“And I have mentioned in this book of Ziaraat, and in book of Maqtal ul Hussein (asws) different Ziaraat, and I took in this book The most Authentic Ziarah in my view in terms of path/chain of narrators. And in it are messages and adequacy.”

أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ هَذَا سَابِقٌ لَكُمْ فِيمَا مَضَى وَجَارٍ لَكُمْ فِيمَا بَقِيَ
“I testify that was was said earlier is for you in the past and will continue to be for your in the future.”
“And because of You He sends down abundant rain. And because of You the sky is held from falling on the earth, except with His permission. And because of You He drives away sufferings and removes harm.”
“And the one who falls short regarding your rights is perished.”
5) Calling upon (asking) the Imam’s (as):
مُسْتَجِيرٌ بِكُمْ زَائِرٌ لَكُمْ لاَئِذٌ عَائِذٌ بِقُبُورِكُمْ مُسْتَشْفِعٌ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِكُمْ وَمُتَقَرِّبٌ بِكُمْ إِلَيْهِ وَمُقَدِّمُكُمْ أَمَامَ طَلِبَتِي وَحَوَائِجِي وَإِرَادَتِي
“I take shelter in your neighborhood. I make a visit to do homage and praise you. For me your resting abodes are sanctuaries. In the court of the Almighty you are my advocates. I seek His nearness through you. And submit to you(keep before you) the fulfillment of my wants and desire.”
يَا وَلِيَّ اللَّهِ إِنَّ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ذُنُوباً لاَ يَأْتِي عَلَيْهَا إِلاَّ رِضَاكُمْ فَبِحَقِّ مَنِ ائْتَمَنَكُمْ عَلَى سِرِّهِ وَاسْتَرْعَاكُمْ أَمْرَ خَلْقِهِ وَقَرَنَ طَاعَتَكُمْ بِطَاعَتِهِ لَمَّا اسْتَوْهَبْتُمْ ذُنُوبِي وَكُنْتُمْ شُفَعَائِي
“Ya Wali Allah! Indeed there are sins between God – the mighty and tremendous – and me, that cannot be removed except by your pleasure; so by the one who has trusted you with His secret, and has made you shepherds in the affairs of His creation; and has conformed obeying you with obeying Him; seek the pardon of my sins; and you are my interceders.”
