‘I seek Forgiveness of Allah-azwj Who, there is no god except He-azwj, the Living, the Eternal, and I repent to Him-azwj, a repentance by a servant who is humble, poor, servile, not capable for himself of neither turning (evil) away nor changing, nor benefit, nor harm, nor death nor life, nor Resurrections! And may Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww family‑asws, the goodly the best, the goodly the righteous, and abundant Greetings!’
ثُمَّ يَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ يَا خَالِقَ نُورِ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ مُرْزِغَ قُبُورِ الْعَالَمِينَ وَ دَيَّانَ حَقَائِقِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ وَ الْمَالِكَ لِحُكْمِ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْآخِرِينَ وَ الْمُسَبِّحِينَ وَ الْعَالِمَ بِكُلِّ تَكْوِينٍ
Then he should say, ‘O Allah-azwj! O Creator of the Noor of the Prophets-as, and Illuminator of graves of the worlds, and Judge of realities on the Day of religion (Judgment), and the King of Judging the former ones and the latter ones, and the glorifiers, and the Knower of every created being!
أَشْهَدُ بِعِزَّتِكَ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَ السَّمَاءِ وَ حِجَابِكَ الْمَنِيعِ عَلَى أَهْلِ الطُّغْيَانِ يَا خَالِقَ رُوحِي وَ مُقَدِّرَ قُوتِي وَ الْعَالِمَ بِسِرِّي وَ جَهْرِي لَكَ سُجُودِي وَ عُبُودِي وَ لِعَدُوِّكَ عُنُودِي يَا مَعْبُودِي
I testify by Your-azwj Might in the earth and the sky, Your-azwj Invincible Veil upon the people of tyranny! O Creator of my soul and Determiner of my strength, and the Knower of my secrets and my openness! To You-azwj is my Sajdah and my worship, and to Your-azwj enemy is my hostility, O Deity!
أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ وَحْدَكَ لَا شَرِيكَ لَكَ عَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَ إِلَيْكَ أُنِيبُ وَ أَنْتَ حَسْبِي وَ نِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ:
I testify that, surely, You-azwj are Allah-azwj Who, there is no god except You-azwj Alone! There is no associate for You-azwj. I rely upon You-azwj and to You-azwj I repent, and You-azwj Suffice me and as the best Protector!’
وَ يُسْتَحَبُّ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ فِيهِ سُورَةَ الْمَائِدَةِ وَ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ الْقَدْرَ أَلْفَ مَرَّةٍ وَ يُصَلِّيَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ كَذَلِكَ وَ يَقُولَ اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَجِّلْ فَرَجَهُمْ وَ أَهْلِكْ عَدُوَّهُمْ مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَ الْإِنْسِ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْآخِرِينَ-
And it is recommended that he recites during it (Thursday) Surah Al-Maidah, and he should recite (Surah) Al-Qadr a thousand times, and he should send Salawaat upon the Prophet-azwj like that, and he should say: ‘O Allah-azwj!

وَ مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ حَاجَةٌ فَلْيُبَاكِرْ فِيهَا لِقَوْلِهِ ص اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لِأُمَّتِي فِي بِكُورِهَا
And the one who as a need for him, let him wake up early morning due to his-saww words: ‘O Allah-azwj! Bless my-saww community in its early morning!’
فَإِذَا تَوَجَّهَ قَرَأَ الْحَمْدَ وَ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ وَ الْإِخْلَاصَ وَ الْقَدْرَ وَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ وَ الْخَمْسَ آيَاتٍ مِنْ آخِرِ آلِ عِمْرَانَ
When he concentrates, he should recite (Surahs) Al Hamd, and Al Mawazateyn, and Al Ikhlas, and Al Qadr, and Ayat Al Kursy, and the five Verses from end of (Surah) Aal-e-Imran-as.
ثُمَّ يَقُولُ مَوْلَايَ انْقَطَعَ الرَّجَاءُ إِلَّا مِنْكَ وَ خَابَتِ الْآمَالُ إِلَّا فِيكَ أَسْأَلُكَ إِلَهِي بِحَقِّ مَنْ حَقُّهُ عَلَيْكَ وَاجِبٌ مِمَّنْ جَعَلْتَ لَهُ الْحَقَّ عِنْدَكَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تَقْضِيَ حَاجَتِي.
Then he should say, ‘My Master-azwj! The hopes are cut off except from You-azwj, and the aspirations are disappointed except in You-azwj! I ask You-azwj, my God-azwj, by the right of the one whose right is obligated upon You-azwj, from the ones You-azwj have Made the right to be for him in Your-azwj Presence, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Fulfill my need!’’[4]
تبيان عنهم ع نحن و الله نعمة الله التي أنعم بها على عباده.
Clarification (Ahadeeth only) – From them-asws: ‘By Allah-azwj! We-asws are a bounty of Allah-azwj which He-azwj has Favoured with upon His-azwj servants!
و في خبر الصحيفة و نعمة الله محمد و أهل بيته حبهم إيمان يدخل الجنة و بغضهم كفر و نفاق يدخل النار.
And in a Hadeeth of ‘Al Saheefa’ – ‘And a bounty of Allah-azwj is Muhammad-saww and People‑asws of his-saww Household. Loving them-asws is Eman and he will enter the Paradise, and hating them-asws is Kufr and hypocrisy, he will enter the Hellfire!’
وَ رُوِيَ أَنَّ ذَا الرِّئَاسَتَيْنِ الْفَضْلَ بْنَ سَهْلٍ سَأَلَ الرِّضَا ع عَمَّا اخْتَلَفَ النَّاسُ فِيهِ مِنَ الرُّؤْيَةِ فَقَالَ ع مَنْ وَصَفَ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى بِخِلَافِ مَا وَصَفَ بِهِ نَفْسَهُ فَقَدْ أَعْظَمَ الْفِرْيَةَ عَلَى اللَّهِ لا تُدْرِكُهُ الْأَبْصارُ أَيِ الْأَبْصَارُ الَّتِي فِي الْقُلُوبِ وَ لَيْسَتْ هِيَ الْأَعْيُنَ أَيْ لَا يَقَعُ عَلَيْهِ الْأَوْهَامُ وَ لَا يُدْرَكُ كَيْفَ هُوَ.
And it is reported that Zul Riyasateyn, Al Fazl Bin Sahl, asked (Imam) Al-Reza-asws about what reports the people were differing in. He-asws said: ‘One who describes Allah-azwj the Exalted with different to what He-azwj has Described Himself-azwj with, so he has committed the mightiest of lies upon Allah-azwj! The sights cannot realise Him-azwj, i.e. the sights which are in the hearts, and these aren’t the eyes, i.e., the imaginations cannot occur upon Him-azwj nor can one realise how He-azwj is!’’

دُعَاءُ يَوْمِ السَّبْتِ- يَقْرَأُ الْإِخْلَاصَ وَ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ وَ بَعْدَهُ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ الم ذلِكَ الْكِتابُ لا رَيْبَ فِيهِ هُدىً لِلْمُتَّقِينَ كهيعص ذِكْرُ رَحْمَتِ رَبِّكَ عَبْدَهُ زَكَرِيَّا فَإِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ حَسْبِيَ اللَّهُ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا هُوَ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَ هُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ
A supplication on the day of Saturday – He should recited Surah(s) Al Ikhlas, and Al Mawazateyn, and after it, ‘Alif Lam Meem [2:1] That is the Book.

اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ قُلْتَ فِي كِتَابِكَ ما يَفْتَحِ اللَّهُ لِلنَّاسِ مِنْ رَحْمَةٍ فَلا مُمْسِكَ لَها وَ ما يُمْسِكْ فَلا مُرْسِلَ لَهُ مِنْ بَعْدِهِ وَ هُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ وَ بِكَ آمَنْتُ وَ صَدَّقْتُ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّهُ لَا مُمْسِكَ لِمَا تَفْتَحُهُ مِنْ رَحْمَتِكَ

عُوذَةُ يَوْمِ السَّبْتِ أُعِيذُ نَفْسِي وَ دِينِي وَ جَمِيعِ إِخْوَانِيَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ وَ مَا رَزَقَنِي رَبِّي بِالْحَمْدِ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ إِلَى آخِرِهَا وَ بِ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ إِلَى آخِرِهَا وَ بِ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ إِلَى آخِرِهَا وَ بِ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ إِلَى آخِرِهَا وَ كَذَلِكَ اللَّهُ رَبُّنَا وَ سَيِّدُنَا
An amulet (Taweez) on the day of Saturday – ‘I seek Refuge for myself, and my religion, and entirety of my brethren, the believing men and the believing women, and whatever my Lord‑azwj has Graced me, with Surah Al Hamd up to its end, and with Surah Al Naas up to its end, and with Surah Al Falaq up to its end, and with Surah Al Tawheed up to its end, and (saying) ‘Like that is our Lord-azwj and our Master!
لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ نُورُ النُّورِ وَ مُدَبِّرُ النُّورِ نُورُ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ مَثَلُ نُورِهِ كَمِشْكاةٍ فِيها مِصْباحٌ الْمِصْباحُ فِي زُجاجَةٍ الزُّجاجَةُ كَأَنَّها كَوْكَبٌ دُرِّيٌّ يُوقَدُ مِنْ شَجَرَةٍ مُبارَكَةٍ زَيْتُونَةٍ لا شَرْقِيَّةٍ وَ لا غَرْبِيَّةٍ يَكادُ زَيْتُها يُضِيءُ وَ لَوْ لَمْ تَمْسَسْهُ نارٌ نُورٌ عَلى نُورٍ يَهْدِي اللَّهُ لِنُورِهِ مَنْ يَشاءُ وَ يَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الْأَمْثالَ لِلنَّاسِ وَ اللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ-
There is no god except He-azwj, the Light of the light, and Manager of the light, Light of the skies and the earth. An example of His Light is like a niche wherein is a lamp, the lamp is in a glass, and the glass is as if it is a brightly shining star ignited from a Blessed tree of olives, neither eastern nor western. Its oil almost illuminates and even though fire does not touch it. Light upon Light. Allah Guides to His Light ones He so Desires to, and Allah Strikes examples for the people, and Allah is Knowing of all things [24:35].
الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضَ بِالْحَقِّ وَ يَوْمَ يَقُولُ كُنْ فَيَكُونُ قَوْلُهُ الْحَقُّ وَ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ يَوْمَ يُنْفَخُ فِي الصُّورِ عالِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَ الشَّهادَةِ وَ هُوَ الْحَكِيمُ الْخَبِيرُ-
And He is the One Who Created the skies and the earth with the Truth; and on the day He says: “Be!”, so it comes into being. His word is the Truth, and for Him is the Kingdom on the day it shall be blown into the trumpet. Knower of the unseen and the seen; and He is the Wise, the Aware [6:73].
إِنَّ رَبَّكُمُ اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضَ فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ ثُمَّ اسْتَوى عَلَى الْعَرْشِ يُغْشِي اللَّيْلَ النَّهارَ يَطْلُبُهُ حَثِيثاً وَ الشَّمْسَ وَ الْقَمَرَ وَ النُّجُومَ مُسَخَّراتٍ بِأَمْرِهِ أَلا لَهُ الْخَلْقُ وَ الْأَمْرُ تَبارَكَ اللَّهُ رَبُّ الْعالَمِينَ
Surely, your Lord is Allah Who Created the skies and the earth in six days, then Established upon the Throne; He Covers the night over the day, which it pursues incessantly; and the sun and the moon and the stars, made subservient by His Command. Indeed, for Him is the Creation and the Command. Blessed is Allah, Lord of the worlds [7:54].
وَ أُعِيذُ نَفْسِي وَ جَمِيعَ إِخْوَانِيَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ بِاللَّهِ الَّذِي خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَماواتٍ طِباقاً وَ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ مِثْلَهُنَّ يَتَنَزَّلُ الْأَمْرُ بَيْنَهُنَّ لِتَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ أَحاطَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عِلْماً وَ أَحْصى كُلَّ شَيْءٍ عَدَداً
And I seek Refuge for myself and entirety of my brethren, the believing men and the believing women, with Allah-azwj Who Created the seven skies as layers. [67:3]. Allah is the One Who Created the seven skies, and from the earth similar to these. The Command descends between these for you to know that Allah is Able upon all things, and that Allah has Encompassed with all things in Knowledge [65:12] and He Counts the number of all things [72:28].
مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ ذِي شَرٍّ مُعْلِنٍ بِهِ أَوْ مُسِرٍّ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ الْجِنَّةِ وَ الْبَشَرِ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا يَطِيرُ بِاللَّيْلِ وَ يَسْكُنُ بِالنَّهَارِ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ طَوَارِقِ اللَّيْلِ وَ النَّهَارِ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا يَسْكُنُ الْحَمَّامَاتِ وَ الْخَرَابَاتِ وَ الْأَوْدِيَةَ وَ الصَّحَارِيَ وَ الْغِيَاضَ وَ الْأَشْجَارَ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا يَكُونُ فِي الْأَنْهَارِ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا يَكُونُ فِي الْآجَامِ وَ الْبِحَارِ
(I seek Refuge) from evil of all with evil being open with it or secretive, and from evil of the Jinn and the humans, and from evil of what flies at night and is calm at daytime, and from evil of the knocker at night and day, and from evil what settles in the caves, and the ruins, and the valleys, and the deserts, and the flooded lands, and the trees, and from evil of what happens in the rivers, and from evil of what happen in the jungles, and the oceans!
وَ أُعِيذُ نَفْسِي وَ جَمِيعَ مَا رَزَقَنِي رَبِّي وَ مَنْ يَعْنِينِي أَمْرُهُ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ بِاللَّهِ مَالِكِ الْمُلْكِ يُؤْتِي الْمُلْكَ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَ يَنْزِعُ الْمُلْكَ مِمَّنْ يَشَاءُ وَ يُعِزُّ مَنْ يَشَاءُ وَ يُذِلُّ مَنْ يَشَاءُ بِيَدِهِ الْخَيْرُ وَ هُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
And I seek Refuge for myself and entirety of what my Lord-azwj has Graced me, and the ones whose matter concerns me from the believing men and the believing women, with Allah-azwj Owner of the Kingdom! He-azwj Gives the Kingdom to the one He-azwj so Desires to and Snatches the kingdom from the one He-azwj so Desires to, and He-azwj Honours the one He-azwj so Desires to, and Humiliates the one He-azwj so Desires to. The good is in His-azwj Hand, and He-azwj is Able upon all things!
يُولِجُ اللَّيْلَ فِي النَّهَارِ وَ يُولِجُ النَّهَارَ فِي اللَّيْلِ وَ يُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ وَ يُخْرِجُ الْمَيِّتَ مِنَ الْحَيِّ وَ يَرْزُقُ مَنْ يَشَاءُ بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ
He-azwj Permeates the night into the day and He-azwj Permeates the day into the night, and He‑azwj Extracts the living from the death and Extracts the dead from the living, and He-azwj Graces the one He-azwj so Desires to without measure!
لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَيْءٌ وَ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْبَصِيرُ لَهُ مَقالِيدُ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ يَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ يَشاءُ وَ يَقْدِرُ إِنَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ:
There isn’t anything like Him, and He is the Hearing, the Seeing [42:11] For Him are the reins of the skies and the earth. He Extends the sustenance for one He so Desires to and Straitens. He is Knowing with all things [42:12].
أُعِيذُ نَفْسِي وَ دِينِي وَ إِخْوَانِي بِاللَّهِ الَّذِي خَلَقَ الْأَرْضَ وَ السَّماواتِ الْعُلى الرَّحْمنُ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ اسْتَوى لَهُ ما فِي السَّماواتِ وَ ما فِي الْأَرْضِ وَ ما بَيْنَهُما وَ ما تَحْتَ الثَّرى
I seek Refuge for myself, and my religion, and my brethren, with Allah-azwj Who Created the earth and the skies above [20:4] The Beneficent, Established upon the Throne [20:5] For Him is whatever is in the skies and whatever is in the earth and whatever is between the two and whatever is beneath the soil [20:6].
وَ إِنْ تَجْهَرْ بِالْقَوْلِ فَإِنَّهُ يَعْلَمُ السِّرَّ وَ أَخْفى اللَّهُ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا هُوَ لَهُ الْأَسْماءُ الْحُسْنى
And if you are loud with the speech, so He Knows the secret and the concealed (matters) [20:7] Allah, there is no god except Him. For Him are the most Beautiful Names [20:8].
أَلا لَهُ الْخَلْقُ وَ الْأَمْرُ تَبارَكَ اللَّهُ رَبُّ الْعالَمِينَ ادْعُوا رَبَّكُمْ تَضَرُّعاً وَ خُفْيَةً إِنَّهُ لا يُحِبُّ الْمُعْتَدِينَ وَ لا تُفْسِدُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ بَعْدَ إِصْلاحِها وَ ادْعُوهُ خَوْفاً وَ طَمَعاً إِنَّ رَحْمَتَ اللَّهِ قَرِيبٌ مِنَ الْمُحْسِنِينَ
Indeed, for Him is the Creation and the Command. Blessed is Allah, Lord of the worlds [7:54] Call your Lord beseeching and secretly, surely He does not Love the aggressors [7:55] And do not make mischief in the earth after it has been set in order, and supplicate to Him fearing and wishing; surely the Mercy of Allah is close to the good doers [7:56].
أُعِيذُ نَفْسِي وَ مَا رَزَقَنِي رَبِّي وَ جَمِيعَ إِخْوَانِيَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ بِاللَّهِ الْمُنْزِلِ التَّوْرَاةِ وَ الْإِنْجِيلِ وَ الزَّبُورِ وَ الْفُرْقَانِ الْعَظِيمِ مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ بَاغٍ وَ طَاغٍ وَ نَافِثٍ وَ نَاكِسٍ وَ شَيْطَانٍ وَ سُلْطَانٍ وَ سَاحِرٍ وَ كَاهِنٍ وَ ظَاهِرٍ وَ بَاطِنٍ وَ نَاطِقٍ وَ طَارِقٍ وَ مُتَحَرِّكٍ وَ سَاكِنٍ وَ مُتَخَيِّلٍ وَ مُتَكَوِّنٍ وَ مُخِيفٍ

And Glory be to Allah-azwj, my Guardian, and my Helper, and my Comforter, and He-azwj defends me! There is neither any associate for Him-azwj, nor any honourer for the one, He-azwj Humiliates, nor any humiliator for the one, He-azwj Honours, and He-azwj is the One, the Subduer! And may Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws in their entirety!’’[18]

And Allah-azwj will Give him a castle of white gems in the gardens of Al-Firdows, in the middle of that castle will be seven houses, the length of each house is of three thousand cubits, its width being similar to that. The first house is of silver, and the second of gold, and the third of pearls, and the fourth of topaz, and the fifth of sapphire, and the sixth of gems, and the seventh of sparkling Noor (Light)!
وَ أَبْوَابُ الْبُيُوتِ مِنَ الْعَنْبَرِ عَلَى كُلِّ بَابٍ سِتْرٌ مِنَ الزَّعْفَرَانِ فِي كُلِّ بَيْتٍ أَلْفُ سَرِيرٍ عَلَى كُلِّ سَرِيرٍ أَلْفُ فِرَاشٍ فَوْقَ كُلِّ فِرَاشٍ حَوْرَاءُ جَعَلَهَا اللَّهُ مِنْ طَيِّبِ الطِّيبِ مِنْ لَدُنْ أَصَابِعِ رِجْلَيْهَا إِلَى رُكْبَتَيْهَا مِنَ الزَّعْفَرَانِ وَ مِنْ لَدُنْ رُكْبَتَيْهَا إِلَى ثَدْيَيْهَا مِنَ الْمِسْكِ وَ مِنْ لَدُنْ ثَدْيَيْهَا إِلَى رَقَبَتِهَا إِلَى مَفْرِقِ رَأْسِهَا مِنَ الْكَافُورِ الْأَبْيَضِ
And the doors of the houses are of Ambergris, upon each door is a curtain of saffron, in each house there are thousand thrones, upon each throne there are a thousand beds, upon each bed is a Hourie. Allah-azwj has Made her from best of the bed from the toes of her feet up to her knees is of Saffron, and from her knees to her chest is of Musk, and from her chest to her neck to the joints of her head is of white camphor.
عَلَى كُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ حُلَّةٍ مِنْ حُلَلِ الْجَنَّةِ كَأَحْسَنِ مَنْ رَآهُنَّ إِذَا أَقْبَلَتْ إِلَى زَوْجِهَا كَأَنَّهَا الشَّمْسُ بَدَتْ لِلنَّاظِرِينَ لِكُلِّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُنَّ ثَلَاثُونَ ذُؤَابَةً مِنْ مِسْكٍ فِي رَوْضِ الْجَنَّةِ بَيْنَ مِسْكٍ وَ زَعْفَرَانٍ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ كُلِّ حُورِيَّةٍ أَلْفُ وَصِيفَةٍ ذَلِكَ الثَّوَابُ لِأَوْلِيَاءِ اللَّهِ جَزاءً بِما كانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ.
Upon each one of these are seventy thousand garments of Paradise as excellent as one has seen. When she comes to her husband, it is as if the sun has appeared to the beholder. For each one of them are thirty riding animals of musk in an orchard of Paradise, between musk and saffron. In front of each Hourie are a thousand bridesmaids. That is the Rewards of the friends of Allah-azwj, a Recompense for what they had been doing’’.[32]

The first of what Rewards he will be Given on the Day of Qiyamah is a thousand garments, and crowned with a crown, and it will be said to him, ‘Pass with the truthful and the martyrs!’ He will enter the Paradise and will be received by a thousand Angels, there being cups and drinks in the hand of each Angels. They will quench him from that drink and he will eat from those gifts.

صَلَاةٌ أُخْرَى لِيَوْمِ الْأَرْبِعَاءِ قَالَ ص مَنْ صَلَّى يَوْمَ الْأَرْبِعَاءِ اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً يَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ مَرَّةً وَ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ كُلَّ وَاحِدَةٍ نَادَى مُنَادٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ الْعَرْشِ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ اسْتَأْنِفِ الْعَمَلَ فَقَدْ غُفِرَ لَكَ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِكَ وَ مَا تَأَخَّرَ تَمَامَ الْخَبَرِ-.
Another Salat for the day of Wednesday – He-saww said: ‘One who prays twelve Cycles on the day of Wednesday, reciting in each Cycle (Surah) Al Fatiha once, and Al Tawheed three times, and Al Mawazateyn three times, each time a caller will call out from the Throne: ‘O servant of Allah-azwj!

صَلَاةٌ أُخْرَى لِيَوْمِ الْأَرْبِعَاءِ وَ هِيَ عِشْرُونَ رَكْعَةً تَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ وَ سُورَةً فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ فَسَبِّحِ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى وَ احْمَدْهُ وَ هَلِّلْهُ كَثِيراً-.
Another Salat for the day of Wednesday, and it is of ten Cycles. You should recite in each Cycle Surah Al Fatiha, and a (another) Surah. When you are free from the Salat, then glorify Allah‑azwj the Exalted and praise Him-azwj, and extol His-azwj Oneness a lot!’’[58]
الدُّعَاءُ فِي يَوْمِ الْأَرْبِعَاءِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ سُؤَالَ مُلِحٍّ لَا يَمَلُّ دُعَاءَ رَبِّهِ وَ أَتَضَرَّعُ إِلَيْكَ تَضَرُّعَ غَرِيقٍ يَرْجُوكَ لِكَشْفِ كَرْبِهِ وَ أَبْتَهِلُ إِلَيْكَ ابْتِهَالَ تَائِبٍ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ وَ أَنْتَ الرَّءُوفُ الَّذِي مَلَكْتَ الْخَلَائِقَ كُلَّهُمْ وَ فَطَرْتَهُمْ أَجْنَاساً مُخْتَلِفَاتِ الْأَلْوَانِ عَلَى مَشِيَّتِكَ وَ قَدَّرْتَ آجَالَهُمْ وَ قَسَمْتَ أَرْزَاقَهُمْ
The supplication during the day of Wednesday – ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent, the Merciful! O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj asking by the insistent, not getting tired of supplicating to his Lord-azwj, and I beseech to You-azwj beseeching by a drowning one hoping to You-azwj to Remove his distress, and pleading to You-azwj pleading of one repenting from his sins, and You‑azwj are the Kind Who Controls the creatures, all of them, and You-azwj Originated them as species of different types based upon Your-azwj Desire, and You-azwj Determined their terms, and Apportioned their sustenance.
فَلَمْ يَتَعَاظَمْكَ خَلْقُ خَلْقٍ حَتَّى كَوَّنْتَهُ بِمَا شِئْتَ مُخْتَلِفاً كَمَا شِئْتَ فَتَعَالَيْتَ وَ تَجَبَّرْتَ عَنِ اتِّخَاذِ وَزِيرٍ وَ تَعَزَّزْتَ عَنْ مُؤَامَرَةِ شَرِيكٍ وَ تَنَزَّهْتَ عَنِ اتِّخَاذِ الْأَبْنَاءِ وَ تَقَدَّسْتَ مِنْ مُلَامَسَةِ النِّسَاءِ
The creating of a creation did not magnify You-azwj until You-azwj had Brought it into being with whatever You-azwj Desired differently just as You-azwj Desired! You-azwj are Exalted from taking a minister, and Mightier than instructed by a partner, and removed from taking the sons, and Holier than to touch the women!
فَلَيْسَتِ الْأَبْصَارُ بِمُدْرِكَةٍ لَكَ وَ لَا الْأَوْهَامُ بِوَاقِعَةٍ عَلَيْكَ وَ لَيْسَ لَكَ شَبِيهٌ وَ لَا عَدِيلٌ وَ لَا نِدٌّ وَ لَا نَظِيرٌ وَ أَنْتَ الْفَرْدُ الْوَاحِدُ الدَّائِمُ الْأَوَّلُ الْآخِرُ الْعَالِمُ الْأَحَدُ الصَّمَدُ الْقَائِمُ الَّذِي لَمْ يَلِدْ وَ لَمْ يُولَدْ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُواً أَحَدٌ
The sights aren’t going to realise You-azwj nor can the imaginations occur upon You-azwj and there is neither any resemblance for You-azwj, nor any equal, nor opposer, nor match, and You‑azwj are the Individual, the One, the permanent, the First, the Last, the Knowing, the First, the Solid, the Eternal Who does not beget nor was begotten and there does not happen to be anyone a match for Him-azwj!
لَا تُنَالُ بِوَصْفٍ وَ لَا تُدْرَكُ بِحِسٍّ وَ لَا تُغَيِّرُكَ مِنَ الدُّهُورِ صُرُوفُ زَمَانٍ أَزَلِيٌّ لَمْ تَزَلْ وَ لَا تَزَالُ عِلْمُكَ بِالْأَشْيَاءِ فِي الْخَفَاءِ كَعِلْمِكَ بِهَا فِي الْإِجْهَارِ وَ الْإِعْلَانِ
Neither can You-azwj be attained by a description, nor realised by perception, nor can the times of ages change You-azwj! You-azwj are eternal and will not cease to be. Your-azwj Knowledge with the things regarding the hidden matters is like Your-azwj Knowledge of these in the loudness and the openness!
فَيَا مَنْ ذَلَّ لِعَظَمَتِهِ الْعُظَمَاءُ وَ خَضَعَتْ لِعِزَّتِهِ الرُّؤَسَاءُ وَ مَنْ كَلَّتْ عَنْ بُلُوغِ ذَاتِهِ أَلْسُنُ الْبُلَغَاءِ وَ مَنِ استحكم بتدبير [اسْتَحْكَمَتْ بِتَدْبِيرِهِ] الْأَشْيَاءُ وَ اسْتَعْجَمَتْ عَنْ إِدْرَاكِهِ عِبَارَةُ عُلُومِ الْعُلَمَاءِ
O One to Whom the mighty ones are disgraced, and the chiefs are humbled to His-azwj Might, and the One the eloquent tongues are lacking from reaching His-azwj Self, and the One Who Control the management of the things, and the expressions of the knowledge of the scholars are muted from realising Him-azwj!
أَ تُعَذِّبُنِي بِالنَّارِ وَ أَنْتَ أَمَلِي وَ تُسَلِّطُهَا عَلَيَّ بَعْدَ إِقْرَارِي لَكَ بِالتَّوْحِيدِ وَ خُضُوعِي وَ خُشُوعِي لَكَ بِالسُّجُودِ وَ تَلَجْلُجِ لِسَانِي بِالتَّوْقِيفِ وَ قَدْ مَهَّدْتَ لِي مِنْكَ سَبِيلَ الْوُصُولِ إِلَى رَجَاءِ الْمُتَحَيِّرِينَ بِالتَّحْمِيدِ وَ التَّسْبِيحِ
Will You-azwj Punish me with the Hellfire and You-azwj are my aspiration, and Prevail it upon me after my acceptance to You-azwj with the Oneness, and my humbleness and my fearfulness to You-azwj with the prostrations, and stuttering of my tongue with the inclination, and You-azwj have Paved from You-azwj the way for me for arriving to hopes of those who are perplexed with the praise and the glorification!
فَيَا غَايَةَ الطَّالِبِينَ وَ أَمَانَ الْخَائِفِينَ وَ عِمَادَ الْمَلْهُوفِينَ وَ غِيَاثَ الْمُسْتَغِيثِينَ وَ جَارَ الْمُسْتَجِيرِينَ وَ كَاشِفَ الضُّرِّ عَنِ الْمَكْرُوبِينَ وَ رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ وَ أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ صَلِّ يَا رَبِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ الطَّاهِرِينَ وَ اجْعَلْنِي مِنَ الْأَوَّابِينَ الْفَائِزِينَ:
O peak of the seekers, and security of the fearful, and pillar of the anxious, and help of the seekers of help, and shelter of the shelter seekers, and remover of the harm from the distressed, and Lord-azwj of the worlds, and most Merciful of the Merciful ones! O Lord-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww pure Progeny-asws, and make me from the penitent, the successful ones!
إِلَهِي إِنْ كُنْتَ كَتَبْتَنِي شَقِيّاً عِنْدَكَ فَإِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِمَعَاقِدِ الْعِزِّ وَ الْكِبْرِيَاءِ وَ الْعَظَمَةِ الَّتِي لَا يُقَاوِمُهَا عَظِيمٌ وَ لَا مُتَكَبِّرٌ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تُحَوِّلَنِي سَعِيداً فَإِنَّكَ تُجْرِي الْأُمُورَ عَلَى إِرَادَتِكَ وَ تُجِيرُ وَ لَا يُجَارُ عَلَيْكَ
My God-azwj! If You-azwj have Written me as being a wretch, I ask You-azwj for the seat of honour and the greatness and the magnificence which no mighty one nor any arrogant one can withstand, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Transfer me as being fortunate, for You-azwj Flow the matters upon Your-azwj Will and You‑azwj Shelter and cannot be sheltered against!
يَا قَدِيرُ وَ أَنْتَ رَءُوفٌ رَحِيمٌ خَبِيرٌ بَصِيرٌ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ تَعْلَمُ ما فِي نَفْسِي وَ لا أَعْلَمُ ما فِي نَفْسِكَ وَ أَنْتَ عَلَّامُ الْغُيُوبِ وَ الْطُفْ لِي يَا رَبِّ فَقَدِيماً لَطُفْتَ لَمُسْرِفٍ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ غَرِيقٍ فِي بُحُورِ خَطِيئَتِهِ قَدْ أَسْلَمَتْهُ لِلْحُتُوفِ كَثْرَةُ زَلَلِهِ
O Able, and You-azwj are Kind, Merciful, Informed, Insightful, Knower, Wise! You-azwj Know what is in my soul and I don’t know what is in Your-azwj Self, and You-azwj are Knower of the unseen, and the gentleness for me, O Lord-azwj, for You-azwj have been Compassionate anciently to one extravagant upon himself, one drowning in the oceans of his own sins, the abundance of his slips has submitted him for the Forgiveness!
وَ تَطَوَّلْ عَلَيَّ يَا مُتَطَوِّلًا عَلَى الْمُذْنِبِينَ بِالْعَفْوِ وَ الصَّفْحِ فَلَمْ تَزَلْ آخِذاً بِالصَّفْحِ وَ الْفَضْلِ عَلَى الْمُسْرِفِينَ مِمَّنْ وَجَبَ لَهُ بِاجْتِرَائِهِ عَلَى الْآثَامِ حُلُولُ دَارِ الْبَوَارِ
And be Lenient upon me, O Lenient upon the sinners with the Pardon and the Excusing! You‑azwj have not ceased to be generous with forgiveness and benevolence towards the transgressors, the one for whom obligated entered the house of ruination due to his transgressions!
يَا عَالِمَ السِّرِّ وَ الْخَفِيَّاتِ يَا قَاهِرُ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ ارْزُقْنِي مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْوَاسِعِ رِزْقاً وَاسِعاً حَلَالًا طَيِّباً سَائِغاً هَنِيئاً مَرِيئاً فِي يُسْرٍ مِنْكَ وَ عَافِيَةٍ إِنَّكَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
O Knower of the secrets and the hidden matters! O Subduer! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and Grace me vast sustenance from Your-azwj vast Grace, Permissible, goodly, abundant, welcoming, pleasant, in ease from You‑azwj and well-being, surely You-azwj are Able upon all things!
وَ مَا أَلْزَمْتَنِيهِ يَا إِلَهِي مِنْ فَرْضِ الْآبَاءِ وَ الْأُمَّهَاتِ وَ الْإِخْوَةِ وَ الْأَخَوَاتِ وَ مِنْ وَاجِبِ حُقُوقِهِمْ فَصَلِّ يَا رَبِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ وَ تَحَمَّلْ ذَلِكَ عَنِّي إِلَيْهِمْ وَ أَدِّهِ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَ الْإِكْرَامِ وَ اغْفِرْ لِي وَ لَهُمْ وَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ إِنَّكَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ أَجْمَعِينَ وَ بَعْدَهُ فِي شُكْرِ النِّعْمَةِ
O my God-azwj, and whatever You-azwj have necessitated me from obligations of the fathers and the mothers, and the brothers and the sisters, and from their obligatory rights, so Send Salawaat, O Lord-azwj, upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws, and Carry that on my behalf to them, and Fulfill it, O with the Majesty and the Benevolence, and Forgive for me and for them, and for the believing men and the believing women, You-azwj are Able upon all things! And may Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww entire Progeny‑asws, and after it in thanking for the bounties!
اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ قُلْتَ فِي كِتَابِكَ ذلِكَ بِأَنَّ اللَّهَ لَمْ يَكُ مُغَيِّراً نِعْمَةً أَنْعَمَها عَلى قَوْمٍ حَتَّى يُغَيِّرُوا ما بِأَنْفُسِهِمْ
O Allah-azwj! For You-azwj is the Praise! There is no god except You-azwj. You-azwj Said in Your-azwj Book: That is because Allah does not Change a Favour He has Favoured upon a people until they change what is with themselves, [8:53].
فَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَ صَدَّقْتُ فَمَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَحْفَظُ مَا بِنَفْسِهِ وَ يَمْنَعُ مِنَ التَّغْيِيرِ بِحَوْلِهِ وَ قُوَّتِهِ إِنْ أَنْتَ لَمْ تَعْصِمْهُ فَصِلْ حَبْلَ عِصْمَتِي بِكَرَمِكَ حَتَّى لَا أُغَيِّرَ مَا بِنَفْسِي مِنْ طَاعَتِكَ فَيُغَيَّرَ مَا بِي مِنْ نِعْمَتِكَ فَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّومُ وَ صَلِّ عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ النَّبِيِّ وَ عِتْرَتِهِ وَ سَلَّمَ تَسْلِيماً-.
I have believed in You-azwj and have ratified, so who is that who can protect what is with himself, and prevent from the changes by his might and his strength, if You-azwj don’t Protect him? So, Connect the rope of my protection with Your-azwj Benevolence until I cannot change what is with myself from obeying You-azwj, so it would change whatever is with me of Your-azwj bounties! For You-azwj is the Praise, O living, O Eternal, and Send Salawaat upon our chief Muhammad-saww the Prophet-saww, and his-saww offspring, and abundant Greetings!’’[59]

وَ أَعُوذُ بِالْفَرْدِ الْأَكْبَرِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَنْ أَرَادَنِي بِسُوءٍ أَوْ بِأَمْرٍ عَسِيرٍ
And I seek Refuge with the Individual, the Greatest, from evil of the one intending me with evil, or with a difficult matter!
اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اجْعَلْنِي فِي جِوَارِكَ الْمَنِيعِ وَ حِصْنِكَ الْحَصِينِ يَا عَزِيزُ يَا جُبَارُ اللَّهُ اللَّهُ اللَّهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص

أَنَا فِي جِوَارِ اللَّهِ وَ اللَّهُ الْوَاحِدُ الْقَهَّارُ هُوَ اللَّهُ الْفَرْدُ الْوَتْرُ الْجَبَّارُ بِهِ وَ بِأَسْمَائِهِ أَحْرَزْتُ نَفْسِي وَ إِخْوَانِي وَ مَا أَنْعَمَ بِهِ عَلَيَّ رَبِّي وَ نَحْنُ فِي جِوَارِ اللَّهِ
I am in the Shelter of Allah-azwj, and Allah-azwj is the One, the Compeller! He-azwj is Allah-azwj the Individual, the Single, the Compeller! I seek guarding for myself with Him-azwj and with His-azwj Names, and for my brethren, and what my Lord-azwj has Favoured with upon me, and we are in the Shelter of Allah-azwj!

الصَّلَاةُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْخَمِيسِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص- مَنْ صَلَّى لَيْلَةَ الْخَمِيسِ سِتَّ رَكَعَاتٍ يَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ وَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ وَ قُلْ يا أَيُّهَا الْكافِرُونَ مَرَّةً مَرَّةً وَ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَإِذَا سَلَّمَ قَرَأَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَإِنْ كَانَ مَكْتُوباً عِنْدَ اللَّهِ شَقِيّاً بَعَثَ اللَّهُ مَلَكاً لِيَمْحُوَ شَقْوَتَهُ وَ يَكْتُبَ مَكَانَهُ سَعَادَتَهُ وَ ذَلِكَ قَوْلُهُ يَمْحُوا اللَّهُ ما يَشاءُ وَ يُثْبِتُ وَ عِنْدَهُ أُمُّ الْكِتابِ.

صَلَاةٌ أُخْرَى لَيْلَةَ الْخَمِيسِ رَوَى ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص أَنَّهُ قَالَ: مَنْ صَلَّى لَيْلَةَ الْخَمِيسِ بَيْنَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَ الْعِشَاءِ الْآخِرَةِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ يَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ وَ يُرْوَى مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً وَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ وَ قُلْ يا أَيُّهَا الْكافِرُونَ وَ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ وَ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ كُلَّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهَا خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً فَإِذَا فَرَغَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ اسْتَغْفَرَ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً وَ جَعَلَ ثَوَابَهُ لِوَالِدَيْهِ فَقَدْ أَدَّى حَقَّ وَالِدَيْهِ وَ يَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْ ثَوَابَهَا لِوَالِدَيَّ-
Another Salat for the night of Thursday – It is reported by Ibn Masoud, from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘One who prays two Cycles on the night of Thursday between Al-Maghrib and Al-Isha (Salat), reciting in each Cycle Surah Al Fatiha one hundred times’ (and it is narrated, one time), and Ayat Al Kursy five times, and Al Kafiroun and Al Tawheed and Al Mawazateyn, each one of these fifteen times, so when he is free from his salat, he should seek Forgiveness of Allah-azwj the Exalted fifteen times, and makes its Rewards for his parent, so he has fulfilled the right of his parents, and he should say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Make its Rewards for my parents!’
فَإِذَا فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ أَدَّى حَقَّهَا وَ أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ مَا أَعْطَى الشُّهَدَاءَ وَ إِذَا مَرَّ عَلَى الصِّرَاطِ كَانَ مَلَكٌ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَ مَلَكٌ عَنْ شِمَالِهِ وَ يُشَيِّعُونَهُ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ وَ التَّهْلِيلِ حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ الْجَنَّةَ
When he does that, he has fulfilled its rights, and Allah-azwj will Give him what He-azwj Gives the martyrs, and when he passed upon the Bridge there would be an Angel on his right, and an Angel on his left, and they would escort him from his front with the exclamations of Takbeer, and extollations of the Oneness, until he enters the Paradise.
وَ يَنْزِلَ فِي قُبَّةٍ بَيْضَاءَ فِيهَا بَيْتٌ مِنْ زُمُرُّدٍ أَخْضَرَ سَعَةُ ذَلِكَ الْبَيْتِ كَأَوْسَعِ مَدِينَةٍ فِي الدُّنْيَا سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ فِي كُلِّ بَيْتٍ سَرِيرٌ مِنْ نُورٍ قَوَائِمُ ذَلِكَ السَّرِيرِ مِنَ الْعَنْبَرِ الْأَشْهَبِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ السَّرِيرِ أَلْفُ فِرَاشٍ مِنَ الزَّعْفَرَانِ فَوْقَ ذَلِكَ الْفِرَاشِ حَوْرَاءُ مِنْ نُورٍ عَلَيْهَا سَبْعُونَ أَلْفَ حُلَّةٍ مِنْ نُورٍ يُرَى النُّورُ مِنْ جِسْمِهَا مِنْ وَرَاءِ ذَلِكَ الْحُلَلِ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا ذَوَائِبُ قَدْ جَلَّلَتْهَا بِالدُّرِّ وَ الْيَاقُوتِ
And he will descend in a white dome where is a house of green emeralds. The vastness of that house is like vastness of a city in the world seven times. In each house there is a throne of light. The legs of that throne are of grey ambergris. Upon that throne are a thousand beds of saffron. Above that bed is a Hourie of light. Upon her are seventy thousand garments of light. The light of her body can be seen through that garment. Upon her head are forelocks plaited with the gems and the sapphire.
إِذَا تَبَسَّمَتْ مَعَ زَوْجِهَا خَرَجَ مِنْ فِيهَا نُورٌ يَتَعَجَّبُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ أَهْلُ الْجَنَّةِ حَتَّى يَقُولُونَ مَا هَذَا النُّورُ لَعَلَّهُ اطَّلَعَ عَلَيْنَا الْبَارِي سُبْحَانَهُ فَيُنَادَى مِنْ فَوْقِهِمْ يَا أَهْلَ الْجَنَّةِ قَدْ تَبَسَّمَتْ جَارِيَةُ فُلَانٍ مَعَ زَوْجِهَا فِي بَيْتِهَا
When she smiles at her husband, a light emerges from her mouth, the people of Paradise will marvel at that until they say, ‘What is this light? Perhaps the Glorious Creator has Emerged unto us!’ There will be a call from above them: ‘O people of Paradise! A slave girl of so and so has smiled at her husband in her house!’
عَلَى رَأْسِ كُلِّ ذُؤَابَةٍ جُلْجُلٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ حَشْوُهَا المشك [الْمِسْكُ] وَ الْعَنْبَرُ إِذَا حَرَّكَتْ رَأْسَهَا خَرَجَ مِنْ وَسْطِ الْجُلْجُلِ أَصْوَاتٌ لَا يُشْبِهُ بَعْضُهَا بَعْضاً عَلَى رَأْسِهَا تَاجٌ مِنْ نُورٍ قَدْ زَيَّنَتْ أَصَابِعَهَا بِالْخَوَاتِيمِ
At the top of each forelock would be a chain of gold, its filling being of musk and ambergris. When she mover her head, sounds will emerge from the midst of the chain not resembling each other. Upon her head is a crown of light. Her fingers will be adorned with rings.
يُعْطِي اللَّهُ تَعَالَى هَذَا الثَّوَابَ لِمَنْ يُصَلِّي هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ وَ يَجْعَلُ ثَوَابَهَا لِوَالِدَيْهِ وَ لَهُ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ وَ لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَجْرِهِ شَيْءٌ وَ كَتَبَ لَهُ بِكُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ عَشَرَةَ آلَافِ أَلْفِ صَلَاةٍ وَ أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَعْرَةٍ عَلَى جَسَدِهِ نُوراً هَذَا جَزَاءُ اللَّهِ لِأَوْلِيَائِهِ-.
Allah-azwj will Give this Reward to the one who prays this Salat and makes its Rewards to be for his parents, and for him would be similar to that and nothing will be reduced from his Recompense, and ten million Salat(s) would be written for him for each Cycle of Salat, and Allah-azwj will Give him a light for every hair upon his body. This is a Reward of Allah-azwj for His‑azwj friends’’.[62]

Another Salat on the night of Thursday – Four Cycles Salat. You should be reciting in each Cycle (Surah) Al Hamd once, and Al Kafiroun forty times. It is as if he has liberated a million necks of believers, and Allah-azwj will Give him a castle in the Paradise as vast as a city in the world’’.[63]

Another Salat reported by Anas Bin Malik (a well-known fabricator) who said, ‘Rasool-Allah‑saww said: ‘One who prays four Cycles Salat, reciting in each Cycle Surah Al Fatiha seven times, and Al Qadr once, keeping a gap between the two with a Salaam, when he is free he should say one hundred times, ‘O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww’, and one hundred times, ‘O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Jibraeel-as’, and curses the oppressors one hundred times, Allah-azwj will Give him . . .’ – the complete Hadeeth’.

دَبَّرْتَ الْأَشْيَاءَ كُلَّهَا بِحِكْمَتِكَ وَ أَحْصَيْتَ أَمْرَ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ بِعِلْمِكَ ضَرَعَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ إِلَيْكَ وَ ذَلَّ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ لِمُلْكِكَ وَ انْقَادَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ لِطَاعَتِكَ وَ أَمْرِكَ لَا يَعْزُبُ عَنْكَ مِثْقَالُ حَبَّةٍ فِي السَّماواتِ وَ لا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَ لا أَصْغَرُ مِنْ ذلِكَ وَ لا أَكْبَرُ إِلَّا فِي كِتابٍ مُبِينٍ

O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name which, whenever it is mentioned, the souls tremble from it, and the hearts shake from it, and the voices humble to it, and the necks stoop to it, to Forgive for me and for my parents, and Mercy them just as they had nourished me when I was young, and Introduce between me and them in Your-azwj Paradise, and I ask You-azwj for me and for them, the security on the Day of Qiyamah, and the Pardon on the catastrophe!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي ضَعِيفٌ فَقَوِّ فِي مَرْضَاتِكَ ضَعْفِي وَ خُذْ إِلَى الْخَيْرِ بِنَاصِيَتِي وَ اجْعَلِ الْإِسْلَامَ مُنْتَهَى رِضَايَ وَ الْبِرَّ أَخْلَاقِي وَ التَّقْوَى زَادِي وَ أَصْلِحْ لِي دِينِيَ الَّذِي هُوَ عِصْمَتِي وَ بَارِكْ لِي فِي دُنْيَايَ الَّتِي بِهَا بَلَاغِي وَ أَصْلِحْ لِي آخِرَتِيَ الَّتِي إِلَيْهَا مَعَادِي وَ اجْعَلْ دُنْيَايَ زِيَادَةً فِي كُلِّ خَيْرٍ وَ اجْعَلْ آخِرَتِي عَافِيَةً مِنْ كُلِّ شَرٍّ وَ وَفِّقْنِي لِلِاسْتِعْدَادِ لِلْمَوْتِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ بِي وَ تَمْهِيدِ حَالِي فِي دَارِ الْخُلُودِ قَبْلَ نُقْلَتِي
O Allah-azwj! I am weak, so Strengthen my weakness in Your-azwj Satisfaction, and Take me by my forelocks towards the good, and Make Al-Islam as my ultimate satisfaction, and the righteousness as my morals, and the piety as my provision, and Rectify my religion for me which it my protection, and Bless for me in my world with which is my livelihood, and Rectify my Hereafter for me to which is my abode, and Make my world an increase in every good, and Make my Hereafter a well-being from every evil, and Harmonise me to prepare for the death before it descends with me, and Pave my situation in the eternal house before my transfer!

O Allah-azwj! Do not Seize me suddenly nor Cause me to die unexpectedly, and Save me from committing the sins by sincere repentance, and from the serious sicknesses with excellent health and the safety, and Cause my soul to die safely, reassured, satisfied with whatever is satisfactory for it, there neither being any fear upon it nor trepidation, nor panic, nor grief, in order to mingle with the Momineen, those to whom the goodness from You-azwj has preceded to them, and they are distanced from the Fire!

O Allah-azwj! I seek Refuge with You-azwj from the Satan-la and his-la insinuation, and do not Make any authority to be for him-la upon me, and Distance between me and him-la by Your-azwj Mercy, O most Merciful of the merciful! And may Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon Muhammad‑saww and his-saww pure Progeny-asws’’.[64]

46- جَمَالُ الْأُسْبُوعِ، صَلَاةٌ أُخْرَى لِيَوْمِ الْخَمِيسِ رُوِيَ عَنْهُ ص أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَنْ صَلَّى يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ بَيْنَ الظُّهْرِ وَ الْعَصْرِ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ يَقْرَأُ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ وَ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ
(The book) ‘Jamaal Al Usbou’ –
‘Another Salat for the day of Thursday reported from him-saww having said: ‘One who prays four Cycles on the day of Thursday between Al-Zohr and Al-Asr (Salat), reciting in the first Cycle Surah Al Hamd once, and Al Tawheed one hundred times, and in the second similar to that, and in the third Surah Al Hamd once and Ayat Al Kursy one hundred times, and in the fourth Surah Al Hamd once and Al Tawheed –
فَإِذَا سَلَّمَ يَقُولُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ يُحْيِي وَ يُمِيتُ وَ هُوَ حَيٌّ لَا يَمُوتُ بِيَدِهِ الْخَيْرُ وَ هُوَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ-
So, when he has performed Salaam he should say, ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj Alone, there is no associate for Him-azwj! For Him-azwj is the Kingdom. He-azwj Causes to live and Causes to die, and He-azwj is Living and does not die. The good is in His-azwj Hand, and He-azwj is Able upon all things’ –
أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى أَجْرَ مَنْ صَامَ رَجَبَ وَ شَعْبَانَ وَ شَهْرَ رَمَضَانَ وَ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ حِجَّةً وَ عُمْرَةً وَ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ خَمْسِينَ صَلَاةً وَ أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ بِكُلِّ آيَةٍ ثَوَابَ عَابِدٍ وَ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ بِكُلِّ كَافِرٍ مَدِينَةً فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَ زَوَّجَهُ اللَّهُ بِكُلِّ آيَةٍ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ مِائَتَيْ أَلْفِ زَوْجَةٍ وَ كَأَنَّمَا اشْتَرَى أُمَّةَ مُحَمَّدٍ ص وَ أَعْتَقَهُمْ وَ لَا يَخْرُجُ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا حَتَّى يَرَى فِي مَنَامِهِ مَكَانَهُ فِي الْجَنَّةِ.
Allah-azwj the Exalted will Give him Recompense of the one who fasts (months of) Rajab, and Shaban, and the month of Ramazan, and Allah-azwj will Write for him a Hajj and an Umrah, and Allah-azwj will Write for him fifty Salat(s), and Allah-azwj Give him for each Verse Rewards of a worshipper, and Allah-azwj will Write for him for every Kafir, a city in the Paradise, and Allah‑azwj will get him married to two hundred Houries for every Verse of the Quran, and it will be as if he has bought the community of Muhammad-saww and liberated them, and he will not exit from the world until he sees in his dream his place in the Paradise!’’[67]
صَلَاةٌ أُخْرَى لِيَوْمِ الْخَمِيسِ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ صَلَّى يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ يَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ مَرَّةً وَ إِذا جاءَ نَصْرُ اللَّهِ وَ الْفَتْحُ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ وَ إِنَّا أَعْطَيْناكَ الْكَوْثَرَ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ وَ يَقْرَأُ فِي يَوْمِهِ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ أَرْبَعِينَ مَرَّةً وَ يَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ أَرْبَعِينَ مَرَّةً
Another Salat for the day of Thursday – Muaz Bin Jabal said, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘One who prays two Cycles on the day of Thursday, reciting in each Cycle Surah Al Fatiha once, and Al Fat’h five times, and Al Kawser five times, and recited during his day after Al Asr Surah Al Tawheed forty times, and seek Forgiveness of Allah-azwj forty times –
أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بِعَدَدِ مَا فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَ النَّارِ حَسَنَاتٍ وَ أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ مَدِينَةً فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَ رَزَقَهُ مِائَةَ زَوْجَةٍ مِنَ الْحُورِ الْعِينِ وَ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَهُ بِعَدَدِ كُلِّ مَلَكٍ عِبَادَةَ سَنَةٍ وَ أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ بِكُلِّ آيَةٍ ثَوَابَ أَلْفِ شَهِيدٍ.
Allah-azwj will Give him good deeds on the Day of Qiyamah the number of whatever is in the Paradise and the Hellfire, and Allah-azwj will Give him a city in the Paradise, and get him married to one hundred wives from the Maiden Houries, and Allah-azwj will Write for him worship of a year of the number of every Angel, and Allah-azwj will Give him Rewards of a thousand martyrs for every Verse’’.[68]
صَلَاةٌ أُخْرَى لِيَوْمِ الْخَمِيسِ رَوَى ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ صَلَّى فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ مَا بَيْنَ الظُّهْرِ وَ الْعَصْرِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ يَقْرَأُ فِي أَوَّلِ رَكْعَةٍ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ مَرَّةً وَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ وَ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ فَإِذَا فَرَغَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ اسْتَغْفَرَ اللَّهَ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ وَ صَلَّى عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ص مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ لَا يَقُومُ مِنْ مَقَامِهِ حَتَّى يَغْفِرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ الْبَتَّةَ.
Another Salat for the day of Thursday – It is reported by Ibn Masoud who said, ‘Rasool-Allah‑saww said: ‘One who prays two Cycles during this day in what is between Al-Zohr and Al-Asr, reciting in the first Cycle Surah Al Fatiha once, and Ayat Al Kursy one hundred times, and in the second Surah Al Fatiha, and Al Tawheed one hundred times, so when he is free from his Salat, he seeks Forgiveness of Allah-azwj on the hundred times, and he sends Salawaat upon the Prophet-saww one hundred times, he will not stand from his place until Allah-azwj will absolutely Forgive (his sins) for him’’.[69]
صَلَاةٌ أُخْرَى لِيَوْمِ الْخَمِيسِ وَ هِيَ صَلَاةُ الْحَاجَةِ رَوَى أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِنَانِ بْنِ عِيسَى الْمُكَتِّبُ فِي كِتَابِهِ إِلَيَّ وَ إِجَازَتِهِ لِي قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ عُمَرَ وَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الطُّوسِيُّ ره عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الرَّازِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ [بْنِ] عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي نَجْرَانَ عَنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ:
Another Salat for the day of Thursday, and it is the Salat for needs – It is reported by Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Al Husayn who said, ‘It is narrated to us by Muhammad Bin Sinan Bin Isa Al Mukattib in his letter to me, and his authorisation to me. He said, ‘It is narrated to me by my father, from Muhammad Bin Sinan, from Al Mufazzal Bin Umar, and it is narrated to us by Abu Al Hassan Ali Bin Ahmad Al Tusi, from Muhammad Bin Ali Al Razy, from Muhammad Ismail, from Abdullah Bin Usman, from Abdul Rahman Bin Abu Najran, from Al Mufazzal Bin Umar who said,
كُنْتُ أَنَا وَ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ وَ دَاوُدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ الرَّقِّيُّ وَ دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَحْيَلَ وَ سَيْفٌ التَّمَّارُ وَ الْمُعَلَّى بْنُ خُنَيْسٍ وَ حُمْرَانُ بْنُ أَعْيَنَ عِنْدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع- إِذْ دَخَلَ رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ الْمَوْصِلِيُّ- وَ نَحْنُ نَتَكَلَّمُ وَ الصَّادِقُ ع سَاجِدٌ فَلَمَّا رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا الْغَمُّ وَ النَّفَسُ
‘I, and Is’haq Bin Ammar, and Dawood Bin Kaseer Al-Raqqy, and Dawood Bin Aheyl, and Sayf Al-Tammar, and Al-Moalla Bin Khuneys, and Humran Bin Ayn were in the presence of Abu Abdullah-asws when a man called Ismail Bin Qays Al-Mowsily entered, and we were talking and Al-Sadiq-asws was performing Sajdah. When he-asws raised his-asws head, he-asws looked at him and said: ‘What is this sorrow and sadness?’
فَقَالَ يَا مَوْلَايَ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ قَدْ وَ حَقِّكَ بَلَغَ مَجْهُودِي وَ ضَاقَ صَدْرِي
He said, ‘O my Master-asws, may I be sacrificed for you-asws! It is so, and you-asws are right! My exhaustion is extensive and my chest is constricted!’
قَالَ ع أَيْنَ أَنْتَ عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْحَوَائِجِ
He-asws said: ‘Where are you from the Salat of Needs?’
قَالَ وَ كَيْفَ أُصَلِّيهَا جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ
He said, ‘And how should I pray it? May I be sacrificed for you-asws!’
قَالَ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْخَمِيسِ بَعْدَ الضُّحَى فَاغْتَسِلْ وَ أْتِ مُصَلَّاكَ وَ صَلِّ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ تَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ وَ إِنَّا أَنْزَلْناهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ فَإِذَا سَلَّمْتَ فَقُلْ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ-
He-asws said: ‘When it will be the day of Thursday after the morning, bathe and go to your Prayer mat and pray four Cycles Salat, reciting in each Cycle Surah Al Fatiha, and Surah Al Qadr ten times. When you have performed Salaam, say one hundred times, ‘O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww!’
ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ يَدَيْكَ نَحْوَ السَّمَاءِ وَ قُلْ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ تُحَرِّكُ سُبْحَتَكَ وَ تَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ يَا رَبِّ حَتَّى تَنْقَطِعَ النَّفَسُ ثُمَّ تَبْسُطُ كَفَّيْكَ وَ تَرْفَعُهُمَا تِلْقَاءَ وَجْهِكَ وَ تَقُولُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ
Then raise your hands towards the sky and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj!’, ten times. Then move your rosary and say, ‘O Lord-azwj O Lord-azwj!’, until the breath is cut. Then extend your palms and raise them towards your face and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj!’, ten times.
وَ قُلْ يَا أَفْضَلَ مَنْ رُجِيَ وَ يَا خَيْرَ مَنْ دُعِيَ وَ يَا أَجْوَدَ مَنْ سَمَحَ وَ أَكْرَمَ مَنْ سُئِلَ يَا مَنْ لَا يَعْزُبُ عَلَيْهِ مَا يَفْعَلُهُ يَا مَنْ حَيْثُ مَا دُعِيَ أَجَابَ
And say, ‘O best of the ones hoped to, and O best of the ones supplicated to, and O most Generous of the ones who pardon, and most Benevolent of the ones asked! O One nothing is insignificant to Him-azwj what He-azwj Does! O One whenever supplicated to, Responds!
أَسْأَلُكَ بِمُوجِبَاتِ رَحْمَتِكَ وَ عَزَائِمِ مَغْفِرَتِكَ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَسْمَائِكَ الْعِظَامِ وَ بِكُلِّ اسْمٍ هُوَ لَكَ عَظِيمٌ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِوَجْهِكَ الْكَرِيمِ وَ بِفَضْلِكَ الْعَظِيمِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْعَظِيمِ الْعَظِيمِ دَيَّانِ الدِّينِ مُحْيِي الْعِظَامِ وَ هِيَ رَمِيمٌ
I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj obliged Mercy, and determination of Your-azwj Forgiveness, and I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Magnificent Names. And by every Name of Yours-azwj which is Magnificent, and I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Honourable Face, and by Your-azwj Mighty Grace, and I ask You‑azwj by Your Magnificent Name, the most Magnificent, Judge of the religion, Reviver of the bones and these have decayed!
وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنَّكَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تَقْضِيَ لِي حَاجَتِي وَ تُيَسِّرَ لِي مِنْ أَمْرِي فَلَا تُعَسِّرَ عَلَيَّ وَ تُسَهِّلَ لِي مَطْلَبَ رِزْقِي مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْوَاسِعِ يَا قَاضِيَ الْحَاجَاتِ يَا قَدِيراً عَلَى مَا لَا يَقْدِرُ عَلَيْهِ غَيْرُكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ وَ أَكْرَمَ الْأَكْرَمِينَ-
And I ask You-azwj because You-azwj are Allah-azwj! There is no god except You-azwj, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Fulfill my needs for me and Ease for me from my matters, so it will not be difficult upon me, and Ease for me seeking of my sustenance, from Your-azwj vast Grace! O Fulfiller of the needs! O Able upon what others are not able upon! O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
قَالَ الصَّادِقُ ع فَقُلْهَا مَرَّاتٍ
Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘Say it repeatedly’.
فَلَمَّا كَانَ بَعْدَ حَوْلٍ وَ كُنَّا فِي دَارِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِذْ دَخَلَ عَلَيْنَا دَاوُدُ ثُمَّ أَخْرَجَ مِنْ كُمِّهِ كِيساً فَقَالَ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ هَذِهِ خَمْسُمِائَةِ دِينَارٍ وَجَبَتْ عَلَيَّ بِبَرَكَتِكَ وَ بِمَا عَلَّمْتَنِي مِنَ الْخَيْرِ فَتَحَ اللَّهُ عَلَيَّ
When it was after a year, and we were in the house of Abu Abdullah-asws when Dawood-as entered. Then he extracted a bag from his sleeve and said, ‘May I be sacrificed for You-azwj! These are five hundred Dinars obligated upon me due to Your-azwj Blessings, and due to what good you-asws had taught me. Allah-azwj Opened (sustenance) upon me!
وَ زَادَ الطُّوسِيُّ حَتَّى كَانَ لِي عَلَى رَجُلٍ مَالٌ وَ قَدْ حَبَسَهُ عَلَيَّ وَ حَلَفَ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ الْحُكَّامِ فَجَاءَنِي بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَ مَا صَلَّيْتُ إِلَّا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَ حَمَلَ إِلَيَّ مَا كَانَ لِي عَلَيْهِ وَ سَأَلَنِي أَنْ أَجْعَلَهُ فِي حِلٍّ مِمَّا دَفَعَنِي فَفَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ
And there was expansion upon me to the extent that there was wealth for me upon a man and he had withheld it from me, and he had sworn an oath with one of the judges, so he came to me after that, and I had not prayed it except three times, and he had carried to me whatever had been for me upon him, and he asked me if I could make him in release from what he handed to me, so I did that’.
فَقَالَ الصَّادِقُ ع احْمَدْ رَبَّكَ وَ لَا يَشْغَلْكَ عَنْ عِبَادَةِ رَبِّكَ أَحَدٌ وَ تَفَقَّدْ إِخْوَانَكَ-.
Al-Sadiq-asws said: ‘Praise your Lord-azwj and do not let anyone pre-occupy you from your Lord‑azwj, and check on your brothers (if they need anything)’’.[70]
صَلَاةٌ أُخْرَى فِي يَوْمِ الْخَمِيسِ لِلْحَاجَةِ- مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ حَاجَةٌ مُهِمَّةٌ فَلْيَغْتَسِلْ يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ عِنْدَ ارْتِفَاعِ النَّهَارِ قَبْلَ الزَّوَالِ وَ لْيُصَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ يَقْرَأُ فِي الْأُولَى مِنْهُمَا الْحَمْدَ وَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ الْحَمْدَ وَ آخِرَ الْحَشْرِ وَ إِنَّا أَنْزَلْناهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ
Another Salat during the day of Thursday for the need – ‘One who were to have an important need for him, let him bathe on the day of Thursday at rising of the day before the midday, and let him pray two Cycles Salat, reciting in the first of these Surah Al Hamd and Ayat Al Kursy, and in the second Surah Al Hamd and end of Surah Al Hashr, and Surah Al Qadr.
فَإِذَا سَلَّمَ يَأْخُذُ الْمُصْحَفَ فَيَرْفَعُهُ فَوْقَ رَأْسِهِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ بِحَقِّ مَنْ أَرْسَلْتَهُ بِهِ إِلَى خَلْقِكَ وَ بِحَقِّ كُلِّ آيَةٍ لَكَ فِيهِ وَ بِحَقِّ كُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ مَدَحْتَهُ فِيهِ وَ بِحَقِّكَ عَلَيْكَ وَ لَا أَحَدَ أَعْرَفُ بِحَقِّكَ مِنْكَ
When he has performed Salaam, he should take the Quran and place it above his head, then he should say, ‘By the right of the one You-azwj had Sent with it to Your-azwj creatures, and by the right of every Verse of Yours-azwj in it, and by the right of every Momin You-azwj have Praised in it, and by Your-azwj Right upon You-azwj, and there is no one more recognising of Your-azwj Rights than You-azwj are!
يَا سَيِّدِي بِاللَّهِ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ بِحَقِّ عَلِيٍّ عَشْراً وَ بِحَقِّ فَاطِمَةَ عَشْراً- ثُمَّ تَعُدُّ كُلَّ إِمَامٍ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ حَتَّى تَنْتَهِيَ إِلَى إِمَامِ زَمَانِكَ- اصْنَعْ بِي كَذَا وَ كَذَا تُقْضَى حَاجَتُكَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ-.
O my Master-azwj! By Allah-azwj! (ten times). By the right of Muhammad-saww (ten times). By the right of Ali-asws (ten times), and by the right of Fatima-asws (ten times). Then count each Imam-asws ten times until you end to the Imam-asws of your time – ‘Do such and such with me’, your need will be fulfilled, if Allah-azwj so Desires!’’[71]
صَلَاةٌ أُخْرَى لِلْحَاجَةِ فِي يَوْمِ الْخَمِيسِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص أَنَّهُ قَالَ- مَنْ صَلَّى يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ يَقْرَأُ فِي الْأُولَى مِنْهُنَّ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ إِحْدَى وَ عِشْرِينَ مَرَّةً قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ إِحْدَى وَ ثَلَاثِينَ مَرَّةً قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ وَ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ إِحْدَى وَ أَرْبَعِينَ مَرَّةً قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ كُلُّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ بِتَسْلِيمٍ
Another Salat for the need during the day of Thursday, from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘One who prays four Cycles Salat on the day of Thursday, reciting in the first of these Surah Al Hamd once, and Al Tawheed eleven times, and in the second Surah Al Hamd once and Al Tawheed twenty-one times, and in the second (third) Surah Al Hamd once and Al Tawheed thirty times, and in the fourth Surah Al Hamd once and Al Tawheed forty times, every two Cycles being with a Salaam.
فَإِذَا سَلَّمَ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ قَرَأَ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ إِحْدَى وَ خَمْسِينَ مَرَّةً وَ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ إِحْدَى وَ خَمْسِينَ مَرَّةً ثُمَّ يَسْجُدُ وَ يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ وَ تَدْعُو بِمَا شِئْتَ
When he has performed Salaam in the fourth, he should recite Surah Al Tawheed fifty-one times, and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww’, fifty-one times. Then he should do Sajdah and say in his Sajdah, ‘O Allah‑azwj! O Allah-azwj!’, one hundred times and supplicate with whatever he so desires to’.
وَ قَالَ ص إِنَّ مَنْ صَلَّى هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ وَ قَالَ هَذَا الْقَوْلَ لَوْ سَأَلَ اللَّهَ فِي زَوَالِ الْجِبَالِ لَزَالَتْ أَوْ فِي نُزُولِ الْغَيْثِ لَنَزَلَ إِنَّهُ لَا يُحْجَبُ مَا بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ اللَّهِ وَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى لَيَغْضَبُ عَلَى مَنْ صَلَّى هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةَ وَ لَمْ يَسْأَلْ حَاجَتَهُ-.
And he-saww said: ‘The one who prays this Salat and say this word, if he were to ask Allah-azwj to move the mountain it would move, or descent of the rain it would descend. There will be no veil between him and Allah-azwj, and Allah-azwj the Exalted will be Wrathful upon the one who prays this Salat and does not ask his need’.
دُعَاءُ يَوْمِ الْخَمِيسِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ سُؤَالَ الْخَائِفِ مِنْ وَقْفَةِ الْمَوْقِفِ الْوَجِلِ مِنَ الْعَرْضِ الْمُشْفِقِ مِنَ الْخَشْيَةِ لِبَوَائِقِ الْقِيَامَةِ الْمَأْخُوذِ عَلَى الْغِرَّةِ النَّادِمِ عَلَى خَطِيئَتِهِ الْمَسْئُولِ الْمُحَاسَبِ الْمُثَابِ الْمُعَاقَبِ الَّذِي لَمْ يُكِنَّهُ عَنْكَ مَكَانٌ وَ لَا وَجَدَ مَفَرّاً مِنْكَ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ مُتَنَصِّلًا مِنْ سَيِّئِ عَمَلِهِ مُقِرّاً
A supplication on the day of Thursday – ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent, the Merciful! O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj asking by the one fearful of pausing at the pausing station, the anxious from the presentation, the apprehensive from the humbleness of obstacles of the Qiyamah, the one Seized upon the inattentiveness, the one regretting upon h is wrongdoings, the one Questioned, the Reckoned, the Rewarded, and Punished who does not have a place to flee from You-azwj nor can he find any escape from You-azwj except to You-azwj, disavowing from his evil deeds, acknowledging.
فَقَدْ أَحَاطَتْ بِهِ الْهُمُومُ وَ ضَاقَتْ عَلَيْهِ رَحَائِبُ التُّخُومِ مُوقِناً بِالْمَوْتِ مُبَادِراً بِالتَّوْبَةِ قَبْلَ الْفَوْتِ إِنْ مَنَنْتَ عَلَيَّ بِهَا وَ عَفَوْتَ عَنِّي فَأَنْتَ رَجَائِي إِذَا ضَاقَ عَنِّي الرَّجَاءُ وَ مَلْجَئِي إِذَا لَمْ أَجِدْ فِنَاءَ الِالْتِجَاءِ
The worries have surrounded him, and expanse of difficulties have narrowed upon him. He is convinced of the death, rushing with the repentance before the expiry. If You-azwj were to Confer upon me with it and Pardon me, for You-azwj are my hope when the hope and shelter are constricted upon me when I cannot find any courtyard for seeking the shelter!
تَوَحَّدْتَ بِالْعِزِّ وَ تَفَرَّدْتَ بِالْبَقَاءِ فَأَنْتَ الْمُنْفَرِدُ الْفَرْدُ الْمُتَفَرِّدُ بِالْمَجْدِ لَا يُوَارِي مِنْكَ مَكَانٌ وَ لَا يُغَيِّرُكَ زَمَانٌ فَأَلَّفْتَ بِلُطْفِكَ الْفَرَقَ وَ فَلَقْتَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ الْفَلَقَ وَ دَبَّرْتَ بِحِكْمَتِكَ دَوَاجِيَ الْغَسَقِ وَ أَخْرَجْتَ الْمِيَاهَ مِنَ الصُّمِّ الصَّيَاخِيدِ عَذْباً وَ أُجَاجاً وَ أَهْمَرْتَ مِنَ الْمُعْصِراتِ ماءً ثَجَّاجاً وَ أَخْرَجْتَ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ نَبَاتاً رَجْرَاجاً وَ جَعَلْتَ الشَّمْسَ لِلْبَرِيَّةِ سِرَاجاً وَ الْقَمَرَ وَ النُّجُومَ أَبْرَاجاً مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تُمَارِسَ فِيمَا ابْتَدَأْتَ لُغُوباً وَ لَا عِلَاجاً

فَأَنْتَ إِلَهُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَ خَالِقُهُ وَ جَبَّارُ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَ رَازِقُهُ فَالْعَزِيزُ مَنْ أَعْزَزْتَ وَ الشَّقِيُّ مَنْ أَذْلَلْتَ وَ الْغَنِيُّ مَنْ أَغْنَيْتَ وَ الْفَقِيرُ مَنْ أَفْقَرْتَ أَنْتَ وَلِيِّي وَ مَوْلَايَ عَلَيْكَ رِزْقِي وَ بِيَدِكَ نَاصِيَتِي
You-azwj are God-azwj of every thing and its Creator, and Compeller of every thing and its Sustainer! The honourable is the one You-azwj have Honoured, and the wretched is the one You-azwj have Disgraced, and the rich is the one You-azwj have Enriched and the poor is the one You-azwj have Impoverished! You-azwj are my Guardian, my Master! Upon You-azwj is my sustenance and in Your-azwj Hand is my forelock!
فَصَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ وَ افْعَلْ بِي مَا أَنْتَ أَهْلُهُ وَ عُدْ بِفَضْلِكَ عَلَى عَبْدٍ غَمَرَهُ جَهْلُهُ وَ اسْتَوْلَى عَلَيْهِ التَّسْوِيفُ حَتَّى سَالَمَ الْأَيَّامَ وَ احْتَقَبَ الْمَحَارِمَ وَ الْآثَامَ
Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws, and Do with me what You-azwj are rightful of, and Repeat with Your-azwj Grace upon a servant whose ignorance has immersed him, and procrastination has prevailed upon him until he passes the days safely, and shuns the Prohibitions and the sins!
فَصَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اجْعَلْنِي سَيِّدِي عَبْداً يَفْزَعُ إِلَى التَّوْبَةِ فَإِنَّهَا مَفْزَعُ الْمُذْنِبِينَ وَ أَعِنِّي بِجُودِكَ الْوَاسِعِ عَنْ لُؤْمِ الْمَخْلُوقِينَ وَ لَا تُحْوِجْنِي إِلَى شِرَارِ الْعَالَمِينَ وَ هَبْ لِي عَفْوَكَ فِي مَوْقِفِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ
Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and Make me, my Master, a servant who panics to the repenting for it is a shelter of the sinners, and Assist me by Your-azwj vast generousity from blames of the created beings, and do not Make me needy to evil ones of the worlds, and Gift to me Your-azwj Pardon in the pausing on the Day of Qiyamah!
يَا مَنْ لَهُ الْأَسْمَاءُ الْحُسْنَى وَ الْأَمْثَالُ الْعُلْيَا جَبَّارَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرَضِينَ إِلَيْكَ قَصَدْتُ رَاغِباً فَلَا تَرُدَّنِي عَنْ سِنِيِّ مَوَاهِبِكَ صُفْراً إِنَّكَ جَوَادٌ كَرِيمٌ مِفْضَالٌ

يَا رَءُوفاً بِالْعِبَادِ وَ مَنْ هُوَ لَهُمْ بِالْمِرْصَادِ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَكْرِمْ مَئَابِي وَ أَجْزِلْ ثَوَابِي وَ اسْتُرْ عَوْرَتِي وَ أَنْقِذْنِي بِفَضْلِكَ مِنْ أَلِيمِ الْعَذَابِ إِنَّكَ كَرِيمٌ وَهَّابٌ
O Kind with the servants, and One Who is with the ambush for them! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and Make my abode honourable, and Make my Rewards plentiful, and Cover my defects, and Save me from the painful Punishment by Your-azwj Grace, for You-azwj are Benevolent, Bestower!
فَقَدْ أَلْقَتْنِي السَّيِّئَاتُ وَ الْحَسَنَاتُ بَيْنَ ثَوَابٍ وَ عِقَابٍ وَ قَدْ رَجَوْتُكَ يَا إِلَهِي أَنْ تَكُونَ بِلُطْفِكَ تَتَغَمَّدُ عَبْدَكَ الْمُقِرَّ بِفَوَادِحِ الذُّنُوبِ بِالْعَفْوِ وَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ يَا غَفَّارَ الذُّنُوبِ وَ تَصْفَحُ عَنْ زَلَلِهِ يَا سَتَّارَ الْعُيُوبِ
The evil deeds and the good deeds have cast me between rewards and Punishment, and O my God-azwj, I am hoping that You-azwj may Shield Your-azwj servant with Your-azwj Compassion, the one who has acknowledged with the disastrous sins, with the Pardon and the Forgiveness, O Forgiver of the sins, and You-azwj may Excuse his slips, O Concealer of the faults!
فَلَيْسَ لِي رَبٌّ أَرْتَجِيهِ غَيْرُكَ وَ لَا مَلِكٌ يَجْبُرُ فَاقَتِي سِوَاكَ فَلَا تَرُدَّنِي مِنْكَ بِالْخَيْبَةِ يَا كَاشِفَ الْكُرْبَةِ وَ مُقِيلَ الْعَثْرَةِ
There isn’t any Lord-azwj for me I can hope to apart from You-azwj, nor any king who can block my destitution besides You-azwj, so do not Return me with the disappointment from You-azwj, O Remover of the distress and Uprooter of the stumbles!
صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ سُرَّنِي فَإِنِّي لَسْتُ بِأَوَّلِ مَنْ سَرَرْتَهُ يَا وَلِيَّ النِّعَمِ وَ شَدِيدَ النِّقَمِ وَ دَائِمَ الْمَجْدِ وَ الْكَرَمِ
Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and cheer me, for I am not the first one You-azwj have Cheered, O Guardian of the bounties and Severe of the Punishment, and constant of the Glory and the Benevolence!

فَقَدْ دَعْوَتُكَ يَا إِلَهِي وَ تَكَفَّلْتَ بِالْإِجَابَةِ وَ لَا تَرُدُّ سَائِلِيكَ وَ لَا تُخَيِّبُ آمِلِيكَ يَا خَيْرَ مَأْمُولٍ بِرَأْفَتِكَ وَ رَحْمَتِكَ وَ فَرْدَانِيَّتِكَ فِي رُبُوبِيَّتِكَ
I am supplicating to You-azwj, O my God-azwj, and You-azwj have Guaranteed the response, and do not Return Your-azwj beggar, and do not Disappoint Your-azwj aspirer, O best of the ones hoped to due to Your-azwj Kindness and Your-azwj Mercy, and Your-azwj being Individual in Your‑azwj Lordship!
صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اكْفِنِي مَا أَهَمَّنِي مِنْ أَمْرِ دُنْيَايَ وَ آخِرَتِي إِنَّكَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَ أَنْتَ سَمِيعٌ فَأَدْرِجْنِي دَرَجَ مَنْ أَوْجَبْتَ لَهُ حُلُولَ دَارِ كَرَامَتِكَ مَعَ أَصْفِيَائِكَ وَ أَهْلِ اخْتِصَاصِكَ بِجَزِيلِ مَوَاهِبِكَ فِي دَرَجَاتِ جَنَّاتِكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ الصِّدِّيقِينَ وَ الشُّهَداءِ وَ الصَّالِحِينَ وَ حَسُنَ أُولئِكَ رَفِيقاً
Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and Suffice me of what worries me from the matters of my world and my Hereafter! You-azwj are Able upon all things, and You-azwj are All-Hearing, so Rank me at the rank of the one it is obligated for him entering the house of Your-azwj Honours along with Your-azwj elites, and people You-azwj have Particularised with abundance of Your-azwj Gifts in levels of Your-azwj Gardens with those You‑azwj have Favoured upon, from the Prophets-as, and the truthful, and the martyrs, and the righteous, and they are the best friends!
اللَّهُمَّ وَ مَا افْتَرَضْتَ لِلْآبَاءِ وَ الْأُمَّهَاتِ وَ الْإِخْوَةِ وَ الْأَخَوَاتِ فَصَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ احْتَمِلْهُ عَنِّي إِلَيْهِمْ وَ اغْفِرْ لَنَا وَ لَهُمْ وَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ إِنَّكَ قَرِيبٌ مُجِيبٌ وَ ذَاكَ عَلَيْكَ يَسِيرٌ وَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ أَجْمَعِينَ- وَ بَعْدَهُ فِي شُكْرِ النِّعْمَةِ
O Allah-azwj, and whatever You-azwj have Imposed for the fathers and the mothers, and the brothers and the sisters, so Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and Carry it on my behalf to them, and Forgive for us and for them, and for the believing men and the believing women! You-azwj are near, Responding, and that is easy upon You-azwj! And may Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon our Chief Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws altogether, and after it in thanking for the bounties!
اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ قُلْتَ فِي كِتَابِكَ ضَرَبَ اللَّهُ مَثَلًا قَرْيَةً كانَتْ آمِنَةً مُطْمَئِنَّةً يَأْتِيها رِزْقُها رَغَداً مِنْ كُلِّ مَكانٍ فَكَفَرَتْ بِأَنْعُمِ اللَّهِ فَأَذاقَهَا اللَّهُ لِباسَ الْجُوعِ وَ الْخَوْفِ بِما كانُوا يَصْنَعُونَ
O Allah-azwj! For You-azwj is the Praise. There is no god except You-azwj. You-azwj Said in Your-azwj Book: And Allah Strikes an example of a town which was safe, secure. Its sustenance came to it in abundance from every place. But, it committed Kufr with the Bounties of Allah, so Allah Made it to taste the clothing of hunger and the fear due to what they were doing [16:112].
فَبِكَ آمَنْتُ وَ صَدَّقْتُ فَلَا تَجْعَلْ هَذَا مِثْلِي فِي نِعْمَتِكَ يَا سَيِّدِي وَ لَا تَجْعَلْنِي مُغْتَرّاً بِالطُّمَأْنِينَةِ إِلَى رَغَدِ الْعَيْشِ آمِناً مِنْ مَكْرِكَ لِأَنَّكَ قُلْتَ فِي كِتَابِكَ فَلا يَأْمَنُ مَكْرَ اللَّهِ إِلَّا الْقَوْمُ الْخاسِرُونَ
I have believed in You-azwj and ratified, so do not Make this as my example in Your-azwj bounties, O my Master, and do not let me be deceived by the reassurance to the pleasant life, feeling safe from Your-azwj Plan, because You-azwj Said in Your-azwj Book: But no one feels secure from the Plan of Allah except the people (who are) losers [7:99].
وَ أَنَا أَبْرَأُ إِلَيْكَ مِنَ الْحَوْلِ وَ الْقُوَّةِ مُعْتَرِفٌ بِإِحْسَانِكَ مُسْتَجِيرٌ بِكَرَمِكَ مِنْ أَنْ تُذِيقَنِي لِبَاسَ الْجُوعِ وَ الْخَوْفِ بَعْدَ الْأَمْنِ وَ النِّعْمَةِ وَ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ وَ اجْبُرْنِي وَ لَا تَخْذُلْنِي
And I am disavowing to you-azwj from the might and the strength, acknowledging Your-azwj Favours, seeking shelter with Your-azwj Benevolence from Causing me to taste the clothing of hunger and the fear after the security of the bounties, and send Salawaat upon Muhammad‑saww and his-saww Progeny-asws, and Compel me and do not Abandon me!
وَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِذَنْبِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي وَ اجْعَلْنِي مِمَّنْ سَبَقَتْ لَهُ مِنْكَ الْحُسْنَى فَأَسْعَدْتَهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَ الْأُولَى
And I seek Your-azwj Forgiveness for my sins, so Forgive these for me, and Make me from the ones the goodness has preceded to him from You-azwj so You-azwj Made him fortunate in the Hereafter and the former (world)!
وَ أَسْأَلُكَ يَا سَيِّدِي أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تَسْتَجِيبَ دُعَائِي وَ تُحَقِّقَ بِفَضْلِكَ أَمَلِي وَ رَجَائِي يَا اللَّهُ فَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّومُ-.
And I ask You-azwj, O my Master, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Answer my supplication, and Make my aspirations and my hopes to be a reality with Your-azwj Grace, O Allah-azwj! For You-azwj is the Praise, O Living, O Eternal!’’[72]
عُوذَةُ يَوْمِ الْخَمِيسِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ أُعِيذُ نَفْسِي وَ وَالِدَيَّ وَ وُلْدِي وَ جَمِيعَ مَا رَزَقَنِي رَبِّي وَ مَا أَنْعَمَ بِهِ عَلَيَّ وَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ إِخْوَانِيَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ بِاللَّهِ الْأَعَزِّ الْأَكْبَرِ
An amulet (Taweez) on the day of Thursday – ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent, the Merciful! I seek Refuge for myself and my parents and my children, and what my Lord-azwj has Graced me, and what He-azwj has Favoured with upon me, and upon entirety of my brethren, the believing men and the believing women, with Allah-azwj the Mightiest, the Greatest!
وَ أُعِيذُهَا بِاللَّهِ الْأَعَزِّ الْأَعْظَمِ وَ أُعِيذُهَا بِاللَّهِ الْأَجَلِّ الْأَرْفَعِ وَ أُعِيذُهَا بِاللَّهِ رَبِّ الْمَشَارِقِ وَ الْمَغَارِبِ مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ شَيْطَانٍ مَارِدٍ وَ قَائِمٍ وَ قَاعِدٍ وَ حَاسِدٍ وَ مُعَانِدٍ:
And I seek its Refuge with Allah-azwj the Mightiest, the most Magnificent, and I seek its Refuge with Allah-azwj the most Majestic, the Loftiest, and I seek its refuge with Allah-azwj Lord-azwj of the easts and the wests, from evil of every apostate Satan-la, and standing one, and sitting one, and envier, and obstinate one!
وَ يُنَزِّلُ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنَ السَّماءِ ماءً لِيُطَهِّرَكُمْ بِهِ وَ يُذْهِبَ عَنْكُمْ رِجْزَ الشَّيْطانِ وَ لِيَرْبِطَ عَلى قُلُوبِكُمْ وَ يُثَبِّتَ بِهِ الْأَقْدامَ
And He Sent upon you water from the sky to Purify you by it, and Remove uncleanness of the Satan from you, and to Bind your hearts and Affirm the feet by it [8:11].
ارْكُضْ بِرِجْلِكَ هذا مُغْتَسَلٌ بارِدٌ وَ شَرابٌ
(We Said): “Walk toward it as this would be a cool washing-place and a drink” [38:42].
وَ أَنْزَلْنا مِنَ السَّماءِ ماءً طَهُوراً لِنُحْيِيَ بِهِ بَلْدَةً مَيْتاً وَ نُسْقِيَهُ مِمَّا خَلَقْنا أَنْعاماً وَ أَناسِيَّ كَثِيراً
And We Send down clean water from the sky [25:48] In order to revive by it a dead land, and We Quench it from what We Created, cattle and a lot of people [25:49].
الْآنَ خَفَّفَ اللَّهُ عَنْكُمْ وَ عَلِمَ أَنَّ فِيكُمْ ضَعْفاً
For now, Allah has Lightened from you and Knows that among you there are weak ones [8:66].
ذلِكَ تَخْفِيفٌ مِنْ رَبِّكُمْ وَ رَحْمَةٌ فَمَنِ اعْتَدى بَعْدَ ذلِكَ فَلَهُ عَذابٌ أَلِيمٌ
That is a Lightening from your Lord and a Mercy. So the one who exceeds after that, for him would be a painful Punishment [2:178].
يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ أَنْ يُخَفِّفَ عَنْكُمْ وَ خُلِقَ الْإِنْسانُ ضَعِيفاً
Allah Intends to Lighten (the burdens) from you, and He Created the human being as weak [4:28].
فَسَيَكْفِيكَهُمُ اللَّهُ وَ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ
And Allah will Suffice you against them, and He is the Hearing, the Knowing [2:137].
وَ اللَّهُ غالِبٌ عَلى أَمْرِهِ وَ لكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لا يَعْلَمُونَ
And Allah is Dominant upon His Command, but most of the people are not knowing [12:21].
لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ وَ نِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ.
There is no god except Allah-azwj, Muhammad-saww is Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj, and Allah-azwj is Sufficient for us and is the best Protector’’.[73]
أقول: ثم ذكر السيد ره بعد ذلك أعمال ليلة الجمعة و يومها و سنذكرها في بابها و لم يورد ره دعاء يوم الجمعة من أدعية الأسبوع بهذه الرواية و ذكر أدعية أخرى و لعله على الغفلة و النسيان.
I (Majlisi) say, ‘Then the Seyyid mentioned after that, acts of worship for the night of Friday and its day, and we shall mention it in its chapter, and he did not refer to supplications for the day of Friday from supplications of the week with this report, and he mentioned other supplications, and perhaps it is based on inattentiveness and the forgetfulness.
ثم قال ذكر الرواية الثانية في صلاة الأسبوع التي اختارها جدي أبو جعفر الطوسي في المصباح نذكرها بإسنادها الذي حذفه أو اختصر بعضه.
Then he said mentioning the second report regarding Salat(s) of the week which my grandfather Abu Ja’far Al Tusi had selected in (the book) ‘Al-Misbah’. We shall mention it by its chain which he omitted, or shortened part of it’.
حَدَّثَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْقَطَّانُ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْهَيْثَمِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَمَّادٍ الرَّازِيِّ عَنِ ابْنِ مُبَارَكٍ عَنِ الشِّعْبِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمُقْرِي عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
It is narrated by Muhammad Bin Abdullah Al Qattan, from his grandfather Abdullah Bin Al Haysam, from his father, from Muhammad Bin Hammad Al Razy, from Ibn Mubarak, from Al Shi’b Bin Rafie, from Saeed Bin Abu Saeed Al Muqry, from Abu Hureyra (a well-known fabricator) who said,
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص تُصَلِّي لَيْلَةَ السَّبْتِ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ تَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ مَرَّةً فَإِذَا سَلَّمَ قَرَأَ فِي دُبُرِ هَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى لَهُ وَ لِوَالِدَيْهِ وَ كَانَ مِمَّنْ يَشْفَعُ لَهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘He should pray four Cycles on the night of Saturday, reciting in each Cycle Surah Al Hamd once, and Ayat Al Kursy three times, and Al Tawheed once.

وَ يَدْفَعُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ عَذَابَ الْقَبْرِ وَ ضِيقَهُ وَ ظُلْمَتَهُ وَ أَدْخَلَ فِيهِ النُّورَ وَ يَدْفَعُ عَنْهُ شَدَائِدَ يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ وَ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لَهُ بِكُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ عِبَادَةَ أَلْفِ سَنَةٍ وَ قَضَى اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لَهُ سَبْعِينَ أَلْفَ حَاجَةٍ أَدْنَاهَا الْمَغْفِرَةُ وَ لَا يُصِيبُهُ عَطَشٌ وَ لَا جُوعٌ.

صَلَاةُ يَوْمِ السَّبْتِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص- مَنْ صَلَّى يَوْمَ السَّبْتِ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ يَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ مَرَّةً وَ قُلْ يا أَيُّهَا الْكافِرُونَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَإِذَا فَرَغَ وَ سَلَّمَ قَرَأَ آيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ كَتَبَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَهُ بِكُلِّ حَرْفٍ ثَوَابَ شَهِيدٍ وَ كَانَ تَحْتَ ظِلِّ عَرْشِهِ مَعَ النَّبِيِّينَ وَ الشُّهَدَاءِ.
Salat on the day of Saturday, Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘One who prays four Cycles on the day of Saturday, reciting in each Cycle Surah Al Fatiha, and Al Kafiroun three times, so when he is free and has performed Salaam, he should recite Ayat Al Kursy, Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic will Write for him Rewards of a martyr for every letter, and he would be beneath shade of His‑azwj Throne with the Prophets-as and the martyrs’’.[102]
47- الْمُتَهَجِّدُ، وَ الْبَلَدُ، وَ الْجَمَالُ، وَ الْإِخْتِيَارُ، قَالُوا دُعَاءُ لَيْلَةِ السَّبْتِ مَرْوِيٌّ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع- تَعَلَّمَهُ مِنْ جَبْرَئِيلَ ع حَيْثُ رَآهُ يَدْعُو بِهِ لَيْلَةَ السَّبْتِ- فَلَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ص ذَاكَ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع
(The books) ‘Al Mutahajjid’, and ‘Al Balad’, and ‘Al Jamaal’, and ‘Al Ikhtiyar’ –
They said, ‘A supplication on the night of Saturday reported from Ali-asws learnt from Jibraeel‑as whereby he-asws saw him-saww supplicating with on the night of Saturday. He-asws did not recognise him-as, so the Prophet-saww said to him-as: ‘That is Jibraeel-as!’
يَا مَنْ عَفَا عَنِ السَّيِّئَاتِ فَلَمْ يُجَازِ بِهَا ارْحَمْ عَبْدَكَ أَيَا اللَّهُ نَفْسِي نَفْسِي ارْحَمْ عَبْدَكَ أَيْ سَيِّدَاهْ عَبْدُكَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ أَيَا رَبَّاهْ أَيْ إِلَهِي بِكَيْنُونِيَّتِكَ أَيْ أَمَلَاهْ أَيْ رَجَايَاهْ أَيْ غِيَاثَاهْ أَيْ مُنْتَهَا رَغْبَتَاهْ أَيْ مُجْرِيَ الدَّمِ فِي عُرُوقِي
‘O One Who Pardons sins without retribution, have Mercy on Your-azwj servant. O Allah-azwj, for myself, for myself, have Mercy on Your-azwj servant. O my Master! Your-azwj servant is before you. O my Lord! O my God-azwj! in your infinite Greatness, in Your Generosity, in Your‑azwj hope, in Your-azwj refuge, in Your-azwj ultimate Desire, in the flowing of blood in my veins!
عَبْدُكَ عَبْدُكَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ أَيْ سَيِّدِي أَيْ مَالِكَ عَبْدِهِ هَذَا عَبْدُكَ أَيْ سَيِّدَاهْ يَا أَمَلَاهْ يَا مَالِكَاهْ أَيَا هُوَ أَيَا هُوَ يَا رَبَّاهْ عَبْدُكَ لَا حِيلَةَ لِي وَ لَا غِنَى بِي عَنْ نَفْسِي وَ لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ لَهَا ضَرّاً وَ لَا نَفْعاً وَ لَا أَجِدُ مَنْ أُصَانِعُهُ تَقَطَّعَتْ أَسْبَابُ الْخَدَائِعِ عَنِّي وَ اضْمَحَلَّ عَنِّي كُلُّ بَاطِلٍ وَ أَفْرَدَنِي الدَّهْرُ إِلَيْكَ
Your-azwj servant, Your-azwj servant is before You-azwj! O my Master, O the Owner of Your-azwj servant! This is Your-azwj servant, O my Master! O He-azwj Who is the hope, O He-azwj Who is the Master! O my God-azwj, O my God-azwj, O my Lord-azwj! Your servant has no recourse, and I am not self-sufficient. I cannot protect myself, and I find no one to whom I can turn for (protection from) harm or benefit. The means of supplications have been cut off from me, and every falsehood has vanished from me. Time has isolated me to You-azwj!
فَقُمْتُ هَذَا الْمَقَامَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ إِلَهِي تَعْلَمُ هَذَا كُلَّهُ فَكَيْفَ أَنْتَ صَانِعٌ بِي لَيْتَ شِعْرِي وَ لَا أَشْعُرُ كَيْفَ تَقُولُ لِدُعَائِي أَ تَقُولُ لِدُعَائِي نَعَمْ أَوْ تَقُولُ لَا
I have stood in this place in front of You-azwj, my God-azwj! You-azwj Know all of this. How will You-azwj Deal with me I don’t know nor am I aware what You-azwj will be Saying to my supplication. Will You-azwj Say yes to my supplication or Say no?
فَإِنْ قُلْتَ لَا فَيَا وَيْلِي يَا وَيْلِي يَا وَيْلِي يَا عَوْلِي يَا عَوْلِي يَا عَوْلِي يَا شِقْوَتِي يَا شِقْوَتِي يَا شِقْوَتِي يَا ذُلِّي يَا ذُلِّي يَا ذُلِّي إِلَى مَنْ أَوْ عِنْدَ مَنْ أَوْ كَيْفَ أَوْ لِمَا ذَا أَوْ إِلَى أَيِّ شَيْءٍ أَلْجَأُ وَ مَنْ أَرْجُو وَ مَنْ يَعُودُ عَلَيَّ حَيْثُ تَرْفِضُنِي يَا وَاسِعَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ
If You-azwj Say No, so O my doom! O my doom! O my doom! O my hope! O my wailing! O my wailing! O my wailing! O my misery! O my misery! O my misery! O my disgrace! O my disgrace! O my disgrace! To whom, or with whom, or how, or to what, or to which thing can I shelter, and who can I hope to, and who can I return to when You-azwj Reject me, O vast of the Forgiveness!
وَ إِنْ قُلْتَ نَعَمْ كَمَا الظَّنُّ بِكَ فَطُوبَى لِي أَنَا السَّعِيدُ طُوبَى لِي أَنَا الْغَنِيُّ طُوبَى لِي أَنَا الْمَرْحُومُ أَيْ مُتَرَاحِمُ أَيْ مُتَرَائِفُ أَيْ مُتَعَطِّفُ أَيْ مُتَمَلِّكُ أَيْ مُتَجَبِّرُ أَيْ مُتَسَلِّطُ لَا عَمَلَ لِي أَبْلُغُ بِهِ نَجَاحَ حَاجَتِي
And if You-azwj Say yes, as it is hoped for You-azwj, then fortunate am I. Fortunate am I, for I am content. Fortunate am I, for I am rich. Fortunate am I, for I am the one blessed with Mercy by the Compassionate, the Benevolent, the Sovereign, the Mighty, the All-powerful. I have no action by which I can achieve the success of my need!
فَأَنَا أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِي أَنْشَأْتَهُ مِنْ كُلِّكَ وَ اسْتَقَرَّ فِي غَيْبِكَ فَلَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْكَ إِلَى شَيْءٍ سِوَاكَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِهِ هُوَ ثُمَّ لَمْ يُلْفَظْ بِهِ وَ لَا يُلْفَظُ بِهِ أَبَداً أَبَداً وَ بِهِ وَ بِكَ لَا شَيْءَ غَيْرُ هَذَا
I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name that You-azwj Created from all of Yourself-azwj, and it settled in Your-azwj unseen, and nothing besides You-azwj emerges from it. I ask You-azwj by it, that which is unspoken by it and will never be spoken by it forever and ever. And by it and by You, there is nothing other than this!
وَ لَا أَجِدُ أَحَداً أَنْفَعَ لِي مِنْكَ أَيْ كَبِيرُ أَيْ عَلِيُّ أَيْ مَنْ عَرَّفَنِي نَفْسَهُ أَيْ مَنْ أَمَرَنِي بِطَاعَتِهِ أَيَا مَنْ نَهَانِي عَنْ مَعْصِيَتِهِ أَيَا مَنْ أَعْطَانِي مَسْئُولِي أَيْ مَدْعُوُّ أَيْ مَسْئُولُ أَيْ مَطْلُوباً إِلَيْهِ
And I cannot find anyone more beneficial for me than You-azwj! O Great, O Exalted, O the One‑azwj Who Introduced me to Himself-azwj, O One Who Commanded me with obeying Him‑azwj, O One Who Prohibited me from disobeying Him-azwj, O One Who Granted me my request, O supplicated to, O begged to, O sought to!
إِلَهِي رَفَضْتُ وَصِيَّتَكَ وَ لَمْ أُطِعْكَ وَ لَوْ أَطَعْتُكَ لَكَفَيْتَنِي مَا قُمْتُ إِلَيْكَ فِيهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ أَقُومَ وَ أَنَا مَعَ مَعْصِيَتِي لَكَ رَاجٍ
My God-azwj! I rejected Your-azwj Advice and did not obey You-azwj, and had I obeyed You-azwj, You-azwj would have Suffice me regarding what I am standing to You-azwj before I stand, and I am with my acts of disobedience hopeful to You-azwj!
فَلَا تَحُلْ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَ مَا رَجَوْتُ وَ ارْدُدْ يَدِي عَلَيَّ مَلْأَى مِنْ خَيْرِكَ وَ فَضْلِكَ وَ بِرِّكَ وَ عَافِيَتِكَ وَ مَغْفِرَتِكَ وَ رِضْوَانِكَ وَ بِحَقِّكَ يَا سَيِّدِي.
Do not Form a barrier between me and what I am hoping for, and Return my hands to me filled with Your-azwj goodness and Your-azwj Grace, and Your-azwj well-being, and Your-azwj Forgiveness, and Your-azwj Satisfaction, and by Your-azwj right, O my Master!’’[103]

‘And Amir Al-Momineen-asws had followed up this supplication with these phrases: ‘O my weapon during my distress, and O my Help during my adversity, O in Charge of the bounties, O my Success regarding my needs, O my Forgiveness in my predicament, O my Saviour from my destruction, O my Comfort in my loneliness!
صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اغْفِرْ لِي خَطِيئَتِي وَ يَسِّرْ لِي أَمْرِي وَ اجْمَعْ لِي شَمْلِي وَ أَنْجِحْ لِي طَلِبَتِي وَ أَصْلِحْ لِي شَأْنِي وَ اكْفِنِي مَا أَهَمَّنِي وَ اجْعَلْ لِي مِنْ أَمْرِي فَرَجاً وَ مَخْرَجاً وَ لَا تُفَرِّقْ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَ الْعَافِيَةِ أَبَداً مَا أَبْقَيْتَنِي وَ عِنْدَ وَفَاتِي إِذَا تَوَفَّيْتَنِي يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ.
Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and Forgive my sins for me, and Ease my matters for me, and Gather my family for me, and Make my seeking successful, and Rectify my occupation for me, and Suffice me of what worries me, and Make a relief and an outlet for me from my affairs, and do not Separate between me and the well-being, ever, for as long as You-azwj Cause me to remain, and at my expiry when You-azwj Cause me to expire, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’’[104]
49- الْمُتَهَجِّدُ، وَ الْجِمَالُ، وَ الْإِخْتِيَارُ، رُوِيَ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع أَنَّهُ صَامَ يَوْمَ الْأَرْبِعَاءِ وَ الْخَمِيسِ وَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَ صَلَّى لَيْلَةَ السَّبْتِ مَا شَاءَ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ يَا رَبِّ ثَلَاثَمِائَةِ مَرَّةٍ
(The book) ‘Al Mutahajjid’, and ‘Al Jamaal’, and ‘Al Ikhtiyar’ –
‘It is reported from Al-Sadiq-asws, he-asws fasted on the day of Wednesday, and the Thursday, and the Friday, and he-asws prayed on the night of Saturday what he-asws so desired to, then he‑asws said: ‘O Lord-azwj! O Lord-azwj!’, three hundred times.
ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ يَرُدُّ غَضَبَكَ إِلَّا حِلْمُكَ وَ لَا يُنْجِي مِنْ عِقَابِكَ إِلَّا عَفْوُكَ وَ لَا يُخَلِّصُ مِنْكَ إِلَّا رَحْمَتُكَ وَ التَّضَرُّعُ إِلَيْكَ
Then he-asws said: ‘O Lord-azwj! Surely nothing returns Your-azwj Wrath except Your-azwj Forbearance, nor rescue from Your-azwj Punishment except Your-azwj Pardon, nor Purify from You-azwj except Your-azwj Mercy and the beseeching to You-azwj!
فَهَبْ لِي يَا إِلَهِي فَرَجاً بِالْقُدْرَةِ الَّتِي تُحْيِي بِهَا أَمْوَاتَ الْعِبَادِ وَ بِهَا تَنْشُرُ مَيْتَ الْبِلَادِ وَ لَا تُهْلِكْنِي وَ عَرِّفْنِي يَا رَبِّ إِجَابَتَكَ لِي وَ أَذِقْنِي طَعْمَ الْعَافِيَةِ إِلَى مُنْتَهَى أَجَلِي
O my God-azwj! Grant relief to me by the Power which You-azwj Revive the deceased servants, and Your-azwj Grow the dead lands, and do not Destroy me, and Grant to me, O Kind-azwj, Your‑azwj Response to me, and Make me taste the provision of well-being to the end of my term!
يَا رَبِّ ارْفَعْنِي وَ لَا تَضَعْنِي وَ احْفَظْنِي وَ انْصُرْنِي وَ لَا تَخْذُلْنِي يَا رَبِّ إِنْ رَفَعْتَنِي فَمَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَضَعُنِي وَ إِنْ وَضَعْتَنِي فَمَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يَرْفَعُنِي
O Lord-azwj! Raise me and do not Drop me, and Protect me and Help me and do not Abandon me. O Lord-azwj! If You-azwj Raise me then who is the one who can drop me, and if You-azwj Drop me then who is the one who can raise me?
وَ قَدْ عَلِمْتُ يَا إِلَهِي أَنْ لَيْسَ فِي حُكْمِكَ ظُلْمٌ وَ لَا فِي عُقُوبَتِكَ عَجَلَةٌ وَ إِنَّمَا يَعْجَلُ مَنْ يَخَافُ الْفَوْتَ وَ إِنَّمَا يَحْتَاجُ إِلَى الظُّلْمِ الضَّعِيفُ وَ قَدْ تَعَالَيْتَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ سَيِّدِي عُلُوّاً كَبِيراً
And I know, O my God-azwj, there isn’t any injustice in Your-azwj Judgment, nor any hastiness in Your-azwj Punishment, and rather he is hasty, the one who fears missing out, and rather the weak is need to the injustice, and You-azwj are Exalted from that, my Master, Exalted, Great!
فَلَا تَجْعَلْنِي لِلْبَلَاءِ غَرَضاً وَ لَا لِنَقِمَتِكَ نَصَباً وَ مَهِّلْنِي وَ نَفْسِي وَ أَقِلْنِي عَثْرَتِي وَ لَا تُتْبِعْنِي بِبَلَاءٍ عَلَى أَثَرِ بَلَاءٍ فَقَدْ تَرَى ضَعْفِي وَ قِلَّةَ حِيلَتِي وَ تَمَرُّغِي وَ تَضَرُّعِي إِلَيْكَ
Do not Make me a target for the affliction nor set up for Your-azwj Vengeance, and Respite me, and Reduce my stumbles, and do not Pursue me with the affliction upon the tracks of an affliction, for You-azwj can see my weakness and scarcity of my means, and my waddling and my beseeching to me!
يَا رَبِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ فِي هَذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ وَ هَذَا الْيَوْمِ مِنْ كُلِّ سُوءٍ فَأَعِذْنِي وَ أَسْتَجِيرُ بِكَ فَأَجِرْنِي وَ أَسْتَتِرُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّ خَلْقِكَ فَاسْتُرْنِي وَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الْعَظِيمَ إِلَّا الْعَظِيمُ وَ أَنْتَ الْعَظِيمُ الْعَظِيمُ الْعَظِيمُ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ كُلِّ عَظِيمٍ-.
O Lord-azwj! I seek Refuge with You-azwj in this night and this day from every evil, so Refuge me, and I seek shelter with You-azwj so Shelter me, and I seek concealment with You-azwj from evil of Your-azwj creatures, so Conceal me, and I seek Your-azwj Forgiveness from my sins, so Forgive for me for no one Forgives the mighty (sins) except the Might, and You-azwj are the Mighty, the Mighty, the Mighty, the Mightier than every mighty one!’’[105]

And from acts of worship on the night of Saturday for the one whom fear of the ruler is attacking him, or from others – it is reported from Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘One who is attached by a matter of a ruler or an envying enemy, let him fast on the day of Wednesday, and the Thursday, and the Friday, and let him supplicating on the night of Friday and night of Saturday, and let him say in his supplication –

فَصَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اصْرِفْهُ عَنِّي فَإِنَّكَ غِيَاثُ الْمُسْتَغِيثِينَ وَ جَارُ الْمُسْتَجِيرِينَ وَ لَجَأُ اللَّاجِئِينَ وَ أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَ.
Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww and Turn him away from me, for You-azwj are Helper of the ones seeking help, and Rescue of the ones seeking rescue, and Shelter of the shelter seekers, and most Merciful of the merciful ones!’’[106]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ مَا رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الْكَاظِمِ ع قَالَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى ع رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ص لَيْلَةَ الْأَرْبِعَاءِ فِي النَّوْمِ فَقَالَ لِي يَا مُوسَى أَنْتَ مَحْبُوسٌ مَظْلُومٌ وَ يُكَرِّرُ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثاً
And from that is what is reported from Abu Al-Hassan Al-Kazim-asws. Abu Al-Hassan Musa-asws said: ‘On the night of Wednesday I-asws saw the Prophet-saww during the sleep. He-saww said to me-asws: ‘O Musa-asws! You-asws are the imprisoned, oppressed!’, and he-saww repeated that thrice.
ثُمَّ قَالَ لَعَلَّهُ فِتْنَةٌ لَكُمْ وَ مَتاعٌ إِلى حِينٍ أَصْبِحْ غَداً صَائِماً وَ أَتْبِعْهُ بِصِيَامِ الْخَمِيسِ وَ الْجُمُعَةِ فَإِذَا كَانَ وَقْتُ الْعِشَاءَيْنِ مِنْ عَشِيَّةِ الْجُمُعَةِ فَصَلِّ بَيْنَ الْعِشَاءَيْنِ اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً تَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ الْحَمْدَ مَرَّةً وَ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً
Then he-saww said: ‘Perhaps it is a Fitna for you all and an enjoyment for a while. Wake up in the morning fasting and follow it with fasts of the Thursday and the Friday. When it is time of Al-Maghrib and Al-Isha Salat of the Friday, pray twelve Cycles Salat between Al-Maghrib and Al-Isha reciting in each Cycle Surah Al Hamd once, and Al Tawheed twelve times.
فَإِذَا صَلَّيْتَ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ فَاسْجُدْ وَ قُلْ فِي سُجُودِكَ اللَّهُمَّ يَا سَابِقَ الْفَوْتِ وَ يَا سَامِعَ الصَّوْتِ وَ يَا مُحْيِيَ الْعِظَامِ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ وَ هِيَ رَمِيمٌ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْعَظِيمِ الْأَعْظَمِ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدِكَ وَ رَسُولِكَ وَ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ الطَّيِّبِينَ الطَّاهِرِينَ وَ تُعَجِّلَ لِيَ الْفَرَجَ مِمَّا أَنَا فِيهِ
When you-asws have prayed four Cycles Salat, perform Sajdah and say in your-asws Sajdah: ‘O Allah-azwj! O Preceder to the loss, and O Listener of the voices, and O Reviver of the bones after the death and these have decayed! I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Magnificent Name, the most Magnificent to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, Your-azwj servant and Your-azwj Rasool-saww, and upon People-asws of his-saww Household, the pure, and Hasten the relief to me from what I am in!’
فَفَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَكَانَ مَا رَأَيْتَ.
I-asws did that, and it happened what you see’’.[107]

(The book) ‘Jamal Al-Usbou’ – He mentioned a report with this Salat and the supplication on the night of Saturday with a commentary and detail, and there is an increase in its beautiful supplication. We found it in books similar to it from the acts of worship reported from our Master Musa-asws Bin Ja’far-asws, may the best Salawaat be upon him-asws, and these are its words, ‘It is narrated to us by the noble Abu Ja’far Ahmad Bin Ibrahim Al-Alawy Al-Musawy, the captain at the Holy Enclosure (in Karbala), may the greetings be upon its dwellers. He said, ‘It is narrated to us by Abu Al Husayn Muhammad Bin Al-Hassan Bin Ismail Al-Iskaf, raising it by his chain to Al-Rabie who said,
اسْتَدْعَانِي الرَّشِيدُ لَيْلًا فَقَالَ لِيَ اذْهَبْ إِلَى مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ ع وَ كَانَ مَحْبُوساً فِي حَبْسِهِ فَأَطْلِقْهُ وَ احْمِلْ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الْمَالِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ مِنَ الْحُمْلَانِ وَ الثِّيَابِ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ
‘(The caliph) Al-Rasheed summoned me at night. He said to me, ‘Go to Musa-asws Bin Ja’far-asws (and he-asws was being held in his prison), and release him-asws, and carry to him-asws such and such wealth, and from the loads (of gifts), and the garments similar to that!’
فَرَاجَعْتُهُ وَ اسْتَفْهَمْتُهُ دَفَعَاتٍ فَقَالَ يَا وَيْلَكَ تُرِيدُ أَنْ أَنْقُضَ الْعَهْدَ
I reiterated to him a few times and sought to understand him. He said, ‘O woe be to you! Do you want me to break the pact?’
فَقُلْتُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ مَا الْعَهْدُ
I said, ‘O commander of the faithful, and what pact?’
قَالَ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ إِذَا أَنَا بِأَسْوَدَ أَعْظَمَ مَا يَكُونُ مِنَ السُّودَانِ قَدْ سَاوَرَنِي فَرَكِبَ صَدْرِي ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي مُوسَى بْنَ جَعْفَرٍ فِيمَا حَبَسْتَهُ فَقُلْتُ أَنَا أُطْلِقُهُ وَ أُحْسِنُ إِلَيْهِ فَأَخَذَ عَلَيَّ الْعَهْدَ وَ الْمِيثَاقَ بِذَلِكَ ثُمَّ قَامَ مِنْ صَدْرِي وَ قَدْ كَادَتْ نَفْسِي تَذْهَبُ
He said, ‘While I was asleep when (in the dream) I was with a black snake, as big as it can be from the black snakes. It wrapped me and rode upon my chest, then said to me, ‘Musa-asws Bin Ja’far-asws in what you have imprisoned him-asws!’ I said, ‘I shall release him and be good to him-asws!’ It took the pact upon me and the covenant with that. Then it stood from my chest, and my soul had almost gone!’
فَوَافَيْتُ إِلَى مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ ع فَوَجَدْتُهُ قَائِماً يُصَلِّي فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَى أَنْ فَرَغَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ ابْنُ عَمِّكَ يُقْرِئُكَ السَّلَامَ وَ قَدْ أَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَحْمِلَ إِلَيْكَ مِنَ الْمَالِ كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ مِنَ الْحُمْلَانِ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَ هَا هُوَ عَلَى الْبَابِ
I went to Musa-asws Bin Ja’far-asws and found him-asws standing, praying Salat. I sat down until he-asws was free from his-asws Salat. I said to him-asws, ‘The son of your-asws uncle conveys the greetings to You-azwj and has instructed me to carry to you such and such from the wealth, and similar to that from the provisions, and here it is at the door!’
فَقَالَ إِنْ كُنْتَ أُمِرْتَ بِغَيْرِ هَذَا فَافْعَلْهُ
He-asws said: ‘If you have been ordered with other than that, then do it!’
قُلْتُ لَا وَ حَقِّ اللَّهِ وَ حَقِّ جَدِّكَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص مَا أُمِرْتُ إِلَّا بِهَذَا
I said, ‘No by Allah-azwj! By the right of your-asws grandfather-asws Rasool-Allah-saww! I have not been ordered except with this!’
فَقَالَ أَمَّا الْمَالُ وَ الْحُمْلَانُ فَلَا حَاجَةَ لِي فِيهَا إِذَا كَانَتْ حُقُوقُ الْأُمَّةِ فِيهَا
He-asws said: ‘As for the wealth and the provisions, there is no need for me-asws regarding these when rights of the community have been (usurped) in it!’
فَقُلْتُ أَقْسَمْتُ عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا قَبِلْتَهُ فَإِنِّي أَتَخَوَّفُ عَلَيْكَ أَنْ يَغْتَاظَ
I said, ‘I vow upon you-asws! Accept it, for I fear that he might be angered!’
فَقَالَ ع افْعَلْ مَا تَرَى
He-asws said: ‘Do whatever you see fit!’
فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ الِانْصِرَافَ قُلْتُ لَهُ بِحَقِّ اللَّهِ وَ بِحَقِّ جَدِّكَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص- إِلَّا مَا أَخْبَرْتَنِي مَا كَانَ هَذَا فَقَدْ وَجَبَ حَقِّي عَلَيْكَ لِمَوْضِعِ بِشَارَتِي
When I wanted to leave, I said to him-asws, ‘By the right of Allah-azwj and by the right of your‑asws grandfather-saww Rasool-Allah-saww! Please inform me this what has happened, for my right is obligated upon you-asws due to the place of my glad tidings (to you-asws)!’
قَالَ ع نِمْتُ لَيْلَةَ الْأَرْبِعَاءِ بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ وَ قَدْ هَوَّمَتْ عَيْنَايَ فَرَأَيْتُ جَدِّي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ يَا مُوسَى أَنْتَ مَحْبُوسٌ مَظْلُومٌ
He-asws said: ‘I-asws slept on the night of Wednesday after the night Salat and my-asws eyes were drowsy. I-asws saw my-asws grandfather-saww Rasool-Allah-saww and he-saww said: ‘O Musa-asws! You‑asws are imprisoned, oppressed!’
قُلْتُ نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ
I-asws said: ‘Yes, O Rasool-Allah-saww!
فَقَالَ ص وَ إِنْ أَدْرِي لَعَلَّهُ فِتْنَةٌ لَكُمْ وَ مَتاعٌ إِلى حِينٍ أَصْبِحْ غَداً صَائِماً وَ أَتْبِعْهُ الْخَمِيسَ وَ الْجُمُعَةَ فَإِذَا كَانَ بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الْعِشَاءِ مِنْ لَيْلَةِ السَّبْتِ تُصَلِّي اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ رَكْعَةً تَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ الْحَمْدَ وَ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ اثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً
He-saww said: ‘And I know, perhaps it is a Fitna for you and a provision up to a time’ [21:111]. Wake up in the morning tomorrow fasting and follow it with (fasting) the Thursday and the Friday. When it will be after Al-Isha Salat on the night of Saturday, pray twelve Cycles Salat, reciting in each Cycle Surah Al Hamd, and Al Tawheed twelve times.
فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ فَاجْلِسْ بَعْدَ التَّسْلِيمِ وَ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ يَا سَابِقَ الْفَوْتِ وَ يَا سَامِعَ الصَّوْتِ وَ يَا مُحْيِيَ الْعِظَامِ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ وَ هِيَ رَمِيمٌ
When you-asws are free from the Salat, sit up after the Salaat and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! O Preceder to the lost, and O Listener to the voice, and O Reviver of the bones after the death and these have decayed!
أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْعَظِيمِ الْأَعْظَمِ الْأَعْظَمِ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدِكَ وَ رَسُولِكَ وَ عَلَى آلِ بَيْتِهِ الطَّاهِرِينَ وَ تُعَجِّلَ لِيَ الْفَرَجَ مِمَّا أَنَا مَمْنُوٌّ بِهِ وَ صَالٍ بِحَرِّهِ يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ-
I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Magnificent Name, the most Magnificent, the most Magnificent, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws, Your-azwj servant and Your-azwj Rasool‑saww, and upon the Progeny-asws of his-saww Household, the pure, and Hasten the relief for me, from what predicament I am with, and Connect with his-saww freedom, O Lord-azwj of the worlds!’
فَقُلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَكَانَ مَا رَأَيْتَ-
I said that, and it happened what you see!’’[108]
وَ مِنْ وَظَائِفِ يَوْمِ الْخَمِيسِ صَلَاةٌ بَعْدَ ضَاحِي نَهَارِهِ لِدَفْعِ الْغَمِّ وَ الْهَمِّ وَ قَضَاءِ الدُّيُونِ وَ قَدْ تَقَدَّمَ ذِكْرُهَا فِي الرِّوَايَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ مِنْ عَمَلِ الْأُسْبُوعِ وَ بَيْنَ الرِّوَايَتَيْنِ تَفَاوُتٌ.
And from functions on the day of Thursday is a Salat after mid-morning to repel the sorrows and the worries, and fulfill the debts, and its mention has preceded in the second report from the acts of worship of the week, and there are differences between the two reports.
حَدَّثَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الطُّوسِيُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الرَّازِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي نَجْرَانَ عَنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: كُنْتُ وَ إِسْحَاقَ بْنَ عَمَّارٍ وَ دَاوُدَ بْنَ كَثِيرٍ الرَّقِّيَّ وَ جَمَاعَةً عِنْدَ سَيِّدِنَا أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فَدَخَلَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ- فَشَكَا الْغَمَّ وَ الْهَمَّ وَ كَثْرَةَ الدَّيْنِ
It is narrated by Abu Al-Hassan Ali Bin Ahmad Al Tusi, from Ahmad Bin Ali Al Razy, from Muhammad Bin Ismail, from Abdul Rahman Bin Abu Najran, from Al Mufazzal Bin Umar who said,
‘I, and Is’haq Bin Ammar, and Dawood Bin Kaseer Al Raqqy, and a group were in the presence of our Chief Abu Abdullah-asws. Ismail Bin Qays entered and complained of the sorrows and the worries, and a lot of debts.
فَقَالَ لَهُ ع إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْخَمِيسِ بَعْدَ الضُّحَى فَاغْتَسِلْ وَ أْتِ مُصَلَّاكَ وَ صَلِّ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ تَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ وَ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ إِنَّا أَنْزَلْناهُ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ فَإِذَا سَلَّمْتَ تَقُولُ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ-
He-asws said to him: ‘When it will be the day of Thursday after the mid morning, bathe and go to your prayer mat and pray four Cycles Salat, reciting in each Cycle Surah Al Fatiha, and ten times Surah Al Qadr. When you have performed Salaam, you should say one hundred times, ‘O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww!
ثُمَّ تَرْفَعُ يَدَيْكَ نَحْوَ السَّمَاءِ وَ تَقُولُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ تُحَرِّكُ سَبَّابَتَيْكَ وَ تَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ يَا رَبِّ حَتَّى تَنْقَطِعَ النَّفَسُ ثُمَّ تَبْسُطُ يَدَيْكَ تِلْقَاءَ وَجْهِكَ وَ تَقُولُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ
Then raise your hands towards the sky and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! ten times. Then move your index fingers and say, ‘O Lord-azwj! O Lord-azwj!’, until the breath is cut. Then extend your hands towards your face and say, ‘O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj!’, ten times.
وَ تَقُولُ يَا أَفْضَلَ مَنْ رُجِيَ وَ يَا خَيْرَ مَنْ دُعِيَ وَ يَا أَجْوَدَ مَنْ أَعْطَى وَ يَا أَكْرَمَ مَنْ سُئِلَ وَ يَا مَنْ لَا يَعِزُّ عَلَيْهِ مَا يَفْعَلُهُ يَا مَنْ حَيْثُمَا دُعِيَ أَجَابَ
And you should say, ‘O best of the ones hoped to, and O best of the ones supplicated to, and O most Generous of the ones who give, and O most Benevolent of the ones asked, and O One it is not difficult to Him-azwj whatever He-azwj Does! O One, whenever He-azwj is called, Responds!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِمُوجِبَاتِ رَحْمَتِكَ وَ أَسْمَائِكَ الْعِظَامِ وَ بِكُلِّ اسْمٍ لَكَ عَظِيمٍ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِوَجْهِكَ الْكَرِيمِ وَ بِفَضْلِكَ الْقَدِيمِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِي إِذَا دُعِيتَ بِهِ أَجَبْتَ وَ إِذَا سُئِلْتَ بِهِ أَعْطَيْتَ
O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj for obligating Your-azwj Mercy, and Your-azwj Mighty Named, and with every Magnificent Name of Yours-azwj! And I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Honourable Face, and by Your-azwj ancient Grace! And I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name which when supplicated with, is answered, and when asked with, it given!
وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْعَظِيمِ الْعَظِيمِ دَيَّانِ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ مُحْيِي الْعِظَامِ وَ هِيَ رَمِيمٌ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تُيَسِّرَ لِي أَمْرِي وَ لَا تُعَسِّرَ عَلَيَّ وَ تُسَهِّلَ لِي مَطْلَبَ رِزْقِي مِنْ فَضْلِكَ الْوَاسِعِ
And I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Magnificent Name, Judge of the Day of Religion (Qiyamah), Reviver of the bones and these have decayed! And I ask You-azwj by You-azwj being Allah-azwj, there is no god except You-azwj, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Ease my affairs for me and not to let it be difficult upon me, and to Ease for me to seek my sustenance from Your-azwj vast Grace!
يَا قَاضِيَ الْحَاجَاتِ يَا قَدِيراً عَلَى مَا لَا يَقْدِرُ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ وَ أَكْرَمَ الْأَكْرَمِينَ
O Fulfiller of the needs! O Able upon what no one else is able upon apart from You-azwj! O most Merciful of the merciful ones, and most Benevolent of the benevolent ones!’’
قَالَ السَّيِّدُ أَقُولُ وَ زَادَ فِيهِ أَبُو الْفَرَجِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي قُرَّةَ رَحِمَهُمَا اللَّهُ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِقُوَّتِكَ وَ قُدْرَتِكَ وَ بِعِزَّتِكَ وَ مَا أَحَاطَ بِهِ عِلْمُكَ أَنْ تُيَسِّرَ لِي مِنْ فَضْلِكَ وَ حَلَالِ رِزْقِكَ أَوْسَعَهُ وَ أَعَمَّهُ فَضْلًا وَ خَيْرَهُ عَاقِبَةً يَا رَبِ.
The Seyyid said, ‘I am saying, and there is an increase in it by Abu Al-Faraj Muhammad Bin Abu Qurrah, may Allah-azwj Mercy them both: ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Strength, and Your-azwj Power, and by Your-azwj Might and whatever Your-azwj Knowledge encompasses with, to Ease for me from Your-azwj Grace, and Your-azwj Permissible sustenance! Expand it and Generalise its Grace and its goodly end-result, O Lord-azwj!’’[109]
51 الْمُتَهَجِّدُ، رُوِيَ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ تَعَالَى حَاجَةٌ فَلْيُصَلِّ يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ بَعْدَ الضُّحَى بَعْدَ أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ يَقْرَأُ فِي كُلِّ رَكْعَةٍ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ مَرَّةً وَ عِشْرِينَ مَرَّةً إِنَّا أَنْزَلْناهُ وَ سَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ نَحْوَ مَا مَرَّ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ وَ أَكْرَمَ الْأَكْرَمِينَ.
(The book) ‘Al Mutahajjid’ –
‘It is reported from Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘One who were to have a need for him to Allah‑azwj the Exalted, let him pray four Cycles Salat on the day of Thursday after the mid-morning after having bathed, reciting in each Cycle Surah Al Fatiha once, and Al Zilzaal twenty times’ – and he-asws continued the Hadeeth approximate to what has already passed up to his-asws words: ‘And most Benevolent of the benevolent ones!’’[110]

(The book) ‘Al Balad Al Ameen’ – Copied from the book ‘Al Agsaal’ of Ibn Ayyash who said, ‘It is reported by Is’haq Bin Ammar, and Dawood Bin Kaseer, and Dawood Bin Zumeyl, and Al Mufazzal Bin Umar, and Sayf Al Tammar, and Al Moalla Bin Khuneys, and Hammad Bin Usman, all of them together (said) in reporting it,
وَ أَنَّ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنَ قَيْسٍ الْمَوْصِلِيَّ شَكَا الْإِضَافَةَ إِلَى الصَّادِقِ ع فَأَمَرَهُ بِهَذِهِ الصَّلَاةِ وَ أَنْ يَفْعَلَهَا مِرَاراً فَفَعَلَ ذَلِكَ وَ كَثُرَ مَالُهُ وَ دَفَعَ إِلَى الصَّادِقِ ع كِيساً فِيهِ خَمْسُمِائَةِ دِينَارٍ وَ أَمَرَهُ ع أَنْ يَتَفَقَّدَ أُمُورَ إِخْوَانِهِ
‘And it is so that Ismail Bin Qays Al-Mowsily complained of the (financial) constriction to Al-Sadiq-asws, so he-asws instructed him with this Salat, and that he should be doing it repeatedly. He did that and his weal was a lot, and he handed a pouch to Al-Sadiq-asws wherein were five hundred Dinars, and he-asws instructed him to take care of the matters of his brethren.
ثُمَّ أَوْرَدَ نَحْوَ مَا فِي الْمُتَهَجِّدِ إِلَّا أَنَّ فِيهِ ثُمَّ يُحَرِّكُ سَبَّابَتَيْهِ وَ يَقُولُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ عَشْراً ثُمَّ يَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ يَا رَبِّ حَتَّى يَنْقَطِعَ النَّفَسُ

وَ فِي الْمُتَهَجِّدِ وَ فِيهِ يَا مَنْ لَا يَعِزُّ عَلَيْهِ مَا فَعَلَهُ وَ فِيهِمَا مُوجِبَاتُ بِدُونِ الْبَاءِ وَ فِيهِ بِاسْمِكَ الْعَظِيمِ الْأَعْظَمِ.
And in ‘Al-Mutahajjid’ – And in it is, ‘O One it is not difficult to Him-azwj whatever He-azwj Does’, and in them is, ‘Obligated’ without the letter ‘Ba’, and in it is, ‘By Your-azwj Magnificent Name, the most Magnificent!’’[111]

8- دَعَائِمُ الْإِسْلَامِ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع فِي الْقَوْمِ لَا يَرَوْنَ الْهِلَالَ فَيُصْبِحُونَ صِيَاماً حَتَّى يَمْضِيَ وَقْتُ صَلَاةِ الْعِيدِ مِنْ أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ فَيَشْهَدُ شُهُودٌ عُدُولٌ أَنَّهُمْ رَأَوْهُ مِنْ لَيْلَتِهِمُ الْمَاضِيَةِ قَالَ يُفْطِرُونَ وَ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنْ غَدٍ فَيُصَلُّونَ صَلَاةَ الْعِيدِ فِي أَوَّلِ النَّهَارِ.
(The book) Da’aim Al Islam’ –
‘From Ali-asws regarding the people who did not see the crescent, so they woke up in the morning fasting until time of the Salat of Eid had passed, from beginning of the day. Then, just witnesses testify that they had seen in from their night gone past. He-asws said: ‘They should break their fasts and go out from morning and pray Salat of the Eid in the beginning of the day’’.[136]
بيان: رُوِيَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِطْرُكُمْ يَوْمَ تُفْطِرُونَ وَ أَضْحَاكُمْ يَوْمَ تُضْحُونَ وَ عَرَفَتُكُمْ يَوْمَ تُعَرِّفُونَ.
Explanation (Ahadeeth only) – It is reported from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘Your Fitr (Eid) is on the day you break your fast, and your Azha (Eid) in on the day you sacrifice (animal), and your Arafaat is the day you stand in Arafaat’’.
ثُمَّ أَوْرَدَ فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ خَبَرَيْنِ أَحَدُهُمَا بِسَنَدٍ صَحِيحٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: إِذَا شَهِدَ عِنْدَ الْإِمَامِ شَاهِدَانِ أَنَّهُمَا رَأَيَا الْهِلَالَ مُنْذُ ثَلَاثِينَ يَوْماً أَمَرَ الْإِمَامُ بِالْإِفْطَارِ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ إِذَا كَانَا شَهِدَا قَبْلَ زَوَالِ الشَّمْسِ فَإِنْ شَهِدَا بَعْدَ زَوَالِ الشَّمْسِ أَمَرَ الْإِمَامُ بِالْإِفْطَارِ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ وَ أَخَّرَ الصَّلَاةَ إِلَى الْغَدِ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ.
Then two Ahadeeth have been referred regarding this subject. One of these is by a correct chain from Muhammad Bin Qays, from Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘When two witnesses testify in the presence of the imam (leader) that they had seen the crescent three days ago, the imam should order with the breaking (of the fasts) during that day, if they had testified before decline of the sun (midday). If they had testified after decline of the sun, the imam should order with break with the breaking (of the fasts) of that day and delay the Salat to the morning, praying with them’’.
وَ ثَانِيهِمَا عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يَحْيَى رَفَعَهُ قَالَ: إِذَا أَصْبَحَ النَّاسُ صِيَاماً وَ لَمْ يَرَوُا الْهِلَالَ وَ جَاءَ قَوْمٌ عُدُولٌ يَشْهَدُونَ عَلَى الرُّؤْيَةِ فَلْيُفْطِرُوا وَ لْيَخْرُجُوا مِنَ الْغَدِ أَوَّلَ النَّهَارِ إِلَى عِيدِهِمْ.
And its second is from Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Yahya, raising it, he-asws said: ‘When the people wake up in the morning fasting and they had not seen the crescent, and a group of just people come testifying upon the sighting (of the crescent), let them break and go out from the morning, beginning of the day, to their Eid (Salat)’’.
9- قُرْبُ الْإِسْنَادِ، عَنِ السِّنْدِيِّ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْبَخْتَرِيِّ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ ع قَالَ: يُكْرَهُ الْكَلَامُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَ الْإِمَامُ يَخْطُبُ وَ فِي الْفِطْرِ وَ الْأَضْحَى وَ الِاسْتِسْقَاءِ.
(The book) ‘Qurb Al Isnaad’ – from Al Sindy Bin Muhammad Bin Abu Al Bakhtary,
‘From Al-Sadiq-asws, from his-asws father-asws, from Ali-asws having said: ‘The talking is disliked on the day of Friday while the prayer leader is addressing, and during (Eid) Al-Fitr and Al-Azha, and praying for the rain’’.[137]
وَ مِنْهُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَخِيهِ ع قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ صَلَّى الْعِيدَيْنِ وَحْدَهُ أَوِ الْجُمُعَةَ هَلْ يَجْهَرُ فِيهِمَا بِالْقِرَاءَةِ
And from him, from Abdullah Bin Al-Hassan,
‘From Ali son of Ja’far-asws, from his brother-asws, he said, ‘I asked him-asws about a man who prays Salat of the two Eid(s) alone, or the Friday, ‘Should he be aloud in these with the recitation?’
قَالَ لَا يَجْهَرُ إِلَّا الْإِمَامُ-
He-asws said: ‘No one should be aloud except the prayer leader’.
وَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الْقُعُودِ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ وَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَ الْإِمَامُ يَخْطُبُ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ أَسْتَقْبِلُ الْإِمَامَ أَوْ أَسْتَقْبِلُ الْقِبْلَةَ
And I asked him-asws about the sitting during the two Eid(s) and the Friday while the prayer leader is addressing, ‘How should I do it, facing the prayer leader or facing the Qiblah?’
قَالَ اسْتَقْبِلِ الْإِمَامَ.
He-asws said: ‘Face the prayer leader’’.[138]

(The book) ‘Majaalis’ of Ibn Al Sheykh – from his father, from Ibn Busran, from Ali Bin Muhammad Al Muqry, from Yahya Bin Usman, from Saeed Bin Hammad, from Al Fazl Bin Musa, from Ibn Jareeh, from Ata’a, from Abdullah Bin Al Sa’aib who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww presented on the day of Eid. When he-saww had fulfilled his-saww Salat, he-saww said: ‘One who likes to hear the sermon, let him listen intently, and one who likes to leave, let him leave!’’[139]

(The book) ‘Ma’any Al Akhbar’ – from his father, from Ahmad Bin Idrees, from Muhammad Bin Al-Hassan, from Al-Hassan Bin Ali Bin Fazzal, from Ali Bin Yaqoub, from Marwan Bin Muslim, from Muhammad Bin Shureyh who said,
‘I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about the women going out during the two Eid(s) (for the Salat). He-asws said: ‘No, except the old woman having her carriers upon her, meaning the two socks (or slippers etc.)’’.[140]
12- الْعُيُونُ، عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ زِيَادٍ الْهَمَدَانِيِّ وَ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْمُكَتِّبِ وَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْوَرَّاقِ جَمِيعاً عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ يَاسِرٍ الْخَادِمِ قَالَ وَ حَدَّثَنِي الرَّيَّانُ بْنُ الصَّلْتِ وَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَرَفَةَ وَ صَالِحِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ كُلُّهُمْ قَالُوا
(The book) ‘Al Uyoun’ – from Ahmad Bin Ziyad Al Hamdany, and Al Husayn Bin Ibrahim Al Mukattib, and Ali Bin Abdullah Al Warraq, altogether from Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Yashir Al Khadim who said, ‘And it is narrated to me by Al Rayyan Bin Al Salt, and it is narrated to me by my father, from Muhammad Bin Arafat, and Salih Bin Saeed, all of them said,
لَمَّا اسْتَقْدَمَ الْمَأْمُونُ الرِّضَا ع- وَ عَقَدَ لَهُ الْبَيْعَةَ وَ حَضَرَ الْعِيدُ بَعَثَ إِلَى الرِّضَا ع يَسْأَلُهُ أَنْ يَرْكَبَ وَ يَحْضُرَ الْعِيدَ وَ يَخْطُبَ وَ يَطْمَئِنَّ قُلُوبُ النَّاسِ وَ يَعْرِفُوا فَضْلَهُ وَ تَقِرَّ قُلُوبُهُمْ عَلَى هَذِهِ الدَّوْلَةِ الْمُبَارَكَةِ
‘When Al-Mamoun summoned Al-Reza-asws and tied the allegiance for him-asws, and the Eid presented, he sent someone to Al-Reza-asws asking him-asws ride and present for the Eid and address, and reassure hearts of the people, and they recognised his-asws merit, and delight their hearts upon this blessed government.
فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِ الرِّضَا ع وَ قَالَ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ مَا كَانَ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَكَ مِنَ الشُّرُوطِ فِي دُخُولِي فِي هَذَا الْأَمْرِ
Al-Reza-asws sent a message to him and said: ‘I-asws know what has happened between me-asws and you of the conditions in entering into this matter!’
فَقَالَ الْمَأْمُونُ إِنَّمَا أُرِيدُ بِهَذَا أَنْ يَرْسَخَ فِي قُلُوبِ الْعَامَّةِ وَ الْجُنْدِ وَ الشَّاكِرِيَّةِ هَذَا الْأَمْرُ فَتَطْمَئِنَّ قُلُوبُهُمْ وَ يُقِرُّوا بِمَا فَضَّلَكَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى بِهِ
Al-Mamoun said, ‘But rather, I want with this to immerse hearts of the general public and the army and the associates of this matters so their hearts would be reassured and they would accept what Allah-azwj the Exalted has Graced you-asws with’.
فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يُرَادُّ الْكَلَامَ فِي ذَلِكَ فَلَمَّا أَلَحَّ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنْ أَعْفَيْتَنِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَهُوَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ وَ إِنْ لَمْ تُعْفِنِي خَرَجْتُ كَمَا كَانَ يَخْرُجُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ كَمَا خَرَجَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع-
He-asws did not cease to return the speech to him regarding that. When he insisted to him-asws, he-asws said: ‘O commander of the faithful! If you could excuse me from that it would be more beloved to me, and if you don’t excuse me, I-asws shall go out just as Rasool-Allah-saww used to go out, and just as Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws had gone out’.
قَالَ الْمَأْمُونُ اخْرُجْ كَمَا تُحِبُّ
Al-Mamoun said, ‘Come out just as you-asws like!’
وَ أَمَرَ الْمَأْمُونُ الْقُوَّادَ وَ النَّاسَ أَنْ يُبَكِّرُوا إِلَى بَابِ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ع- فَقَعَدَ النَّاسُ لِأَبِي الْحَسَنِ فِي الطُّرُقَاتِ وَ السُّطُوحِ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ وَ النِّسَاءِ وَ الصِّبْيَانِ وَ اجْتَمَعَ الْقُوَّادُ عَلَى بَابِ الرِّضَا ع-
And Al-Mamoun ordered the leaders and the people to exclaim Takbeer up to the door of Abu Al-Hassan-asws. The people sat for Abu Al-Hassan-asws in the streets and the rooves, from the mean and the women and the children, and the leaders gathered at the door of Al-Reza‑asws.
فَلَمَّا طَلَعَتِ الشَّمْسُ قَامَ الرِّضَا ع فَاغْتَسَلَ وَ تَعَمَّمَ بِعِمَامَةٍ بَيْضَاءَ مِنْ قُطْنٍ وَ أَلْقَى طَرَفاً مِنْهَا عَلَى صَدْرِهِ وَ طَرَفاً بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْهِ وَ تَشَمَّرَ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِجَمِيعِ مَوَالِيهِ افْعَلُوا مِثْلَ مَا فَعَلْتُ
When the sun emerged, Al-Reza-asws stood up and bathed, and he-asws turbaned with a white turban of cotton, and cast one end of it upon his-asws chest and an end between his-asws shoulder, and he-asws rolled up his-asws sleeves, then said to entirety of his-asws slaves: ‘Do similar to what I-asws have done!’
ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ عُكَّازَةً وَ خَرَجَ وَ نَحْنُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَ هُوَ حَافٍ قَدْ شَمَّرَ سَرَاوِيلَهُ إِلَى نِصْفِ السَّاقِ وَ عَلَيْهِ ثِيَابُهُ مُشَمَّرَةً
Then he-asws held a cane in his-asws hand and came out, and we were in front of him-asws, he-asws was bare-footed having rolled upon his-asws trousers up to half the calf, and upon him-asws were his-asws rolled up clothes.
فَلَمَّا قَامَ وَ مَشَيْنَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ وَ كَبَّرَ أَرْبَعَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ فَخُيِّلَ إِلَيْنَا أَنَّ الْهَوَاءَ وَ الْحِيطَانَ تُجَاوِبُهُ وَ الْقُوَّادُ وَ النَّاسُ عَلَى الْبَابِ قَدْ تَزَيَّنُوا وَ لَبِسُوا السِّلَاحَ وَ تَهَيَّئُوا بِأَحْسَنِ هَيْئَةٍ
When he stood up and we were walking in front of him-asws, he-asws raised his-asws head towards the sky and exclaimed four Takbeer(s). It was imagined to us that the air and the walls were responding to him-asws, and the leaders and the people were at the door having adorned and worn the weapons, and they had prepared with the most excellent of appearances.
فَلَمَّا طَلَعْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ بِهَذِهِ الصُّوَرِ حُفَاةً قَدْ تَشَمَّرْنَا وَ طَلَعَ الرِّضَا ع وَ وَقَفَ وَقْفَةً عَلَى الْبَابِ وَ قَالَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ عَلَى مَا هَدَانَا اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ عَلَى مَا رَزَقَنَا مِنْ بَهِيمَةِ الْأَنْعَامِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ عَلَى مَا أَبْلَانَا-
When we emerged to them being upon this image, bare-footed, having rolled up our trousers, and Al-Reza-asws emerged and paused, pausing at the door and said: ‘Allah-azwj is Greatest! Allah-azwj is Greatest! Allah-azwj is Greatest upon what He-azwj has Guided us! Allah-azwj is Greatest upon what He-azwj has Sustained us, from beasts, the cattle, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj upon what He-azwj has Tried us!’
وَ رَفَعَ بِذَلِكَ صَوْتَهُ وَ رُفِعَتْ أَصْوَاتُنَا فَتَزَعْزَعَتْ مَرْوُ مِنَ الْبُكَاءِ وَ الصِّيَاحِ فَقَالَهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَسَقَطَ الْقُوَّادُ عَنْ دَوَابِّهِمْ وَ رَمَوْا بِخِفَافِهِمْ لَمَّا نَظَرُوا إِلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ع وَ صَارَتْ مَرْوُ ضَجَّةً وَاحِدَةً وَ لَمْ يَتَمَالَكِ النَّاسُ مِنَ الْبُكَاءِ وَ الصَّيْحَةِ
And he-asws raised his-asws voice with that and we raised our voices. (City of) Merv shook from the wailing and the shouting. He-asws said it three times and the leaders fell from their animals and threw down their shoes when they looked at Abu Al-Hassan-asws. Merv became one clamour and the people could not control from the wailing and the shouting.
فَكَانَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ع يَمْشِي وَ يَقِفُ فِي كُلِّ عَشْرِ خُطُوَاتٍ وَقْفَةً فَيُكَبِّرُ اللَّهَ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ فَيُتَخَيَّلُ أَنَّ السَّمَاءَ وَ الْأَرْضَ وَ الْحِيطَانَ تُجَاوِبُهُ وَ بَلَغَ الْمَأْمُونَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْفَضْلُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ ذُو الرِّئَاسَتَيْنِ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنْ بَلَغَ الرِّضَا الْمُصَلَّى عَلَى هَذَا السَّبِيلِ افْتَتَنَ بِهِ النَّاسُ فَالرَّأْيُ أَنْ تَسْأَلَهُ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ
Abu Al-Hassan-asws was walking and pausing after every ten steps. He-asws paused and exclaimed Greatness of Allah-azwj four times. It was imagined that the sky and the earth and the walls were responding to him-asws, and (news of) that reached Al-Mamoun. Al-Fazl Bin Sahl, Zul Riyasateyn, said to him, ‘O commander of the faithful! If Al-Reza-asws reaches to this way, the people will be tempted by him-asws, therefore the view is that you should ask him-asws to return!’
فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِ الْمَأْمُونُ فَسَأَلَهُ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ فَدَعَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ ع بِخُفِّهِ فَلَبِسَهُ وَ رَجَعَ.
Al-Mamoun sent message to him-asws, asking him-asws to return. Abu Al-Hassan-asws called for his slippers. He-asws wore them and returned’’.[141]

‘From Al-Sadiq-asws, from his-asws father-asws, from his-asws grandfather-asws having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws addressed the people on the day of (Eid) Al-Fitr. He-asws said: ‘O you people! This day of yours is a day the good doers will be Rewarded and the evil doers will be incurring loss in it, and it is most resembling of the day with the day of your standing (Qiyamah)!
فَاذْكُرُوا بِخُرُوجِكُمْ مِنْ مَنَازِلِكُمْ إِلَى مُصَلَّاكُمْ خُرُوجَكُمْ مِنَ الْأَجْدَاثِ إِلَى رَبِّكُمْ وَ اذْكُرُوا بِوُقُوفِكُمْ فِي مُصَلَّاكُمْ وُقُوفَكُمْ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَبِّكُمْ وَ اذْكُرُوا بِرُجُوعِكُمْ إِلَى مَنَازِلِكُمْ رُجُوعَكُمْ إِلَى مَنَازِلِكُمْ فِي الْجَنَّةِ أَوِ النَّارِ
Remember with your coming out from your houses to your praying places as your coming out from the graves to your Lord-azwj, and remember with your pausing in your praying places as your pausing in front of your Lord-azwj, and remember with your returning to your houses as your returning to your houses in the Paradise or the Hellfire!
وَ اعْلَمُوا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ أَنَّ أَدْنَى مَا لِلصَّائِمِينَ وَ الصَّائِمَاتِ أَنْ يُنَادِيَهُمْ مَلَكٌ فِي آخِرِ يَوْمٍ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ أَبْشِرُوا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ فَقَدْ غُفِرَ لَكُمْ مَا سَلَفَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِكُمْ فَانْظُرُوا كَيْفَ تَكُونُونَ فِيمَا تَسْتَأْنِفُونَ.
And know, servants of Allah-azwj! The least of what is for the fasting men and the fasting women is an Angel will be calling out to them at the end of the day of a month of Ramazan: ‘Receive glad tidings, servants of Allah-azwj, for it has been Forgiven for you whatever has passed from your sins, therefore look at how you will be in what your will be resuming (your deeds)!’’[142]

(The book) ‘Al Ilal’ and ‘Al Uyoun’ – from Abdul Wahid Bin Ubdous, from Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Quteyba in ‘Ilal’ of Fazl Bin Shazan,
‘From Al-Reza-asws (in argumentation): ‘If he says, ‘Why has the day of Al-Fitr made to be an Eid (festival)?’
قِيلَ لِأَنْ يَكُونَ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ مَجْمَعاً يَجْتَمِعُونَ فِيهِ وَ يَبْرُزُونَ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَيَحْمَدُونَهُ عَلَى مَا مَنَّ عَلَيْهِمْ فَيَكُونُ يَوْمَ عِيدٍ وَ يَوْمَ اجْتِمَاعٍ وَ يَوْمَ فِطْرٍ وَ يَوْمَ زَكَاةٍ وَ يَوْمَ رَغْبَةٍ وَ يَوْمَ تَضَرُّعٍ
It will be said: ‘Because the Muslims would be uniting, gathering during is and going out to Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic. They will Praise Him-azwj upon what He-azwj has Favoured with upon them. So, it would be a day of festival, and day of unity, and day of Fitr (not fasting), and day of Zakat (purifying), and day of desire, and day of beseeching.
وَ لِأَنَّهُ أَوَّلُ يَوْمٍ مِنَ السَّنَةِ يَحِلُّ فِيهِ الْأَكْلُ وَ الشُّرْبُ لِأَنَّ أَوَّلَ شُهُورِ السَّنَةِ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْحَقِّ شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ فَأَحَبَّ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ مَجْمَعٌ يُحَمِّدُونَهُ فِيهِ وَ يُقَدِّسُونَهُ
And because it will be the first day of the year in which it is Permissible to eat and drink, because the first month of the year, in the presence of people of the truth is the month of Ramazan, so Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Loved it that during that day there should be for them a gathering they will be praising Him-azwj and extolling His-azwj Holiness during it’.

If he says, ‘Why has exclamation of Takbeer of the Salat during it to be more than in other (days)?’
قِيلَ لِأَنَّ التَّكْبِيرَ إِنَّمَا هُوَ تَعْظِيمٌ لِلَّهِ وَ تَمْجِيدٌ عَلَى مَا هَدَى وَ عَافَى كَمَا قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ وَ لِتُكْمِلُوا الْعِدَّةَ وَ لِتُكَبِّرُوا اللَّهَ عَلى ما هَداكُمْ وَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ-
It will be said: ‘Because the Takbeer, rather it is a reverence to Allah-azwj and a glorification upon what He-azwj has Guided and Pardoned, just as Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Said: in order for you to complete the number, for you to exclaim the Greatness of Allah upon what He has Guided you, and perhaps you would be thanking [2:185]’.
فَإِنْ قَالَ فَلِمَ جُعِلَ فِيهَا اثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ تَكْبِيرَةً
If he says, ‘Why have twelve exclamations of Takbeer made to be in it?’
قِيلَ لِأَنَّهُ يَكُونُ فِي رَكْعَتَيْنِ اثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ تَكْبِيرَةً فَلِذَلِكَ جُعِلَ فِيهَا اثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ تَكْبِيرَةً
It will be said, ‘Because twelve Takbeer(s) happen to be in two Cycles, for that reason twelve Takbeer(s) have been made to be in it’.
فَإِنْ قَالَ فَلِمَ جُعِلَ سَبْعٌ فِي الْأُولَى وَ خَمْسٌ فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَ لَمْ يُسَوَّ بَيْنَهُمَا
If he says, ‘Why have seven been made to be in the first (Cycle) and five in the next, and not equalised between the two?’
قِيلَ لِأَنَّ السُّنَّةَ فِي صَلَاةِ الْفَرِيضَةِ أَنْ يُسْتَفْتَحَ بِسَبْعِ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ فَلِذَلِكَ بَدَأَ هَاهُنَا بِسَبْعِ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ وَ جُعِلَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ خَمْسُ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ لِأَنَّ التَّحْرِيمَ مِنَ التَّكْبِيرِ فِي الْيَوْمِ وَ اللَّيْلَةِ خَمْسُ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ وَ لِيَكُونَ التَّكْبِيرُ فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ جَمِيعاً وَتْراً وَتْراً
It will be said: ‘Because the Sunnah in the obligatory Salat is that he should begin with seven Takbeer(s). For that reason, he should begin over here with seven Takbeer(s), and five have been made to be in the second (Cycle), because of the sanctity of the Takbeer during the day and the night of five Takbeer(s), and the Takbeer in the two Cycles together would be, odd, odd!’
فَإِنْ قَالَ فَلِمَ جُعِلَتِ الْخُطْبَةُ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ وَ جُعِلَتْ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ
If he says, ‘Why has the sermon on the day of Friday made to be before the Salat and in the two Eid(s) made to be after the Salat?’
قِيلَ لِأَنَّ الْجُمُعَةَ أَمْرٌ دَائِمٌ يَكُونُ فِي الشَّهْرِ مِرَاراً وَ فِي السَّنَةِ كَثِيراً فَإِذَا كَثُرَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى النَّاسِ مَلُّوا وَ تَرَكُوهُ وَ لَمْ يُقِيمُوا عَلَيْهِ وَ تَفَرَّقُوا عَنْهُ فَجُعِلَتْ قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ لِيُحْتَبَسُوا عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ وَ لَا يَتَفَرَّقُوا وَ لَا يَذْهَبُوا
It will be said: ‘Because the Friday is a constant matter being repeated during the month and many times during the year. When it is a lot upon the people they would be fed up and leave it and not be standing upon it, and they will separate it. So, it has been made to be before the Salat in order to withhold them upon the Salat and they will neither separate nor go away.
وَ أَمَّا الْعِيدَيْنِ فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ فِي السَّنَةِ مَرَّتَيْنِ وَ هُوَ أَعْظَمُ مِنَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَ الزِّحَامُ فِيهِ أَكْثَرُ وَ النَّاسُ فِيهِ أَرْغَبُ فَإِنْ تَفَرَّقَ بَعْضُ النَّاسِ بَقِيَ عَامَّتُهُمْ وَ هُوَ لَيْسَ بِكَثِيرٍ فَيَمَلُّوا وَ يَسْتَخِفُّوا بِهِ.
And as for the two Eid(s), rather it is twice during the year, and it is mightier than the Friday, and the crowds during it are more, and the people are more desirous regarding it. So, if some of the people were to leave, some of the people would remain, generality of them, and it is not a lot so they would be fed up and take lightly with it’’.[143]

(The book) ‘Sawaab Al Amaal’ – from Muhammad Bin Ibrahim, from Usman Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Husayn, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad Al Tusi, from Muhammad Bin Aslam, from Al Hakam, from Saeed Bin Bashir, from Qatadah, from Anas (well-known fabricator) who said,
‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘One who fasts (the month of) Ramazan and ends it with charity, and in the morning goes to the praying place with having bathed, will return with (his sins) having been Forgiven for him’’.[144]
وَ مِنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ الْقَزَّازِ مَعاً عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يُوسُفَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ شَبِيبٍ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ التَّيْمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ عَنْ سَلْمَانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ صَلَّى أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ يَوْمَ الْفِطْرِ بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الْإِمَامِ يَقْرَأُ فِي أَوَّلِهِنَ سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى فَكَأَنَّمَا قَرَأَ جَمِيعَ الْكُتُبِ كُلَّ كِتَابٍ أَنْزَلَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ
And from him, from Muhammad Bin Ibrahim, from Usman Bin Muhammad and Abu Yaqoub Al Qazaz, both together from Muhammad Bin Yusuf, from Muhammad Bin Shabeeb, from Aasim Bin Abdullah, from Simail Bin Abu Ziyad, from Suleyman Al Taymi, from Abu Usman Al Nahdy,
‘From Salman-ra, may Allah-azwj be satisfied with him-ra who said, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘One who prays four Cycle Salat on the day of Al-Fitr after Salat of the prayer leader, reciting in the first of these Surah Al A’ala, it is as if he has recited entirety of the book, every Book Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic has Revealed.
وَ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الثَّانِيَةِ وَ الشَّمْسِ وَ ضُحاها فَلَهُ مِنَ الثَّوَابِ مَا طَلَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ الشَّمْسُ وَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ وَ الضُّحى فَلَهُ مِنَ الثَّوَابِ كَأَنَّمَا أَشْبَعَ جَمِيعَ الْمَسَاكِينِ وَ دَهَّنَهُمْ وَ نَظَّفَهُمْ وَ فِي الرَّابِعَةِ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ ثَلَاثِينَ مَرَّةً غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ ذَنْبَ خَمْسِينَ سَنَةً مُسْتَقْبِلَةً وَ خَمْسِينَ سَنَةً مُسْتَدْبِرَةً.
And in the second Cycle Surah Al Shams, for him would be Rewards what the sun emerges upon; and in the third Surah Al Zoha, for him would be Rewards as if he had satiated entirety of the poor people and oiled them (their hair), and cleaned them; and in the fourth Surah Al Tawheed thirty times, Allah-azwj will Forgive for him sins of fifty years of the future and fifty years past’’.[145]
وَ تَصْدِيقُ ذَلِكَ مَا حَدَّثَنِي بِهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبَانٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: مَنْ لَمْ يُصَلِّ مَعَ الْإِمَامِ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ فَلَا صَلَاةَ لَهُ وَ لَا قَضَاءَ عَلَيْهِ.
And verification of that is what was narrated to me with by Muhammad Bin Al-Hassan, from Al Husayn Bin Al-Hassan Bin Aban, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Abu Umar, from Ibn Uzina, from Zurara,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘One who does not pray with the prayer leader in a congregation on the day of Eid, there is no Salat for him nor any payback upon him’’.[146]
16- ثَوَابُ الْأَعْمَالِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبَانٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْعِيدَيْنِ هَلْ قَبْلَهُمَا صَلَاةٌ أَوْ بَعْدَهُمَا
(The book) ‘Sawaab Al Amaal’ – from Muhammad Bin Al-Hassan Bin Al Waleed, from Al Husayn Bin Al-Hassan Bin Aban, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Muhammad Bin Sinan, from Abdullah Bin Sinan, from Al Halby who said,
‘I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about Salat of the two Eid(s), ‘Is there any Salat before these of after these?’
قَالَ لَيْسَ قَبْلَهُمَا وَ لَا بَعْدَهُمَا شَيْءٌ.
He-asws said: ‘There is neither anything before these nor after these’’.[147]
وَ مِنْهُ بِالْإِسْنَادِ الْمُتَقَدِّمِ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ فِي الْفِطْرِ وَ الْأَضْحَى قَالَ لَيْسَ فِيهِمَا أَذَانٌ وَ لَا إِقَامَةٌ وَ لَيْسَ بَعْدَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ وَ لَا قَبْلَهُمَا صَلَاةٌ.
And from him, by the previous chain from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Hammad, from Hareez Bin Muslim who said,
‘I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about the Salat during (Eid) Al-Fitr and Al-Azha. He-asws said: ‘There is neither Azaan in these nor Iqama, and there isn’t any Salat after the two Cycles nor before these’’.[148]
وَ مِنْهُ بِالْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: صَلَاةُ الْعِيدَيْنِ رَكْعَتَانِ لَيْسَ قَبْلَهُمَا وَ لَا بَعْدَهُمَا شَيْءٌ.
And from him, by the chain from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Fazalat, from Abdullah Bin Sinan,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Salat of the two Eid(s) is of two Cycles. There is nothing before these nor after these’’.[149]
وَ مِنْهُ بِالْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع لَيْسَ يَوْمَ الْفِطْرِ وَ لَا يَوْمَ الْأَضْحَى أَذَانٌ وَ لَا إِقَامَةٌ أَذَانُهُمَا طُلُوعُ الشَّمْسِ إِذَا طَلَعَتْ خَرَجُوا وَ لَيْسَ قَبْلَهُمَا وَ لَا بَعْدَهُمَا صَلَاةٌ وَ مَنْ لَمْ يُصَلِّ مَعَ إِمَامٍ فِي جَمَاعَةٍ فَلَا صَلَاةَ لَهُ وَ لَا قَضَاءَ عَلَيْهِ.
And from him, by the chain from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Umar Bin Uzina, from Zurara who said,
‘Abu Ja’far-asws said: ‘There isn’t on the day of (Eid) Al-Fitr nor the day of (Eid) Al-Azha, neither an Azan nor an Iqama. Their Azan is emergence of the sun. When it emerges, they should go out, and there is no Salat before these nor after these; and the one who does not pray with the prayer leader in congregation, there is no Salat for him nor any payback upon him’’.[150]
17- فِقْهُ الرِّضَا، قَالَ ع اعْلَمْ يَرْحَمُكَ اللَّهُ أَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ وَاجِبٌ فَإِذَا طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ مِنْ يَوْمِ الْعِيدِ فَاغْتَسِلْ وَ هُوَ أَوَّلُ أَوْقَاتِ الْغُسْلِ ثُمَّ إِلَى وَقْتِ الزَّوَالِ وَ الْبَسْ أَنْظَفَ ثِيَابِكَ وَ تَطَيَّبْ وَ اخْرُجْ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى وَ ابْرُزْ تَحْتَ السَّمَاءِ مَعَ الْإِمَامِ فَإِنَّ صَلَاةَ الْعِيدَيْنِ مَعَ الْإِمَامِ مَفْرُوضَةٌ وَ لَا يَكُونُ إِلَّا بِإِمَامٍ وَ بِخُطْبَةٍ
(The book) ‘Fiqh Al-Reza-asws’ – ‘May Allah-azwj Mercy you! Know that the Salat during the two Eid(s) is obligatory. So when the dawn emerges on the day of Eid, bathe, and it is the beginning of the timings of the bathing, then up to the time of the midday, and wear cleanest of your clothes, and apply perfume and go out to the praying place, and go out beneath the (open) sky with the prayer leader, for the Salat of the two Eid(s) is obligatory with the prayer leader and cannot take place except with a prayer leader and a sermon!’
وَ قَدْ رُوِيَ فِي الْغُسْلِ إِذَا زَالَتِ اللَّيْلُ يُجْزِئُ مِنْ غُسْلِ الْعِيدَيْنِ وَ صَلَاةُ الْعِيدَيْنِ رَكْعَتَانِ وَ لَيْسَ فِيهِمَا أَذَانٌ وَ لَا إِقَامَةٌ وَ الْخُطْبَةُ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ فِي جَمِيعِ الصَّلَوَاتِ غَيْرَ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ فَإِنَّهَا قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ
And it has been reported regarding the bathing – ‘When the night declines (midnight), it suffices from bathing for the Eid(s), and Salat of the Eid(s) is of two cycles, and there is neither Azan in these nor an Iqama, and the sermon is after the Salat in entirety of the Salat(s) other than the day of Friday, for it is before the Salat.
وَ قَرَأَ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى هَلْ أَتاكَ حَدِيثُ الْغاشِيَةِ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ وَ الشَّمْسِ أَوْ سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ- وَ تُكَبِّرُ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى بِسَبْعِ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ خَمْسَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ
And he recited in the first Cycle Surah Al Ghashiya, and in the second Al Shams or Al A’ala; and the Takbeer(s) in the first Cycle are seven exclamations, and in the second five exclamations.
تَقْنُتُ بَيْنَ كُلِّ تَكْبِيرَتَيْنِ وَ الْقُنُوتُ أَنْ تَقُولَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً عَبْدُهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ ص
You should perform Qunout between every two Takbeer(s), and the Qunout is that you should say, ‘I testify that there is no god except Allah-azwj Alone, there is no associate for Him-azwj, and that Muhammad-saww is His-azwj servant and His-azwj Rasool-saww!
اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ أَهْلُ الْكِبْرِيَاءِ وَ الْعَظَمَةِ وَ أَهْلُ الْجُودِ وَ الْجَبَرُوتِ وَ أَهْلُ الْعَفْوِ وَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ وَ أَهْلُ التَّقْوَى وَ الرَّحْمَةِ
O Allah-azwj! You-azwj are rightful of the Greatness and the Magnificent, and rightful of the Generousity and the Force, and rightful of the Pardon and the Forgiveness, and rightful of being feared and the Mercy!
أَسْأَلُكَ فِي هَذَا الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي جَعَلْتَهُ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ عِيداً وَ لِمُحَمَّدٍ ذُخْراً وَ مَزِيداً أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ وَ عَلَى آلِهِ
I ask You-azwj during this day which You-azwj have Made it as an Eid for the Muslims, and a treasure and an increase for Muhammad-saww, to Send Salawaat upon him-saww and upon his‑saww Progeny-asws!
وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِهَذَا الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي شَرَّفْتَهُ وَ كَرَّمْتَهُ وَ عَظَّمْتَهُ وَ فَضَّلْتَهُ بِمُحَمَّدٍ ص أَنْ تَغْفِرَ لِي وَ لِجَمِيعِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ وَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَ الْمُسْلِمَاتِ الْأَحْيَاءِ مِنْهُمْ وَ الْأَمْوَاتِ إِنَّكَ مُجِيبُ الدَّعَوَاتِ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
And I ask You-azwj by this day which You-azwj have Ennobled it, and Honoured it, and Magnified it, and Preferred it, by Muhammad-saww, to Forgive for me and for entirety of the believing men and the believing women, and the Muslim men and the Muslim women, the living from them and the dead. You-azwj are Responder to the supplications, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ فَاجْتَهِدْ فِي الدُّعَاءِ ثُمَّ ارْقَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَاخْطُبْ بِالنَّاسِ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَؤُمُّ بِالنَّاسِ وَ مَنْ لَمْ يُدْرِكْ مَعَ الْإِمَامِ الصَّلَاةَ فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ إِعَادَةٌ وَ صَلَاةُ الْعِيدَيْنِ فَرِيضَةٌ وَاجِبَةٌ مِثْلُ صَلَاةِ يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ إِلَّا عَلَى خَمْسَةٍ الْمَرِيضِ وَ الْمَرْأَةِ وَ الْمَمْلُوكِ وَ الصَّبِيِّ وَ الْمُسَافِرِ
When you are free from the Salat, then strive in the supplication, then ascend the pulpit and address the people if you were leading the people; and the one who does not attain the Salat with the prayer leader, there isn’t any repeating upon him; and the Salat of the Eid(s) is a necessary obligation like the Salat on the day of Friday, except upon five – the sick, and the women, and the slave, and the children, and the traveller.
وَ مَنْ لَمْ يُدْرِكْ مَعَ الْإِمَامِ رَكْعَةً فَلَا جُمُعَةَ لَهُ وَ لَا عِيدَ لَهُ وَ عَلَى مَنْ يَؤُمُّ الْجُمُعَةَ إِذَا فَاتَهُ مَعَ الْإِمَامِ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ كَمَا كَانَ يُصَلِّي فِي غَيْرِ الْجُمُعَةِ
And one who does not achieve one Cycle of Salat with the prayer leader, there is neither Friday for him nor Eid for him and it is upon the one who leads the Friday; when he misses it with the prayer leader, he should pray four Cycles just as he had been praying during other than the Friday’.
وَ رُوِيَ أَنَّ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع- صَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ صَلَاةَ الْعِيدِ فَكَبَّرَ فِي الرَّكْعَةِ الْأُولَى بِثَلَاثِ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ وَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ بِخَمْسِ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ وَ قَرَأَ فِيهِمَا بِ سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى- وَ هَلْ أَتاكَ حَدِيثُ الْغاشِيَةِ
And it is reported that Amir Al-Momineen-asws prayed with the people the Eid Salat. He-asws exclaimed Takbeer in the first Cycle with three exclamation, and in the second with five exclamations, and he-asws recited in these with Surah Al A’ala and Al Ghashiya.
وَ رُوِيَ أَنَّهُ كَبَّرَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ بِخَمْسٍ وَ رَكَعَ بِالْخَامِسَةِ وَ قَنَتَ بَيْنَ كُلِّ تَكْبِيرَتَيْنِ حَتَّى إِذَا فَرَغَ دَعَا وَ هُوَ مُسْتَقْبِلُ الْقِبْلَةِ ثُمَّ خَطَبَ
And it is reported that he-asws exclaimed in the second with five and performed Ruk’u with the fifth, he-asws performed Qunout between every two Takbeer(s) until when he-asws was free, he‑asws supplicated while he-asws was facing the Qiblah, then he-asws addressed.
وَ قَالَ ع فِي مَوْضِعٍ آخَرَ إِذَا أَصْبَحْتَ يَوْمَ الْفِطْرِ اغْتَسِلْ وَ تَطَيَّبْ وَ تَمَشَّطْ وَ الْبَسْ أَنْظَفَ ثِيَابِكَ وَ أَطْعِمْ شَيْئاً مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ إِلَى الْجَبَّانَةِ فَإِذَا أَرَدْتَ الصَّلَاةَ فَابْرُزْ إِلَى تَحْتِ السَّمَاءِ وَ قُمْ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ وَ لَا تَقُمْ عَلَى غَيْرِهَا وَ أَكْثِرْ مِنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ وَ التَّضَرُّعِ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ سَلْهُ أَنْ لَا يُجْعَلَ مِنْكَ آخِرَ الْعَهْدِ.
And he-asws said in another place: ‘When you come to the morning of Al-Fitr, bathe, and apply perfume, and comb your hair, and wear cleanest of your clothes, and eat something before you to go out to the graveyard. When you intend the Salat, go out to beneath the (open) sky and stand upon the ground, and do not stand upon anything else, and frequent from the Zikr of Allah-azwj and the beseeching to Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, and ask Him-azwj not to Make it the last pact from you’’.[151]
18- الْعَيَّاشِيُّ، عَنِ الْمَحَامِلِيِّ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فِي قَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى خُذُوا زِينَتَكُمْ عِنْدَ كُلِّ مَسْجِدٍ قَالَ الْأَرْدِيَةُ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ وَ الْجُمُعَةِ.
(The book) ‘Al Ayyashi’ – From Al Mahamily, from one of his companions,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws regarding Words of Allah-azwj the Exalted: Take to your adornments at every Masjid, [7:31]. He-asws said: ‘(Wearing) the robes during the Eid(s) and the Friday’’.[152]
19- رِجَالُ الْكَشِّيِّ، عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْقُرَشِيِّ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا قَالَ: كَانَ الْمُعَلَّى بْنُ خُنَيْسٍ ره إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْعِيدِ خَرَجَ إِلَى الصَّحْرَاءِ شَعِثاً مُغْبَرّاً فِي ذُلِّ لَهُوفٍ فَإِذَا صَعِدَ الْخَطِيبُ الْمِنْبَرَ مَدَّ يَدَيْهِ نَحْوَ السَّمَاءِ ثُمَّ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ هَذَا مَقَامُ خُلَفَائِكَ وَ أَصْفِيَائِكَ وَ مَوْضِعُ أُمَنَائِكَ الَّذِينَ خَصَصْتَهُمْ بِهَا انْتَزَعُوهَا
(The book) ‘Rijal’ of Al Kashy – from Ahmad Bin Ibrahim Al Qureyshi, from one of our companions who said,
‘Al-Moalla Bin Khuneys was such, whenever it was the day of Eid, he would go out to the desert unkempt, dusty, in humiliating grief. When the preacher ascended the pulpit, he would extend his hands towards the sky, then said, ‘O Allah-azwj! This is the position of Your-azwj Caliphs and Your-azwj Elites, and place of Your-azwj Trustees, those who have been snatched of what You-azwj have Specialised them-asws with!
وَ أَنْتَ الْمُقَدِّرُ لِلْأَشْيَاءِ لَا يُغْلَبُ قَضَاؤُكَ وَ لَا يُجَاوَزُ الْمَحْتُومُ مِنْ قَدَرِكَ كَيْفَ شِئْتَ وَ أَنَّى شِئْتَ عِلْمُكَ فِي إِرَادَتِكَ كَعِلْمِكَ فِي خَلْقِكَ حَتَّى عَادَ صِفْوَتُكَ وَ خُلَفَاؤُكَ مَغْلُوبِينَ مَقْهُورِينَ مُسْتَتِرِينَ
And You-azwj are Determiner of the things. There is no overcoming Your-azwj Decree, nor can the Ordained of Your-azwj Determination be surpassed however You-azwj Desire, and whenever You-azwj Desire. Your-azwj Knowledge in Your-azwj Will is like Your-azwj Knowledge regarding Your‑azwj creation until the return of Your-azwj Elites and Your-azwj Caliphs, the overcome, the coerced, concealed.

They-asws are seeing Your-azwj Judgments replaced, and Your-azwj Book discarded, and Your-azwj Obligations altered from aspects of Your-azwj Laws and Sunnah of Your-azwj Prophet-saww, may Your-azwj Salawaat be upon him-saww, neglected.
اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنْ أَعْدَاءَهُمْ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْآخِرِينَ وَ الْغَادِينَ وَ الرَّائِحِينَ وَ الْمَاضِينَ وَ الْغَابِرِينَ اللَّهُمَّ الْعَنْ جَبَابِرَةَ زَمَانِنَا وَ أَشْيَاعَهُمْ وَ أَتْبَاعَهُمْ وَ أَحْزَابَهُمْ وَ إِخْوَانَهُمْ إِنَّكَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ.
O Allah-azwj! Curse their-asws enemies, from the former ones and the latter ones, and the present ones and the absent ones, the ones past and ones of the future! O Allah-azwj! Curse tyrants of our era, and their loyalists, and their followers, and their allies, and their brothers! You-azwj are Able upon all things!’’[153]

(The book) ‘Al Muqnie’ –
‘It is reported that the prayer leader should walk on the day of Eid and he should not aim for the praying place riding nor pray upon a carpet, and he should perform Sajdah upon the ground, and when he walks, he should shoot his glance towards the sky and exclaim Takbeer between his steps, four exclamations, then he should walk’’.[161]
وَ رُوِيَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص كَانَ يَلْبَسُ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ بُرْداً وَ يَعْتَمُّ شَاتِياً كَانَ أَوْ قَائِظاً.
And it is reported that the Prophet-saww, during the two Eid(s), would wear a cloak and turban whether it was winter or summer’’.[162]
وَ رُوِيَ أَنَّ أَوَّلَ مَنْ غَيَّرَ الْخُطْبَةَ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ فَجَعَلَهَا قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّهُ لَمَّا أَحْدَثَ أَحْدَاثَهُ الَّتِي قُتِلَ بِهَا كَانَ إِذَا صَلَّى تَفَرَّقَ عَنْهُ النَّاسُ وَ قَالُوا مَا نَصْنَعُ بِخُطْبَتِهِ وَ قَدْ أَحْدَثَ مَا أَحْدَثَ فَجَعَلَهَا قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ.
And it is reported that the first one to change the sermon during the Eid(s) and made it before the Salat, was Usman Bin Affan, and that was because when he innovated his innovation which he was killed for, whenever he led the Salat the people dispersed from him and they said, ‘What have we to do with his sermon and he has innovated what he has innovated?’ So, he made it to be before the Salat’’.[163]

And from him who said,
‘We are reporting by our chains to Al-Tal’akbury, may Allah-azwj be Pleased with him, by his chain to Al-Reza-asws. I said to him-asws, ‘O my Chief! We are reporting from the Prophet-saww that whenever he-saww took to a road, he-saww would not return in it and took in another’.
فَقَالَ هَكَذَا كَانَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ص يَفْعَلُ وَ هَكَذَا أَفْعَلُ أَنَا وَ هَكَذَا كَانَ أَبِي ع يَفْعَلُ وَ هَكَذَا فَافْعَلْ فَإِنَّهُ أَرْزَقُ لَكَ وَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ص يَقُولُ هَذَا أَرْزَقُ لِلْعِبَادِ.

(The book) ‘Da’aim Al Islam’ –
‘From Ali-asws, he-asws used to dislike eating something on the day of (Eid) Al-Azha until he-asws returned from the praying place’’.[170]
وَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: مَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ وَ يَشْرَبَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى يَوْمَ الْفِطْرِ فَلْيَفْعَلْ وَ لَا يَطْعَمْ يَوْمَ الْأَضْحَى حَتَّى يُضَحِّيَ.

وَ عَنْهُ ع أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي دُعَائِهِ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ وَ الْجُمُعَةِ اللَّهُمَّ مَنْ تَهَيَّأَ أَوْ تَعَبَّأَ أَوْ أَعَدَّ أَوِ اسْتَعَدَّ لِوِفَادَةٍ عَلَى مَخْلُوقٍ رَجَاءَ رِفْدِهِ وَ جَائِزَتِهِ وَ نَوَافِلِهِ فَإِلَيْكَ يَا سَيِّدِي كَانَ تَهَيُّئِي وَ إِعْدَادِي وَ اسْتِعْدَادِي رَجَاءَ رِفْدِكَ وَ جَائِزَتِكَ وَ نَوَافِلِكَ
And from him-asws, he-asws used to say in his-asws supplication during the Eid(s) and the Friday: ‘O Allah-azwj! There is one who prepares, or makes arrangements, or gets ready, or equips for going to a created being hoping for his rewards, and his awards, and his gifts, so to You-azwj, O my Master, would be my preparation, and my readiness, and my equipping hoping for You‑azwj Rewards, and Your-azwj Awards, and Your-azwj Gifts!
فَإِنِّي لَمْ آتِكَ بِعَمَلٍ صَالِحٍ قَدَّمْتُهُ وَ لَا شَفَاعَةِ مَخْلُوقٍ رَجَوْتُهُ أَتَيْتُكَ مُقِرّاً بِالذُّنُوبِ وَ الْإِسَاءَةِ عَلَى نَفْسِي يَا عَظِيمُ يَا عَظِيمُ اغْفِرْ لِيَ الذَّنْبَ الْعَظِيمَ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذَّنْبَ الْعَظِيمَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ يَا عَظِيمُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ.
Surely, I have no come to You-azwj with righteous deed I have send ahead, nor intercession of a created being I am hoping for. I have come to You-azwj acknowledging the sins and the evil deeds upon myself! O Might! O Mighty! Forgive the mighty sins for me, for no one forgives the mighty sins except You-azwj, O Almighty! There is no god except You-azwj!’’[172]
وَ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: يَنْبَغِي لِمَنْ خَرَجَ إِلَى الْعِيدِ أَنْ يَلْبَسَ أَحْسَنَ ثِيَابِهِ وَ يَتَطَيَّبَ بِأَحْسَنِ طِيبَةٍ
And from Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws having said: ‘It is befitting for the one who goes out to the Eid (Salat) that he wears best of his clothes, and perfumes with best perfume’.

قَالَ وَ يَنْبَغِي لِلْإِمَامِ أَنْ يَلْبَسَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ بُرْداً وَ أَنْ يَعْتَمَّ شَاتِياً كَانَ أَوْ صَائِفاً.
He-asws said: ‘And it is befitting for the prayer leader that on the day of Eid he should wear a cloak and turban, whether it was winter or summer’’.[173]
وَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص أَنَّهُ رَخَّصَ فِي إِخْرَاجِ السِّلَاحِ لِلْعِيدَيْنِ إِذَا حَضَرَ الْعَدُوُّ.

And from Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws having said: ‘And during the Eid(s) he should neither pray in the roof nor in the house, for Rasool-Allah-saww used to go out during these until he came out to horizon of the sky and placed his-saww forehead upon the ground’’.[176]
وَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع أَنَّهُ قِيلَ لَهُ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ لَوْ أَمَرْتَ مَنْ يُصَلِّي بِضُعَفَاءِ النَّاسِ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ
And from Ali-asws, it was said to him-asws, ‘O Amir Al-Momineen-asws! If you-asws could instruct someone to prays with the weak people on the day of Eid in the Masjid!’

And from Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww allowed for the slave women to go out for the Eid(s) for the exposure for the sustenance, meaning the marriage’’.[178]
وَ عَنْهُ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: يَسْتَقْبِلُ النَّاسُ الْإِمَامَ إِذَا خَطَبَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ وَ يُنْصِتُونَ.
And from him-asws having said: ‘The people should face the prayer leader when he addresses on the day of Eid and they should be listening’’.[179]
وَ عَنْهُ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: لَيْسَ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ أَذَانٌ وَ لَا إِقَامَةٌ وَ لَا نَافِلَةٌ وَ يَبْدَأُ فِيهِمَا بِالصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ خِلَافَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَ صَلَاةُ الْعِيدَيْنِ رَكْعَتَانِ يَجْهَرُ فِيهِمَا بِالْقِرَاءَةِ.
And from him-asws having said: ‘During the Eid(s) there is neither Azan, nor Iqama, nor optional Salat, and he should begin during these with the Salat before the sermon opposite to the Friday, and Salat of the Eid(s) is of two Cycles being aloud in these with the recitations’’.[180]
وَ عَنْهُ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: التَّكْبِيرُ فِي صَلَاةِ الْعِيدِ يَبْدَأُ بِتَكْبِيرَةٍ يَفْتَتِحُ فِيهَا بِالْقِرَاءَةِ وَ هِيَ تَكْبِيرَةُ الْإِحْرَامِ ثُمَّ يَقْرَأُ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ وَ الشَّمْسِ وَ ضُحاها وَ يُكَبِّرُ خَمْسَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ
And from him-asws having said: ‘The Takbeer in Salat of the Eid – He should begin with the Takbeer beginning in it with the recitation, and it is Takbeer of the consecration. Then he should recite Surah Al Fatiha, and Al Shams, and Al Zoha, and he should exclaim five Takbeer(s).
ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ لِلرُّكُوعِ فَيَرْكَعُ وَ يَسْجُدُ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ فَيَقْرَأُ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ وَ هَلْ أَتاكَ حَدِيثُ الْغاشِيَةِ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ أَرْبَعَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ ثُمَّ يُكَبِّرُ تَكْبِيرَةَ الرُّكُوعِ وَ يَرْكَعُ وَ يَسْجُدُ وَ يَتَشَهَّدُ وَ يُسَلِّمُ وَ يَقْنُتُ بَيْنَ كُلِّ تَكْبِيرَتَيْنِ قُنُوتاً خَفِيفاً.
Then he should exclaim Takbeer for the Ruk’u and perform Ruk’u and Sajdah, then he should stand and recite Surah Al Fatiha and Surah Al Ghashiya; then he should exclaim four Takbeer(s), then exclaim Takbeer for the Ruk’u and perform Ruk’u and Sajdah, and Tashahhud, and Salaam, and he should perform Qunout between every two Takbeer(s), a light Qunout’’.[181]
وَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا انْصَرَفَ مِنَ الْمُصَلَّى يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ لَمْ يَنْصَرِفْ عَلَى الطَّرِيقِ الَّذِي خَرَجَ عَلَيْهِ.
And from Rasool-Allah-saww, whenever he-saww dispersed from the prayer mat on the day of Eid, did not leave going upon the road which he-saww had come out it’’.[182]
وَ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمَا أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ لَا يَشْهَدُ الْعِيدَ هَلْ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ فِي بَيْتِهِ
And from Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon them-asws both, he-asws was asked about the man not attending the Eid (Salat), ‘Is it upon him to pray in his house?’
قَالَ نَعَمْ وَ لَا صَلَاةَ إِلَّا مَعَ إِمَامٍ عَدْلٍ وَ مَنْ لَمْ يَشْهَدْ مِنْ رَجُلٍ أَوِ امْرَأَةٍ صَلَّى أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ رَكْعَتَيْنِ لِلْعِيدِ وَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ لِلْخُطْبَةِ وَ كَذَلِكَ مَنْ لَمْ يَشْهَدِ الْعِيدَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَوَادِي يُصَلُّونَ لِأَنْفُسِهِمْ أَرْبَعاً.
He-asws said: ‘Yes, and there is no Salat except with a just prayer leader; and one from a man or a woman who does not attend should pray four Cycles Salat, two Cycles for the Eid and two Cycles for the sermon, and like that is the one who does not attend the Eid from people of the valleys, they should pray four (Cycles) for themselves’’.[183]
وَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: لَيْسَ عَلَى الْمُسَافِرِ عِيدٌ وَ لَا جُمُعَةٌ.
And from Ali-asws having said: ‘There is neither Eid (Salat) nor Friday (Salat) upon the traveller’’.[184]
وَ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: فِي صَلَاةِ الْعِيدَيْنِ إِذَا كَانَ الْقَوْمُ خَمْسَةً فَصَاعِداً مَعَ إِمَامٍ فِي مِصْرٍ فَعَلَيْهِمْ أَنْ يُجَمِّعُوا لِلْجُمُعَةِ وَ الْعِيدَيْنِ.
And from Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws having said: ‘In the Eid Salat, when the group were to be of five (persons) and more, being with a prayer leader in a city, upon them is to congregate for the Friday (Salat) and the Eid(s) Salat’’.[185]
وَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع أَنَّهُ اجْتَمَعَ فِي خِلَافَتِهِ عِيدَانِ فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ جُمُعَةٌ وَ عِيدٌ فَصَلَّى بِالنَّاسِ صَلَاةَ الْعِيدِ ثُمَّ قَالَ قَدْ أَذِنْتُ لِمَنْ كَانَ مَكَانُهُ قَاصِياً يَعْنِي مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَوَادِي أَنْ يَنْصَرِفَ ثُمَّ صَلَّى الْجُمُعَةَ بِالنَّاسِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ.
And from Ali-asws, during his-asws Caliphate two Eid(s) had gathered during one day, Friday and Eid. He-asws prayed the Eid Salat with the people, then said: ‘I-asws have granted permission for the one whose place was far away, meaning from people of the valleys, that he can leave’. Then he-asws prayed the Friday Salat with the people in the Masjid’’.[186]

Explanation (Ahadeeth only) – A correct (Hadeeth) by Al Halby (in Al Faqeeh), and it evidence’s upon the doctrine of Ibn Al Juneyd, reported by Is’haq Bin Ammar (in Al Tahzeeb), from Ja’far-asws, from his-asws father-asws: ‘Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws had said: ‘When two Eid(s) gather for the people during one day, it is befitting for the prayer leader to say to the people in his first sermon, ‘Two Eid(s) have gathered for you, so I am going to pray these together. The one who place was far away and he would like to leave from the other, I hereby grant permission to him’’.
28- الْهِدَايَةُ، وَ اغْتَسِلْ فِي الْعِيدَيْنِ جَمِيعاً تَطَيَّبْ وَ تَمَشَّطْ وَ الْبَسْ أَنْظَفَ ثَوْبٍ مِنْ ثِيَابِكَ وَ ابْرُزْ إِلَى تَحْتِ السَّمَاءِ وَ قُمْ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ وَ لَا تَقُمْ عَلَى غَيْرِهَا وَ كَبِّرْ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ تَقُولُ بَيْنَ كُلِّ تَكْبِيرَتَيْنِ مَا شِئْتَ مِنْ كَلَامٍ حَسَنٍ مِنْ تَحْمِيدٍ وَ تَهْلِيلٍ وَ دُعَاءٍ وَ مَسْأَلَةٍ
(The book) ‘Al Hidaya’ –
And bathe during all the Eid(s), applying perfume, and combing the hair, and wearing cleanest clothes from your clothes, and go out to beneath the (open) sky and stand upon the ground, and do not stand upon anything else, and exclaim Takbeer(s) saying between every two exclamation whatever you desire from good speech, from praising (Allah-azwj), and extolling Oneness, and supplication, and requesting.
وَ تَقْرَأُ الْحَمْدَ وَ سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى وَ تَرْكَعُ بِالسَّابِعَةِ وَ تَسْجُدُ وَ تَقُومُ وَ تَقْرَأُ الْحَمْدَ وَ الشَّمْسِ وَ ضُحاها وَ تُكَبِّرُ خَمْسَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ وَ تَرْكَعُ بِالْخَامِسَةِ وَ تَسْجُدُ وَ تَتَشَهَّدُ وَ تُسَلِّمُ
And recite (Surah) Al Hamd and Al A’ala, and perform Ruk’u with the seventh, and perform Sajdah and stand and recited Surah Al Hamd, and Al Shams, and Al Zoha, and exclaim five Takbeer(s), and perform Ruk’u with the fifth, and perform Sajdah, and Tashahhud, and Salaam.
وَ إِنْ صَلَّيْتَ جَمَاعَةً بِخُطْبَةِ صَلَّيْتَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَ إِنْ صَلَّيْتَ بِغَيْرِ خُطْبَةٍ صَلَّيْتَ أَرْبَعاً بِتَسْلِيمَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ.
And if you pray in congregation with a sermon, pray two Cycles, and if you pray without a sermon, pray four with one Salaam’’.[187]
وَ قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع مَنْ فَاتَهُ الْعِيدُ فَلْيُصَلِّ أَرْبَعاً.
And Amir Al-Momineen-asws said: ‘One who misses the Eid (Salat), let him pray four (Cycles)’’.[188]
وَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع مِنَ السُّنَّةِ أَنْ يَبْرُزَ أَهْلُ الْأَمْصَارِ مِنْ أَمْصَارِهِمْ إِلَى الْعِيدَيْنِ إِلَّا أَهْلَ مَكَّةَ فَإِنَّهُمْ يُصَلُّونَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ وَ مِنَ السُّنَّةِ أَنْ يَطْعَمَ الرَّجُلُ فِي الْفِطْرِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى وَ فِي الْأَضْحَى بَعْدَ مَا يَنْصَرِفُ وَ لَا صَلَاةَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الْعِيدِ حَتَّى تَزُولَ الشَّمْسُ.
And Abu Ja’far-asws said: ‘From the Sunnah is that people of the city should go out from their city to the Eid(s) except people of Makkah, for they should pray in the Sacred Masjid; and from the Sunnah is that the man should eat in (Eid) Al-Fitr before he goes out to the praying place, and in (Eid) Al-Azha after leaving; and there is no Salat on the day of Eid after the Eid Salat until the sun declines (midday)’’.[189]
29- الْمُتَهَجِّدُ، صِفَةُ صَلَاةِ الْعِيدِ أَنْ يَقُومَ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ فَيَسْتَفْتِحَ الصَّلَاةَ يَتَوَجَّهُ فِيهَا وَ يُكَبِّرُ تَكْبِيرَةَ الِافْتِتَاحِ فَإِذَا تَوَجَّهَ قَرَأَ الْحَمْدَ وَ سَبِّحِ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ الْأَعْلَى- ثُمَّ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ بِالتَّكْبِيرِ فَإِذَا كَبَّرَ قَالَ
(The book) ‘Al Mutahajjid’ –
‘Description of the Salat of Eid – He should stand facing the Qiblah and begin the Salat concentrating in it and exclaim Takbeer of the beginning. When he concentrates, he should recite Surah Al Hamd and Al A’ala, then he should raise his hands with the Takbeer. When he exclaims Takbeer he should say: –
اللَّهُمَّ أَهْلَ الْكِبْرِيَاءِ وَ الْعَظَمَةِ وَ أَهْلَ الْجُودِ وَ الْجَبَرُوتِ وَ أَهْلَ الْعَفْوِ وَ الرَّحْمَةِ وَ أَهْلَ التَّقْوَى وَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ
‘O Allah-azwj, rightful of the Greatness and the Magnificence, and rightful of the Generousity and the Force, and rightful of the Pardon and the Mercy, and rightful of being feared and the Forgiveness!

I ask You-azwj by the right of this day which You-azwj have Made it as an Eid for the Muslims and a treasure and an increase for Muhammad-saww, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Insert me into every goodness You-azwj had Inserted Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-asws into, and to Extract me from every evil You-azwj had Extracted Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww from, may Your‑azwj Salawaat be upon him-saww and upon them-asws!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ خَيْرَ مَا سَأَلَكَ بِهِ عِبَادُكَ الصَّالِحُونَ وَ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِمَّا اسْتَعَاذَ مِنْهُ عِبَادُكَ الصَّالِحُونَ-
O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj for goodness what Your-azwj righteous servants had asked You-azwj for, and I seek Refuge with You-azwj from what Your-azwj righteous servants had sought Refuge from!’’
ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ الصَّلَاةَ عَلَى الْمَشْهُورِ وَ ذَكَرَ فِي الثَّانِيَةِ وَ الشَّمْسِ وَ ضُحاها.
Then he-asws mentioned the Salat based upon the well-known and mentioned in the second (Cycle, Surah) Al Shams’’.[190]
الْإِقْبَالُ، وَ اعْلَمْ أَنَّنَا وَقَفْنَا عَلَى عِدَّةِ رِوَايَاتٍ فِي صِفَاتِ صَلَاةِ الْعِيدِ بِإِسْنَادِنَا إِلَى ابْنِ أَبِي قُرَّةَ وَ إِلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرِ بْنِ بَابَوَيْهِ وَ إِلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ الطُّوسِيِّ- وَ هَا نَحْنُ ذَاكِرُونَ رِوَايَةً وَاحِدَةً ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ رِوَايَةَ الْمُتَهَجِّدِ كَمَا نَقَلْنَا.
(The book) ‘Al Iqbal’ –
‘And know that we have paused upon a number of reports regarding description of the Eid Salat by our chains to Ibn Abu Qurra, and to Abu Ja’far Bin Babuwayh, and to Abu Ja’far Al-Tusi, and here we are mentioning one report, then mentioned a report of ‘Al Mutahajjid’ just as we have transmitted’’.[191]
30- الْمُقْنِعَةُ، قَالَ فِي الْقُنُوتِ تَقُولُ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً عَبْدُهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ
(The book) ‘Al Muqnie’ –
He said regarding the Qunout: ‘You should say, ‘I testify that there is no god except Allah-azwj Alone, there is no associate for Him-azwj, and I testify that Muhammad-saww is His-azwj servant and His-azwj Rasool-saww!
اللَّهُمَّ أَهْلَ الْكِبْرِيَاءِ وَ الْعَظَمَةِ وَ أَهْلَ الْجُودِ وَ الْجَبَرُوتِ وَ أَهْلَ الْعَفْوِ وَ الرَّحْمَةِ وَ أَهْلَ التَّقْوَى وَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ
O Allah-azwj, rightful of the Greatness and the Magnificence, and rightful of the Generousity and the Force, and rightful of the Pardon and the Mercy, and rightful of being feared and the Forgiveness!

I ask You-azwj in this day which You-azwj have Made it an Eid for the Muslims, and a treasure and an increase for Muhammad-saww, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, as best as what You-azwj have Send any servant from Your-azwj servants, and Send upon Your-azwj Angels and Your-azwj Messengers-as, and Forgive for the believing men and the believing women, and the Muslim men and the Muslim women, the living from them and the dead!

O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj from goodness of what Your-azwj servants, the Messengers-as had asked for, and I seek Refuge with You-azwj from evil of what Your-azwj servants, the Messengers‑as had sought Refuge from!’’[192]
