-'''Al-Zīyārah al-Jāmi'a al-Kabīra''' (Arabic:{{inlineArabic| الزیارة الجامعة الکبیرة}}) is among the most important and most perfect [[ziyarah texts]] [message recited upon the visit] for the [[Infallible Imams (a)]]. This ziyarah message was given by [[Imam al-Hadi (a)]] to a [[Shi'a]] upon his request. The content of this ziyarah message includes Shi'a beliefs on [[imamate]], Imams' (a) positions and Shi'a's duties about them. Al-Ziyarah al-Jami'a al-Kabira can be regarded as a course on knowing Imams (a) composed in the form of eloquent and beautiful phrases.

-A ziyarah text which does not belongs specifically to one of the [[Imam]]s (a) is called "al-Ziyarah al-Jami'a"; and since this ziyarah text is lengthier than other ziyarah texts, it have been given the attribute of "al-Kabira" [meaning "large"]. The text of this ziyarah is so that it can be recited for any of Imams (a) whether from distance [e.g. another city] or upon visiting their shrines.

 About this ziyarah, [[al-'Allama al-Majlisi]] said, "This ziyarah is the most complete ziyarah from distance or near [while visiting the shrine]".<ref>Al-Majlisi, ''Zad al-ma'ad'', p.301</ref> Also in his commentary on ''[[Man la yahduruh al-faqih]]'', [[Muhammad Taqi al-Majlisi|al-Majlisi al-Awwal]] says, "This ziyarah is the best and most complete ziyarah and I have always visited Imams (a) in their holy shrines." [[Muhaddith Nuri]] believes that Ibn Babawayh has summarized the text of this ziyarah in his narration and has omitted some parts which have not matched his beliefs.<ref>Nuri, ''Mustadrak al-wasa'il'', vol.11 p.170-171</ref>
 == Content ==
-Al-Ziyarah al-Jami'a al-Kabira is in fact a long and eloquent description of different perspectives of the concept of [[imamate]] which [[Shi'a]] believes that survival of religion depends on believing and adhering to this principle. Due to its content referring to Imams' (a) positions, [[Imam al-Hadi (a)]] said that the pilgrim should say "Allah Akbar" 100 times before reciting this ziyarah so that he does not fall into [[exaggeration]] about Imams (a).<ref>Al-Majlisi, ''Bihar al-anwar'', vol.8 p.666</ref>
