الْمُتَهَجِّدُ، وَ غَيْرُهُ، رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُحْبَلَ لَهُ فَلْيُصَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ بَعْدَ الْجُمُعَةِ يُطِيلُ فِيهِمَا الرُّكُوعَ وَ السُّجُودَ وَ يَقُولُ بَعْدَهُمَا
(The book) ‘Al Mutahajjid’ and others – It is reported by Muhammad Bin Muslim,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘One who intends for a pregnancy to be for him (his wife), let him pray two Cycles Salat after the Friday (Salat), prolonging the Ruk’u and the Sajdah in these, and saying after these: –
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِمَا سَأَلَكَ بِهِ زَكَرِيَّا ع- إِذْ نَادَاكَ رَبِّ لا تَذَرْنِي فَرْداً وَ أَنْتَ خَيْرُ الْوارِثِينَ اللَّهُمَّ فَهَبْ لِي ذُرِّيَّةً طَيِّبَةً إِنَّكَ سَمِيعُ الدُّعاءِ
‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj with what Zakariya-as had asked his-as Lord-azwj when he-as called out: ‘Lord! Do not leave me as an individual, and you are the best of the inheritors [21:89]. O Allah-azwj! ‘My Lord! Grant me good offspring from You, surely You are the Hearer of the supplication’ [3:38]!
اللَّهُمَّ بِاسْمِكَ اسْتَحْلَلْتُهَا وَ فِي أَمَانَتِكَ أَخَذْتُهَا فَإِنْ قَضَيْتَ فِي رَحِمِهَا وَلَداً فَاجْعَلْهُ غُلَاماً مُبَارَكاً زَكِيّاً وَ لَا تَجْعَلْ لِلشَّيْطَانِ فِيهِ نَصِيباً وَ لَا شِرْكاً.
O Allah-azwj! I have made it lawful in Your-azwj Name, and in Your-azwj trust, I have taken her. If You-azwj Decide to Bless her with offspring, make him a Blessed, virtuous boy, and do not let Satan-la to have any share or association in him!’’[1]
و من (خواص القرآن): روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله) أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة غفر الله له بعدد من قرأها، و جعل له نورا يوم القيامة، و من كتبها و علقها على وسطه، و جامع زوجته حلالا، رزقه الله ولدا ذكرا قرة عين».
And from Khawas Al-Quran –
It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Chapter (89 Al-Fajr ‘الفجر’), Allah-azwj would Forgive him with the number of the ones who recite it, and would Make for him a Light on the Day of Judgement. And the one who recites it and attaches it (Amulet) upon his waist, and sleeps with his wife in a Permissible manner, Allah-azwj would Grant to him the sustenance of a male child, (who would be) a delight for his eyes’.[2]
و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من قرأها عند طلوع الفجر أمن من كل شيء إلى طلوع الفجر في اليوم الثاني، و من كتبها و علقها على وسطه ثم جامع زوجته يرزقها الله تعالى ولدا تقر به عينه و يفرح به».
And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who recites it (Chapter 89, Sura Al-Fajr ‘الفجر’) at dawn, would be safe from everything up to the dawn of the second day. And the one who writes it, and attaches it upon his waist, then sleeps with his wife, Allah-azwj would Grant to him the sustenance of a son who would delight his eyes, and he would be happy with him’.[3]
محمد بن يعقوب: عن علي بن إبراهيم، عن أبيه، عن ابن أبي عمير، عن بعض أصحابه، قال: شكا الأبرش الكلبي إلى أبي جعفر (عليه السلام) أنه قال: لا يولد له، و قال: علمني شيئا؟ قال: «استغفر الله في كل يوم أو في كل ليلة مائة مرة، فإن الله يقول: اسْتَغْفِرُوا رَبَّكُمْ إِنَّهُ كانَ غَفَّاراً إلى قوله وَ يُمْدِدْكُمْ بِأَمْوالٍ وَ بَنِينَ».
Muhammad Bin Yaqoub, from Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from one of his companions who said:
‘Al-Abrash Al-Kalby complained to Abu Ja’far-asws saying that he had no children, and said, ‘Can you-asws teach me something?’ He-asws said: ‘استغفر الله’ ‘Seek Forgiveness every day, or every night, one hundred times, for Allah-azwj is Saying [71:10] So I said, Ask forgiveness of your Lord, surely He is the most Forgiving up to His-azwj Words [71:12] And Help you with wealth and sons’.[4]
محمد بن يعقوب: عن أحمد بن محمد العاصمي، عن علي بن الحسن التيملي، عن عمرو بن عثمان، عن أبي جميلة، عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام)، قال: قال له رجل من أهل خراسان بالربذة: جعلت فداك، لم أرزق ولدا. فقال له: «إذا رجعت إلى بلادك و أردت أن تأتي أهلك فاقرأ إذا أردت ذلك: وَ ذَا النُّونِ إِذْ ذَهَبَ مُغاضِباً فَظَنَّ أَنْ لَنْ نَقْدِرَ عَلَيْهِ فَنادى فِي الظُّلُماتِ أَنْ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ سُبْحانَكَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ إلى ثلاث آيات، فإنك ترزق ولدا إن شاء الله تعالى».
Muhammad Bin Yaqoub, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Al Aasamy, from Ali Bin Al Hassan Al Taymily, from Amro Bin Usman, from Abu Jameela, from;
Abu Abdullah-asws, said, ‘A man from the people of Khurasan said to him-asws, at Al-Zabda, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws, I have not been Sustained with a son’. So he-asws said to him: ‘When you return to your country, and intend to come to your wife, so recite when you intend that [21:85] And Ismail and Idris and Zulkifl; all were of the patient ones [21:86] And We Included them into Our Mercy, surely they were of the righteous ones [21:87] And the one with the whale (Yunus), when he went away in anger, so he thought that We had no Power over him, so he called out in the darkness: There is no God but You, Glory be to You; surely I am from the unjust ones, the three Verses, and you would be Sustained with a son, if Allah-azwj so Desires it’.[5]
في الكافي محمد بن يحيى عن أحمد بن محمد عن على بن الحكم عن رجل عن محمد بن مسلم عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال: من أراد أن يحبل له فليصل ركعتين بعد الجمعة يطيل فيهما الركوع والسجود، ثم يقول: اللهم ان اسئلك بما سئلك به زكريا إذ قال: رب لا تذرني فردا وأنت خير الوارثين، اللهم هب لى ذرية طيبة انك سميع الدعاء اللهم باسمك استحللتها، وفى امانتك أخذتها، فان قضيت في رحمها ولدا فاجعله غلاما مباركا زكيا، ولا تجعل للشيطان فيه نصيبا ولا شركا.
In Al Kafi – Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from a man, from Muhammad Bin Muslim,
‘Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘The one who wants that there should be a pregnancy for (his wife), should Pray two cycles after the Friday, prolonging in it the Bowings and the Prostrations, then he should be saying, ‘Our Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj with what Zakariyya-as asked You-saww for when he said: [21:89] Do not leave me alone; and You are the Best of inheritors. Our Allah-azwj! Gift to me a good offspring, You-azwj are the Hearer of the supplication. Our Allah-azwj! It is by Your-azwj Name that I consider it permissible, and in Your-azwj Entrustment that I take it. Thus, if You-azwj Judge it so for a son to be in her womb, so Make it to be a Blessed boy, pure, and do not Let Satan-la to have any share in it or association’.[6]
محمد بن يحيى عن أحمد بن محمد عن على بن الحكم عن سيف بن عميرة عن أبى بكر الحضرمي عن الحارث النضرى قال قلت لابي عبد الله عليه السلام: انى من أهل بيت قد انقرضوا وليس لى ولد ؟ فقال: ادع وأنت ساجد: ” رب هب لى من لدنك وليا رب لا تذرني فردا وانت خير الوارثين ” قال: ففعلت فولد لى على والحسين.
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Sayf Bin Umeyra, from Abu Bakr Al Hazramy, from Al Haris Al Nazary who said,
‘I said to Abu Abdullah-asws, ‘I am from a household which may become extinct as there is no son for me’. So he-asws said: ‘Supplicate whilst in Prostration, ‘Lord-azwj, Bestow upon me a son from You-azwj. Lord-azwj! [21:89] Do not leave me alone; and You are the Best of inheritors’. He (the narrator) said, ‘So I did it, and there were born unto me, Ali and Al-Husayn’.[7]
