Abstract
There are some narratives told by Imam Reza and other Imams about the oblation of crying on the suffering experienced by Imam Hossein. There are some hadith which confirm that God bestows graces such as entering into paradise to those who cry or make others cry on Imam Hossein. There is ambiguity regarding the praise of crying on Imam and its relationship with God's knowledge which has made it problematic. This paper clarifies some justification on this ambiguity. The paper concludes that these hadith generally confirm the entrance into paradise as the reward for the crying on Imam Hossein. This point does not negate not only its conditionality with other issues such as condition, the presence of all elements but also this conditionality explicates the content of these hadith.
