2. Muḥammad ibn Ja’far Al-Qurashi Al-Razzāz narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain, from Muḥammad ibn Ismā’īl ibn Bazī’, from Sāliḥ ibn ‘Uqbah, from Bashīr Al-Dahhān, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) said – as part of a longer Ḥadīth: Woe unto you, O Bashīr! Verily when a believer goes to (the Ziyārah of) the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.) while knowing his rights and performs Ghusl with the water of the Euphrates (River), with every step that he takes, an accepted and purified Hajj and ‘Umrah and (the reward of) fighting (in the way of Allāh) along with one of Allāh’s messengers or with a Just Imam will be registered for him.

3. My father narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Yaḥyā, and from Aḥmad ibn Idrīs, from ‘Amraki ibn ‘Ali, from Yaḥyā – who was the servant of Imam Abī Ja’far the Second (Imam Jawād (a.s.)), from Muḥammad ibn Sinān, from Bashīr Al-Dahhān, who said: I heard Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) in Ḥīrah (speaking) to a group of Shia surrounding him. He turned his face toward me and asked, “O Bashīr! Did you go for Hajj last year?” I replied, “May I sacrifice myself for you! No, but instead I spent the Day of ‘Arafah next to the Grave – referring to the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.).” Imam (a.s.) said, “O Bashīr! I swear to Allāh that you did not miss anything (from the blessings) that were in Makkah for those who were there.” I said, “May I sacrifice myself for you! Explain this to me, for (the blessing of being in) ‘Arafāt is (only available) in Makkah.” Imam (a.s.) replied: O Bashīr! Verily every time one of you raises his foot or places it down walking toward the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.) while knowing his rights, after performing Ghusl on the shores of the Euphrates (River), Allāh will give you (the reward of) one hundred accepted Hajj and one hundred purified ‘Umrah and (the reward of) fighting in a hundred battles with one of Allāh’s messengers against His enemies and the enemies of the Messenger.

4. Muḥammad ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Ja’far Al-Ḥimyari narrated to me from his father, from ‘Ali ibn Muḥammad ibn Sālim, from Muḥammad ibn Khālid, from ‘Abdillāh ibn Ḥammād Al-Basri, from ‘Abdillāh ibn ‘Abdil Raḥmān Al-Asam, from Hishām ibn Sālim, who said: A man came to Abī ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) and asked – as part of a longer Ḥadīth, “Should one go to the Ziyārah of your father (Ḥusain (a.s.))?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “Yes.” The man asked, “What is the reward for those who perform Ghusl with the water of the Euphrates (River) and then go to him (Ḥusain (a.s.))?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “If they perform Ghusl with the water of the Euphrates (River) with the intention of going to him, their sins will fall off of them (and they will become sinless) like the day their mothers gave birth to them.”

5. Abū Muḥammad Hārūn ibn Mūsā Al-Tal’ukbari narrated to me from Abī ‘Ali Muḥammad ibn Hammām ibn Suhayl, from Aḥmad ibn Mābundād, from Aḥmad ibn Mu’āfā Al-Tha’labi – who was from Ra`s Al-‘Ayn, from ‘Ali ibn Ja’far Al-Humāni, who said: I heard ‘Ali ibn Muḥammad Al-‘Askari (Imam Hādi (a.s.)) say: Those who leave their homes going toward the Ziyārah of Ḥusain (a.s.) and go to the Euphrates (River) and perform Ghusl with its water will be registered by Allāh as those who have achieved salvation. And once they say Salām to Abī ‘Abdillāh (Imam Ḥusain (a.s.)) they will be registered as the Winners. After they finish their prayers, an angel will come to them and say, “Verily the Messenger of Allāh (s.a.a.w.) conveys his Salām to you and tells you that your sins have been forgiven and that you should start again with good deeds.”

6. Ḥusain ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Āmir narrated to me from Aḥmad ibn ‘Alawiyyah Al-Isfahāni, from Ibrāhīm ibn Muḥammad Al-Thaqafi, who narrated that: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) used to say the following when he performed the Ghusl of Ziyārah: . O Allāh! Make this (Ghusl) as light, purification, and protection for me. And make it the prevention from every illness and disease and from every disability and injury. And purify my heart, my organs, my flesh, my blood, my hair, my skin, my brain, my bones, my nerves, and my mass with it. And make it my witness on the Day of Judgment: the day of my need, poverty, and destitution.

7. Muḥammad ibn Hammām ibn Suhayl Al-Iskāfi narrated to me from Ja’far ibn Muḥammad ibn Mālik Al-Fazāri, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Abdil Raḥmān Al-Rawāsi, from someone who narrated to him, from Bashīr Al-Dahhān, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) said: Those who go to (the Ziyārah of) Ḥusain ibn ‘Ali (a.s.) and perform Wuďū and Ghusl with the water of the Euphrates (River) do not raise their foot or place it down without Allāh registering a Hajj and an ‘Umrah for them.

8. My father and Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan both narrated to me from Ḥusain ibn Ḥasan ibn Abān, from Ḥusain ibn Sa’īd, from Faďālah ibn Ayyūb, from Yūsuf Al-Kunāsi, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) said: When you go to the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.), go to the part of the Euphrates (River) closest to his grave and perform Ghusl with its water.
