Ziyara: Difference between revisions

In Islamic culture and all Muslims' tradition, ziyara has an important position which can be understood from [[hadith]]s received from [[Imams (a)]] about the promised rewards for Ziyara. Hadiths about recommendation of ziyara of [[the Prophet (s)]] are many and at the level of [[Tawatur]] [high frequency of narration] and agreed upon by both [[Shi'a]]s and [[Sunni]]s. Therefore, Muslims go to ziyara of the grave of the Prophet (s) since long ago.

Although ziyara of the graves of the righteous, especially the Prophet (s) is accepted by all Muslims, the concept of ziyara is more important in Shi'a culture. In addition to ziyara of the Prophet (s), ziyara of infallible Imams (a) is also a part of Shi'a rituals and is very important to them.
