Chapter 68: Visitors Of Imam Al-Husayn ('A) Will Be Able To Intercede For Others

Tradition 1: Imam As-Sadiq (‘a) said: On Judgment Day, Allah the blessed and exalted, shows His mercy to the visitor of the grave of Imam Al-Husayn ('a) before he does for those who are in Arafat. He fulfils their needs, forgives their sins and accepts their intercession. Then He attends to those who are in Arafat and honours them similarly.

Tradition 2: Imam As-Sadiq (‘a) said: On Judgment Day, a visitor of Imam Al-Husayn ('a) will be able to intercede for a hundred sinful persons destined to Hell.

Tradition 3: Same points as mentioned in a longer report - Chapter 44, Tradition 2.

Tradition 4: Imam Samq ('a) said: Every day and night Allah glances at the earth a hundred thousand times through which He forgives whomever He wants and punishes whomever He likes. Allah specially forgives the visitors of Imam Al-Husayn ('a), their family members and those for whom they will intercede on Judgment Day, regardless of who they may be, even if they be of those upon whom Hell is decreed.

I (the narrator) asked, “Even if Hell is decreed for them?”

Imam ('a) replied, “Yes, but they should not be Nasibi.”

Tradition 5: Imam As-Sadiq (‘a) said: On Judgment Day, an announcer will announce, 'Where are the Shia of Aali Muhammad ('a)?”

A group of people whose number cannot be counted except by the Almighty Allah, will stand up and separate from the people.

Then an announcer will announce, “Where are the visitors of the grave of Imam Al-Husayn ('a)?”

A large group of people will stand up. They will be told, “Take the hand of whoever you like and take him to Paradise with you. They will take whoever they like to Paradise to such an extent that a person will say to one of them, “O so and so! Don't you remember me? I stood up for you once as a mark of respect.”

So, the visitor will take him to Paradise without being stopped.
