relieve me!’

Then say, ‘O Affectionate, O Bestower, O Removes of the mighty distress!’ (thrice)
ثُمَّ عُدْ إِلَى السُّجُودِ وَ قُلْ شُكْراً شُكْراً مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ وَ اسْأَلْ حَاجَتَكَ ثُمَّ امْضِ إِلَى عِنْدِ الرِّجْلَيْنِ فَقِفْ عَلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع وَ قُلْ سَلَامُ اللَّهِ وَ سَلَامُ مَلَائِكَتِهِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ وَ أَنْبِيَائِهِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ عِبَادِهِ الصَّالِحِينَ عَلَيْكَ يَا مَوْلَايَ وَ ابْنَ مَوْلَايَ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
Then return to the Sajdah and say, ‘Thanks! Thanks!’, one hundred times and ask Allah-azwj your need. Then continue to be by the legs. Pause by Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws (Ali Al-Akbar-asws), and say, ‘The greeting of Allah-azwj, and greeting of His-azwj Angels of Proximity, and His-azwj Messenger Prophets-as, and His-azwj righteous servants be upon you-asws, O my master and son-asws of my master, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!
وَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتِكَ وَ عَلَى عِتْرَةِ آبَائِكَ الْأَخْيَارِ الْأَبْرَارِ الَّذِينَ أَذْهَبَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمُ الرِّجْسَ وَ طَهَّرَهُمْ تَطْهِيراً وَ عَذَّبَ اللَّهُ قَاتِلَكَ بِأَنْوَاعِ الْعَذَابِ وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
And may Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws, and upon People-asws of your-asws Household, and upon the family of your-asws forefathers-asws, the goodly, the righteous, those Allah-azwj had Kept the uncleanness away from them-asws and Purified them-asws a Purification, and may Allah-azwj Punish your-asws killers with a variety of the Punishment, and the greeting be upon you-asws and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!’
ثُمَّ أَوْمِ إِلَى نَاحِيَةِ الرِّجْلَيْنِ بِالسَّلَامِ عَلَى الشُّهَدَاءِ فَإِنَّهُمْ هُنَاكَ وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَيُّهَا الرَّبَّانِيُّونَ أَنْتُمْ لَنَا فَرَطٌ وَ نَحْنُ لَكُمْ تَبَعٌ وَ أَنْصَارٌ
Then gesture towards the area of the legs with the greeting upon the martyrs, for they are over there, and say, ‘The greeting be upon you all, O the spiritualists! You have preceded us and we are followers of yours and helpers!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكُمْ أَنْصَارُ اللَّهِ جَلَّ اسْمُهُ وَ سَادَةُ الشُّهَدَاءِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ صَبَرْتُمْ وَ احْتَسَبْتُمْ وَ لَمْ تَهِنُوا وَ لَمْ تَضْعُفُوا وَ لَمْ تَسْتَكِينُوا حَتَّى لَقِيتُمُ اللَّهَ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ عَلَى سَبِيلِ الْحَقِّ وَ نَصْرِهِ وَ كَلِمَةُ اللَّهِ التَّامَّةُ
I testify you are helpers of Allah-azwj, Majestic is His-azwj Name, and you are chiefs of the martyrs in the world and the Hereafter! You were patient, and anticipated, and were not feeble and did not weaken, and you did not hesitate until you met Allah-azwj Majestic and Mighty upon the way of truth and helped him-asws and the Complete Word of Allah-azwj!
صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى أَرْوَاحِكُمْ وَ أَبْدَانِكُمْ وَ سَلَّمَ تَسْلِيماً أَبْشِرُوا رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ بِمَوْعِدِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا خُلْفَ لَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى مُدْرِكٌ بِكُمْ ثَارَ مَا وَعَدَكُمْ إِنَّهُ لا يُخْلِفُ الْمِيعادَ
May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon your souls and your bodies, and abundant greetings! Receive glad tidings of the Pleasure of Allah-azwj upon you with the Promise of Allah-azwj which there is no breaking for it! Allah-azwj the Exalted will Realised with you retaliation of what He-azwj has Promised you. Surely, He-azwj does not Break the Promise!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكُمْ جَاهَدْتُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَ قُتِلْتُمْ عَلَى مِنْهَاجِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَ ابْنِ رَسُولِهِ ص فَجَزَاكُمُ اللَّهُ عَنِ الرَّسُولِ وَ ابْنِهِ وَ ذُرِّيَّتِهِ أَفْضَلَ الْجَزَاءِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي صَدَقَكُمْ وَعْدَهُ وَ أَرَاكُمْ مَا تُحِبُّونَ
I testify you had fought in the way of Allah-azwj were killed being upon the manifesto of Rasool-Allah-saww and son-asws of His-azwj Rasool-saww! May Allah-azwj Recompense you all on behalf of the Rasool-saww, and his-saww son-asws, and his-saww offspring, the best Recompense! The Praise is for Allah-azwj Who Made His-azwj Promise come true and Showed you what you loved (to be shown)!’
ثُمَّ امْشِ حَتَّى تَأْتِيَ مَشْهَدَ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع فَإِذَا أَتَيْتَ فَقِفْ عَلَى بَابِ السَّقِيفَةِ وَ قُلْ سَلَامُ اللَّهِ وَ سَلَامُ مَلَائِكَتِهِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ وَ أَنْبِيَائِهِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ عِبَادِهِ الصَّالِحِينَ وَ جَمِيعِ الشُّهَدَاءِ وَ الصِّدِّيقِينَ وَ الزَّاكِيَاتِ الطَّيِّبَاتِ فِيمَا تَغْتَدِي وَ تَرُوحُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
Then walk until you come to the Shrine of Al-Abbas-asws Bin Ali-asws. When you do, pause at the door of the tent and say, ‘The Greeting of Allah-azwj, and greetings of His-azwj Angels of Proximity, and His-azwj Messenger Prophets-as, and His-azwj righteous servants, and entirety of the martyrs and the truthful, and the pure, the goodly among what go and come to you-asws, be upon you-asws, O son-asws of Amir Al-Momineen-asws!
أَشْهَدُ لَكَ بِالتَّسْلِيمِ وَ التَّصْدِيقِ وَ الْوَفَاءِ وَ النَّصِيحَةِ لِخَلَفِ النَّبِيِّ ص الْمُرْسَلِ وَ السِّبْطِ الْمُنْتَجَبِ وَ الدَّلِيلِ الْعَالِمِ وَ الْوَصِيِّ الْمُبَلِّغِ وَ الْمَظْلُومِ الْمُهْتَضَمِ
I testify to you-asws with the submission, and the ratification, and the loyalty, and the advice to a replacement of the Sent Prophet-azwj, and the selected grandson-asws, and the pointer, the knowledgeable, and the successor, the deliverer and the oppressed, the wronged!
فَجَزَاكَ اللَّهُ عَنْ رَسُولِهِ وَ عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ وَ عَنْ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ وَ الْحُسَيْنِ أَفْضَلَ الْجَزَاءِ بِمَا صَبَرْتَ وَ احْتَسَبْتَ وَ أَعَنْتَ فَنِعْمَ عُقْبَى الدَّارِ
May Allah-azwj Recompense you-asws on behalf of His-azwj Rasool-as, and on behalf of Fatima-asws, and on behalf of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and on behalf of Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws, the best Recompense due to you-asws having been patient, and anticipated, and assisted, so the best outcome is the ever-lasting House!
لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ قَتَلَكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ جَهِلَ حَقَّكَ وَ اسْتَخَفَّ بِحُرْمَتِكَ وَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ حَالَ بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ مَاءِ الْفُرَاتِ
May Allah-azwj Curse the one who killed you-asws, and may Allah-azwj Curse the one who ignored your-asws right, and took lightly with your-asws sanctity, and may Allah-azwj Curse the one who hindered between you-asws and water of the Euphrates!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ قُتِلْتَ مَظْلُوماً وَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ مُنْجِزٌ لَكُمْ مَا وَعَدَكُمْ
I testify you-asws were killed unjustly, and Allah-azwj will Fulfil for you all what He-azwj has Promised you-asws!
جِئْتُكَ يَا ابْنَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَافِداً إِلَيْكُمْ وَ قَلْبِي مُسَلِّمٌ لَكُمْ وَ أَنَا لَكُمْ تَابِعٌ وَ نُصْرَتِي لَكُمْ مُعَدَّةٌ حَتَّى يَحْكُمَ اللَّهُ وَ هُوَ خَيْرُ الْحاكِمِينَ فَمَعَكُمْ مَعَكُمْ لَا مَعَ عَدُوِّكُمْ إِنِّي بِكُمْ وَ بِإِيَابِكُمْ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ بِمَنْ خَالَفَكُمْ وَ قَتَلَكُمْ مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ أُمَّةً قَتَلَتْكُمْ بِالْأَيْدِي وَ الْأَلْسُنِ
I have come to you-asws, O son-asws of Amir Al-Momineen-asws, as a delegate to you, and my heart is submissive to you-asws, and I am a follower of yours-asws, and my help for you-asws is prepared until Allah-azwj Decides, and He-azwj is Best of the deciders!

May Allah-azwj Curse the community which killed you-asws with the hands and the tongues!’
ثُمَّ ادْخُلْ وَ انْكَبَّ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الْعَبْدُ الصَّالِحُ الْمُطِيعُ لِلَّهِ وَ لِرَسُولِهِ وَ لِأَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْحَسَنِ وَ الْحُسَيْنِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَ سَلَّمَ وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ وَ مَغْفِرَتُهُ وَ عَلَى رُوحِكَ وَ بَدَنِكَ
Then enter and devote upon the grave and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws, O the righteous servant, the obedient to Allah-azwj and to His-azwj Rasool-saww, and to Amir Al-Momineen-asws, and Al-Hassan-asws and Al-Husayn-asws!

The greeting be upon you-asws, and Mercy of Allah-azwj, and His-azwj Blessings, and His-azwj Forgiveness, and upon your-asws soul and your-asws body!’
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ مَضَيْتَ عَلَى مَا مَضَى عَلَيْهِ الْبَدْرِيُّونَ وَ الْمُجَاهِدُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ الْمُنَاصِحُونَ لَهُ فِي جِهَادِ أَعْدَائِهِ الْمُبَالِغُونَ فِي نُصْرَةِ أَوْلِيَائِهِ الذَّابُّونَ عَنْ أَحِبَّائِهِ فَجَزَاكَ اللَّهُ أَفْضَلَ الْجَزَاءِ وَ أَوْفَرَ جَزَاءِ أَحَدٍ مِمَّنْ وَفَى بِبَيْعَتِهِ وَ اسْتَجَابَ لَهُ دَعْوَتَهُ وَ أَطَاعَ وُلَاةَ أَمْرِهِ
I testify you-asws had passed upon what the (Holy warriors) of Badr had passed upon, and the Holy warriors in the way of Allah-azwj, and the advisers to him-asws in fighting against his-asws enemies, the ones extensive in helping his-asws friends, the defenders of his-asws loved ones! May Allah-azwj Recompense you-asws the best Recompense, and most plentiful Recompense, (better than) anyone from the ones who had been loyal with his-asws allegiance, and answered his-asws call, and obeyed the Guardians of His-azwj Command!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ قَدْ بَالَغْتَ فِي النَّصِيحَةِ وَ أَعْطَيْتَ غَايَةَ الْمَجْهُودِ فَبَعَثَكَ اللَّهُ فِي الشُّهَدَاءِ وَ جَعَلَ رُوحَكَ مَعَ أَرْوَاحِ السُّعَدَاءِ وَ أَعْطَاكَ مِنْ جِنَانِهِ أَفْسَحَهَا مَنْزِلًا وَ أَفْضَلَهَا غُرَفاً وَ رَفَعَ ذِكْرَكَ فِي الْعِلِّيِّينَ وَ حَشَرَكَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ الصِّدِّيقِينَ وَ الشُّهَداءِ وَ الصَّالِحِينَ وَ حَسُنَ أُولئِكَ رَفِيقاً
I testify you-asws have been extensive in the advice, and obeyed the peak of efforts! May Allah-azwj Resurrect you-asws among the martyrs, and Make your-asws soul to be with the fortunate ones, and Grant you-asws from His-azwj Gardens, its most extensive dwelling, and its best chamber, and Raise your-asws mention in the Illiyeen, and Gather you-asws with the Prophets and the Truthful and the Martyrs and the Righteous; and a goodly company are they! [4:69]!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ لَمْ تَهِنْ وَ لَمْ تَنْكُلْ وَ أَنَّكَ مَضَيْتَ عَلَى بَصِيرَةٍ مِنْ أَمْرِكَ مُقْتَدِياً بِالصَّالِحِينَ وَ مُتَّبِعاً لِلنَّبِيِّينَ فَجَمَعَ اللَّهُ بَيْنَنَا وَ بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ رَسُولِهِ وَ أَوْلِيَائِهِ فِي مَنَازِلِ الْمُخْبِتِينَ فَإِنَّهُ أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَ
I testify you-asws did not weaken, and were not feeble, and you-asws passed upon insight or your-asws matter leading with the righteous ones, and as a follower of the Prophets-as! May Allah-azwj Gather between us and you-asws, and His-azwj Rasool-saww, and His-azwj Guardians in the dwellings of the Selected ones, for He-azwj is most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
ثُمَّ انْحَرِفْ إِلَى عِنْدِ الرَّأْسِ فَصَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ صَلِّ بَعْدَهُمَا مَا بَدَا لَكَ وَ ادْعُ اللَّهَ كَثِيراً وَ قُلْ عَقِيبَ الرَّكَعَاتِ اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ لَا تَدَعْ لِي فِي هَذَا الْمَكَانِ الْمُكَرَّمِ وَ الْمَشْهَدِ الْمُعَظَّمِ ذَنْباً إِلَّا غَفَرْتَهُ وَ لَا هَمّاً إِلَّا فَرَّجْتَهُ وَ لَا مَرَضاً إِلَّا شَفَيْتَهُ وَ لَا عَيْباً إِلَّا سَتَرْتَهُ وَ لَا رِزْقاً إِلَّا بَسَطْتَهُ وَ لَا خَوْفاً إِلَّا آمَنْتَهُ وَ لَا شَمْلًا إِلَّا جَمَعْتَهُ وَ لَا غَائِباً إِلَّا حَفِظْتَهُ وَ أَدَّيْتَهُ وَ لَا حَاجَةً مِنْ حَوَائِجِ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ لَكَ فِيهَا رِضًى وَ لِي فِيهَا صَلَاحٌ إِلَّا قَضَيْتَهَا يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
Then turn to be by the head. Pray two units Salat, then pray after these whatever comes to you, and supplicate to Allah-azwj and lot and say as a follow-up of the two units of Salat, ‘O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and neither leave for me in this honourable place, and the revered Shrine, any sin except Forgive it, nor any worry except Relieve it, nor sickness except heal it, nor a defect except Cover it, nor sustenance except Extend it, nor fear except Secure it, nor family except Gather it, nor an absentee except Protect him and Secure him, nor any need from needs of the world and the Hereafter, there is Pleasure for You-azwj in it and correction for me in it, except Fulfil it, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
ثُمَّ عُدْ إِلَى الضَّرِيحِ فَقِفْ عِنْدَ الرِّجْلَيْنِ وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا الْفَضْلِ الْعَبَّاسَ بْنَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ سَيِّدِ الْوَصِيِّينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا ابْنَ أَوَّلِ الْقَوْمِ إِسْلَاماً وَ أَقْدَمِهِمْ إِيمَاناً وَ أَقْوَمِهِمْ بِدِينِ اللَّهِ وَ أَحْوَطِهِمْ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ
Then return to the Shrine and pause by the legs, and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O Abu Al-Fazl Al-Abbas-asws son-asws of Amir Al-Momineen-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of chief of the successors-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws O son-asws of the first of the people in Islam, and their most precedent in Eman, and their strongest with the religion of Allah-azwj, and their most encompassing of them upon Al-Islam!
أَشْهَدُ لَقَدْ نَصَحْتَ لِلَّهِ وَ لِرَسُولِهِ وَ لِأَخِيكَ فَنِعْمَ الْأَخُ الْمُوَاسِي
I testify you-asws had advised for Allah-azwj and for His-azwj Rasool-saww and for your-asws brother-asws! You-asws were the best comforting brother-asws!

Then devote upon the grave, so kiss it and say, ‘May my father and my mother be (sacrificed for) you-asws O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! May my father and my mother be (sacrificed for) you-asws O Abu Abdullah-asws! Your-asws calamity is magnified and the tragedy with you-asws is immense upon us and upon the entirety of inhabitants of the skies and the earth! May Allah-azwj Curse the community which saddled and bridles (the war horses) and prepared to battle you-asws!
يَا مَوْلَايَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَصَدْتُ حَرَمَكَ وَ أَتَيْتُ مَشْهَدَكَ أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ بِالشَّأْنِ الَّذِي لَكَ عِنْدَهُ وَ بِالْمَحَلِّ الَّذِي لَكَ لَدَيْهِ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي مَعَكُمْ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ
O my master, O Abu Abdullah-asws! I have aimed to your-asws sanctuary and have come to your-asws Shrine. I ask Allah-azwj by the Glory which is for you-asws in His-azwj Presence, and by the position which is for you-asws before Him-azwj, for Him-azwj to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and to Make me with you-asws all in the world and the Hereafter!’
ثُمَّ صَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ عِنْدَ الرَّأْسِ تَقْرَأُ فِيهِمَا مَا أَحْبَبْتَ وَ ادْعُ اللَّهَ بِمَا أَرَدْتَ ثُمَّ قُمْ وَ امْضِ وَ سَلِّمْ عَلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ عَلَى الشُّهَدَاءِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ الْحُسَيْنِ بِمَا ذَكَرْنَاهُ أَوَّلًا ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ وَ صَلِّ عَلَيْهِ بِهَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ
Then pray two units Salat by the head, reading in these whatever you like, and supplicate to Allah-azwj with whatever you want, then stand and continue and greet upon Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws (Ali Al-Akbar-asws), and upon the martyrs from the companions of Al-Husayn-asws with what we have mentioned at first. Then raise your head and Send upon him-asws this Salawaat, may Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon him-asws: –
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ صَلِّ عَلَى الْحُسَيْنِ الْمَظْلُومِ الشَّهِيدِ قَتِيلِ الْعَبَرَاتِ وَ أَسِيرِ الْكُرُبَاتِ صَلَاةً نَامِيَةً زَاكِيَةً مُبَارَكَةً يَصْعَدُ أَوَّلُهَا وَ لَا يُنْفَذُ آخِرُهَا أَفْضَلَ مَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْ أَوْلَادِ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ الْمُرْسَلِينَ يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ
O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and Send Salawaat upon Al-Husayn-asws the oppressed, the martyr, killed being tearful, and the captive of distress, a developing Salawaat, pure, Blessed, its beginning ascending and its ending not depleting, the best of what You-azwj have Sent upon anyone from the children of the Prophets-as and the Messengers-as, O Lord-azwj of the worlds!
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى الْإِمَامِ الشَّهِيدِ الْمَقْتُولِ الْمَظْلُومِ الْمَخْذُولِ وَ السَّيِّدِ الْقَائِدِ الْعَابِدِ الزَّاهِدِ الْوَصِيِّ الْخَلِيفَةِ الْإِمَامِ الصِّدِّيقِ الطُّهْرِ الطَّاهِرِ الطَّيِّبِ الْمُبَارَكِ وَ الرَّضِيِّ الْمَرْضِيِّ وَ التَّقِيِّ الْهَادِي الْمَهْدِيِّ الزَّاهِدِ الذَّائِدِ الْمُجَاهِدِ الْعَالِمِ إِمَامِ الْهُدَى وَ سِبْطِ الرَّسُولِ وَ قُرَّةِ عَيْنِ الْبَتُولِ ص
O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon the martyr, the killed, the abandoned, and the chief, the leader, the servant, the ascetic, the successor-asws, the caliph, the Imam-asws, the truthful, the purifier, the pure, the goodly, the Blessed, the contented, the Satisfied with, and the pious, the guide, the guided, the ascetic, the defender, the fighter, the knowledgeable, the Imam-asws of guidance, and grandson-asws of the Rasool-saww, and delight of eyes of the chaste (Syeda Fatima-asws)!
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى سَيِّدِي وَ مَوْلَايَ كَمَا عَمِلَ بِطَاعَتِكَ وَ نَهَى عَنْ مَعْصِيَتِكَ وَ بَالَغَ فِي رِضْوَانِكَ وَ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى إِيمَانِكَ غَيْرَ قَابِلٍ فِيكَ عُذْراً سِرّاً وَ عَلَانِيَةً
O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon my chief and my master just as he-asws had worked in Your-azwj obedience, and forbade from disobedience to You-azwj, and was extensive in Your-azwj Pleasure, turned wholeheartedly to faith in You-azwj, never seeking any excuse before You-azwj neither in secret nor in public.
يَدْعُو الْعِبَادَ إِلَيْكَ وَ يَدُلُّهُمْ عَلَيْكَ وَ قَامَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ يَهْدِمُ الْجَوْرَ بِالصَّوَابِ وَ يُحْيِي السُّنَّةَ بِالْكِتَابِ فَعَاشَ فِي رِضْوَانِكَ مَكْدُوداً وَ مَضَى عَلَى طَاعَتِكَ وَ فِي أَوْلِيَائِكَ مَكْدُوحاً وَ قَضَى إِلَيْكَ مَفْقُوداً لَمْ يَعْصِكَ فِي لَيْلٍ وَ لَا فِي نَهَارٍ بَلْ جَاهَدَ فِيكَ الْمُنَافِقِينَ وَ الْكُفَّارَ
He-asws called Your-azwj servants to You-azwj, guided them toward You-azwj, stood before You-azwj demolishing injustice with truth, and revived the Sunnah through the Book! He-asws lived in Your-azwj pleasure, weary in Your-azwj service, and departed upon obedience to You-azwj, oppressed among Your-azwj chosen ones. He-asws returned to You-azwj as one missed and lost, never having disobeyed You-azwj neither by night nor by day. Rather, he-asws strove in Your-azwj cause against the hypocrites and disbelievers!
اللَّهُمَّ فَاجْزِهِ خَيْرَ جَزَاءِ الصَّادِقِينَ الْأَبْرَارِ وَ ضَاعِفْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْعَذَابَ وَ لِقَاتِلِيهِ الْعِقَابَ فَقَدْ قَاتَلَ كَرِيماً وَ قُتِلَ مَظْلُوماً وَ مَضَى مَرْحُوماً يَقُولُ أَنَا ابْنُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ ابْنُ مَنْ زَكَّى وَ عَبَدَ
O Allah-azwj! Reward him-asws the best Reward of the truthful, the righteous, and Double the Punishment upon them and torment for his-asws killers. He-asws fought honourably and was killed unjustly, and passed away Mercied. He-asws said: ‘I-asws am son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww Muhammad-saww, and son-asws of the pure one who worshipped!’
فَقَتَلُوهُ بِالْعَمْدِ الْمُعْتَمَدِ قَتَلُوهُ عَلَى الْإِيمَانِ وَ أَطَاعُوا فِي قَتْلِهِ الشَّيْطَانَ وَ لَمْ يُرَاقِبُوا فِيهِ الرَّحْمَنَ
They killed him-asws with deliberate intent. They killed him-asws being upon the Eman and they obeyed the Satan-la in killing him-asws, and they did not watch out for the Beneficent during it!
اللَّهُمَّ فَصَلِّ عَلَى سَيِّدِي وَ مَوْلَايَ صَلَاةً تَرْفَعُ بِهَا ذِكْرَهُ وَ تُظْهِرُ بِهَا أَمْرَهُ وَ تُعَجِّلُ بِهَا نَصْرَهُ وَ اخْصُصْهُ بِأَفْضَلِ قِسَمِ الْفَضَائِلِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَ زِدْهُ شَرَفاً فِي أَعْلَى عِلِّيِّينَ وَ بَلِّغْهُ أَعْلَى شَرَفِ الْمُكَرَّمِينَ وَ ارْفَعْهُ مِنْ شَرَفِ رَحْمَتِكَ فِي شَرَفِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ فِي الرَّفِيعِ الْأَعْلَى وَ بَلِّغْهُ الْوَسِيلَةَ وَ الْمَنْزِلَةَ الْجَلِيلَةَ وَ الْفَضْلَ وَ الْفَضِيلَةَ وَ الْكَرَامَةَ الْجَزِيلَةَ
O Allah-azwj, Send Salawaat upon my chief and my master with a Salawaat through which You-azwj Elevate his-asws mention, and Manifest his-asws cause, and Hasten his-asws victory, and Grant him-asws the highest share of virtues on the Day of Qiyamah! Increase his-asws honour in the highest of the high, and Convey him to the utmost rank of the honoured ones. Raise him-asws by the nobility of Your-azwj Mercy to the nobility of those brought near, in the highest elevated place! Grant him the means, the lofty station, and the great rank, and the excellence, and the immense honour!
اللَّهُمَّ وَ اجْزِهِ عَنَّا أَفْضَلَ مَا جَازَيْتَ إِمَاماً عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ وَ صَلِّ عَلَى سَيِّدِي وَ مَوْلَايَ كُلَّمَا ذُكِرَ وَ كُلَّمَا لَمْ يُذْكَرْ
O Allah-azwj! Reward him on our behalf with the best reward You-azwj have ever Given to an Imam on behalf of his followers, and Send Salawaat upon my chief and my master whenever he-asws is mentioned and whenever he-asws is not mentioned!
يَا سَيِّدِي وَ مَوْلَايَ أَدْخِلْنِي فِي حِزْبِكَ وَ زُمْرَتِكَ وَ اسْتَوْهِبْنِي مِنْ رَبِّكَ وَ رَبِّي فَإِنَّ لَكَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ جَاهاً وَ قَدْراً وَ مَنْزِلَةً رَفِيعَةً إِنْ سَأَلْتَ أُعْطِيتَ وَ إِنْ شَفَعْتَ شُفِّعْتَ
O my chief and my master! Enter me in your-asws party and your group, and Grant me as a gift from your-asws Lord-azwj and mine, for you-asws have status, worth, and an exalted rank with Allah-azwj. If you-asws ask, you-asws are Granted, and if you-asws intercede, your-asws intercession is Accepted!
اللَّهَ اللَّهَ فِي عَبْدِكَ وَ مَوْلَاكَ لَا تُخَلِّنِي عِنْدَ الشَّدَائِدِ وَ الْأَهْوَالِ لِسُوءِ عَمَلِي وَ قَبِيحِ فِعْلِي وَ عَظِيمِ جُرْمِي فَإِنَّكَ أَمَلِي وَ رَجَائِي وَ ثِقَتِي وَ مُعْتَمَدِي وَ وَسِيلَتِي إِلَى اللَّهِ رَبِّي وَ رَبِّكَ
Allah-azwj, Allah-azwj, regarding Your-azwj servant and devotee! Do not abandon me in times of hardship and terror because of my evil deeds, my shameful actions, and my great offenses for you-asws are my hope, my aspiration, my trust, my reliance, and my means to Allah-azwj, your-asws Lord-azwj and mine!
لَمْ يَتَوَسَّلِ الْمُتَوَسِّلُونَ إِلَى اللَّهِ بِوَسِيلَةٍ هِيَ أَعْظَمُ حَقّاً وَ لَا أَوْجَبُ حُرْمَةً وَ لَا أَجَلُّ قَدْراً عِنْدَهُ مِنْكُمْ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ
The seekers of means to Allah-azwj will not seek mean which is of mightier right, nor of more obligatory sanctity, nor any of more majestic worth in His-azwj Presence than you-asws all, People-asws of the Household.
لَا خَلَّفَنِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْكُمْ بِذُنُوبِي وَ جَمَعَنِي وَ إِيَّاكُمْ فِي جَنَّةِ عَدْنٍ الَّتِي أَعَدَّهَا لَكُمْ وَ لِأَوْلِيَائِكُمْ إِنَّهُ خَيْرُ الْغَافِرِينَ وَ أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَ
May Allah-azwj Keep me behind from you-asws all due to my sins, and Gather me and you-asws in the Garden of Eden which He-azwj has Prepared for you-asws and for your-asws friends. He-azwj is Best of the forgivers and most Merciful of the merciful ones!
اللَّهُمَّ أَبْلِغْ سَيِّدِي وَ مَوْلَايَ تَحِيَّةً كَثِيرَةً وَ سَلَاماً وَ ارْدُدْ عَلَيْنَا مِنْهُ التَّحِيَّةَ وَ السَّلَامَ إِنَّكَ جَوَادٌ كَرِيمٌ وَ صَلِّ عَلَيْهِ كُلَّمَا ذُكِرَ السَّلَامُ وَ كُلَّمَا لَمْ يُذْكَرْ يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ
O Allah-azwj, my Chief and my Master! Deliver a lot of salutations and greetings, and Respond the salutation to us from him-asws and the greeting, You-azwj are Generous, Benevolent, and Send Salawaat upon him-asws every time the greeting is mentioned and every time it is not mentioned, O Lord-azwj of the worlds!’
ثُمَّ صَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ لِلزِّيَارَةِ وَ ادْعُ بَعْدَهُمَا بِمَا قَدَّمْنَاهُ عَقِيبَ صَلَاةِ زِيَارَتِهِ الْأُولَى وَ شَرَحْنَاهُ وَ زُرْ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ الشُّهَدَاءَ أَيْضاً عَلَى ذَلِكَ الْوَجْهِ الَّذِي ذَكَرْنَاهُ هُنَاكَ وَ حَرَّرْنَاهُ وَ كَذَلِكَ فِي الْوَدَاعِ وَ مَا جَرَى مَجْرَاهُ.
Then pray two units Salat for the Ziyarat and supplicate after these with what we have preceded with as follow-up of Salat of the first Ziyarat and we have explained it, and after that visit Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws and the martyrs as well upon that the aspect of which we have mentioned over there and elaborated, and like is regarding bidding the farewell and what flows its flow’’.[222]
35- زِيَارَةٌ أُخْرَى مُطْلَقَةٌ رَوَاهَا السَّيِّدُ قَدَّسَ اللَّهُ رُوحَهُ قَالَ رُوِيَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى الْحُسَيْنَ ع فَأَنَاخَ رَاحِلَتَهُ بِقُرْبِ الظِّلَالِ وَ نَزَلَ وَ عَلَيْهِ حِلْيَةُ الْأَعْرَابِ ثُمَّ مَضَى نَحْوَ الضَّرِيحِ وَ عَلَيْهِ سَكِينَةٌ وَ وَقَارٌ حَتَّى وَقَفَ بِبَابِ الظِّلَالِ ثُمَّ أَوْمَأَ بِيَدِهِ نَحْوَ الضَّرِيحِ وَ قَالَ
Another general Ziyarat reported by the Seyyid, may Allah-azwj Sanctify his soul, said, ‘It is reported that a man came to Abu Al-Husayn-asws. He rested his mount nearby the shad and descended, and upon him was appearance of the Bedouins. Then went towards the Shrine and upon him was calmness and dignity until he paused at the door of the shade. Then he gestured towards the Shrine and said,
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَلِيَّ اللَّهِ وَ حُجَّتَهُ سَلَامَ مُسَلِّمٍ لِلَّهِ فِيكَ رَادٍّ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَ إِلَيْكَ مُرَاعٍ حَقَّ مَا اسْتَرْعَاكَ اللَّهُ خَلْقَهُ وَ اسْتَرْعَاكَ حَقَّهُ فَأَنْتَ حُجَّتُهُ الْكُبْرَى وَ كَلِمَتُهُ الْعُظْمَى وَ طَرِيقَتُهُ الْمُثْلَى وَ حُجَّتُهُ عَلَى أَهْلِ الدُّنْيَا وَ خَلِيفَتُهُ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَ السَّمَاوَاتِ الْعُلَى
‘The greeting be upon you-asws O Guardian of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Divine Authority, greeting from one who submits to Allah-azwj through you-asws, returning to Allah-azwj and to you-asws, observing the right which Allah-azwj Entrusted you-asws with over His-azwj creatures and over His-azwj Right, for you are His-azwj great Divine Authority, His -azwj supreme Word, His-azwj most perfect path, and His-asws argument against the people of the world. You-azwj are His-azwj caliph on earth and in the highest skies!
أَتَيْتُكَ زَائِراً وَ لِآلَاءِ اللَّهِ ذَاكِراً أَصْبَحَ ذَنْبِي عَظِيماً وَ أَصْبَحْتَ بِهِ عَلِيماً فَكُنْ لِي بِحَطِّهِ زَعِيماً صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ وَ سَلَّمَ تَسْلِيماً
I have come to visit you, remembering the Favours of Allah-azwj. My sin has become great, and you-asws have become fully aware of it, so be my leader in its removal. May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws and abundant greetings!’
ثُمَّ حَطَّ خَدَّهُ عَلَى الضَّرِيحِ وَ قَالَ أَتَيْتُكَ لِلذُّنُوبِ مُقْتَرِفاً فَكُنْ لِي إِلَى اللَّهِ شَافِعاً فَهَا أَنَا ذَا قَدْ جِئْتُ عَنْهُنَّ نَازِعاً إِلَى اللَّهِ أَتَنَصَّلُ وَ بِكُمْ يَا آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ أَتَوَسَّلُ الْآخِرَ مِنْكُمْ وَ الْأَوَّلَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ سَلَّمَ وَ كَرَّمَ وَ أَجْزَلَ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
Then he placed his cheek upon the Shrine and said, ‘I have come to you acknowledging of the sins, so be an intercessor for me to Allah-azwj! Here I am I have come to you burdened with sins, so be an intercessor for me with Allah. Here I am, having turned away from them, returning to Allah-azwj, seeking to absolve myself, and through you-asws O Progeny-asws of Muhammad-azwj, I seek intercession of the last of you and the first. May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-asws, and greetings, and Benevolence, and abundance, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!’
ثُمَّ وَقَفَ وَ الضَّرِيحُ قِبْلَتُهُ فَصَلَّى وَ أَكْثَرَ مَا لَمْ أُحْصِهِ ثُمَّ دَعَا وَ اسْتَغْفَرَ وَ سَجَدَ وَ عَفَّرَ فَدَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ إِلَهِي إِيَّاكَ قَصَدْتُ وَ إِلَى وَلِيِّكَ وَ ابْنِ وَلِيِّكَ وَفَدْتُ نَازِلًا بِعُقُوبَتِكَ عَائِذاً بِعَفْوِكَ مِنْ عُقُوبَتِكَ
Then he paused near the Shrine, which was before him. He prayed Salat and frequented what I could not hear. Then he supplicated and sought Forgiveness and performed Sajdah and rubbed his cheeks (on the ground). I went near him and heard him saying in his Sajda, ‘My God-azwj! I have aimed to You-azwj and to Your-azwj Guardian, and son-asws of Your-azwj Guardian, descending under the weight of Your punishment, seeking refuge in Your pardon from Your punishment!
فَارْحَمْ غُرْبَتِي وَ أَقِلْ عَثْرَتِي وَ اقْبَلْ تَوْبَتِي وَ أَحْسِنْ أَوْبَتِي مَشْكُورَ الْبَصِيرَةِ مَغْفُورَ الْعَلَانِيَةِ وَ السَّرِيرَةِ مِنْ كُلِّ كَبِيرَةٍ وَ صَغِيرَةٍ
Mercy my tears, and Uproot my stumbles, and Accept my repentance, and Make my return good, one that is appreciated in insight, Forgiven in both announced and the secretive, from every major and minor sin!
اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْ ضَرَاعَتِي إِلَيْكَ وَ تَقَبَّلْ شَفَاعَتِي بِهِ إِلَيْكَ وَ اقْضِ حَاجَتِي وَ وَسِيلَتِي بِهِ لَدَيْكَ وَ اجْعَلْهَا نَجَاتِي مِنَ النَّارِ وَ سُوءِ هَذِهِ الدَّارِ وَ حَطِيطَةً لِذُنُوبِي وَ الْآصَارِ يَا عَالِمَ الْخَفَايَا وَ الْأَسْرَارِ
O Allah-azwj! Mercy my beseeching to You-azwj and Accept my intercession through him-asws, and Fulfil my needs and my seeking means through him-asws before You-azwj, and Make it my salvation from the Hellfire and evil of this house (world), and offloading of my sins and the burdens, O Knower of the hidden and the secretive matters!
إِلَهِي إِنِّي امْتَطَيْتُ إِلَيْكَ الْمَهَانَةَ وَ ادَّرَعْتُ الْمَثَابَةَ لَأْياً بَعْدَ لَأْيٍ فِي غُدُوِّي وَ مَسَائِي إِلَى أَئِمَّتِي وَ أَوْلِيَائِي فَابْعَثْنِي فِي أُسْرَتِهِمْ وَ احْشُرْنِي فِي زُمْرَتِهِمْ يَوْمَ أُدْعَى مِنَ الْحَافِرَةِ لِحُضُورِ السَّاهِرَةِ وَ مَوْقِفِ الْحِسَابِ وَ الْآخِرَةِ
My God-azwj! I have taken on humility before You-azwj and sought Reward through perseverance after perseverance in my comings and goings to my Imams-asws and guardians! So, Resurrect me among their-asws family, and Gather me in their group on the Day I am called from the grave to the plains of awakening and the place of Reckoning and the Hereafter!’
ثُمَّ عَفَّرَ خَدَّيْهِ يَتَضَرَّعُ وَ يَبْكِي وَ قَالَ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَ الْإِكْرَامِ يَا ذَا الْحَوْلِ وَ الطَّوْلِ يَا ذَا الْقُوَّةِ وَ الْحَوْلِ نَجِّنِي مِنْ خَطَلِ الْعَمَلِ وَ الْقَوْلِ وَ آمِنِّي يَوْمَ الْفَزَعِ وَ الْهَوْلِ
Then he rubbed his cheeks in the ground while beseeching and crying, and said, ‘O Possessor of the Majesty and the Benevolence! O Possessor of the Might and the Forbearance! O Possessor of the Strength and the Might! Rescue me from mistakes of the actions and the words, and Secure me on the Day of panic and the horror!’
ثُمَّ جَلَسَ وَ هُوَ يُهَيْنِمُ بِمَا لَمْ أَفْهَمْهُ ثُمَّ قَامَ فَوَقَفَ عِنْدَ رَأْسِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع وَ قَالَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى مَنِ اتَّبَعَكَ وَ شَهِدَ الْمَعْرَكَةَ مَعَكَ وَ الْوَارِدِينَ مَصْرَعَكَ
Then he sat down and muttered with what I did not understand. Then he stood up by the head of Al-Husayn-asws and said: ‘The greeting be upon you-asws and upon the one who follows you-asws and those who witnessed the battle with you-asws, and those who arrived at your-asws place of martyrdom.
يَا لَيْتَنِي كُنْتُ مَعَكُمْ فَأَفُوزَ فَوْزاً عَظِيماً أَتَيْتُكَ زَائِراً يَا وَلِيَّ اللَّهِ وَ ابْنَ وَلِيِّهِ وَ وَصِيَّ نَبِيِّهِ وَ انْصَرَفْتُ مُوَدِّعاً غَيْرَ سَئِمٍ وَ لَا قَالٍ فَاجْعَلْنِي مِنْكَ بِبَالٍ
I wish I had been with you-asws, so I could have achieved a great victory. I have come to you-asws as a visitor, O guardian of Allah-azwj, son-asws of His-azwj guardian, and the successor-asws of His-azwj Prophet-saww! I depart, bidding farewell, neither weary nor disheartened, so make me of those who are mindful of you-asws!’
ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ إِلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ فَرَكِبَهَا وَ مَضَى وَ لَمْ أُكَلِّمْهُ وَ لَا كَلَّمَنِي.
Then he left to his mount, rode it, and went on his way, without speaking to me or me speaking to him’’.[223]
36- زِيَارَةٌ أُخْرَى أَوْرَدَهَا السَّيِّدُ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ وَ قَدْ قَدَّمْنَا رِوَايَتَهَا مِنْ كَامِلِ الزِّيَارَةِ بِالْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ الْجُعْفِيِّ وَ إِنَّمَا أَعَدْنَا هُنَا أَصْلَ الزِّيَارَةِ لِاخْتِلَافٍ يَسِيرٍ بَيْنَ أَلْفَاظِهِمَا وَ أَحَلْنَا فَضْلَهَا عَلَى مَا سَبَقَ قَالَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ الْجُعْفِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: فَإِذَا أَتَيْتَ قَبْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ ع قُمْتَ عَلَى الْبَابِ وَ قُلْتَ هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَاتِ فَإِنَّ لَكَ بِكُلٍّ مِنْهُنَّ كِفْلًا مِنْ رَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ
Another Ziyarat referred to by the Seyyid, may Allah-azwj Mercy him and we have preceded its report from ‘Kamil Al Ziyaraat’ by the chain from Al Mufazzal, from Jabir Al Jufy, and rather we are repeating it over here the original Ziyarat due to the small difference between their wording and we attribute its merit over what has preceded. He said from Jabir Al Jufay,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘When you come to the grave of Al-Husayn-asws, stand at the door and say these words, for you would be a portion of Mercy of Allah-azwj with each of these’.
قَالَ قُلْتُ وَ مَا هُنَّ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ
He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘And what are these? May I be sacrificed for you-asws!’
قَالَ تَقُولُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ آدَمَ صَفْوَةِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ نُوحٍ نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ مُوسَى كَلِيمِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ عِيسَى رُوحِ اللَّهِ
He-asws said: ‘You should say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Adam-as elite of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Noah-as Prophet-as of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Ibrahim-as friend of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Musa-as converser with Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Isa-as Spirit of Allah-azwj!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ مُحَمَّدٍ سَيِّدِ رُسُلِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ خَيْرِ الْوَصِيِّينَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ الْحَسَنِ الرَّضِيِّ الطَّاهِرِ الرَّاضِي الْمَرْضِيِّ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الصِّدِّيقُ الْأَكْبَرُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الْوَصِيُّ الْبَرُّ التَّقِيُّ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى الْأَرْوَاحِ الَّتِي حَلَّتْ بِفِنَائِكَ وَ أَنَاخَتْ بِرَحْلِكَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى الْمَلَائِكَةِ الْحَافِّينَ بِكَ
The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Amir Al-Momineen-asws and best of the successors-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Al-Hassan-asws the contented, the pure, and the well-pleasing! The greeting be upon you-asws O the greatest truthful! The greeting be upon you-asws O the successor-asws, the righteous, the pious! The greeting be upon you-asws and upon the souls which are resident in your-asws courtyard, and have rested their mounts! The greeting be upon you-asws and upon the Angels surrounding you-asws!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ قَدْ أَقَمْتَ الصَّلَاةَ وَ آتَيْتَ الزَّكَاةَ وَ أَمَرْتَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَ نَهَيْتَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَ جَاهَدْتَ الْمُلْحِدِينَ وَ عَبَدْتَ اللَّهَ مُخْلِصاً حَتَّى أَتَاكَ الْيَقِينُ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
I testify you-asws have established the Salat and gave the Zakat, and instructed with the good and forbade from the evil, and fought the atheists and worshipped Allah-azwj sincerely until the certainty (death) came to you-asws! The greeting be upon you-asws, and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!’
ثُمَّ تَمْشِي إِلَيْهِ فَلَكَ بِكُلِّ قَدَمٍ تَرْفَعُهَا أَوْ تَضَعُهَا كَثَوَابِ الْمُتَشَحِّطِ بِدَمِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى فَإِذَا مَشَيْتَ وَ وَقَفْتَ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ فَاسْتَلِمْهُ بِيَدِكَ وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حُجَّةَ اللَّهِ فِي أَرْضِهِ
Then walk to him-asws. For you, with every footstep you raise or place would be like Rewards of the ones rolling in his blood in the way of Allah-azwj the Exalted. When you have walked and paused at the grave, touch it with your hand and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O Divine Authority of Allah-azwj in His-azwj earth!’
ثُمَّ امْضِ إِلَى صَلَاتِكَ فَلَكَ بِكُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ تَرْكَعُهَا عِنْدَهُ كَثَوَابِ مَنْ حَجَّ أَلْفَ حَجَّةٍ وَ اعْتَمَرَ أَلْفَ عُمْرَةٍ وَ أَعْتَقَ أَلْفَ رَقَبَةٍ وَ كَمَنْ وَقَفَ أَلْفَ مَرَّةٍ مَعَ نَبِيٍّ مُرْسَلٍ إِلَى آخِرِ مَا مَرَّ مِنَ الْخَبَرِ.
Then continue to your Salat. For you, with each unit you perform in his-asws presence, would be like Rewards of the one who performed a thousand Hajj and performed a thousand Umrah, and liberated a thousand necks, and like the one who paused a thousand times with a Sent Prophet-as’ – up to end of what has passed, from the Hadeeth’’.[224]
ثُمَّ قَالَ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ وَ يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلْإِنْسَانِ كُلَّمَا زَارَ الْحُسَيْنَ ع وَ أَرَادَ الْخُرُوجَ مِنْ عِنْدِهِ أَنْ يَنْكَبَّ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ يُقَبِّلَهُ وَ يَقُولَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا مَوْلَايَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حُجَّةَ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا صَفْوَةَ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا خَالِصَةَ اللَّهِ
Then he, may Allah-azwj Mercy him, said, ‘And it is recommended for the person, every time he visits Al-Husayn-asws and intends to exit from his-asws presence, that he devotes upon the grave and kisses it and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O my master! The greeting be upon you-asws O Divine Authority of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O elite of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O pure one of Allah-azwj!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا قَتِيلَ الظَّمَإِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا غَرِيبَ الْغُرَبَاءِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ سَلَامَ مُوَدِّعٍ لَا سَئِمٍ وَ لَا قَالٍ فَإِنْ أَمْضِ فَلَا عَنْ مَلَالَةٍ وَ إِنْ أُقِمْ فَلَا عَنْ سُوءِ ظَنٍّ بِمَا وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الصَّابِرِينَ
The greeting be upon you-asws O one killed thirsty! The greeting be upon you-asws O the most estranged of the estranged ones! The greeting be upon you-asws, a farewell greeting, neither weary nor disheartened. If I depart, it is not out of boredom, and if I remain, it is not out of ill opinion regarding what Allah-azwj has Promised to the patient ones!
لَا جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ آخِرَ الْعَهْدِ مِنِّي لِزِيَارَتِكَ وَ رَزَقَنِيَ اللَّهُ الْعَوْدَ إِلَى مَشْهَدِكَ وَ الْمُقَامَ بِفِنَائِكَ وَ الْقِيَامَ فِي حَرَمِكَ وَ إِيَّاهُ أَسْأَلُ أَنْ يُسْعِدَنِي بِكُمْ وَ يَجْعَلَنِي مَعَكُمْ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ.
May Allah-azwj not Make this the last of my visits to you, and may Allah-azwj Grant me the ability to return to your-asws sacred site and stand in your-asws presence, and be in your-asws sanctuary! It is Him I ask to Make me fortunate through you-asws and Make me to be with you-asws in this world and the Hereafter!’’[225]
37- زِيَارَةٌ أُخْرَى رَوَاهَا الْكَفْعَمِيُّ فِي الْبَلَدِ الْأَمِينِ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع قَالَ: إِذَا وَصَلْتَ إِلَى الْفُرَاتِ فَاغْتَسِلْ وَ الْبَسْ أَنْظَفَ ثَوْبٍ تَقْدِرُ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ صِرْ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ حَافِياً وَ عَلَيْكَ السَّكِينَةُ وَ الْوَقَارُ وَ قِفْ بِالْبَابِ وَ كَبِّرْ أَرْبَعاً وَ ثَلَاثِينَ تَكْبِيرَةً وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ آدَمَ فِطْرَةِ اللَّهِ
Another Ziyarat reported by Al-Kaf’amy in ‘Al Balad Al Ameen’, from Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘When you arrive at the Euphrates, bathe and wear your cleanest of clothes you are able upon. Then come to the grave bare-footed, and upon you should be the calmness and the dignity, and pause at the door and exclaim thirty-four Takbeer and said, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Adam-as nature of Allah-azwj!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ نُوحٍ صَفْوَةِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ مُوسَى كَلِيمِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ عِيسَى رُوحِ اللَّهِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَارِثَ مُحَمَّدٍ حَبِيبِ اللَّهِ
The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Noah-as elite of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Ibrahim-as friend of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Musa-as converser with Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Isa-as Spirit of Allah-azwj! The greeting be upon you-asws O inheritor of Muhammad-saww Beloved of Allah-azwj!
السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حُسَيْنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ الرَّضِيَّ الزَّكِيَّ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الْبَرُّ التَّقِيُّ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الصِّدِّيقُ الشَّهِيدُ السَّلَامُ عَلَى مَلَائِكَةِ اللَّهِ الْمُقَرَّبِينَ الَّذِينَ هُمْ بِكَ مُحْدِقُونَ
The greeting be upon you-asws O Husayn Bin Ali-asws the contented, the pure! The greeting be upon you-asws O the righteous, the pious! The greeting be upon you-asws O the truthful, the martyr! The greeting be upon the Angels of Proximity of Allah-azwj, those who are gazing to you-asws!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَقَمْتَ الصَّلَاةَ وَ آتَيْتَ الزَّكَاةَ وَ أَمَرْتَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَ نَهَيْتَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَ عَبَدْتَ اللَّهَ حَتَّى أَتَاكَ الْيَقِينُ وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
I testify you-asws had established the Salat and gave the Zakat, and instructed with the good and forbade from the evil, and worshipped Allah-azwj until the certainty (death) came to you-asws, and the greeting be upon you-asws and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!’
ثُمَّ الْتَزِمِ الْقَبْرَ وَ قُلِ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حُجَّةَ اللَّهِ فِي أَرْضِهِ وَ سَمَائِهِ
Then adhere with the grave and say, ‘The greeting be upon you-asws O Divine Authority of Allah-azwj in His-azwj earth and His-azwj sky!’
ثُمَّ انْكَبَّ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ الْحُسَيْنِ اشْفِ صَدْرَ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ اطْلُبْ بِثَأْرِهِ اللَّهُمَّ انْتَقِمْ مِمَّنْ قَتَلَهُ وَ أَعَانَ عَلَيْهِ
Then devote upon the grave and say, ‘O Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of Al-Husayn-asws! Heal the chest of Al-Husayn-asws and Seek his-asws retaliation! O Allah-azwj! Avenge from the ones who killed him-asws and assisted against him-asws!
ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ رَأْسَكَ وَ يَدَيْكَ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ قُلْ سَلَامُ اللَّهِ وَ مَلَائِكَتِهِ وَ أَنْبِيَائِهِ وَ رُسُلِهِ وَ الصَّالِحِينَ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ وَ جَمِيعِ خَلْقِهِ وَ رَحْمَتُهُ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ وَ عَلَيْكَ يَا مَوْلَايَ الشَّهِيدُ الْمَظْلُومُ
Then raise your head and your hands towards the sky and say, ‘Greeting of Allah-azwj, and His-azwj Angels, and His-azwj Prophets-as, and His-azwj Messengers-as, and the righteous ones from His-azwj servants, and entirety of His-azwj creatures, and His-azwj Mercy and His-azwj Blessings be upon Muhammad-saww and People-asws of his-saww Household, and upon you-asws O my master, the martyr, the oppressed!
لَعَنَ اللَّهُ قَاتِلَكَ وَ خَاذِلَكَ بَرِئْتُ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مِنْهُمْ وَ مِنْ فِعَالِهِمْ وَ مِمَّنْ شَايَعَ وَ رَضِيَ بِهِ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُمْ كُفَّارٌ مُشْرِكُونَ وَ اللَّهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ بِرَاءٌ مِنْهُمْ.
May Allah-azwj Curse your-asws killers, and ones who abandoned you-asws! I disavow to Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic from them and from their actions, and from the ones who accompanied them and were pleased with it, and I testify they are Kafirs, Polytheists, and Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww are disavowed from them!’’[226]
