Documentary Validation and Content Evaluation of the Ziyārat al-Wārith of Imam Ḥusayn (AS) in Shi‘a Books of Pilgrimages and Supplications

Abstract:
Connecting with fellow human beings is a divinely endowed instinct that, within the framework of the final religion (Islam), has been guided through the practice of pilgrimage to the divine saints. This meaningful act—by honoring human emotions and reinforcing epistemic foundations—yields elevated understanding and contributes to psychological well-being. Among such practices, the remarkable frequency of pilgrimage texts dedicated to Imam Ḥusayn (AS) reflects the significance and profound impact of visiting Sayyid al-Shuhadāʾ, thereby highlighting the need for a comprehensive and authoritative ziyārah.
The present library-based research addresses this need through the description and analysis of the narrative statements reporting Ziyārat al-Wārith, focusing on both documentary and content dimensions. In light of the importance of isnād and matn-based approaches in assessing the credibility of Islamic traditions, this study undertakes a dual examination—validating the chain of transmission and analyzing the content. Upon tracing the sources of Ziyārat al-Wārith—recognized as a prominent section of the absolute ziyārah of Imam Ḥusayn (AS) in Shi‘a books of ziyārāt and supplications—it was found that although the chains of transmission associated with this narration show weakness due to certain transmitters, the frequent mention of this well-known structure across various narrative sources with significant textual similarity supports the likelihood of its general authenticity. Furthermore, the deep integration of its content with Qur’anic teachings and Islamic traditions offers additional support in compensating for the aforementioned weaknesses and facilitates greater spiritual benefit for pilgrims from its constructive themes.
