Ziarat e imam Hussain on the day of Arfah (Zill-Ḥijjah)
Be it known to you that the traditions that are reported from the Ahl al-Bayt the Immaculate and infallible about the merits and advantages of visiting Imam al-Husayn (‘a) on the ‘Arafat Day are innumerable. Heading for filling the dear believers with desire for visiting Imam al-Husayn (‘a) on this day, we will hereinafter cite a few number of these traditions:
Bashir al-Dahhan, through a valid chain of authority, has reported that he, once, said to Imam al-Sadiq (‘a), “Some years, I miss the hajj season; therefore, I present myself at the tomb of al-Husayn (‘a).” The Imam (‘a) commented, “Well done, Bashir! Any faithful believer who comes to the tomb of al-Husayn, Allah’s blessings be upon him, with full recognition of his real position on a day other than the feast days, he shall be granted the reward of twenty times of admissible and acceptable hajj and twenty times of admissible and acceptable ‘umrah as well as the reward of participation in twenty campaigns with a commissioned prophet or a decent leader. Moreover, whoever comes to his (i.e. Imam al-Husayn) tomb on the ‘Arafat Day, with full recognition of his real position, will be granted the reward of one thousand times of admissible and acceptable hajj and one thousand times of admissible and acceptable ‘umrah as well as the reward of participating in one thousand campaigns with a commissioned prophet or a decent leader.”
Bashir said, “What shall I be awarded if I present myself at Mount ‘Arafat on that day? ”Somewhat angrily, the Imam (‘a) looked at him and said, “Bashir, if a faithful believer comes to the tomb of al-Husayn, Allah’s blessings be upon him, on the ‘Arafat Day, washes himself with the water of the River Euphrates, and then turns his face for visiting him, Almighty Allah shall record for him the reward of an entire hajj along with all of its rituals for every step he makes.”
The reporter then added, “Most probably, the Imam (‘a) added to this the reward of an entire ‘umrah (or campaign, according to another form of this report).” According to many validly reported traditions, on the ‘Arafat Day, Almighty Allah looks at the visitors of Imam al-Husayn’s tomb with mercy before He looks at those gathering on ‘Arafat Mountain.
The method of visiting Imam al-Husayn’s tomb on the ‘Arafat Day, according to the words of master scholars and chiefs of our sect and faith, is as follows:
If you intend to visit Imam al-Husayn (on the ‘Arafat Day), you may bathe yourself using water from the River Euphrates if possible and any other possibly obtained water. You may then put on the purest (and cleanest) of your clothes and walk towards the holy shrine with tranquility and solemnity. When you reach the gate of the holy shrine you may profess Almighty Allah’s most greatness:
اَللّٰهُ اَکْبَرُ
Then, say the following words:
اللّٰهُ اَکْبَرُ کَبِیْرًا وَّالْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ کَثِیْرًا وَّسُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ بُکْرَۃً وَّاَصِیْلًا وَالْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِیْ ھَدَانا لِھٰذَا وَمَا کُنَّا لِنَھْتَدِیَ لَوْلَآ اَنْ ھَدَانَا اللّٰهُ لَقَدْ جَآئَتْ رُسُلُ رَبِّنَا بِالْحَقِّ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلٰی رَسُوْلِ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلٰی اَمِیْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلٰی فَاطِمَۃَ الزَّھْرَآئِ سَیِّدَۃِ نِسَآئِ الْعَالَمِیْنَ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَی الْحَسَنِ وَالْحُسَیْنِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلٰی عَلِیِّ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلٰی مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلٰی جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلٰی مُوْسَی بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلٰی عَلِیِّ بْنِ مُوْسٰی اَلسَّلَامُ عَلٰی مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلٰی عَلِیِّ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلٰی الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَی الْخَلَفِ الصَّالِحِ الْمُنْتَظَرِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا اَبَا عَبْدِاللّٰهِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَابْنَ رَسُوْلِ اللّٰهِ عَبْدُکَ وَابْنُ عَبْدِکَ وَابْنُ اَمَتِکَ الْمُوَالِیْ لِوَلِیِّکَ الْمُعَادِیْ لِعَدُوِّکَ اسْتَجَارَ بِمَشْھَدِکَ وَتَقَرَّبَ اِلَی اللّٰهِ بِقَصْدِکَ الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰہِ الَّذِیْ ھَدَانِیْ لِوِلَایَتِکَ وَخَصَّنِیْ بِزِیَارَتِکَ، وَسَھَّلَ لِیْ قَصْدَکَ۔
You may then enter the shrine, stop next to the side of the Imam’s head, and say the following words:
اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا وَارِثَ اٰدَمَ صَفْوَۃِ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا وَارِثَ نُوْحٍ نَبِیِّ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا وَارِثَ اِبْرَاھِیْمَ خَلِیْلِ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا وَارِثَ مُوْسٰی کَلِیْمِ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا وَارِثَ عِیْسٰی رُوْحِ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا وَارِثَ مُحَمَّدٍ حَبِیْبِ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا وَارِثَ اَمِیْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا وَارِثَ فَاطِمَۃَ الزَّھْرَآئِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَابْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ الْمُصْطَفٰی اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَابْنَ عَلِیٍّ الْمُرْتَضٰی اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَابْنَ فَاطِمَۃَ الزَّھْرَآئِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَابْنَ خَدِیجَۃَ الْکُبْرٰی اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا ثَارَ اللّٰهِ وَابْنَ ثَارِہٖ وَالْوِتْرَ الْمَوْتُوْرَ اَشْھَدُ اَنَّکَ قَدْ اَقَمْتَ الصَّلوٰۃَ، وَاٰتَیْتَ الزَّکَوٰۃَ وَاَمَرْتَ بِالْمَعْرُوْفِ وَنَھَیْتَ عَنِ الْمُنْکَرِ وَاَطَعْتَ اللّٰهَ حَتّٰی اَتَاکَ الْیَقِیْنُ فَلَعَنَ اللّٰهُ اُمَّۃً قَتَلَتْکَ وَلَعَنَ اللّٰهُ اُمَّۃً ظَلَمَتْکَ وَلَعَنَ اللّهُ اُمَّۃً سَمِعَتْ بِذٰلِکَ فَرَضِیَتْ بِہٖ یَا مَوْلَایَ یَا اَبَا عَبْدِاللّٰهِ اُشْھِدُ اللّٰهَ وَمَلَآئِکَتَہٗ وَاَنْبِیَآئَہٗ وَرُسُلَہٗ اَنِّیْ بِکُمْ مُؤْمِنٌ وَبِاِیَابِکُمْ مُوْقِنٌ بِشَرَآئِعِ دِیْنِیْ وَخَوَاتِیْمِ عَمَلِیْ وَمُنْقَلَبِیْ اِلٰی رَبِّیْ فَصَلَوَاتُ اللّٰهِ عَلَیْکُمْ وَعَلٰی اَرْوَاحِکُمْ وَعَلٰی اَجْسَادِکُمْ وَعَلٰی شَاھِدِکُمْ وَعَلٰی غَآئِبِکُمْ وَظَاھِرِکُمْ وَبَاطِنِکُمْ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَابْنَ خَاتَمِ النَّبِیِّیْنَ وَابْنَ سَیِّدِ الْوَصِیِّیْنَ وَابْنَ اِمَامِ الْمُتَّقِیْنَ وَابْنَ قَآئِدِ الْغُرِّ الْمُحَجَّلِیْنَ اَلٰی جَنَّاتِ النَّعِیْمِ وَکَیْفَ لَا تَکُوْنُ کَذٰلِکَ وَاَنْتَ بَابُ الْھُدٰی وَ اِمَامُ التُّقٰی وَالْعُرْوَۃُ الْوُثْقٰی وَالْحُجَّۃُ عَلٰٓی اَھْلِ الدُّنْیَا وَخامِسُ اَصْحَابِ الْکِسَآئِ غَذَتْکَ یَدُ الرَّحْمَۃِ وَرَضَعْتَ مِنْ ثَدْیِ الْاِیْمَانِ وَرُبِّیْتَ فِیْ حِجْرِ الْاِسْلَامِ فَالنَّفْسُ غَیْرُ رَاضِیَۃٍ بِفِرَاقِکَ، وَلَا شَاکَّۃٍ فِیْ حَیَاتِکَ صَلَوَاتُ اللّٰهِ عَلَیْکَ وَعَلٰٓی اٰبَآئِکَ وَاَبْنَآئِکَ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا صَرِیْعَ الْعَبْرَۃِ السَّاکِبَۃِ وَقَرِیْنَ الْمُصِیْبَۃِ الرَّاتِبَۃِ،لَعَنَ اللّٰهُ اُمَّۃً اسْتَحَلَّتْ مِنْکَ الْمَحَارِمَ فَقُتِلْتَ صَلَّی اللهُ عَلَیْکَ مَقْھُوْرًا وَاَصْبَحَ رَسُوْلُ اللّٰهِ بِکَ مَوْتُوْرًا وَاَصْبَحَ کِتَابُ اللّٰهِ بِفَقْدِکَ مَھْجُوْرًا اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ وَعَلٰی جَدِّکَ وَاَبِیْکَ وَاُمِّکَ وَاَخِیْکَ وَعَلَی الْاَئِمَّۃِ مِنْۢ بَنِیْکَ وَعَلَی الْمُسْتَشْھَدِیْنَ مَعَکَ وَعَلَی الْمَلَآئِکَۃِ الْحَافِّیْنَ بِقَبْرِکَ، وَالشَّاھِدِیْنَ لِزُوَّارِکَ الْمُؤَمِّنِیْنَ بِالْقَبُوْلِ عَلٰی دُعَآئِ شِیْعَتِکَ، وَاَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ وَرَحْمَۃُ اللّٰهِ وَبَرَکَاتُہٗ بِاَبِیْ اَنْتَ وَاُمِّیْ یَابْنَ رَسُوْلِ اللّٰهِ بِاَبِیْ اَنْتَ وَاُمِّی یَا اَبَا عَبْدِاللّٰهِ لَقَدْ عَظُمَتِ الرَّزِیَّۃُ وَجَلَّتِ الْمُصِیْبَۃُ بِکَ عَلَیْنَا وَعَلٰی جَمِیْعِ اَھْلِ السَّمٰوَاتِ وَالْاَرْضِ فَلَعَنَ اللّٰهُ اُمَّۃً اَسْرَجَتْ وَاَلْجَمَتْ وَتَھَیَّاَتْ لِقِتَالِکَ یَا مَوْلَایَ یَا اَبَا عَبْدِاللّٰهِ قَصَدْتُ حَرَمَکَ وَاَتَیْتُ مَشْھَدَکَ اَسْاَلُ اللّٰهَ بِالشَّاْنِ الَّذِیْ لَکَ عِنْدَہُ وَبِالْمَحَلِّ الَّذِیْ لَکَ لَدَیْہِ اَنْ یُصَلِّیَ عَلٰی مُحَمَّدٍ وَّاٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَّاَنْ یَّجْعَلَنِیْ مَعَکُمْ فِی الدُّنْیَا وَالْاٰخِرَۃِ بِمَنِّہٖ وَجُوْدِہٖ وَکَرَمِہٖ
You may then kiss the tomb and offer a two-unit prayer in which you may recite Surah al-Hamd and any Surah you wish. Upon accomplishment, you may say the following supplicatory words:
اَللّٰھُمَّ اِنِّیْ صَلَّیْتُ وَرَکَعْتُ وَسَجَدْتُ لَکَ وَحْدَکَ لَا شَرِیْکَ لَکَ لِاَنَّ الصَّلوٰۃُ وَالرُّکُوْعَ وَالسُّجُوْدَ لَا تَکُوْنُ اِلاَّ لَکَ لِاَنَّکَ اَنْتَ اللّٰهُ لَآ اِلٰہَ اِلَّا اَنْتَ اَللّٰھُمَّ صَلِّ عَلٰی مُحَمَّدٍ وَّاٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَاَبْلِغْھُمْ عَنِّیْ اَفْضَلَ التَّحِیَّۃِ وَالسَّلَامِ وَارْدُدْ عَلَیَّ مِنْھُمُ التَّحِیَّۃَ وَالسَّلَامَ اَللّٰھُمَّ وَھَاتَانِ الرَّکْعَتَانِ ھَدِیَّۃٌ مِنِّیْٓ اِلٰی مَوْلَایَ وَسَیِّدِیْ وَ اِمَامِیَ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ عَلَیْھِمَا اَلسَّلَامُ اَللّٰھُمَّ صَلِّ عَلٰی مُحَمَّدٍ وَّاٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَّتَقَبَّلْ ذٰلِکَ مِنِّیْ وَاجْزِنِیْ عَلٰی ذٰلِکَ اَفْضَلَ اَمَلِیْ وَرَجَآئِیْ فِیْکَ وَفِی وَلِیِّکَ یَآ اَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِیْنَ۔
Translation:
Allah is the Most Great of all. All praise be to Allah very much. Glory be to Allah in mornings and evenings. All praise be to Allah Who has guided us to this. We would not have been guided if Allah had not guided us. The messengers of our Lord have indeed come with the truth. Peace be upon the Messenger of Allah, peace of Allah be upon him and his Household. Peace be upon the Commander of the Faithful. Peace be upon F¡timah the luminous and the doyenne of all women of the world. Peace be upon al-Hasan and al-Husayn. Peace be upon `Al¢ the son of al-Husayn. Peace be upon Muammad the son of Ali. Peace be upon Jaffar the son of Muhammad. Peace be upon Musa the son of Jaffar. Peace be upon Ali the son of Musa. Peace be upon Muhammad the son of Ali. Peace be upon Ali the son of Muhammad. Peace be upon al-Hasan the son of Ali. Peace be upon the virtuous Successor and Awaited. Peace be upon you, O Abi-Abdull¡h. Peace be upon you, O son of Allah’s Messenger. I—the servant of you and the son of your servant and your bondwoman, who is loyal to those who are loyal to you and enemy of those who are your enemies— am seeking the shelter of your shrine and seeking nearness to Allah through directing to you. All praise be to Allah Who guided me to be loyal to you, Who conferred upon me with my visiting you, and Who made easy for me to direct to you.
You may then enter the shrine, stop next to the side of the Imam’s head, and say the following words:
Peace be upon you, O inheritor of Adam the chosen by Allah.0 Peace be upon you, O inheritor of Noah the prophet of Allah. Peace be upon you, O inheritor of Abraham the friend of Allah. Peace be upon you, O inheritor of Moses the spoken by Allah. Peace be upon you, O inheritor of Jesus the spirit of Allah. Peace be upon you, O inheritor of Muhammad the most beloved by Allah. Peace be upon you, O inheritor of the Commander of the Faithful. Peace be upon you, O inheritor of F¡timah the luminous. Peace be upon you, O son of Muhammad the well-chosen prophet. Peace be upon you, O son of Ali the well-pleased. Peace be upon you, O son of F¡timah the luminous. Peace be upon you, O son of Khadijah the grand lady. Peace be upon you, O vengeance of Allah and son of His vengeance and the unavenged sanctity. I bear witness that you performed the prayers, defrayed the poor-rates, enjoined the right, forbade the wrong, and obeyed Allah until death came upon you. May Allah curse the people who slew you. May Allah curse the people who wronged you. May Allah curse the people who were informed about that but they approved it. O my master! O Abi-Abdullah! I call Allah, His angels, His Prophets, and His Messengers to witness that I believe in you and in your Return and I have faith in the laws of my religion and in the sealing deeds of mine, and in my final return to my Lord. Allah’s blessings be upon you all, upon your souls, upon your bodies, upon the present and the absent (of your group), and upon the manifest and the hidden (of your affairs). Peace be upon you, O son of the Seal of Prophets, son of the chief of the Prophets’ successors, son of the leader of the pious, and son of the white-forehead, marked believers. How can that you be anything other than this while you are the door to the true guidance, the guide to piety, the firmest handle, the argument against the inhabitants of this world, and the fifth of the People of the Cloak. You were nourished by the hand of mercy, breast-fed by the bosom of faith, and brought up in the lap of Islam. So, my soul is definitely displeased by the way you left this world and it has no doubt that you are alive. Allah’s blessings be upon you, your ascendants, and your descendants. Peace be upon you, O object of the pouring tears and match of the astounding misfortune. May Allah curse the people who violated your sanctities and infringed the holiness of Islam. So, you—may Allah’s blessings be upon you—were killed overwhelmed, the Messenger of Allah, Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Household, became cut off because of loss of you, and the Book of Allah became deserted due to losing you. Peace be upon you, your grandfather, your father, your mother, your brother, the Imams from your descendants, those who were martyred with you, and the angels who are surrounding your tomb, witnessing for your visitors, and praying for the acceptance of the prayers of your adherents. Peace and Allah’s mercy and blessings be upon you. May my father and mother be ransoms for you, O son of Allah’s Messenger. May my father and mother be ransoms for you, O Abi-Abdullah. So unbearable is the misfortune and so horrendous is the calamity of you for us and for all the inhabitants of the heavens and the earth. May Allah curse the people who put saddles and reins on their animals and readied themselves for fighting against you. O my master! O Abi-Abdullah! I have directed to your sanctuary and I have come to your shrine asking Almighty Allah in the name of the standing that you enjoy with Him and in the name of the position that you occupy with him to send blessings upon Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad and to include me with your group in this world and in the Hereafter, out of His favor, magnanimity, and generosity.
You may then kiss the tomb and offer a two-unit prayer in which you may recite any Surah you wish. Upon accomplishment, you may say the following supplicatory words:
O Allah, I have offered a prayer, genuflected, and prostrated myself for Your sake purely without setting any partner with You, since all prayers, genuflections, and prostrations suit none except You. Because You are Allah; there in no god save You. O Allah, (please) send blessings upon Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad, convey to them my best greetings and compliments, and convey to me their replies to my greetings and compliments. O Allah, these two units of prayer are present from me to my master, chief, and leader, al-Husayn the son of `Al¢, peace be upon both of them. O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad and accept that from me and reward me for it in the best rewarding that I anticipate and hope from You and from Your saint. O most merciful of all those who show mercy!
You may then turn to the side of the Imam’s feet and visit Ali ibn al-Husayn (as) whose head is at the side of Imam al-Husayn’s feet, and say these words:
اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَابْنَ رَسُوْلِ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَابْنَ نَبِیِّ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَابْنَ اَمِیْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَابْنَ الْحُسَیْنِ الشَّھِیْدِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ اَیُّھَا الشَّھِیْدُ ابْنُ الشَّھِیْدِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ اَیُّھَا الْمَظْلُوْمُ ابْنُ الْمَظْلُوْمِ لَعَنَ اللّٰهُ اُمَّۃً قَتَلَتْکَ وَلَعَنَ اللّٰهُ اُمَّۃً ظَلَمَتْکَ وَلَعَنَ اللّٰهُ ٲُمَّۃً سَمِعَتْ بِذٰلِکَ فَرَضِیَتْ بِہٖ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا مَوْلَایَ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکَ یَا وَلِیَّ اللّٰهِ وَابْنَ وَلِیِّہٖ لَقَدْ عَظُمَتِ الْمُصِیْبَۃُ وَجَلَّتِ الرَّزِیَّۃُ بِکَ عَلَیْنَا وَعَلٰی جَمِیْعِ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ، فَلَعَنَ اللّٰهُ اُمَّۃً قَتَلَتْکَ وَاَبْرَءُ اِلَی اللّٰهِ وَ اِلَیْکَ مِنْھُمْ فِی الدُّنْیَا وَالْاٰخِرَۃِ۔

Peace be upon you, O son of Allah’s Messenger. Peace be upon you, O son of Allah’s Prophet. Peace be upon you, O son of the Commander of the Faithful. Peace be upon you, O son of al-Husayn the martyr. Peace be upon you, O martyr and son of the martyr. Peace be upon you, O persecuted and son of the persecuted. May Allah curse the people who slew you. May Allah curse the people who wronged you. May Allah curse the people who were informed of that and they approved it. Peace be upon you, O my master. Peace be upon you, O Allah’s friend and son of His friend. Unbearable is the misfortune and so horrendous is the calamity of you for us and for all faithful believers. May Allah curse the people who slew you. I release myself in the presence of Allah and you from these people in this world and in the Hereafter.
You may then turn your face to the martyrs and visit them with the following words:
اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکُمْ یَا اَوْلِیَآئَ اللّٰهِ وَاَحِبَّآئَہٗ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکُمْ یَا اَصْفِیَآئَ اللّٰهِ وَاَوِدَّائَہٗ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکُمْ یَا اَنْصَارَ دِیْنِ اللّٰهِ وَاَنْصَارَ نَبِیِّہٖ وَاَنْصَارَ اَمِیْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِیْنَ وَاَنْصَارَ فَاطِمَۃَ سَیِّدَۃِ نِسَآئِ الْعَالَمِیْنَ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکُمْ یَا اَنْصَارَ اَبِیْ مُحَمَّدٍ الْحَسَنِ الْوَلِیِّ النَّاصِحِ اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکُمْ یَا اَنْصَارَ اَبِی عَبْدِاللّٰهِ الْحُسَیْنِ الشَّھِیْدِ الْمَظْلُوْمِ صَلَوَاتُ اللّٰهِ عَلَیْھِمْ اَجْمَعِیْنَ بِاَبِیْ اَنْتُمْ وَاُمِّیْ طِبْتُمْ وَطَابَتِ الْاَرْضُ الَّتِیْ فِیْھَا دُفِنْتُمْ وَفُزْتُمْ وَاللّٰهِ فَوْزًا عَظِیْمًا یَا لَیْتَنِیْ کُنْتُ مَعَکُمْ فَاَفُوْزَ مَعَکُمْ فِی الْجِنَانِ مَعَ الشُّھَدَآئِ وَالصَّالِحِیْنَ وَحَسُنَ اُوْلٓئِکَ رَفِیْقًا وَاَلسَّلَامُ عَلَیْکُمْ وَرَحْمَۃُ اللّٰهِ وَبَرَکَاتُہٗ۔

Peace be upon you, O Allah’s friends and beloved by him. Peace be upon you, O choices of Allah and His favorites. Peace be upon you, O supporters of Allah’s Religion, supporters of His Prophet, supporters of the Commander of the Faithful, and supporters of F¡timah the doyenne of the women of the world. Peace be upon you, O supporters of Abi-Muhammad al-hasan the sincere saint. Peace be upon you, O supporters of Abi-Abdullah al-Husayn the wronged martyr. Blessings of Allah be upon them all. May my father and mother be your ransoms. Pure are you, and pure is the soil in which you were buried. And, by Allah, great is your triumph. I wish I were with you so that I would have won with you in the gardens of Paradise with the martyrs and the righteous. Excellent is the companionship of these. Peace and Allah’s mercy and blessings be upon you all.
Explanation / Details::
You may then return to the side of Imam al-Husayn’s head and pray as frequently as possible for yourself, your family members, and your brethren-in-faith.
