Shaykh Abu-Ja’far al-Tusi in his book of al-Misbah narrates: "Muhammad ibn Isma’il ibn Buzaygh has reported on the authority of Salih ibn ‘Aqabah on the authority of his father on the authority of Imam [[Muhammad al-Baqir]] who said, “Whoever visits al-Hussain ibn Ali on the tenth of [[Muharram]] (the [[Ashura]] Day) and remains there weeping, will meet Almighty Allah on the day of meeting Him having the reward of two thousand times of going on hajj, two thousand times of going on umra, as well as the reward of one who has participated with the Holy Messenger of Allah and with the Holy Imams in two thousand campaigns.”
