3. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to us by Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from Ahmad b. Muhammad b. Ghiyath from Ahmad b. Muhammad b. Abi Nasr al-Bazanti who said: It is narrated that a letter of Imam Ridha contained the following text: “Convey to my Shias that the reward of my Ziyarat equals to one thousand Hajjs.” The narrator asked Imam Jawad , “Is it equal to a thousand Hajjs?” Imam replied, “Yes, one who performs his Ziyarat knowing his right this act is equal to a million Hajjs.” Imam Ja’far Sadiq says that one who performs the Ziyarat of any one of us will get the reward of the Ziyarat of Imam Husain .”
