Due to the sorrow of Imam separation one should weep, make others weep and make a sorrowful face It is the duty of every momin to weep in the separation of Imam-e-Zamana (a.s.) and help others in weeping for the same. We must mourn the difficulties that befall Imam (a.s.). It is a duty of the Shias in Occultation of Imam (a.s.) Imam Reza (a.s.) said, "One who remembers our calamites and weep on them or makes others weep, on the day of Judgement he shall be with us in our category. One who is reminded of our sorrows and weeps or makes other people weep, his eyes shall not weep on the day (Qiyamat) when all the eyes shall be weeping." (Muntakhabul Athar) In the same book Imam Sadiq (a.s.) is quoted, "One who remembers us or our mention is made before him and a tear equal to a mosquitoe's wing appears in his eyes, the Almighty Allah forgives his sins even if they are equal to the foam of the sea."
