Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from Muhammad ibn Isma‘il from al-Himyariy from al-Husayn ibn Muhammad al-Qummiy who has said the following: “Al-Rida’ (a.s.), has said, ‘Whoever visits my father in Baghdad is like one who has visited the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, and the grave of ’Amir al-Mu’minin. O Allah, I appeal before You to grant salawat (favors and compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause). Except, however, the Messenger of Allah and ’Amir al-Mu’minin have their own special merits.’”
