Abstract:
Shia culture possesses a very rich collection of supplications and pilgrimages, to the extent that no other Islamic sect benefits from such an amount of prayers and ziyarats; this indicates the spiritual and mystical face of Shiism, which strengthens religious sincerity and self-purification within the Shia community. Imam Hadi (AS), following other pure Imams (AS), especially Imam Zayn al-Abidin (AS) who engaged in teaching Shias and other Muslims through prayer, utilized the culture of pilgrimage and Ziyarat Namas as a means to teach the lofty teachings of the school of Ahl al-Bayt (AS) in addition to supplication. From that great figure, Ziyarat Namas such as Ziyarat Jamia Kabira, Ziyarat Amir al-Mu'minin Ali (AS), Ziyarat Hazrat Zahra (SA), and Ziyarat Ghadiriyah have reached us. Among the Ziyarat Namas narrated from him (AS), the Jamia Kabira and Ghadiriyah Ziyarat Namas hold greater importance in terms of volume and content. Therefore, in this article, a documentary and content analysis of the Ziyarat Nama Jamia Kabira is conducted, and the authenticity of its attribution to Imam Hadi (AS) is proven. Keywords: Imam Hadi (AS), political suppression, Ziyarat Jamia Kabira, Shia
Machine summary:
Sayyid Muhammad Taqi Naqavi (1378: 5), one of the commentators of this ziyarat-nama, writes about this: "Ziyarat Jamia Kabira is the dictation of Hazrat al-Hadi, Imam Ali al-Naqi (AS), and it is one of the most important ziyarats; in terms of eloquence, fluency, and inclusion of profound meanings and high themes that cause the polishing of the soul, it has no equal among all ziyarats and non-ziyarats ...
Of course, this statement does not indicate that the text of Ziyarat Jamia contradicts other narrations transmitted from the Infallibles (AS), but rather indicates the greatness of this ziyarat-nama in that which is scattered in other narrations has been collected, compiled, and also explained in this ziyarat-nama (Hosseini, ibid: 26), just as Allamah Majlisi (1275, appendix of Ziyarat Jamia) considered it to contain the summary of all hadiths regarding the virtues of the Imams (AS), and Sayyid Muhammad Sa'id Hakim, one of the contemporary scholars of Najaf Ashraf, has explicitly stated that the content of Ziyarat Jamia is present in numerous narrations from the Pure Imams (AS) (Qabbanchi, ibid: 1/ 33), and the contemporary thoughtful commentator, Javadi Amoli (1382, 1/ 87 – 88), has also explicitly stated that "The general lines of this ziyarat are consistent with the general lines of the teachings of the Holy Quran, which is the ultimate reference in reviewing narrations," and this correspondence with the Book and the Sunnah itself is another evidence for the authenticity of its text.
