11 وَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي (رحمه الله) عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ الثُّمَالِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَكَّلَ بِقَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) أَرْبَعَةَ آلَافِ مَلَكٍ شُعْثٌ غُبْرٌ [شُعْثاً غُبْراً يَبْكُونَهُ مِنْ طُلُوعِ الْفَجْرِ إِلَى زَوَالِ الشَّمْسِ فَإِذَا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ هَبَطَ أَرْبَعَةُ آلَافِ مَلَكٍ وَ صَعِدَ أَرْبَعَةُ آلَافِ مَلَكٍ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَبْكُونَهُ حَتَّى يَطْلُعَ الْفَجْرُ وَ ذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ
11. My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali ibn ‘Abdillāh ibn Mughīrah, from ‘Abbās ibn ‘Āmir, from Abān (ibn ‘Uthmān), from Abī Ḥamzah Al-Thumāli, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq ) said: Allāh has dedicated four thousand disheveled angels, who are covered with dust, to the grave of Ḥusain who cry over him (everyday) from sunrise to midday. At midday these four thousand angels are replaced with another four thousand angels who cry over him (from midday) to sunrise.
