Hadith's of Masomeen a.s Tear's for Hazrat Imam e Hussain a.s
Hazrat Imam Mohammad al-Baqir (a.s.) narrates from his father Imam Ali ibn Husain Zain-ul-Abedeen (a.s.) who said,
" If a believer weeps over the martyrdom of Imam Husain (a.s.) and tears flow from his eyes and fall on his cheeks, then Allah will make him reside in the palaces of Paradise where he shall abide for a lengthy
period of time. And if tears flow from a believer's eye (in sorrow) and falls upon his cheeks for the oppression and tyranny which has been inflicted upon us by our enemies, then Allah will present him a seat in Paradise. And the believer who undergoes sufferings on our behalf and tears flow on his cheeks, then Allah will remove sorrow from his face, and on the day of Qiyamah will keep him away from His wrath and safeguard him against the fire (of hell)."

Declared Abal Hasan Imam Ali ibn Musa al-Reza (a.s.)
" O Son of Shabeeb! Moharram is such a month that the arabs of the age of ignorance (pre Islamic) too respected its's sanctity and forbade oppression and bloodshed in it. But these people (the umayyads)
did not honour the sanctity of this month nor of their Prophet. In this month they killed the son of the Prophet and imprisoned the women-folk after looting and plundering their belongings, verily Allah will never ever forgive this crime of theirs."
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, pg 45)
Declared Abal Hasan Imam Ali ibn Musa al-Reza ( a.s.)
" O Son of Shabeeb! If you desire to earn the reward of thiose who were martyred along with Imam Husain (
a.s.), then whenever you remember him, say:
' I wish I had been with them, then I would have attained the Great Triumph.' "
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, Tradition 1, pg 46, as narrated to Rayyan ibn Shabeeb)
Declared Abal Hasan Imam Ali ibn Musa al-Reza ( a.s.)
" O Son of Shabeeb! If you desire
that you may abide in the palaces of Paradise in the company of the Holy Prophet ( s.a.w.) and his Progeny, then invoke Allah's curse upon the murderers of Imam Husain (
a.s.)"
" O Son of Shabeeb! If you desire to reside in the exalted status of Paradise alongwith us, then bemoan our sorrows and sufferings and rejoice in our happiness and remain attached to our love. For even if a person is attached to a stone in this world, Allah shall make him arise with it on the day of Qiyamah."
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, Tradition 1, pg 46, as narrated to Rayyan ibn Shabeeb)
Declared Abal Hasan Imam Ali ibn Musa al-Rez a (a.s.)
" Whoever remembers our sorrows, and weeps over the oppressions which have been inflicted upon us, then on the day of Qiyamah he shall be on our status alongwith us
. And the one who remembers our sorrows and thereby weeps and makes others weep, then his eyes shall not weep on the day when all eyes will be weeping. And the one who sits in such a gathering wherein are matters are discussed, his heart will not die on the day when all hearts shall perish."
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, Tradition 6, pg 49)
Declared Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq (
a.s.)
"
The murderers of both, Prophet Yahya (a.s.) as well as Imam Husain (a.s.) were illegitimate. The heavens have not wept, except on account of the martyrdom of both of them."
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, Tradition 18, pg 53)
Through successive chain of transmitters, the Noble Shaikh Ja'far bin Qawlawayh relates with his chain of authorities from Dawood Raqqi, who says that once I was in the presence of Imam Ja'far as Sadiq (
a.s.) when he asked for water to drink. When he drank it, grief overtook him and his eyes became full of tears. Then he said,
" O Dawood! May Allah's curse be upon the murderers of Imam Husain (a.s.). There is no servant (of Allah) who drinks water and remembers Husain and curses his enemies, except that Allah writes one lac virtues in his record, and forgives one lac sins of his, and elevates his position one lac times. It is as if he has freed one lac slaves, and on the day of Qiyamah he shall arise satiated."
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, Tradition 18, pg 53)
Through successive chain of transmitters, it is related from Dawood bin Farqad, who says that I was seated in the house of Imam Ja'far as Sadiq (a.s.) when he saw a pigeon (called Zaghabi) humming. Imam Turned towards me and asked,
" O Dawood! Do you know what this bird is saying?
"
I Replied in the negative. Imam (a.s.) said,
" It curses the murderers of Imam Husain (
a.s.), thus preserve such pigeons in your houses."
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, Tradition 20, pg 54)
Through chain of transmitters, Shaikh Abul Qasim Ja'far bin Qawlawayh relates through his chain of transmitters from Abu Ammarah, the Nawha recitor, that one day the name of Imam Husain (
a.s) was taken in the presence of Imam Ja'far as Sadiq ( a.s.) and he did not even smile till the night, and he would always say,
" Husain is the means of weeping for al believers."
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, Tradition 10, pg 50)
One day Imam Husain (a.s.) went to his brother Imam Hasan (a.s). When he looked at Imam Hasan (a.s), he started weeping. Imam Hasan (a.s) asked,
" O Aba Abdillah! Why do you weep?"
Imam Husain replied that he wept on account of that which would befall him.
Imam Hasan said,
" What shall befall me is the fatal poison, but none of my days will be similar to that of yours. Thirty thousand people, claiming to follow our Grandfather (the Prophet), will unite to attack you and shed your blood, and vioiate the sanctity and imprison your women-folk and children and plunder your tents. At that time the wrath (of Allah) will descend upon the Bani Umayyah and the heavens will rain blood, and all things will lament over you, to the extent that the wild-beasts of the forest and the fish of the rivers will also weep over your sufferings."
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, Tradition 39, pg 68)
Mohammad bin Muslim says that I have heard Imam Mohammad al-Baqir (a.s.) and Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq (a.s.) as saying that,
" Indeed the reward and compensation given by Allah for the martyrdom of Imam Husain (
a.s.) is that Imamate has been issued forth from his progeny, there is cure in (the earth) of his grave, the fulfillment of desires at the head of his grave, and from the time a pilgrim goes to visit his grave and returns back, no accounting will be taken (from him)."
Mohammad bin Muslim asked Imam Sadiq (
a.s.), "These rewards are (for the people) on account of Imam, but what about the reward for him." Imam ( a.s.) replied,
"
Indeed Almighty Allah has united him with the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) and Imam remains with the Prophet in his station and position."
Then he recited the following verses of the Qu'ran :
" And (as for) those who believe and their offspring follow them in faith, We will unite them with their offspring." (Toor:21)
Shaikh Sadooq related from the Holy Prophet ( s.a.w.) that he said, that Prophet Moosa bin Imran (a.s.) supplicated to Allah and said,
" O my Lord! My brother has died, thus forgive him."
It was revealed to him,
" O Moosa! If you desire, I shall forgive all the people from the beginning until the end, except the murderers of Husain (a.s.), for I shall surely take revenge from them."
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, Tradition 17, pg 53)
Declared Abal Hasan Imam Ali ibn Musa al-Reza (a.s.)
" O Son of Shabeeb! If you wish to mourn and lament over anyone, do so upon Husain bin Ali bin Abi Talib (a.s.) for he was beheaded like a lamb . Eighteen persons from among his family, who were unparalled in the earth, were also killed along with him. The heavens and the earth lamented the death of Husain. Four thousand angels descended from the heavens to aid him, but when they reached they saw that he had already been martyred. Thus,
now they all remain near his blessed grave with dishelved hair covered with dust until the rising of the Qaem (Imam al Mahdi). Then they will aid him and their slogan will be :
Vengeance for the blood of Husain."
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, pg 45)
Imam Ja'far as-Sadiq ( a.s.) once told Fuzayl that,
" Do you discuss our traditions when you sit in each others company?"
Fuzayl replied, " Yes we certainly do so, may I be your ransom!"
Imam (a.s.) said,
" Whoever remembers our traditions, or in whose presence we are discussed and tear equal to the size of a wing of a fly flow from his eyes
, Allah will forgive all his sins although they be equal in number to the foam (of the water) of the river."
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, Tradition 12, pg 50)
Mohammad bin Muslim says that I have heard Imam Mohammad al-Baqir (
a.s.) and Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq (a.s.) as saying that,
"
Indeed the reward and compensation given by Allah for the martyrdom of Imam Husain ( a.s.) is that Imamate has been issued forth from his progeny, there is cure in (the earth) of his grave, the fulfillment of desires at the head of his grave, and from the time a pilgrim goes to visit his grave and returns back, no accounting will be taken (from him)."
Mohammad bin Muslim asked Imam Sadiq (
a.s.), "These rewards are (for the people) on account of Imam, but what about the reward for him." Imam ( a.s.) replied,
"
Indeed Almighty Allah has united him with the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) and Imam remains with the Prophet in his station and position."
Then he recited the following verses of the Qu'ran :
" And (as for) those who believe and their offspring follow them in faith, We will unite them with their offspring." (Toor:21)
( Reference : Nafasul Mahmoom, English, Tradition 22, pg 55)
For those unable to go for the ziyarat of Imam Husain (a.s.) on the day of A'shura, Imam Baqir (a.s.) mentions the manner of performing A'zadari as follows:
"
He should mourn over Husain (a.s.), weep for him and instruct the members of the house to weep for him. He should establish the mourning ceremony in the house by exhibiting lamentions and grief over him; the people should meet one another in their homes and offer condolences and consolations to each other over the calamities which befell him.
"
