Reward of reciting a coupled regarding Imam Hussain (a.s), crying, making others cry or making a crying face

1. Imam Jafar as-Sadiq (a.s) said, "O abu Haroon! Recite a couplet regarding Imam Hussain (a.s)." He recited a few lines. Imam said, "Recite them as they should be recited, i.e. recite them with grief." Then he recited: "When you pass by the grave of Hussain (a.s), say to his pure bones...". Imam cried a lot and said, "Continue reciting." He recited one more poem. Imam cried even more and wails were heard from behind the curtain also. When he finished reciting, Imam said, "O Abu Haroon! one who cried after reciting the poems of Imam Hussain (a.s) and makes ten people cry, Allah would make everyone enter paradise. One who cries after reciting the poem of of Imam Hussain (a.s) and makes five people cry, everyone would get paradise. One who recites the Poem of Imam Hussain (a.s) and makes a person cry, paradise would be made obligatory for both of them. If discussion of Imam Hussain (a.s) is held in front of a person and a tear equal to the wing of a fly comes out of his eyes, his reward is with the Almighty Allah and Allah wont be satisfied without giving him paradise."

2. Imam Jafar Sadiq (a.s) told Abu Umara, "Recite a poem regarding Imam Hussain (a.s)." He recited the poem and Imam (a.s) cried. He went on reciting and Imam (a.s) cried continuously till the wails started coming out of his house. Then Imam (a.s) said, "O Abu Umara! One who recites a poem regarding Imam Hussain (a.s) and makes fifty persons cry, Paradise belongs to him. One who recites a poem and forty persons cry, Paradise is for them. If thirty persons cry Paradise is for them also. One who recites a poem and twenty persons cry they too will get Paradise. One who makes ten people cry after reciting a poem of Imam Hussain (a.s) they too will get Paradise. One who makes a person cry after reciting a poem of Imam Hussain (a.s) and cries alone he too will get Paradise. One who makes just a crying face after reciting the poem regarding Imam Hussain (a.s) he too will get Paradise. 

3. Imam Jafar as-Sadiq (a.s), "One who recites a couplet regarding Imam Hussain (a.s) cries and makes ten persons cry they will get paradise. One who recites a couplet regarding Imam Hussain (a.s) cries and makes nine persons cry they will get paradise." He went on until he said, "One who recites a couplet regarding Imam Hussain (a.s) cries or makes a crying face, he would get paradise."

On the 10th day of Muharram, known as the day of ‘Aashura, in the year 61 A.H. when Imam Abu ‘Abdillahil Hussein (as) came into the tent to bid farewell to his family members, he held the hand of his sick son, Ali ibn al-Hussein (as) and pressed it against his chest. He (as) then said,

Tile of Haram-e-Abbas (a.s)

I got this Tile from the Haram of Maula Abbas (a.s). Its simply amazing how an ordinary thing becomes so priceless when linked with the Ahlul Bayt (a.s).

Hussain is the foundation of La-ilah!

Ruler is Hussain,

Emperor is Hussain,

Faith is Hussain,

guardian of faith is Hussain .

Offered his head, and not the hand to Yazid.

Indeed, Hussain is the foundation of La-ilah!

(Translation of Khawaja Ghareeb Nawaz’s verses on the status of Hazrat Imam Hussain (AS))

1. Imam Jafar as-Sadiq (a.s) narrates from his predecessors that Imam Hasan (a.s) asked the Holy Prophet (saw), "O Father! what is the reward of your ziyarat?" He (saw) replied, "One who performs my ziyarat, your father and your brother, it is obligatory for me to do his ziyarat on the day of judgment and free him from sins."

2. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s) narrates from his predecessors that Imam Hussain (a.s) asked the Holy Prophet (saw) "O father! what is the reward of a person who does our ziyarat?" He (saw) replied, "One who does my ziyarat, your father and your brother, it is obligatory for me to visit him on the day of judgment, free him from sins and make him enter paradise."

Reward of mourning over the martydom of Imam Hussain (a.s) and the calamities of Ahlul Bayt (a.s)

Reward of mourning over the martydom of Imam Hussain (a.s)

and the calamities of Ahlul Bayt (a.s)

1. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s) narrates that Imam Zainul Abideen (a.s) said, "One who cries for Imam Hussain (a.s) and his tears flow from the eyes and fall on his cheeks, Almighty Allah would give him a place on a high apartment where he would live in peace for years. One who cries on the troubles given to us by our enemies in this world and his tears fall on his cheeks, the Almighty Allah would grant him a place in Maqam-e-Side. If a believer bears difficulties and becomes aggrieved for the calamities which we have suffered, his eyes becomes wet, tears flow on his cheeks, Allah would remove sufferings from his face and keep him safe from the diffculties and chastisements on the day of judgment."
