Tradition 1: Imam As-Sadiq (‘a) said: Amir Al-Mu’minin ('a) looked at Imam Al-Husayn ('a) and said, “O tear of every believer!”

Imam Al-Husayn ('a) asked, “Father, am I the tear of every believer?”

Amir Al-Mu’minin ('a) replied, “Yes, my son,”

Tradition 2: Whenever Imam Al-Husayn ('a) was mentioned in the presence of Imam As-Sadiq (‘a) during the day, he would not be seen smiling until nightfall.

He ('a) used to say, “Imam Al-Husayn ('a) is the (cause of shedding) tear of every believer!”

Tradition 3: Imam As-Sadiq (‘a) said: Imam Al-Husayn (‘a) said, “I am the martyrs of tears. No believer remembers me without weeping.”

Traditions 4, 5 & 6: Same as no. 3.

Tradition 7: Imam As-Sadiq (‘a) said: Imam Al-Husayn ('a) said, “I am the martyrs of tears. I will be slain in anguish. Anyone who performs my Ziyarah in anguish would be eligible of being returned to his family with his heart pleased and satisfied.”
