Asking for Needs and Seeking protection from Ahadith

Introduction:

Ahadith of Masomeen-asws on ‘asking for needs’ are presented in this short article.

For Paying Debts:

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من قرأها للخائف أمن من الخوف، و قراءتها للجائع يسكن جوعه، و العطشان يسكن عطشه، فإذا قرأها و أدمن قراءتها المديون أدى الله عنه دينه بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who recites it (Chpt 100-Sura العاديات)[1] for the fear would be safe from the fear, and if recited for the hunger it would abate his hunger, and for the thirst, it would abate the thirst. If it is recited and habitually recited for the debts, it would get his debts to be paid off, by the Permission of Allah-azwj the High’.[2]

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من قرأها على المريض سكنته، و من قرأها على الرجفان بردته، و من قرأها على المصروع تفيقه، و من قرأها على السهران تنومه، و إن أدمن في قراءتها من كان عليه دين كثير لم يبق شي‏ء بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who recites (Chpt. 66- Sura التحريم) upon a patient, it would settle him. And the one who recites it upon the trembling, it would cool it down. And the one who recites it upon the epileptic, it would wake him up. And the one who recites it upon the restlessness, it would put him to sleep. And the habitual recitation of it by the one who is heavily in debt, nothing of it would remain, by the Permission of Allah-azwj the High’.[3]

The Merits of ‘La a la Ha Illa Allah’:

VERSE 19

فَاعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنْبِكَ وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمُؤْمِنَاتِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مُتَقَلَّبَكُمْ وَمَثْوَاكُمْ {19}

[47:19] So know that there is no Allah but Allah, and, ask Forgiveness for your sin and for the Believing men and the Believing women; and Allah knows the place of your returning and the place of your abiding.

محمد بن يعقوب: بإسناده عن الفضيل بن عبد الوهاب، عن إسحاق بن عبيد الله، عن عبيد الله بن‏ الوليد الوصافي، رفعه، قال: قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله): «من قال لا إله إلا الله، غرست له شجرة في الجنة من ياقوتة حمراء، نبتها في مسك أبيض أحلى من العسل، و أشد بياضا من الثلج، و أطيب ريحا من المسك، فيها أمثال ثدي الأبكار، تفلق عن سبعين حلة».

Muhammad Bin Yaqoub, by his chain from Al-Fazeyl Bin Abdul Wahab, from Is’haq Bin Ubeydullah, from Ubeydullah Bin Al-Waleed Al-Wasafy, with an unbroken chain, said,

‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The one who says ‘There is no Allah except for Allah-azwj, a tree of red rubies is planted for him in the Paradise, in (ground of) musk whiter and sweeter than honey, and more intensely white than the snow, and more fragrant than the musk. In it are similar to the bosom of the virgins, would be visible from behind seventy veils’.

و قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله): «خير العبادة قول لا إله إلا الله» و قال: «خير العبادة الاستغفار، و ذلك قول الله عز و جل في كتابه: فَاعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ اسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنْبِكَ».

And Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The best of worship is to say ‘There is no Allah except for Allah-azwj’. The best worship is the Repentance, and these are the Words of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic in His-azwj Book [47:19] So know that there is no Allah but Allah, and, ask Forgiveness for your sin’.[4]

و عنه: عن أبي علي الأشعري، عن محمد بن عبد الجبار، عن صفوان بن يحيى، عن الحسين بن زيد، عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام)، قال: «قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله): الاستغفار و قول: لا إله إلا الله، خير العبادة، قال الله العزيز الجبار: فَاعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ اسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنْبِكَ‏

And from him, from Abu Ali Al-Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbar, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Al-Husayn Bin Zayd,

‘Abu Abdullah-asws has narrated that Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The repentance, and the saying that there is no Allah except for Allah-azwj, are the best of the worship. Allah-azwj the Mighty, the Compeller Said [47:19] So know that there is no Allah but Allah, and, ask Forgiveness for your sin’.[5]

قال الصادق عليه السلام عجبتُ لِمن فزع مِن أربعٍ كيف لا يفزع إلى أربعٍ: عجبتُ لِمَن خاف كيف لا يفزع إلى قوله: ]حَسْبُنا الله وَنِعْمَ الوَكِيل[ فإنّي سمعتُ الله يقول بعقبها: ]فانْقَلَبُوا بِنِعْمَةٍ مِنَ الله وَفَضْلٍ لَمْ يَمْسَسْهُمْ سُوءٌ[ وعجبتُ لِمَن اغتمّ كيف لا يفزع إلى قوله: ]لا إلهَ إلاّ أنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إنّي كُنْتُ مِنَ الْظالِمين[ فـإنّي سمعـتُ الله يـقول بعقبهـا: ]وَنَـجَّيْـنــاهُ مِنَ الْـغَـمِّ وكَـذلِـكَ نُـنْـجِـي الْمُؤْمِـنينَ وعجبتُ لِمَن مكر به كيف لا يفزع إلى قوله: ]وَأُفَوِّضُ أَمْري إلَىَ الله إنَّ الله بَصِيرٌ بِالْعِباد[ فإنِّي سمعتُ الله يقول بعقبها: ]فَوَقاهُ الله سَيِّئاتِ ما مَكَرُوا[ وعجبتُ لِمَن أراد الدنيا وزينتها كيف لا يفزع إلى ما شاءَ الله لا قُوَّةَ إلاَّ بِالله[ فإنَّي سمعتُ الله سبحانه و تعالي يقول بعقبها: ]إنْ تَرَنِ أَنَا أَقَلُّ مِنْكَ مالاً وَوَلَداً * فَعَسَى رَبِّي أَنْ يُؤْتِيَني خَيْراً مِنْ جَنَّتِكَ[ موجبةٌ

Imam Sadiq-asws said: “I-asws wonder why those who fear the following four things do not seek refuge in the following four things. Why doesn’t the one who fears take refuge in Allah-azwj‘s statement: “For us Allah sufficient, and He is the best disposer of affairs.” [The Holy Quran: Ali-i-Imran 3:173], since I heard that Allah-azwj added: “And they returned with Grace and Bounty from Allah; no harm ever touched them.” [The Holy Quran: Al-i-Imran 3:174] I wonder why does not the one who is sad take refuge in Allah-azwj‘s statement: “There is no Allah but Thou: Glory to Thee: I was indeed wrong!” [The Holy Quran: Anbiyaa 21:87], since I-asws heard that Allah-azwj added: “So We listened to him: and delivered him from distress: and thus do We deliver those who have faith.” [The Holy Quran: Anbiyaa 21:88]. I-asws wonder why doesn’t one who has been cheated take refuge in Allah-azwj‘s statement: “My (own) affair I commit to Allah: For Allah (ever) watches over His servants” [The Holy Quran: Mu-min 40:44], since I heard that Allah added: “Then Allah saved him from (every) ill that they plotted (against him).” [The Holy Quran: Mu-min 40:45]

And I-asws wonder why the one who wants this world and its ornaments doesn’t seek refuge in Allah-azwj‘s statement: “Allah’s Will (be done)! There is no power but with Allah! [The Holy Quran: Kahaf 18:39], since I-asws heard that Allah-azwj added: “If thou dost see me less than thee in wealth and sons, it may be that my Lord will give me something better than thy garden.” [The Holy Quran: Kahaf 18:39-40].[6]

For Ease and Ease in Giving Birth

و من (خواص القرآن): روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله) أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة حاسبه الله حسابا يسيرا، و من كتبها و علقها على امرأة، حامل حفظ ما في بطنها بإذن الله تعالى، و إن كتبت و غسلت و سقي ماؤها طفلا يرضع اللبن قبل كمال فطامه، خرج ذكيا حافظا».

And from Khawas Al-Quran –

It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Chapter (69) would be Accounted for by Allah-azwj with an easy Accounting. And the one who writes it and attaches it (Amulet) to a pregnant woman, it would Protect what is inside her by the Permission of Allah-azwj. And if written, or washed with, or drunk by the breastfed child, it would complete his weaning, and he would be intelligent, and with a good memory’.[7]

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «إذا كتبت و علقت على حامل حفظت الجنين، و إذا سقي منها الولد ذكاه و سلمه الله تعالى، و نشأ أحسن نشوء بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘If it (Chapter 69) is written and attached (Amulet) to a pregnant woman, it would Protect the unborn. And if the child is quenched from it (its water), it would be intelligent and would submit to Allah-azwj and would grow with a good growth’.[8]

ابن بابويه: بإسناده، عن جابر، عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام)، قال: «أكثروا من قراءة الحاقة، فإن قراءتها في الفرائض و النوافل من الإيمان بالله و رسوله، لأنها إنما نزلت في أمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام) و معاوية، و لم يسلب قارئها دينه حتى يلقى الله عز و جل».

Ibn Babuwayh, by his chain, from Jabir, has narrated:

‘Abu Abdullah-asws has said: ‘Frequently recite Surah Al-Haaqat (69), for its recitation in the obligatory (Prayers) or optional (Prayers) is from the faith in Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww, because it was Revealed regarding (the praise of) Amir-ul-Momineen-asws and (in the condemnation of) Muawiya. And the Religion of the one who recites it would not be taken away (by Allah-azwj) until he meets Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic’.[9]

Cure of Those Who do not Get Pregnant.

و روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله)، أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة أعطاه الله بكل حرف أمانا من حر جهنم، و إن كتبت بزعفران و علقت على امرأة لم تحمل، حملت بإذن الله تعالى، و إن علقت على نخل أو شجر يرمي ثمره أو ورقه، أمسك بإذن الله تعالى».

And it has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Chapter (Aal-e-Imraan-as), would be Given by Allah-azwj, for every letter, security from the heat of Hell. And if it is written by Saffron and attached (Amulet) upon a woman who does not get pregnant, will do so by the Permission of Allah-azwj. And if it is attached upon a palm tree, or a tree which sheds its fruits or leaves, it would hold these by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[10]

عن الصادق (عليه السلام)، قال: «إن كتبت بزعفران و علقت على امرأة تريد الحمل، حملت بإذن الله تعالى، و إن علقها معسر، يسر الله أمره، و رزقه الله تعالى».

From Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘If it is written by Saffron, and attached upon a woman intending to get pregnant, would do so by the Permission of Allah-azwj the High. And if one with difficult matters wears it (Amulet), Allah-azwj would Ease his matters, and would get sustenance from Allah-azwj the High’.[11]

The Signs of Hypocrisy and its Cure:

عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص ثَلَاثٌ مَنْ كُنَّ فِيهِ كَانَ مُنَافِقاً وَ إِنْ صَامَ وَ صَلَّى وَ زَعَمَ أَنَّهُ مُسْلِمٌ مَنْ إِذَا ائْتُمِنَ خَانَ وَ إِذَا حَدَّثَ كَذَبَ وَ إِذَا وَعَدَ أَخْلَفَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ قَالَ فِي كِتَابِهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يُحِبُّ الْخائِنِينَ وَ قَالَ أَنَّ لَعْنَتَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ إِنْ كانَ مِنَ الْكاذِبِينَ وَ فِي قَوْلِهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ اذْكُرْ فِي الْكِتابِ إِسْماعِيلَ إِنَّهُ كانَ صادِقَ الْوَعْدِ وَ كانَ رَسُولًا نَبِيًّا

A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziiyad, who from certain individual of his people from Abd Alah ibn Sinan who Says:

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘There are three (characteristics) even if one being found in a person, he would be a hypocrite even though he may Fast and Pray and claims to be a Muslim – One who, when is entrusted, he betrays it, and when he narrates, he lies, and when he promises, he goes against it. Allah-azwj has Said in His-azwj Book: Allah Does not Love the treacherous ones (8:58), also in His-azwj Words:  let Allah’s Condemnation be upon him if he lies (24:7), and in the Words of Allah-azwj, Mention in the Book, the story of Ishmael; he was true to his promise, a Messenger and a Prophet. (19: 54).[12]

العياشي: عن أبي بصير، عن أبي عبد الله، قال: سمعته يقول: «من قرأ سورة براءة و الأنفال في كل شهر لم يدخله نفاق أبدا، و كان من شيعة أمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام) حقا، و أكل يوم القيامة من موائد الجنة مع شيعته حتى يفرغ الناس من الحساب».

Al Ayyashi, from Abu Baseer, reports:

‘I heard Abu Abdullah-asws saying: ‘The one who recites Surah Bara’at (Chapter 9), and (Surah) Al-Anfaal (Chapter 8) during every month, hypocrisy would never enter into him, ever, and he would be from the true Shias of Amir-ul-Momineen-asws, and would eat on the Day of Judgement from the table of the Paradise along with his-asws Shias until the people are free from the Accounting’.[13]

ابن بابويه، قال: حدثنا علي بن أحمد بن محمد (رضي الله عنه)، قال: حدثنا محمد بن أبي عبد الله الكوفي، عن سهل بن زياد الآدمي، عن مبارك مولى الرضا (عليه السلام)، عن الرضا علي بن موسى (عليه السلام)، قال: «لا يكون المؤمن مؤمنا حتى يكون فيه ثلاث خصال: سنة من ربه، و سنة من نبيه، و سنة من وليه.

Ibn Babuwayh said, ‘Ali Bin Ahmad Bin Muhammad narrated to us, from Muhammad Bin Abu Abdullah Al Kufy, from Sahl Bin Ziyad Al Adamy, from Mubarak,

A (devout) slave of Al-Reza-asws (reports) from Al-Reza Ali-asws Bin Musa-asws having said: ‘A Believer cannot become a Believer until there are three characteristics in him (that he adheres to) – A Sunnah from his Lord-azwj, and a Sunnah from his Prophet-saww, and a Sunnah from his Guardian-asws.

فأما السنة من ربه‏ فكتمان السر، قال الله عز و جل: عالِمُ الْغَيْبِ فَلا يُظْهِرُ عَلى غَيْبِهِ أَحَداً إِلَّا مَنِ ارْتَضى مِنْ رَسُولٍ ، و أما السنة من نبيه فمداراة الناس، فإن الله عز و جل أمر نبيه (صلى الله عليه و آله) بمداراة الناس، فقال: خُذِ الْعَفْوَ وَ أْمُرْ بِالْعُرْفِ وَ أَعْرِضْ عَنِ الْجاهِلِينَ، و أما السنة من وليه فالصبر على البأساء و الضراء، يقول الله عز و جل: وَ الصَّابِرِينَ فِي الْبَأْساءِ وَ الضَّرَّاءِ وَ حِينَ الْبَأْسِ أُولئِكَ الَّذِينَ صَدَقُوا وَ أُولئِكَ هُمُ الْمُتَّقُونَ».

As for the Sunnah from his Lord-azwj, so it is the concealment of the secret. Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic [72:26] The Knower of the unseen! So He does not Reveal His secrets to any, [72:27] Except to him whom He chooses from the Rasool. And as for the Sunnah from his Prophet-saww, so it is the concealment from the people, for Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Commanded His-azwj Prophet-saww for concealment from the people, so He-azwj Said [7:199] Take to Forgiveness and enjoin good and turn aside from the ignorant. And as for the Sunnah from his Guardian-asws, so it is the patience upon the evil and adversities. Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Says [2:177] and the patient in tribulation and adversity. Such are the people of truth, the pious’.[14]

Supplication for Forgetfulness:

عن النوفلي عن السكوني عن أبي عبد الله ع قال إذا أنساك الشيطان شيئا فضع يدك على جبهتك و قل

Al-Nafaly has narrated from Al-Sakuni who has said the following:

Abu Abdillah-asws said If the shaitan makes you forget, you should put your hands on your forehead and say:-

اللهم إني أسألك يا مذكر الخير و فاعله و الآمر به أن تصلي على محمد و آل محمد و تذكرني ما أنسانيه الشيطان الرجيم

Our Allah-azwj I ask You-azwj O Reminder of the ‘الخير’ (The good, Masomeen-asws), it’s Implementor and the Commander, I pray to You for the sake of Mohammed and his Holy Progeny Protect me from the forgetfulness (induced) by the accursed Satan. [15]

Finding a Lost Item:

في اصول الكافي محمد بن يحيى عن عبد الله بن جعفر عن السيارى عن محمد بن بكر عن ابى الجارود عن الاصبغ بن نباتة عن أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام انه قال: والذى بعث محمدا صلى الله عليه واله بالحق واكرم اهل بيته ما من شئ يطلبونه من حرز، من حرق أو غرق أو سرق أو افلات دابة من صاحبها أو ضالة أو آبق الا وهو في القرآن، فمن اراد ذلك فليسألني عنه، قال: فقام إليه رجل فقال: يا أمير المؤمنين أخبرني عن الضالة ؟ فقال: اقرء يس في ركعتين وقل: يا هادى الضالة رد على ضالتي، ففعل فرد الله عليه ضالته.

In Usool Al-Kafi, Muhammad Bin Yahya from Abdullah Bin Ja’far from Al-Sayari from Muhammad Bin Bakr from Abu Al-Jaroud fro Al-Asbagh Bin Nabata,

‘Amir-ul-Momineen-asws having said: ‘By the One Who-azwj Sent Muhammad-saww with the Truth and Honoured the People-as of his-saww Household, there is none from Amulets for safety from burning, or drowning or theft, or animals straying away from their owners, or losing something, or keeping it, except that it is in the Quran. One who intends that should ask me-asws about it.’ Asbagh said that a man stood up saying,’ O Amr-ul-Momineen-asws, can you inform me about the lost property?’ He-asws: ‘Recite Yaseen in two Cycles (of Prayer) and say “O Guide to the lost, return to me that which I have lost”. He did that. Allah-azwj Returned his lost property back to him’.[16]

Find a Lost Person or Lost Property:

و من (خواص القرآن): روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله)، أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة، وجبت له شفاعة محمد (صلى الله عليه و آله) يوم القيامة، و كتب له من الحسنات بعدد كل سائل و يتيم عشر مرات، و إن كتبها على اسم غائب ضال رجع إلى أصحابه سالما، و من نسي في موضع شيئا ثم ذكره و قرأها، حفظه الله إلى أن يأخذه».

And from Khawas Al-Quran:

It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Chapter (93), the intercession of Muhammad-saww on the Day of Judgement would be obligated for him, and there will be written for him from the Rewards of the number of every beggar and orphan, ten times over. And if it is written upon the name of an absentee (missing person), he would return to his companions safely. And the one who forgets anything kept in a place, then mentions it and recites it, Allah-azwj would Keep it Safe for him until he takes it’.[17]

For Calming Down New Born:

و من (خواص القرآن): روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله)، أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة حاسبه الله حسابا يسيرا، و من قرأها على مولود بشرا و غيره صارخ أو شارد، سكنته و هدأته».

And from Khawas Al-Quran –

It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Chapter (88), Allah-azwj would Reckon him with an easy Reckoning. And the one who recites it upon the newborn baby, in front of it or in its absence, it would make it to be tranquil and calm’.[18]

و قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله): «من كتبها في إناء و شربها زال عنه وجع البطن، و إن علقت على الحامل المتعسرة ولدت سريعا».

And Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The one who writes it (Chapter 51) in a container and drinks it (water), his stomach pain would go away. And if it is attached (Amulet) upon the pregnant (woman) with obstruction (in birth), would give birth easily’.[19]

Asking for Children:

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: ‘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’.[20]

For Wining Hearts and Reconciliation

و عن الصادق (عليه السلام)، قال: «من كتبها و جعلها في خرقة حرير خضراء، و راح إلى قوم يريد التزويج منهم، تم له ذلك و وقع، و إن قصد في إصلاح قوم تم له ذلك، و لم يخالفه أحد منهم، و إن مشى بين عسكرين افترقا و لم يقاتل بعضهم بعضا، و إذا شرب ماءها المظلوم من السلطان، و دخل على من ظلمه من أي السلاطين، زال عنه ظلمه بقدرة الله تعالى، و خرج من عنده مسرورا، و إذا اغتسلت بمائها من لا طالب لعرسها خطبت، و سهل عرسها بإذن الله تعالى».

And from Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘The one who writes it (Chapter 20 of the holy Quran   طه) in a green silk cloth, and goes to a group, intending the marriage from them, that would be completed for him/her and would occur.

And if one intends reconciliation among one another, that would be completed for him/her, and no one from among them would oppose him/her. And if he were to walk in between two soldiers, they would separate and would not fight against each other. And if its water is drunk by the one oppressed from the king, and he comes up to the one who oppressed him from whichever king, his oppression would decline from him by the Power of Allah-azwj the High, and he would come out from him joyful. And when she (a woman) who is not sought for her marriage washes with its water, her marriage would be easier by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[21]

و من خواص القرآن: روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله)، أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة حاسبه الله حسابا يسيرا، و صافحه و سلم عليه كل نبي ذكر فيها، و من كتبها في رق ظبي و جعلها في وسطه و نام، لم يستيقظ من رقاده إلا و قد رأى عجائب مما يسر بها قلبه بإذن الله تعالى».

And from Khawas Al Quran –

‘It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Chapter (21- الأنبياء- The Prophets), Allah-azwj would Reckon him with an easy Reckoning, and every Prophet-as Mentioned in it would shake hands with him and greet him.

And the one who writes it in a parchment of an antelope (skin) and makes it to be upon his/he mid-section (chest) and sleeps, would not wake up except that she/he would see from the wonders which would ease his/her heart, by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[22]

Supplications for Fulfilment of Needs

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ حَفْصٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ مَنْ كَانَ مُسَافِراً فَلْيُسَافِرْ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ فَلَوْ أَنَّ حَجَراً زَالَ عَنْ جَبَلٍ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ لَرَدَّهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ ذِكْرُهُ إِلَى مَوْضِعِهِ وَ مَنْ تَعَذَّرَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْحَوَائِجُ فَلْيَلْتَمِسْ طَلَبَهَا يَوْمَ الثَّلَاثَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي أَلَانَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ الْحَدِيدَ لِدَاوُدَ (عليه السلام).

And by this chain, from Hafs, who has reported the following:

Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘The one who wants to travel so he should do so on the day of Saturday. Even if a stone falls off a mountain on the day of Saturday, Allah-azwj would Return it to its place. And the one who is unable to fulfill his need should seek it on the day of Tuesday, for it is the day in which Allah-azwj Softened the iron for Dawood-as’.[23]

و من (خواص القرآن): قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله): «من قرأها و طلب حاجة سهل الله قضائها».

And from Khawas Al-Quran –

The Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The one who recites it (71) and seeks a need, Allah-azwj would Fulfill it quickly’.[24]

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من أدمن قراءتها ليلا أو نهارا لم يمت حتى يرى مقعده في الجنة، و إذا قرئت في وقت طلب حاجة قضيت بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who habitually recites it (71), during the night or the day, will not die until he sees his seat in the Paradise. And if it is recited during the seeking of a need, it would be Fulfilled, by the Permission of Allah-azwj the High’.[25]

Success in Business, Harvest and Trading:

ومن (خواص القرآن): روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله) أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة لم يقطع الله رجاءه يوم القيامة، و يعطى ما يعطى الخائفون الذين خافوا الله في الدنيا و من كتبها و علقها في حائط بستان اخضر و نما، و إن كتبت في خانات، أو دكان، كثر الخير فيه و كثر البيع و الشراء».

And from Khawas Al Quran –

It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said; ‘The one who recites this Surah (Chapter 40), Allah-azwj will not Cut-off his hopes on the Day of Judgement, and he would be Given what the Allah-fearing would be Given, the ones who feared Allah-azwj in the world. And the one who writes it, and attaches it (Amulet) upon a garden wall, it would be greener and grow better. And if it was written in boxes or a shop, there would be a lot of good in it, and a lot of buying and selling would take place’.[26]

For Growing Seeds:

محمد بن يعقوب: عن علي بن إبراهيم، عن أبيه، عن ابن أبي عمير، عن ابن أذنية، عن ابن بكير، قال: قال أبو عبد الله (عليه السلام): «إذا أردت أن تزرع زرعا فخذ قبضة من البذر، و استقبل القبلة، و قل: أَ فَرَأَيْتُمْ ما تَحْرُثُونَ أَ أَنْتُمْ تَزْرَعُونَهُ أَمْ نَحْنُ الزَّارِعُونَ ثلاث مرات، ثم قل: بل الله الزارع ثلاث مرات، ثم قل: اللهم اجعله حبا مباركا، و ارزقنا فيه السلامة ثم انثر القبضة التي في يدك في القراح».

Muhammad Bin Yaqoub, from Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Ibn Azinat, from Ibn Bakeyr who said that,

Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘When you intend to sow the seed, take seeds in your grip, and face towards the Qiblah, and say [56:63] Have you considered what you cultivate? [56:64] Is it you who cause it to grow, or are We the Causers of its growth? three times, then say, “But Allah-azwj is the Cultivator” three times, then say “Our Allah-azwj! Make this to be a blessed growth, and Sustain us in this in safety”, then spread out the seeds that are in your hand in the barren land.’[27]

And the habitual recitation of it brings the sustenance and the livelihood, and he would be endeared to the people’.[29]

For a Son:

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 the one who recites it and attaches it (Amulet) upon his waist, and copulates 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’.[30]

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 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 copulates 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’.[31]

Supplication for a Son:

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,

(It has been narrated) 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 Allah 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’.[32]

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 him (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’.[33]

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’.[34]

For Success and Successful with People:

و من (خواص القرآن): روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله)، أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة بعثه الله تعالى يوم القيامة و وجهه كالقمر ليلة البدر، مسفرا على وجه الخلائق، و من قرأها كل ليلة كان أفضل، و من كتبها يوم الجمعة وقت الصلاة الظهر و جعلها في عمامته أو تعلقها، كان وجيها أينما قصد و طلب».

And from Khawas Al-Quran –

It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Chapter (54), Allah-azwj the High would Resurrect him on the Day of Judgement, and his face would be like the moon on the night of the full moon, continuously emitting light from his face upon the creatures. And the one who recites it every night, it would be better. And the one who writes it on the Day of Friday at the time of the Midday (الظهر) Prayer, and keeps it in his turban or attaches it (Amulet), he would be likeable, wherever he may intend and seek (friendship/reconciliation)’.[35]

و قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله): «من كتبها يوم الجمعة وقت الظهر و تركها في عمامته، أو علقها عليه، كان وجيها عند الناس محبوبا».

And Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The one who writes it on the Day of Friday at the time of Mid-day (Prayer) and leaves it in his turban, or attaches it (Amulet), would become likeable and will be loved by the people’.[36]

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من كتبها يوم الجمعة عند صلاة الظهر و علقها على عمامته، كان عند الناس وجيها و مقبولا، و سهلت عليه الأمور الصعبة بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who writes it on the Day of Friday during the Midday (الظهر) Prayer, and attaches it upon his turban, would become likable in the presence of the people and his difficult affairs would be easy by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[37]

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «قراءتها تخشع و تجلب العفاف و الصيانة، و من قرأها لم يخف من سلطان، و حفظ في ليله- إذا قرأها- و نهاره بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The recitation of it (75) makes one humble and brings chastity and the livelihood. And the one who recites is would never fear the Authorities (Sultan), and would be Protected during the night – if he were to recite it – and the day, by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[38]

For Winning the Hearts and Getting Married:

و من (خواص القرآن): عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله)، أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة اعطي يوم القيامة مثل ثواب المهاجرين و الأنصار، و من كتبها و جعلها في خرقة حرير خضراء، و قصد إلى قوم يريد التزويج، لم يرد و قضيت حاجته، و إن مشى بين عسكرين يقتتلان افترقوا و لم يقاتل أحد منهم الآخر، و إن دخل على سلطان كفاه الله شره، و قضى له جميع حوائجه، و كان عنده جليل القدر».

And from Khawas Al Quran –

‘It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Chapter (20) would be Given the Rewards similar to the Rewards of the Emigrants and the Helpers. And the one who writes it and makes it to be in a green silk cloth, and go to a group, intending the marriage, would not be repulsed and his need would be fulfilled. And if he walks in between two soldiers fighting each other, they would be separated and one of them would not fight the other. And if he enters upon an authority, Allah-azwj would Restrain the evil from him, and Fulfill all of his needs, and would be majestic and worthy in his presence’.[39]

و عن الصادق (عليه السلام)، قال: «من كتبها و جعلها في خرقة حرير خضراء، و راح إلى قوم يريد التزويج منهم، تم له ذلك و وقع، و إن قصد في إصلاح قوم تم له ذلك، و لم يخالفه أحد منهم، و إن مشى بين عسكرين افترقا و لم يقاتل بعضهم بعضا، و إذا شرب ماءها المظلوم من السلطان، و دخل على من ظلمه من أي السلاطين، زال عنه ظلمه بقدرة الله تعالى، و خرج من عنده مسرورا، و إذا اغتسلت بمائها من لا طالب لعرسها خطبت، و سهل عرسها بإذن الله تعالى».

And from Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘The one who writes it (Chapter 20) in a green silk cloth, and goes to a group, intending the marriage from them, that would be completed for him and would occur. And if he intends reconciliation among a people, that would be completed for him, and no one from among them would oppose him. And if he were to walk in between two soldiers, they would separate and would not fight against each other. And if its water is drunk by the one oppressed from the king, and he comes up to the one who oppressed him from whichever king, his oppression would decline from him by the Power of Allah-azwj the High, and he would come out from him joyful. And when she (a woman) who is not sought for her marriage washes with its water, her marriage would be easier by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[40]

Prayers for Marriage:

الجعفريات: أخبرنا عبد الله أخبرنا محمد، حدثي موسى، قال: حدثنا أبي، عن أبيه، عن جده جعفر بن محمد، عن أبيه عن جده علي بن الحسين، عن أبيه، عن علي (عليهم السلام)، قال: ” من أراد منكم التزويج فليصل ركعتين، فليقرأ فيهما فاتحة الكتاب ويس، فإذا فرغ من الصلاة فليحمد الله تعالى وليثن عليه، وليقل: اللهم ارزقني زوجة ودودا ولودا شكورا غيورا، إن أحسنت شكرت، وإن أسأت غفرت، وإن ذكرت الله تعالى أعانت، وإن نسيت ذكرت، وإن خرجت من عندها حفظت، وإن دخلت عليها سرتني، وإن أمرتها أطاعتني، وإن أقسمت عليها أبرت قسمي، وإن غضبت عليها أرضتني، يا ذا الجلال والاكرام، هب لي ذلك فإنما أسألكه ولا آخذ إلا ما مننت وأعطيت، وقال: من فعل ذلك أعطاه الله ما سأل ” الخبر.

Though a chain of narrators, it is reported that Imam-asws said: ‘Who wants to get married, he/she should offer two-Rakaah Salat,  reciting Surah Al-Hamd and al-Yassin, (in each Rakaah) upon finishing the prayer then the person should praises Allah-azwj then stand up and should say: ……..

اللهم ارزقني زوجة ودودا ولودا شكورا غيورا، إن أحسنت شكرت، وإن أسأت غفرت، وإن ذكرت الله تعالى أعانت، وإن نسيت ذكرت، وإن خرجت من عندها حفظت، وإن دخلت عليها سرتني، وإن أمرتها أطاعتني، وإن أقسمت عليها أبرت قسمي، وإن غضبت عليها أرضتني، يا ذا الجلال والاكرام، هب لي ذلك فإنما أسألكه ولا آخذ إلا ما مننت وأعطيت، وقال: من فعل ذلك أعطاه الله ما سأل ” الخبر.

O Allah-azwj! Grace me a wife (who is) cordial, friendly, grateful, with self-esteem. If I am good to her she would be grateful, and if I were to be bad to her she would forgive me, and if I mention Allah-azwj the Exalted she would be supportive, and if I forget, she would remind me, and if I go out from her presence, she would be preserving, and if I come over to her, she would veil me, and if I order her she would obey me, and if I were to swear upon her, she would free my oath, and if I am angry upon her she would please me. O the One With Majesty and the Benevolence! Endow that unto me, for rather I am asking You-azwj for it and do not take except what You-azwj Favour and Gift (to me)’. And he-asws said: ‘The one who does that, Allah-azwj would Give him what he asks for. – The Hadeeth.[41]

الصَّدُوقُ فِي الْمُقْنِعِ،” فَإِذَا أَرَدْتَ‏ التَّزْوِيجَ‏ فَصَلِ‏ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَ احْمَدِ اللَّهَ وَ ارْفَعْ يَدَيْكَ وَ قُلْ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَتَزَوَّجَ فَقَدِّرْ لِي مِنَ النِّسَاءِ أَعَفَّهُنَّ فَرْجاً وَ أَحْسَنَهُنَّ خُلُقاً وَ أَحْفَظَهُنَّ لِي فِي نَفْسِهَا وَ مَالِي وَ أَوْسَعَهُنَّ رِزْقاً وَ أَعْظَمَهُنَّ بَرَكَةً وَ قَيِّضْ لِي مِنْهَا وَلَداً طَيِّباً تَجْعَلُهُ لِي خَلَفاً صَالِحاً فِي حَيَاتِي وَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِي وَ إِذَا دَخَلَتْ عَلَيْكَ فَخُذْ بِنَاصِيَتِهَا وَ اسْتَقْبِلْ بِهَا الْقِبْلَةَ فَقُلِ

Al Sadouq in Al Maqna – Whenever you intend for the marriage, so pray two Cycles of Salaat and Praise Allahazwj, and raise your hands and say, ‘O Allahazwj! I want to get married, so Ordain for me (such) from the women who are pious regarding their private part, and with the best of morals, and preserving for me with regards to herself and my wealth, and extensive of grace, and great of Blessings, give birth for me from her, good children, making it for me righteous successors during my lifetime and after my death’. And when she comes over to you, so grab her forehead and face the Qiblah with her and say,

اللَّهُمَّ بِأَمَانَتِكَ أَخَذْتُهَا وَ بِكَلِمَاتِكَ اسْتَحْلَلْتُ فَرْجَهَا فَإِنْ قَضَيْتَ لِي مِنْهَا وَلَداً فَاجْعَلْهُ مُبَارَكاً تَقِيّاً مِنْ شِيعَةِ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ع وَ لَا تَجْعَلْ لِلشَّيْطَانِ فِيهِ شِرْكاً وَ لَا نَصِيباً.

‘O Allah-azwj! By Your Security do I take her and by Your Word do I regard her private part as Permissible, therefore if You were to Ordain a child for me, from her, so Make it to be Blessed, pious, from the Shias of the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and do not Make a participation in it for the Satan-la, nor a share’.[42]

وقال في سورة طه: من جعلها معه، ومضى إلى قوم يريد التزويج منهم زوجوه. قلت: ويظهر من مجموعة الشهيد وغيرها، أن ما نقل من الخواص، مروي من الصادق (عليه السلام) والله العالم.

And he-asws said regarding Surah Taha (Chapter 20), ‘The one who keeps it with him, and goes to a people intending the marriage from them, they would marry (their daughter) to him’.

I said, ‘And it is apparent from the comprehensive (collection) of the Martyr (Shaheed Al-Saany?) and others, what is copied from the specialities (of the Quran), reported from Al-Sadiq-asws, and Allah-azwj is the Knower’.[43]

روي أنه سأل الصادق عليه السلام أبا بصير إذا تزوج أحدكم كيف يصنع قلت: ما أدرى قال: إذا هم بذلك فليصل ركعتين ويحمد الله عزوجل ويقول: اللهم إني اريد أن أتزوج، اللهم فقدر لي من النساء أحسنهن خلقا وخلقا وأعفهن فرجا وأحفظهن لي في نفسها ومالي، وأوسعهن رزقا، وأعظمهن بركة وقيض لى منها ولدا طيبا تجعله لي خلفا صالحا في حياتي وبعد موتي

Abu Baseer has reported that Al-Sadiq-asws asked (me): ‘When one of you gets married how does he do it?’ I said, ‘I do not know’. He-asws said: ‘When he thinks about that, so let him pray two Cycles of Salat, and he should Praise Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic and he should be saying, ‘O Allah-azwj! Ordain for me from the women who is the best of morals and physique, and pious regarding her private part, and protective of herself for me and my wealth, and extensive of sustenance, and great of Blessings, and there would be born for me, from her, a good child, making it for me a righteous successor during my lifetime and after my death’.

The one who writes it in a paper (skin) of a gazelle, and makes it to be in (حق) a pot with a glass lid) in his house, the speakers would frequent to him, and seek from him the marriage of his daughters, and his sisters, and the rest of his near-relatives, and every one would wish for it, even if he was a poor pauper, by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[45]

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who writes it and attaches it (Amulet) to himself, would be safe from every evil gossiper. And if it attached (Amulet) upon the child when it is cut from the womb of its mother, would be safe and fortified, by the Permission of Allah-azwj the High’.[47]

‘Abu Abdullah-asws has said: ‘The one who recites Surah Al-Saffaat every Friday, will not cease to be Protected from every illness. Every affliction would be driven away from him in the life of the world. His future sustenance in the world would be expanded. He would neither be hit regarding his wealth, and his sons, or his body, with the evil from the Accursed Satan-la, nor from a mighty tyrant. And if he were to die during its day, or during its night, Allah-azwj would Resurrect him as a martyr, and his death would be that of a martyr, and he would enter the Paradise along with the martyrs in the lofty Level in the Paradise’.[49]

For Paying Debts Off:

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من قرأها للخائف أمن من الخوف، و قراءتها للجائع يسكن جوعه، و العطشان يسكن عطشه، فإذا قرأها و أدمن قراءتها المديون أدى الله عنه دينه بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who recites it (100)[50] for the fear would be safe from the fear, and if recited for the hunger it would abate his hunger, and for the thirst, it would abate the thirst. If it is recited and habitually recited for the debts, it would get his debts to be paid off, by the Permission of Allah-azwj the High’.[51]

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من قرأها على المريض سكنته، و من قرأها على الرجفان بردته، و من قرأها على المصروع تفيقه، و من قرأها على السهران تنومه، و إن أدمن في قراءتها من كان عليه دين كثير لم يبق شي‏ء بإذن الله تعالى».

And the one who recites it upon the epileptic, it would wake him up. And the one who recites it upon the restlessness, it would put him to sleep. And the habitual recitation of it by the one who is heavily in debt, nothing of it would remain, by the Permission of Allah-azwj the High’.[52]

For Protection Before going to Bed at Night

ابن بابويه: بإسناده، عن أبي بصير، عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام)، قال: «من قرأ تبارك الذي بيده الملك في المكتوبة قبل أن ينام، لم يزل في أمان الله حتى يصبح، و في أمانه يوم القيامة حتى يدخل الجنة».

Ibn Babuwayh, by his chain, from Abu Baseer,

‘Abu Abdullah-asws has said: ‘The one who recites [67] Blessed is the One in Whose Hand is the Kingdom (Surah Al-Mulk) in the Prescribed (Prayers) before he sleeps, he would never cease to be in the Protection of Allah-azwj until the morning, and in His-azwj Protection on the Day of Judgement until he enters the Paradise’.[56]

محمد بن يعقوب: عن عدة من أصحابنا، عن سهل بن زياد، و محمد بن يحيى، عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى جميعا، عن ابن محبوب، عن جميل، عن سدير، عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام)، قال: «سورة الملك هي المانعة، تمنع من عذاب القبر، و هي مكتوبة في التوراة سورة الملك، [و] من قرأها في ليلته فقد أكثر و أطاب و لم يكتب من الغافلين، و إني لأركع بها بعد العشاء الآخرة و أنا جالس، و إن والدي (عليه السلام) كان يقرؤها في يومه و ليلته.

Muhammad Bin Yaqoub, from a number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, and Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad bin Isa altogether, from Ibn Mahboub, from Jameel, from Sudeyr, who has narrated the following:

‘Abu Ja’far-asws has said: ‘Surah Al-Mulk (67), it is the Preventer, it Prevents from the Punishment of the grave. And Surah Al-Mulk, it is Written in the Torah. And the one who recites it during his night which has mostly past, and repents, and will never be written down as being from the oblivious ones. And I-asws was kneeling by it after the last dinner, and I-asws was seated, and that my-asws father-asws used to recite it during his-asws day and his-asws night.

و من قرأها، إذا دخل عليه في قبره ناكر و نكير من قبل رجليه قالت رجلاه لهما: ليس لكما إلى من قبلي سبيل، قد كان هذا العبد يقوم علي، فيقرأ سورة الملك في كل يوم و ليلة فإذا أتياه من قبل جوفه قال لهما: ليس لكما إلى من قبلي سبيل، قد كان هذا العبد أوعاني في كل يوم و ليلة سورة الملك، و إذا أتياه من قبل لسانه قال لهما: ليس لكما إلى من قبلي سبيل، قد كان هذا العبد يقرأ بي في كل يوم و ليلة سورة الملك».

And the one who recites it, when there enter upon him Naakir and Nakeer (Two questioning Angels) from the side of his feet, his feet would say to the two of them, ‘There is no way for the two of you towards me, for this is the servant who used to stand upon me, so he recited Surah Al-Mulk every day and night. So if they come to him from his middle side, it would say to the two of them, ‘There is no way for the two of you towards me’, for this is the servant who blew on to me Surah Al-Mulk, every day and night. And if they come to him from the side of his tongue, it would say to the two of them, ‘There is no way for the two of you towards me, for this servant used to recite Surah Al-Mulk with me every day and night’.[57]

And if it is recited upon what is buried or secured, it would Protect it until its owner takes it out’.[58]

و قال الإمام الصادق (عليه السلام): «من قرأها عند مريض نومته و سكنته. و إذا أدمن على قراءتها ليلا أو نهارا حفظ من كل طارق. و إن قرئت على ما يخزن أو يدفن يحفظ إلى أن يخرج من ذلك الموضع. و إذا كتبت و طرحت في الحبوب، زال عنها ما يفسدها و يتلفها بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Imam Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who recites it in the presence of a (sick) patient, it would put him to sleep and settle him. And its habitually recitation, day or night, would Protect him from every darkness. And if it is recited upon what has been treasured, or buried, it would be Protected until it is taken out from that place. And if it is written and placed in the grain, whatever spoils it and destroys it, would go away from it by the Permission of Allah-saww’.[59]

And the one who recites it whilst he is imprisoned and it is written and attached (Amulet) to him, Allah-azwj would Ease his release, quickly’.[63]

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من قرأها ليلا أمن من الجنابة و الاحتلام، و أمن في تمام ليله إلى أن يصبح بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who recites it (70) at night would be safe from the bed wetting (impurities) and wet dreams, and would be safe the whole night up to the morning, by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[91]

Protection in Sleep, from Jins and Disease

ابن بابويه: بإسناده، عن أبي المغرا، عن أبي بصير، عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام)، قال: «من قرأ سورة الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لم يرتب أبدا، و لم يدخله شك في دينه أبدا، و لم يبتله الله بفقر أبدا، و لا خوف من سلطان أبدا، و لم يزل محفوظا من الشك و الكفر أبدا حتى يموت، فإذا مات وكل الله به في قبره ألف ملك يصلون في قبره، يكون ثواب صلاتهم له، و يشيعونه حتى يوقفوه موقف الأمن عند الله عز و جل، و يكون في أمان الله و أمان محمد (صلى الله عليه و آله)».

Ibn Babuwayh, by his chain, from Abu Al-Magra, from Abu Baseer,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah-asws: ‘The one who recites Surah [47] (As for) those who disbelieve (Chapter 47 known as Surah Muhammad-saww) would not be suspicious ever, and doubt will not enter in his Religion ever, and Allah-azwj will never Involve him in poverty ever, and will not fear the authorities ever, and will not cease being Protected from the doubt and the infidelity ever until he dies. So when he dies, Allah-azwj Allocates a thousand Angels to be in his grave to be Praying in his grave, their Rewards of their Prayers would be transferred onto him, these would be spread for him until he pauses at a secure place in the Presence of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, and would become to be in the Protection of Allah-azwj and the protection of Muhammad-saww’.[92]

و من (خواص القرآن): روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله)، أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة لم يول وجهه جهة إلا رأى فيه وجه رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله) إذا خرج من قبره، و كان حقا على الله تعالى أن يسقيه من أنهار الجنة، و من كتبها و علقها عليه، أمن في نومه و يقظته من كل محذور ببركتها».

And from Khawas Al-Quran – It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Chapter (47), his face would not be given authorisation until he sees in it the face of Rasool-Allah-saww when he comes out form his grave. And he would have a right upon Allah-azwj the High that he should be quenched from the River of the Paradise. And the one who recites it and attaches it (Amulet), would be safe in his sleep, and be vigilant from every hazard due to its Blessings’.[93]

و قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله): «من كتبها و علقها عليه، أمن في نومه و يقظته من كل محذور، و كان محروسا من كل بلاء و داء».

And Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The one who writes it (47) and attaches it (Amulet), would be safe in his sleep, and be vigilant from every hazard, and would be given strength against every affliction and disease’.[94]

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من كتبها و علقها عليه دفع عنه الجان، و أمن في نومه و يقظته و إذا جعلها إنسان على رأسه كفي شر كل طارق بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who writes it and attaches it (Amulet), the Jinn would be repulsed from him, and he would be safe in his sleep, and be vigilant when a human makes an evil to come upon his head on every road, by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[95]

في مجمع البيان بعد ان نقل حديث ثواب الاعمال وقال عليه السلام: من اراد ان يعرف حالنا وحال اعدائنا فليقرأ سورة محمد صلى الله عليه واله فانه يراها آية فينا وآية فيهم.

In Majma Al-Bayaan after having copied a Hadeeth from Sawaab Al-Amaal,

And he-asws said: ‘The one who intends to recognise our-asws situation and the situation of our-asws enemies, so he should recite Surah Muhammad-saww, for he would see a Verse regarding us-asws and a Verse regarding them’.[96]

Safety from the Jins

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من كتبها و علقها على المتبوع، أمن من شيطانه، و لم يعد إليه، و أمن من كل ما يحذر من الخوف، و المرأة إذا شربت ماءها درت اللبن بعد إمساكه، و حفظ جنينها، و أمنت على نفسها من كل خوف و محذور بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who writes it and attaches it upon the stalked one, would be safe from its devil, and will not return to it, and be safe from every danger which he fears. And when the woman drinks it water, would release the milk after its withholding, and would protect her unborn child, and would have security for herself from every fear and hazard, by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[97]

Safety from Thieves and Hypocrisy:

العياشي: عن أبي بصير، عن أبي عبد الله، قال: سمعته يقول: «من قرأ سورة براءة و الأنفال في كل شهر لم يدخله نفاق أبدا، و كان من شيعة أمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام) حقا، و أكل يوم القيامة من موائد الجنة مع شيعته حتى يفرغ الناس من الحساب».

Al Ayyashi, from Abu Baseer,

(It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah-asws, said, ‘I heard him-asws saying: ‘The one who recites Surah Bara’at (Chapter 9), and (Surah) Al-Anfaal (Chapter 8) during every month, hypocrisy would never enter into him, ever, and he would be from the true Shias of Amir-ul-Momineen-asws, and would eat on the Day of Judgement from the table of the Paradise along with his-asws Shiah until the people are free from the Accounting’.[98]

الطبرسي: عن علي (عليه السلام): «لم تنزل بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم على رأس سورة براءة لأن بسم الله للأمان و الرحمة، و نزلت براءة لرفع الأمان بالسيف».

Al Tabarsy,

(It has been narrated) Ali-asws having said: ‘(The Verse) ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent the Merciful was not Revealed at the top of Surah Bara’at, because ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj’ it is for the Safety and the Mercy, and (Surah) Bara’at Lifted the Safety by the sword’.[99]

و عن الصادق (عليه السلام) قال: «الأنفال و براءة واحدة».

And (It has been narrated) from Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘(Surahs) Al-Anfaal (Chapter 8), and Bara’at (Chapter 9) are one’.[100]

Safety from the Jins during the Childbirth:

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من كتبها و علقها على المتبوع، أمن من شيطانه، و لم يعد إليه، و أمن من كل ما يحذر من الخوف، و المرأة إذا شربت ماءها درت اللبن بعد إمساكه، و حفظ جنينها، و أمنت على نفسها من كل خوف و محذور بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who writes it and attaches it upon the stalked one, would be safe from its devil, and will not return to it, and be safe from every danger which he fears. And when the woman drinks it water, would release the milk after its withholding, and would protect her unborn child, and would have security for herself from every fear and hazard, by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[101]

For Good Life and Peaceful Death:

ابن بابويه: بإسناده، عن سيف بن عميرة، عن منصور، عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام)، قال: «من قرأ سورة المزمل في العشاء الآخرة، أو في آخر الليل، كان له الليل و النهار شاهدين مع سورة المزمل، و أحياه الله حياة طيبة، و أماته ميتة طيبة».

Ibn Babuwayh, by his chain, from Sayf Bin Umeyra, from Mansour, who has narrated the following:

‘Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘The one who recites Surah Al-Muzzammil (73) in the later part of the evening, or late at night, the night and the day would be two witnesses for him along with Surah Al-Muzzammil, and Allah-azwj would Give him a good life, and Make him die a good death’.[102]

Travel time and Days:

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ حَفْصٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ مَنْ كَانَ مُسَافِراً فَلْيُسَافِرْ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ فَلَوْ أَنَّ حَجَراً زَالَ عَنْ جَبَلٍ يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ لَرَدَّهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ ذِكْرُهُ إِلَى مَوْضِعِهِ وَ مَنْ تَعَذَّرَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْحَوَائِجُ فَلْيَلْتَمِسْ طَلَبَهَا يَوْمَ الثَّلَاثَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ الْيَوْمُ الَّذِي أَلَانَ اللَّهُ فِيهِ الْحَدِيدَ لِدَاوُدَ (عليه السلام).

And by this chain, from Hafs, who has reported the following:

Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘The one who wants to travel so he should do so on the day of Saturday. Even if a stone falls off a mountain on the day of Saturday, Allah-azwj would Return it to its place. And the one who is unable to fulfill his need should seek it on the day of Tuesday, for it is the day in which Allah-azwj Softened the iron for Dawood-as’.[103]

Supplication for Travel:

و من (خواص القرآن): روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله) إنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة كان عيسى (عليه السلام) مصليا عليه و مستغفرا له ما دام في الدنيا، و إن مات كان رفيقه في الآخرة. و من أدمن قراءتها في سفره حفظه الله، و كفي طوارقه حتى يرجع».

And from Khawas Al-Quran –

It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Chapter (61), Isa-as would Pray for him, and seek Forgiveness for him for as long as he stays in the world, and if he were to die, he would be his-as friend in the Hereafter. And the one who habitually recites in his travels, Allah-azwj would Protect him, and Suffice for him in his journey until he returns’.[104]

Ziyarah of Holy Kabah:

ابن بابويه: بإسناده، عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام)، [قال‏]: «من قرأ عم يتساءلون، لم تخرج سنته- إذا كان يدمنها في كل يوم- حتى يزور بيت الله الحرام إن شاء الله تعالى».

Ibn Babuwayh, by his chain,

‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘The one who recites [78] What are they asking about? (Surah Al-Naba), if he is habitually reciting it every day, a year would not go by until he visits the Sacred House of Allah-azwj (Kabah), if Allah-azwj so Desires’.[105]

For Cure from Holy Verses:

و من (خواص القرآن): روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله) أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة كان له من الأجر بعدد كل حرف منها مائة ألف رقبة عتيق، و من قرأها ليلة الجمعة غفر الله له جميع ذنوبه و من كتبها و علقها عليه أمن من كيد الشياطين و من جعلها تحت رأسه رأى في منامه كل خير، و أمن من قلقه في الليل و إذا شرب ماءها صاحب الشقيقة برى‏ء و إذا كتبت و جعلت في موضع فيه تجارة ربح صاحب الموضع، و كثر ماله سريعا».

And from Khawas Al-Quran –

It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Chapter (44), would have for him the Recompense of freeing one hundred thousand slaves for every letter from it. And the one who recites it on the night (before) Friday (Thursday Night), Allah-azwj would Forgive all of his sins. And the one who writes it and attaches it (Amulet) upon himself, would be safe from the plots of Satan-la. And the one who makes it to be under his head would dream everything good, and would be safe from worry during the night. And if its water is drunk by the one with migraine, would be free from it. And if it is written and made to be in a place where trading takes place, the owner of the place would profit and his wealth would increase quickly’.[106]

Supplications for a Divorced Woman:

و قال الصادق (عليه السلام): «من كتبها عند مريض يساق سهل الله عليه جدا، و إذا كتبت و علقت على امرأة مطلقة وضعت في عاجل بإذن الله تعالى».

And Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘The one who writes it (Chapter 51) for the patient in the pangs of death, Allah-azwj would ease it for him. And if it is written and attached (Amulet) upon the divorced woman, she would be placed quickly, by the Permission of Allah-azwj’.[107]

Victory over Enemies:

و من (خواص القرآن): روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله) أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة، كتب أنه ليس من المشركين بالله، و من قرأها في محاكمة بينه و بين أحد قواه الله على خصمه و ظفر به».

And from Khawas Al-Quran –

It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said; ‘The one who recites this Chapter (77), it would be written that he is not from those ‘المشركين بالله’ who associate others with Allah-azwj. And the one who recites this in a trial between him and anyone, Allah-azwj would Strengthen him against his opponent and Make him victorious’.[108]

و قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله): «من قرأها و هو في محاكمة عند قاض أو وال، نصره الله على خصمه».

And the Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The one who recites it whilst he is in the presence of a judge or a ruler, Allah-azwj would Help against his opponent’.[109]

When Fearing an Authority:

و من (خواص القرآن): روي عن النبي (صلى الله عليه و آله) أنه قال: «من قرأ هذه السورة دفع الله عنه موت الفجأة، و من قرأها و دخل على سلطان يخاف بأسه، كفاه الله شره».

And from Khawas Al-Quran –

It has been reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘The one who recites this Surah (Al-Taghabun-chapter 64), Allah-azwj would Repel from him the sudden death. The one who recites it and comes up to an authority and he is fearful of him and is distressed, Allah-azwj would Suffice him from its evil’.[110]

و قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه و آله): «من كتبها و علقها عليه و هو في الحرب لم يصبه سهم و لا حديد، و كان قوي القلب في طلب القتال، و إن قرئت على موضع فيه حديد خرج من وقته من غير ألم».

And Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘The one who writes it, and attaches it (Amulet), and he was in the war, neither an arrow nor iron would hit him, and he would be strong of heart in seeking the battle. And if it is recited upon a place in which there is iron (battle), he would come out immediately from the midst of the difficulty’.[111]
