3. Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from ibn Faddal from Karram from ibn abu Ya’fur who has said the following: “I once said to abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘How is it that certain people take some soil from the gravesite of al-Husayn (a.s.), and benefit thereby, but others do not benefit thereby?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘No, by Allah, beside whom no one deserves worship, that is not the case. If one takes such soil with belief that Allah will benefit him thereby, He will certainly benefit him thereby.’”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
