The Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) called Ali, Fatima, Hasan and Husain and did not allow any of his wives to join when he explained who are involved in the Verse of Purification (Tatheer). Umm Salama who was the best of the wives after Khadija narrated that herself.

The Prophet (SAWA) clearly said that : Those mentioned in this verse (of Tatheer) are five: myself, Ali, Fatimah, Hasan and Husain. (Mustadrak Al- Saheehain, by Al-Haakim Al-Nisabori , volume 2, page 480.
The Arsh is The Knowledge which is carried by eight most humble servants of Allah; Noah, Ebraheem, Musa, Easa, Muhammad, Ali, Hasan and Husain. The eight who carry the Arsh (Knowdge) are mentioned in Quran, Sura 69, verse 17 and explained in authentic narration from Muhammad ibn Muslim from Imam Al-Baqir (AS) in Kanz Al-Fawaa'id quoted by Biharul Anwaar V.24, P. 90 and V.55, P.35 and in Tafseer Al-Borhani , V. 4 , P. 377.
Visiting the shrine of Imam Husain (AS) is like visiting the Arsh of Allah (Eight greatest servants of Allah who carry the Arsh).
This shows the great importance of visiting Imam Husain (AS).
What reward does the Almighty bestow upon Imam Hussain that is both befitting to his sufferings and reflects the justice, generosity, and mercy of God? Based on this, God has granted him many rewards, one of which is the honor and grandeur in this world to the extent that encourages and motivates all people to visit the sacred shrine of Imam Hussain and promises great rewards to the visitors. One of these divine promises is a hadith that Sheikh Mufid and others have repeatedly narrated. Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq said: "... And whoever visits the grave of Imam Hussain on the day of Ashura is as if meeting God on His throne." Of course, this is not strange, as we have similar narrations regarding visiting the Prophet's grave as well. Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq said: "Whoever visits the Messenger of God is as if meeting God on His throne." Imam Ridā said about the significance of visiting God: Since visiting Him is not possible, God has equated visiting the Prophet as visiting Himself. It should be noted that visiting Imam Hussain keeps alive the lofty goals of that noble Imam, which is indeed to safeguard the religion of God and the commandments of the Quran.
