3. ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain narrated to me from ‘Ali ibn Ibrāhīm, from his father, from Ibn Abī Najrān, from Yazīd ibn Isḥāq, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Aťiyyah, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) said (as part of a longer Ḥadīth): After saying Salām to the martyrs, come (back) to the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.) and face the grave and establish as many prayers as possible.

4. ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain narrated to me from ‘Ali ibn Ibrāhīm, from his father, from Ibn Faďďāl, from ‘Ali ibn ‘Uqbah, from ‘Ubaydillāh ibn ‘Ali Al-Ḥalabi, who said: I said to Abī ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)), “When we go to the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.), how should we establish prayers next to him?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “Stand behind the grave near his shoulders and then send blessing on the Prophet (s.a.a.w.) and send blessing on Ḥusain (a.s.).”

Muḥammad ibn Ja’far narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain, from Ayyūb ibn Nūḥ, and from others, from ‘Abdillāh ibn Mughīrah, from Abil Yasa’, who said: I heard a man ask Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) about performing Ghusl before going to (the Ziyārah of) the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.). Then he asked, “Can I pray toward Qiblah facing the grave?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “Move to the side a little.” The man asked, “Can I take some of the clay of the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.) and keep it to seek blessings from it?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “Yes – or he said – there is nothing wrong with doing so.”
