MERITS OF VISITING THE HOLY TOMB OF IMAM JA’FAR AL-SADIQ (‘A)

In al-Muqni’ah, Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq (‘a) is reported to have said, “Whoever visits me, will have all his sins forgiven and will not be inflicted with poverty or neediness.”

In Tahdhib al-Ahkam, Shaykh al-Tusi has narrated that Imam al-Hasan al-’Askari (‘a) said, “Whoever visits Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq and his father (‘a) will never suffer eye pain, will never be infected by a disease, and will not die because of an infection.”

However, too many are the narratives that convey the merits of visiting the tombs of the Holy Imams (‘a).
