2 حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي وَ أَخِي وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ رَحِمَهُمُ اللَّهُ جَمِيعاً عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُوسَى عَنِ الْوَشَّاءِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الرِّضَا (ع) يَقُولُ إِنَّ لِكُلِّ إِمَامٍ عَهْداً فِي عُنُقِ أَوْلِيَائِهِ وَ شِيعَتِهِ وَ إِنَّ مِنْ تَمَامِ الْوَفَاءِ بِالْعَهْدِ وَ حُسْنِ الْأَدَاءِ زِيَارَةَ قُبُورِهِمْ فَمَنْ زَارَهُمْ رَغْبَةً فِي زِيَارَتِهِمْ وَ تَصْدِيقاً لِمَا رَغِبُوا فِيهِ كَانَ أَئِمَّتُهُمْ شُفَعَاءَهُمْ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْكُلَيْنِيُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِدْرِيسَ بِإِسْنَادِهِ مِثْلَهُ سَوَاءً

2. My father, my brother, ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain, and Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan all narrated to me from Aḥmad ibn Idrīs, from ‘Ubaydillāh ibn Mūsā, from Al-Washā, who said: I heard Imam Riďā say: There is a binding contract on every Shia and follower toward his Imam and the most perfect and beautiful way to fulfill this contract is to go to the Ziyārah of the grave of that Imam. On the Day of Judgment, the Imams will intercede for those who go to their Ziyārah while longing for it and believing in that which they have been ordered to believe. The above Ḥadīth has also been narrated to me through the following chain: Muḥammad ibn Ya’qūb Al-Kulayni, from Aḥmad ibn Idrīs, from ‘Ubaydillāh ibn Mūsā, from Al-Washā, from Imam Riďā .
