My father, ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain and all of my scholars narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Mūsā ibn ‘Umar, and from Ayyūb ibn Nūḥ, from ‘Abdillāh ibn Mughīrah, from Abil Yasa’, who said: I heard a man ask Abā ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)), “When I go to (the Ziyārah of) the grave of Ḥusain (a.s.), can I pray toward Qiblah facing the grave?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “Move to the side a little.”
