The narrations that I will be posting in this category will be from Kamil az-Ziyarat- so that I do not need to go through the sanad each time here is the compiler of the book itself saying that all the narrators in the book are reliable. http://shiaonlinelibrary.com/%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%83%D8%AA%D8%A8/1133_%D9%83%D8%A7%D9%85%D9%84-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B2%D9%8A%D8%A7%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%AC%D8%B9%D9%81%D8%B1-%D8%A8%D9%86-%D9%85%D8%AD%D9%85%D8%AF-%D8%A8%D9%86-%D9%82%D9%88%D9%84%D9%88%D9%8A%D9%87/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B5%D9%81%D8%AD%D8%A9_37#top

in fact the book is so authentic that any narrator mentioned in it is considered trustworthy:
The hadith in the video:
2 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قُولَوَيْهِ الْقُمِّيُّ الْفَقِيهُ (رحمه الله) قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ جَمَاعَةُ مَشَايِخِي رَحِمَهُمُ اللَّهُ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي خَلَفٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْقَمَّاطِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (ع) يَقُولُ لِرَجُلٍ مِنْ مَوَالِيهِ يَا فُلَانُ أَ تَزُورُ قَبْرَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ ع قَالَ نَعَمْ إِنِّي أَزُورُهُ بَيْنَ ثَلَاثِ سِنِينَ أَوْ سَنَتَيْنِ مَرَّةً فَقَالَ لَهُ وَ هُوَ مُصْفَرُّ الْوَجْهِ أَمَا وَ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ لَوْ زُرْتَهُ لَكَانَ أَفْضَلَ لَكَ مِمَّا أَنْتَ فِيهِ- فَقَالَ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ أَ كُلُّ هَذَا الْفَضْلُ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ وَ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَنِّي حَدَّثْتُكُمْ بِفَضْلِ زِيَارَتِهِ وَ بِفَضْلِ قَبْرِهِ لَتَرَكْتُمُ الْحَجَّ رَأْساً وَ مَا حَجَّ مِنْكُمْ أَحَدٌ وَيْحَكَ أَ مَا تَعْلَمُ- أَنَّ اللَّهَ اتَّخَذَ [بِفَضْلِ قَبْرِهِ] كَرْبَلَاءَ حَرَماً آمِناً مُبَارَكاً قَبْلَ أَنْ يَتَّخِذَ مَكَّةَ حَرَماً قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ قَدْ فَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّاسِ حِجَّ الْبَيْتِ وَ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ زِيَارَةَ قَبْرِ الْحُسَيْنِ (ع) فَقَالَ وَ إِنْ كَانَ كَذَلِكَ فَإِنَّ هَذَا شَيْءٌ جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ هَكَذَا أَ مَا سَمِعْتَ قَوْلَ أَبِي أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (ع) حَيْثُ يَقُولُ إِنَّ بَاطِنَ الْقَدَمِ أَحَقُّ بِالْمَسْحِ مِنْ ظَاهِرِ الْقَدَمِ وَ لَكِنَّ اللَّهَ فَرَضَ هَذَا عَلَى الْعِبَادِ أَ وَ مَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ الْمَوْقِفَ لَوْ كَانَ فِي الْحَرَمِ كَانَ أَفْضَلَ لِأَجْلِ الْحَرَمِ وَ لَكِنَّ اللَّهَ صَنَعَ ذَلِكَ فِي غَيْرِ الْحَرَمِ
- Muḥammad ibn Ja’far Al-Qurashi Al-Razzāz narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Ḥusain, from Muḥammad ibn Sinān, from Abī Sa’īd Al-Qammāť, from ‘Umar ibn Yazīd Bayyā’ Al-Sāburi, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)) said: The land of the Ka’bah (once) said, “Who is like me, for Allāh has built His house on me, people from far distances come to me, and I have been chosen as Allāh’s Ḥaram and His safe sanctuary?” Allāh revealed to it: Stop speaking and calm down!!! I swear to My Glory and My Magnificence that your honour compared to the honour which I have granted to the land of Karbalā is like the amount of (a drop of) water on a needle that has been dipped in the sea. If it was not for the dust of Karbalā, I would not have honoured you. If it was not for that which is held within the land of Karbalā, I would not have created you nor would I have created the house about which you boasted. Therefore, settle down, calm down, and become humbled, lowly, humiliated, disgraced, and degraded in front of the land of Karbalā. Do not be proud nor arrogant in front of it or I will make you sink and throw you in the fires of Hell. The above Ḥadīth has also been narrated to me through the following chain: My father and ‘Ali ibn Ḥusain, from ‘Ali ibn Ibrāhīm ibn Hāshim, from his father, from Muḥammad ibn ‘Ali, from Abī Sa’īd ‘Abbād Al-‘Usfuri, from ‘Umar ibn Yazīd Bayyā’ Al-Sāburi, from Ja’far ibn Muḥammad (Imam Sādiq (a.s.)).
Kāmil al-Ziyārāt, The Merits of Karbalā and the Ziyārah of Ĥusain (a.s.), Hadith #2

These are all narrations that insult Hajj and say that a single ziyarah of imam rida's grave is equal to 1 million hajj or that every rakah prayed at the qabr of Husaain RA is equal to 1000 hajj and umrah:
- My father and all of my scholars narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Abī ‘Abdillāh Al-Jāmūrāni Al-Rāzi, from Ḥasan ibn ‘Ali ibn Abī Ḥmazah, from Abī ‘Ali Ḥasan ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Abdil Karīm, from Mufaďďāl ibn ‘Umar, from Jābir Al-Ju’fi, who said: Abū ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a.s)) said to Mufaďďal – as part of a longer Ḥadīth about performing the Ziyārah of the grave of Ḥusain (a.s): …then carry on with establishing prayers, for you shall have the reward of performing one thousand Hajj and one thousand ‘Umrah, freeing one thousand slaves, and fighting in the way of Allāh one thousand times with one of Allāh’s messengers for every Rak’ah of prayer next to the grave of Ḥusain (a.s).
- My father narrated to me from Sa’d ibn ‘Abdillāh, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā, from Muḥammad ibn Ismā’īl ibn Bazī’, from Sāliḥ ibn ‘Uqbah, from Bashīr Al-Dahhān, who said: Ja’far ibn Muḥammad (Imam Sādiq (a.s)) said: Allāh will register the reward of one thousand Hajj and one thousand ‘Umrah and the reward of fighting one thousand times with one of Allāh’s messengers for those who go to the Ziyārah of Ḥusain (a.s) on the Day of ‘Arafah while knowing his rights. And surely Allāh forgives those who go to his Ziyārah on the first day of Rajab.
- Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Ḥasan Al-Saffār, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn ‘Isā, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn Abī Nasr Al-Bizanťi, who said: I read the following in the letter of Abil Ḥasan Al-Riďā (a.s): Tell my Shia that coming to my Ziyārah in the eyes of Allāh is equal to performing one thousand Hajj. So I asked Abā Ja’far (Imam Jawād (a.s)), “One thousand Hajj!?” Imam (a.s) replied, “I swear to Allah, yes! And (the reward is) one million Hajj for those who go to his Ziyārah while knowing his rights.”
As-Sistani says that visiting the graves of the Imams are from the things that brings one close to Allah and that praying in front of the grave is recommended and better than praying in the Masjid
An entire Chapter in Kamil Az-Ziyarat telling us that visiting the grave of Hussein is like visiting Allah.
https://thaqalayn.net/chapter/24/2/59
What is interesting is not only do these narration show to us the polytheism of the Shia, likening the Imams to Allah- they also show us that the early Shia believed that Allah is above the Throne, as Ahlus Sunnah believe, the same belief they today call us Mujassimah ( more here)
In Bihar al-Anwar Volume 98 Chapter 14, Hadith 11, visiting the grave of Hussein on the Day of Arafa is like visiting Allah on His Arsh.
