Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books The Life of Imam Al-hasan Al-askari THE ZIYARAH OF IMAM AL-HASAN AL-ASKARI Translated by: Badr Shahin Shaykh al-Tusi has reported through a considerable series of narrators that Imam al-Hasan al-Askari (a.s.) said, “My grave will be in Surra-man-Ra’a (currently Samarra). It will be shelter for both the parties.” Explaining this saying, Shaykh al-Majlisi says that ‘both the parties’ means the Shi’ah and the Sunnah.
This means that the virtue of the Imam (a.s.) includes both his adherents and his enemies. Similarly, the holy tomb of Imam al-Kazim (a.s.) and Imam al-Jawad (a.s.) is shelter for the people of Baghdad.
Sayyid Ibn Tawus says that once you intend to visit the holy tomb of Imam al-Hasan al-Askari (a.s.), you may do the following in the beginning: Once you arrive in Samarra, you may wash yourself (traditionally, this bathing is called ‘the bath of Ziyarah), put on the cleanest of your clothes, walk with gravity and tranquility to the tomb, and when you reach at the gate of the holy mausoleum, you may say the following as a form of seeking permission to enter: أَأَدْخُلُ يَا نَبِيّ اللّهِ؟ A’ADKHULU YAA NABIYYAL-LAAH(I) O the Prophet of Allah; may I enter?
أَأَدْخُلُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ؟ A’ADKHULU YAA AMEERAL-MU`MINEEN(A) O the Commander of the Believers; may I enter? أَأَدْخُلُ يَا فَاطِمَةُ الزّهْرَاءُ سَيّدَةَ نِسَاءِ الْعَالَمِينَ؟ A’ADKHULU YAA FAAT’IMATAZ-ZAHRAA`U SAYYIDATA NISAA`IL-‘AALAMEEN(A) O Fatimah al-Zahraa, the Chiefess of the women of the world; may I enter? أَأَدْخُلُ يَا مَوْلايَ الْحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيّ؟ A’ADKHULU YAA MAWLAAYA AL-H’ASANUBNA ‘ALIYY(IN) O my master, al-Hasan ibn Ali; may I enter?
أَأَدْخُلُ يَا مَوْلايَ الْحُسَيْنَ بْنَ عَلِيّ؟ A’ADKHULU YAA MAWLAAYA AL-H’USAYNUBNA ‘ALIYY(IN) O my master, al-Husayn ibn Ali; may I enter? أَأَدْخُلُ يَا مَوْلايَ عَلِيّ بْنَ الْحُسَيْنِ؟ A’ADKHULU YAA MAWLAAYA ‘ALIYYUBNAL-H’USAYN(I) O my master, Ali ibn al-Husayn; may I enter? أَأَدْخُلُ يَا مَوْلايَ مُحَمّدَ بْنَ عَلِيّ؟ A’ADKHULU YAA MAWLAAYA MUH’AMMADUBNA ‘ALIYY(IN) O my master, Muhammad ibn Ali; may I enter?
أَأَدْخُلُ يَا مَوْلايَ جَعْفَرَ بْنَ مُحَمّدٍ؟ A’ADKHULU YAA MAWLAAYA JA’FARUBNA MUH’AMMAD(IN) O my master, Ja’far ibn Muhammad; may I enter? أَأَدْخُلُ يَا مَوْلايَ مُوسَى بْنَ جَعْفَرٍ؟ A’ADKHULU YAA MAWLAAYA MOOSABNA JA’FAR(IN) O my master, Musa ibn Ja’far; may I enter?
