How should we talk to Aba al-Fazl al-Abbas (‘a)?

All the eulogies about Karbala are about Aba al-Fazl. Shall I show you a way of reading a eulogy, so that you will feel you are near the grave of Aba al-Fazl al-Abbas? Believe me! You read the eulogy and Abbas’s cries will fill the sky. Many have talked to him like this and gotten results. Talk very simply!

Say, “Abbas! Fix me or I’ll lose my reputation!” Because, Aba al-Fazl is very sensitive about reputation. He is a gentleman. He is a real man, very much so.

Do you know how you should ask for your requests from Aba al-Fazl? Someone said, “I went near Abbas’s grave. An Iraqi man had stuck his son’s head to the grave. He talked to the grave. Then he released his son’s head and said something to him. Again, he pressed his son’s head and said some things.

I brought someone and asked him, ‘What is he saying? He is not crying or anything, and he is talking very firmly.’ That person said, ‘Let me listen.’ Then he started crying. He said, ‘His son has a headache and the doctors have said that there is no hope. He is saying here, “O Aba al-Fazl, heal my son’s head.” Then he asks his son, “Are you better?” The son says, “No.” The father replies, “Wait. It’ll get better now. Aba al-Fazl fix his head. I have work to do. I have to go.”’” They are like this.

Say, “Abbas, I have promised to become a real person. Don’t let me lose my reputation!” Talk very simply! “Fix me or I’ll lose my reputation!”
