‘From Abu Abdullah-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘A man from the Shias complained to him-asws of the neck lump which had appeared with him. Abu Abdullah-asws said to him: ‘Fast for three days, then bathe during the fourth day at decline of the sun (midday), and go out to your Lord‑azwj (to the wilderness), and let there be a clean cloth with you.
فَصَلِّ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ وَ اقْرَأْ فِيهَا مَا تَيَسَّرَ مِنَ الْقُرْآنِ وَ اخْضَعْ بِجُهْدِكَ فَإِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنْ صَلَاتِكَ فَأَلْقِ ثِيَابَكَ وَ ابْرُزْ بِالْخِرْقَةِ وَ الْزَقْ خَدَّكَ الْأَيْمَنَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ ثُمَّ قُلْ بِابْتِهَالٍ وَ تَضَرُّعٍ وَ خُشُوعٍ
Pray four Cycles Salat and read in it whatever is easy from the Quran, and be humble in your efforts. When you are free from your Salat, cast your clothes and go out with the cloth and adhere your right cheek upon the ground, then say with the pleading and beseeching and fearfulness: –
يَا وَاحِدُ يَا أَحَدُ يَا كَرِيمُ يَا حَنَّانُ يَا قَرِيبُ يَا مُجِيبُ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اكْشِفْ مَا بِي مِنْ مَرَضٍ وَ أَلْبِسْنِي الْعَافِيَةَ الشَّافِيَةَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ وَ امْنُنْ عَلَيَّ بِتَمَامِ النِّعْمَةِ وَ أَذْهِبْ مَا بِي فَقَدْ آذَانِي وَ غَمَّنِي
‘O the One! O the First! O the Benevolent! O the Affectionate! O the Near! O the Responder! O the most Merciful of the merciful ones! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny‑asws of Muhammad-saww, and Remove what illness there is with me and Clothe me the well-being, the healing in the world and the Hereafter, and Confer upon me with the complete bounties, and Remove what is with me, for it is hurting me and has saddened me!’’
وَ اعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ لَا يَنْفَعُكَ حَتَّى لَا يُخَالِجَ فِي قَلْبِكَ خِلَافُهُ وَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ يَنْفَعُكَ
Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘And know that it will not benefit you until there is no disagreement in your heart, and know (be certain) that it will surely benefit you!’
قَالَ فَفَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ مَا أَمَرَهُ بِهِ جَعْفَرٌ الصَّادِقُ ع فَعُوفِيَ مِنْهَا.
He (the narrator) said, ‘The man did what Ja’far Al-Sadiq-asws had instructed him, and he recovered from it’’.[1]

‘From Abu Abdullah Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘This Verse is for every swelling in the body the man fears that it might turn into something. When you read it, read it while you are clean, having prepared your Wudu for the obligatory Salat.
فَعَوِّذْ بِهَا وَرَمَكَ قَبْلَ الصَّلَاةِ وَ دُبُرَهَا وَ هِيَ لَوْ أَنْزَلْنا هذَا الْقُرْآنَ عَلى جَبَلٍ لَرَأَيْتَهُ خاشِعاً مُتَصَدِّعاً مِنْ خَشْيَةِ اللَّهِ إِلَى آخِرِ السُّورَةِ فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا فَعَلْتَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى مَا حُدَّ لَكَ سَكَنَ الْوَرَمُ.
Seek Refuge with it for your swelling before the Salat and after it, and it is: Had We Revealed this Quran unto a mountain, you would have seen it humbled, cracking down from fear of Allah, [59:21] – up to end of the Chapter. You, when you have done that upon what has been defined for you, the swelling will settle’’.[2]

(The book) ‘Tibb Al-Aimma-asws’, may the greetings be upon them-asws – Abdullah Bin Muhammad Bin Mihran, from Ayoub, from Amro Bin Shimr, from Jabir,
‘From Abu Ja’far Muhammad Bin Ali Bin Al-Husayn, from Al-Husayn-asws having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws said: ‘One who has ailment of his throat and frequency of his coughing and its dryness has intensified, let him seek Refuge with these phrases, and it has been named as the comprehensive for all things: –
اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَجَائِي وَ أَنْتَ ثِقَتِي وَ عِمَادِي وَ غِيَاثِي وَ رِفْعَتِي وَ جَمَالِي وَ أَنْتَ مَفْزَعُ الْمُفْزَعِينَ لَيْسَ لِلْهَارِبِينَ مَهْرَبٌ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ وَ لَا لِلْعَالَمِينَ مُعَوَّلٌ إِلَّا عَلَيْكَ وَ لَا لِلرَّاغِبِينَ مَرْغَبٌ إِلَّا لَدَيْكَ
‘O Allah-azwj! You-azwj are my hope, and You-azwj are my trust, and my reliance, and my help, and my loftiness, and my beauty, and You-azwj are Shelter for the alarmed ones. There isn’t any escape for the fleeing ones except to You-azwj, nor any hope for the hoping ones except to You-azwj, nor any desire for the desiring ones except for You-azwj!
وَ لَا لِلْمَظْلُومِينَ نَاصِرٌ إِلَّا أَنْتَ وَ لَا لِذِي الْحَوَائِجِ مَقْصَدٌ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ وَ لَا لِلطَّالِبِينَ عَطَاءٌ إِلَّا مِنْ لَدُنْكَ وَ لَا لِلتَائِبِينَ مَتَابٌ إِلَّا إِلَيْكَ وَ لَيْسَ الرِّزْقُ وَ الْخَيْرُ وَ الْفُتُوحُ إِلَّا بِيَدِكَ
Neither is there any helper for the oppressed except You-azwj, nor any purpose for the one with needs except to You-azwj, nor any award for the seekers except from You-azwj, nor any Clemency for the repentant except to You-azwj, and there isn’t any sustenance and the goodness and the victories except in Your-azwj Hand!
حَزَنَتْنِي الْأُمُورُ الْفَادِحَةُ وَ أَعْيَتْنِي الْمَسَالِكُ الضَّيِّقَةُ وَ أَحْوَشَتْنِي الْأَوْجَاعُ الْمُوجِعَةُ وَ لَمْ أَجِدْ فَتْحَ بَابِ الْفَرَجِ إِلَّا بِيَدِكَ فَأَقَمْتُ تِلْقَاءَ وَجْهِكَ وَ اسْتَفْتَحْتُ عَلَيْكَ بِالدُّعَاءِ إِغْلَاقَهُ
The disastrous matters have grieved me, and the constricted ways have fatigued me, and the excruciating pains have terrified me and I could not find any door open for the relief except in Your-azwj Hand, so I have stood facing Your-azwj Face and seeking the opening to You-azwj from its locks with the supplication!
فَافْتَحْ يَا رَبِّ لِلْمُسْتَفْتِحِ وَ اسْتَجِبْ لِلدَّاعِي وَ فَرِّجِ الْكَرْبَ وَ اكْشِفِ الضُّرَّ وَ سُدَّ الْفَقْرَ وَ أَجْلِ الْحُزْنَ وَ انْفِ الْهَمَّ وَ اسْتَنْقِذْنِي مِنَ الْهَلَكَةِ فَإِنِّي قَدْ أَشْفَيْتُ عَلَيْهَا وَ لَا أَجِدُ لِخَلَاصِي مِنْهَا غَيْرَكَ
Open, O Lord-azwj, for the one seeking the opening, and Respond to the supplicater and Relieve the distress, and Remove the harm, and Block the poverty, and Remove the grief, and Relieve the worries, and Save me from the destruction, for I have sought healing for it and I cannot find any rescuer from it apart from You-azwj!
يَا اللَّهُ يَا مَنْ يُجِيبُ الْمُضْطَرَّ إِذا دَعاهُ وَ يَكْشِفُ السُّوءَ ارْحَمْنِي وَ اكْشِفْ مَا بِي مِنْ غَمٍّ وَ كَرْبٍ وَ وَجَعٍ وَ دَاءٍ رَبِّ إِنْ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ لَمْ أَرْجُ فَرَجِي مِنْ عِنْدِ غَيْرِكَ فَارْحَمْنِي يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
O Allah-azwj! Or, One Who Answers the distressed one when he supplicates to Him and He Removes the evil, [27:62]! Mercy me and Remove what is with me from the sadness, and distress, and pain, and illness. Lord-azwj! If You-azwj don’t Do it, I will have no hope of relief from others, therefore Mercy me, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’’
هَذَا مَكَانُ الْبَائِسِ الْفَقِيرِ هَذَا مَكَانُ الْمُسْتَغِيثِ هَذَا مَكَانُ الْمُسْتَجِيرِ هَذَا مَكَانُ الْمَكْرُوبِ الضَّرِيرِ هَذَا مَكَانُ الْمَلْهُوفِ الْمُسْتَعِيذِ هَذَا مَكَانُ الْعَبْدِ الْمُشْفِقِ الْهَالِكِ الْغَرِقِ الْخَائِفِ الْوَجِلِ
This is the place of a destitute, the poor! This is the place of one crying out for help! This is the place of a shelter seeker! This is the place of a distressed, the harmed! This is the place of an anxious one seeking Refuge! This is the place of a fearful servant, the perishing, the drowning, the fearful, the apprehensive!

This is the place of one who has awakened from his slumber and woken up from his heedlessness, and he has recovered from his illness, and his pain is severe, and he fears from his wrongdoings, and acknowledges with his sins, and is humble to his Lord-azwj, and cries from his hazards, and seeks Forgiveness, and seeks to come across, and seeks to uproot, and seek to Refuge, by Allah-azwj, to his Lord-azwj, and dreads from His-azwj Strength, and flows his tears, and hopes, and cries, and calls out, ‘Lord-azwj, the harm has touched me, so Make me avoid it!’
قَدْ تَرَى مَكَانِي وَ تَسْمَعُ كَلَامِي وَ تَعْلَمُ سَرَائِرِي وَ عَلَانِيَتِي وَ تَعْلَمُ حَاجَتِي وَ تُحِيطُ بِمَا عِنْدِي وَ لَا يَخْفَى عَلَيْكَ شَيْءٌ مِنْ أَمْرِي مِنْ عَلَانِيَتِي وَ سِرِّي وَ مَا أُبْدِي وَ مَا يُكِنُّهُ صَدْرِي
You-azwj have Seen my place, and have Heard my speech, and You-azwj Know my secrets and my announcements, and You-azwj Know my needs and You-azwj Encompass whatever is in my possession, and there is nothing from my matters hidden unto You-azwj, from my announcements and my secrets, and what I manifest and what I hide, and what my chest harbours!
فَأَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنَّكَ تَلِي التَّدْبِيرَ وَ تَقْبَلُ الْمَعَاذِيرَ وَ تُمْضِي الْمَقَادِيرَ سُؤَالَ مَنْ أَسَاءَ وَ اعْتَرَفَ وَ ظَلَمَ نَفْسَهُ وَ اقْتَرَفَ وَ نَدِمَ عَلَى مَا سَلَفَ وَ أَنَابَ إِلَى رَبِّهِ وَ أَسِفَ وَ لَاذَ بِفِنَائِهِ وَ عَكَفَ وَ أَنَاخَ رَجَاهُ وَ عَطَفَ وَ تَبَتَّلَ إِلَى مُقِيلِ عَثْرَتِهِ وَ قَابِلِ تَوْبَتِهِ وَ غَافِرِ حُوبَتِهِ وَ رَاحِمِ عَبْرَتِهِ وَ كَاشِفِ كُرْبَتِهِ وَ شَافِي عِلَّتِهِ
I ask You-azwj because You-azwj are in charge of the Management, and Accept the apologies, and Implement the Determinations! A request by the one who has done evil, and acknowledges, and has been unjust to himself, and has committed (sins) and has regretted upon what is past, and it penitent to his Lord-azwj, and is sorry and seeks Refuge in His-azwj Courtyard, and is devoted, and whispers his hopes, and is pitiful, and he pleads to the Eradicator of his stumbles, and Accepter of his repentance, and Forgiver of his misdeeds, and Mercier of his tears, and Remover of his stress, and Healer of his illness!
أَنْ تَرْحَمَ تَجَاوُزِي بِكَ وَ تَضَرُّعِي إِلَيْكَ وَ تَغْفِرَ لِي جَمِيعَ مَا أَخْطَأَتْهُ كُتَّابُكَ وَ أَحْصَاهُ كِتَابُكَ وَ مَا مَضَى مِنْ عِلْمِكَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِي وَ خَطَايَايَ وَ جَرَائِرِي فِي خَلَوَاتِي وَ فَجَرَاتِي وَ سَيِّئَاتِي وَ هَفَوَاتِي وَ هَنَاتِي
Mercy my excesses with You-azwj, and my beseeching to You-azwj, and Forgive for me entirety of what I have erred (recorded by) Your-azwj recorders, and counted by Your-azwj Book, and what has passed from Your-azwj Knowledge of my sins, and my wrongdoings, and my crimes in my privacy, and my immoralities, and my evil deeds, and my lapses, and my whims!
وَ جَمِيعِ مَا تَشْهَدُ بِهِ حَفَظَتُكَ وَ كَتَبَتْهُ مَلَائِكَتُكَ فِي الصِّغَرِ وَ بَعْدَ الْبُلُوغِ وَ الشَّيْبِ وَ الشَّبَابِ بِاللَّيْلِ وَ النَّهَارِ وَ الْغُدُوِّ وَ الْآصَالِ وَ بِالْعَشِيِّ وَ الْإِبْكَارِ وَ الضُّحَى وَ الْأَسْحَارِ فِي الْحَضَرِ وَ السَّفَرِ فِي الْخَلَإِ وَ الْمَلَإِ وَ أَنْ تُجَاوِزَ عَنْ سَيِّئَاتِي فِي أَصْحابِ الْجَنَّةِ وَعْدَ الصِّدْقِ الَّذِي كانُوا يُوعَدُونَ
And entirety of what Your-azwj recorders have witnessed with and Your-azwj Angels have written during the young age, and after the adulthood, and the old age, and the youthfulness, by the night and the day, and the morning and the afternoon, and the evening and the early morning, and the noon and the pre-dawn, during the staying and the journey, and the seclusion and the assembly, and to Overlook my evil deeds, to be among companions of the Paradise, a truthful Promise which they have been Promised!
اللَّهُمَّ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ أَنْ تَكْشِفَ عَنِّي الْعِلَلَ الْغَاشِيَةَ فِي جِسْمِي وَ فِي شَعْرِي وَ بَشَرِي وَ عُرُوقِي وَ عَصَبِي وَ جَوَارِحِي فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَا يَكْشِفُهَا غَيْرُكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ وَ يَا مُجِيبَ دَعْوَةِ الْمُضْطَرِّينَ.
O Allah-azwj! By the right of Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws! Remove from me the illness overwhelming in my body, and in my hair, and my skin, and my veins, and my nerves, and my limbs, for that cannot be removed by anyone apart from You-azwj, O the most Merciful of merciful ones, and O Responder to the supplication of the desperate ones!’’[9]

1- طب، طب الأئمة عليهم السلام مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ الْكَرْخِيُّ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ خُرَاسَانَ إِلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ حَجَجْتُ وَ نَوَيْتُ عِنْدَ خُرُوجِي أَنْ أَقْصِدَكَ فَإِنَّ بِي وَجَعَ الطِّحَالِ وَ أَنْ تَدْعُوَ لِي بِالْفَرَجِ
(The book) ‘Tibb Al-Aimma-asws’, may the greetings be upon them-asws – Muhammad Bin Abdul Rahman Bin Mihran Al Karkhy, from Ayoun, from Amro Bin Shimr, from Jabir,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘A man came from Khurasan to Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws. He said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! I have performed Hajj and I had intended during my going out that I shall aim to you-asws, for there is pain of the spleen with me, and if you-asws supplicate for me for the relief!’
فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ ع قَدْ كَفَاكَ اللَّهُ ذَلِكَ وَ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ فَإِذَا أَحْسَسْتَ بِهِ فَاكْتُبْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ بِزَعْفَرَانٍ بِمَاءِ زَمْزَمَ وَ اشْرَبْهُ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى يَدْفَعُ عَنْكَ ذَلِكَ الْوَجَعَ
Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws said to him: ‘Allah-azwj will Suffice that for you, and for Him-azwj is the Praise. When you feel it, write these Verses with saffron in Zamzam water, and drink it, for Allah-azwj the Exalted will Repel that pain from you: –
قُلِ ادْعُوا اللَّهَ أَوِ ادْعُوا الرَّحْمنَ أَيًّا ما تَدْعُوا فَلَهُ الْأَسْماءُ الْحُسْنى وَ لا تَجْهَرْ بِصَلاتِكَ وَ لا تُخافِتْ بِها وَ ابْتَغِ بَيْنَ ذلِكَ سَبِيلًا وَ قُلِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي لَمْ يَتَّخِذْ وَلَداً وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ شَرِيكٌ فِي الْمُلْكِ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ وَلِيٌّ مِنَ الذُّلِّ وَ كَبِّرْهُ تَكْبِيراً
Say: ‘Supplicate to Allah or supplicate to the Beneficent. Whichever (Name) you supplicate with, so for Him are the most excellent Names. And neither be loud with your Salat nor be silent with it, and seek a way between that’ [17:110] And say: ‘The Praise is for Allah, Who did not Take a son, and there does not happen to be an associate for Him in the Kingdom, and there does not happen to be a Guardian for Him from the disgrace, and exclaim His Greatness with exclamations’ [17:111]!’
تَكْتُبُ عَلَى رَقِّ ظَبْيٍ وَ عَلِّقْهَا عَلَى الْعَضُدِ الْأَيْسَرِ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ فَإِنَّهُ يَسْكُنُ وَ هِيَ هَذِهِ التَّرْجَمَةُ لاس س س ح ح دم كرم ل له و محيي حح لله صره و حجه سر ححجت عشره به هك بان عنها محتاح حل هوبوا امنوا مسعوف ثم.
Write upon deerskin (parchment) and hang it upon the left forearm for seven days, for it shall settle, and it is this translation: (لاس س س ح ح دم كرم ل له و محيي حح لله صره و حجه سر ححجت عشره به هك بان عنها محتاح حل هوبوا امنوا مسعوف ثم)’’.[10]

(The book) ‘Makarim Al Akhlaq’ –
‘A Ruqa (incantation) for the spleen. Read upon his palm: When Help of Allah comes and the victory [110:1] – three times. Then read: Surely, those who say, ‘Our Lord is Allah!’, then they are steadfast, [46:13] – up to end of the Verse, three times. Then wipe his head with these two seven times!’’[11]
أُخْرَى يُكْتَبُ وَ يُعَلَّقُ عَلَى هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُمْسِكُ السَّماواتِ الْآيَةَ إِنَّهُ مِنْ سُلَيْمانَ وَ إِنَّهُ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ.
Another – He should write and hang upon this place, Surely, Allah Withholds the skies and the earth [35:41] – the Verse; It is from Suleyman, and it is in the Name of Allah the Beneficent, the Merciful [27:30]’’.[12]

قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَوِّذْهُ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَاتِ إِذَا نِمْتَ ثَلَاثاً وَ إِذَا انْتَبَهْتَ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً فَإِنَّكَ لَا تُحِسُّ بِهِ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَ لَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ أَ لَمْ تَعْلَمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ لَهُ مُلْكُ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ وَ ما لَكُمْ مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ مِنْ وَلِيٍّ وَ لا نَصِيرٍ
He (the narrator) said, ‘He-asws said to him: ‘Seek Refuge with these Verses when you sleep, three times, and when you wake up one time, you will not feel it after that: Do you not know that Allah is Able upon all things? [2:106] Do you not know that Allah, for Him is the Kingdom of the skies and the earth? And there is none for you from besides Allah, from a Guardian nor a Helper [2:107]!’
قَالَ الرَّجُلُ فَفَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَمَا أَحْسَسْتُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بِهَا.
The man said, ‘I did that, and did not feel it after that’’.[13]

(The book) ‘Makarim Al Akhlaq’ –
‘To retain the urine, he should write upon his left lower leg, ‘So We Opened the gates of the sky with water pouring out [54:11] – up to His-azwj Words: for who was denied [54:14]’’.[14]
عَنْ حُمْرَانَ قَالَ: كَتَبْتُ إِلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الثَّالِثِ ع جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ قِبَلِي رَجُلٌ مِنْ مَوَالِيكَ بِهِ حَصْرُ الْبَوْلِ وَ هُوَ يَسْأَلُكَ الدُّعَاءَ لَهُ أَنْ يُلْبِسَهُ اللَّهُ الْعَافِيَةَ وَ اسْمُهُ نَفِيسٌ الْخَادِمُ
From Humran who said,
‘I wrote to Abu Al Hassan-asws the 3rd, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! There is a man from your-asws friends before me, the urine has been retained with him and he asks you-asws for supplicating for him that Allah-azwj should Clothe him with the well-being, and his name is Nafees Al Khadim’.
فَأَجَابَ كَشَفَ اللَّهُ ضُرَّكَ وَ دَفَعَ عَنْكَ مَكَارِهَ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ وَ أَلِحَّ عَلَيْهِ بِالْقُرْآنِ فَإِنَّهُ يُشْفَى إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى.
He-asws answered: ‘May Allah-azwj Remove your harm and Repel from you abhorrence of the world and the Hereafter, and insist upon him with the Quran for he will be healed, if Allah-azwj the Exalted so Desires!’’[15]
دُعَاءٌ لِعُسْرِ الْبَوْلِ رَبُّنَا اللَّهُ الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاءِ تَقَدَّسَ اللَّهُمَّ اسْمُكَ فِي السَّمَاءِ وَ الْأَرْضِ اللَّهُمَّ كَمَا رَحْمَتُكَ فِي السَّمَاءِ اجْعَلْ رَحْمَتَكَ فِي الْأَرْضِ اغْفِرْ لَنَا حُوبَنَا وَ خَطَايَانَا أَنْتَ رَبُّ الْمُطَيَّبِينَ أَنْزِلْ رَحْمَةً مِنْ رَحْمَتِكَ وَ شِفَاءً مِنْ شِفَائِكَ عَلَى هَذَا الْوَجَعِ فَلْيَبْرَأْ.
Supplication for the difficult (painful) urination – ‘Our Lord-azwj is Allah-azwj Who is Holy in the sky! O Allah-azwj! Your-azwj Name is in the sky and the earth! O Allah-azwj! Just as Your-azwj Mercy is in the sky, Make Your-azwj Mercy to be in the earth! Forgive for us our lapses and our wrongdoings, You-azwj are Lord-azwj of the good ones! Send down mercy from Your-azwj Mercy, and healing from Your-azwj Healing, upon this pain, so let him be cured!’’[16]

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُمْسِكُ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضَ أَنْ تَزُولا إِلَى قَوْلِهِ حَلِيماً غَفُوراً يَمْلَأُ الْجَامَ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ مَرَّةً بَعْدَ أُخْرَى ثُمَّ يَغْسِلُهُ بِمَاءٍ بَارِدٍ وَ يَصُبُّ فِي قِنِّينَةٍ نَظِيفَةٍ
In the Name of Allah the Beneficent, the Merciful [1:1] Surely, Allah Withholds the skies and the earth lest they cease – up to His-azwj Words – Lenient, Forgiving’ [35:41], filling the vessel from this Verse one after another, then wash it with cold water pouring into a clean glass.

Then he should write, In the Name of Allah the Beneficent, the Merciful [1:1] Surely, Allah Withholds the skies and the earth lest they cease [35:41] – the Verse.
وَ يَكْتُبُ يَا مَنْ هُوَ هَكَذَا وَ لَا هَكَذَا غَيْرُهُ أَمْسِكْ عَنْ فُلَانِ بْنِ فُلَانَةَ مَا يَجِدُ مِنْ غَلَبَةِ الْبَوْلِ وَ يُعَلَّقُ التَّعْوِيذُ عَلَى رُكْبَتِهَا إِنْ كَانَتْ أُنْثَى وَ إِنْ كَانَ غُلَاماً عَلَى مَوْضِعِ الْعَانَةِ عَلَى إِحْلِيلِهِ وَ يُؤْخَذُ بُنْدُقَةٌ مِنْ تِلْكَ الْبَنَادِقِ وَ يَسْقِيهِ إِيَّاهَا حِينَ يَأْخُذُ مَضْجَعَهُ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْمَاءِ الْمُعَوَّذِ وَ لْيُقِلَّ مِنْ شُرْبِ الْمَاءِ فَإِذَا ذَهَبَ مَا يَجِدُ مِنْ غَلَبَةِ الْبَوْلِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ فَلْيُحَلَّ التَّعْوِيذُ عَنْهُ لِئَلَّا يَعْتَرِيَهُ الْحَصْرُ
And he should write, ‘O One Who is like this and there is none other like this! Withhold from so and so, son of so and so, what he feels from overcoming by the urine!’, and hang the amulet upon his knees if it was a female, and if it was a boy, upon the pubic place upon his urethra; and he should take a pellet from those pellets (of kneading) and quench it to him when he takes to his bed with something from that water to the one seeking Refuge, and let him be little from drinking the water. When it goes away what he had been feeling, from the prevalent urine, if Allah-azwj so Desires, let him loosen the amulet from him lest he suffers the retention’’.[18]

As for after, there is leeway for us and for you all regarding the truth. If he happens to be immoral one intruding, or a caller of truth falsely, or one who hurts the young boys and panics the children and makes them urinate in the bed, let him to companions of the idols and to worshippers of the images, and let him vacate from companions of the Quran in vicinity of the Beneficent, and the ambushes of the Satan-la, and from their Eman is the Quran, and may Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww the Prophet-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws’’.[20]

For the belly pain – He should write Surah Al Ikhlaas, and ‘In the Name of Allah the Beneficent, the Merciful [1:1] Say: ‘He Who Revived these the first time, and He is Knowing with all creation [36:79] And even though the Quran is such, the mountain can be moved by it, or the land can be travelled by it, or the dead can be made to speak by it. But, for Allah is the Command entirely. [13:31]!’
وَ يُعَلَّقُ عَلَيْهِ وَ هَذِهِ الْآيَاتُ تُقْرَأُ عَلَيْهِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ ما أَصابَ مِنْ مُصِيبَةٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَ لا فِي أَنْفُسِكُمْ إِلَّا فِي كِتابٍ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ نَبْرَأَها إِنَّ ذلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ يَسِيرٌ
And he should hang it upon him, and these Verses to be read upon him: ‘In the Name of Allah the Beneficent, the Merciful [1:1] Neither does a difficulty afflicts in the earth nor regarding yourselves, except it is in a Book from before We Bring it into existence. Surely that is easy upon Allah [57:22]!

These are two disputants disputing regarding their Lord. As for those who are committing Kufr, there would be cut out for them clothes of fire, the boiling water would be pour from above their heads [22:19] Due to it would melt whatever is in their bellies and the skins [22:20].
فَتَعالَى اللَّهُ الْمَلِكُ الْحَقُّ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا هُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْكَرِيمِ
Exalted is Allah, the True King. There is no god except Him, Lord of the Honourable Throne [23:116].
لا إِلهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ يُحْيِي وَ يُمِيتُ وَ هُوَ حَيٌّ لَا يَمُوتُ بِيَدِهِ الْخَيْرُ وَ هُوَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ

1- عُدَّةُ الدَّاعِي، كَتَبَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ إِلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع يَسْأَلُهُ عُوذَةً لِلرِّيَاحِ الَّذِي تَعْرِضُ لِلصِّبْيَانِ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ بِخَطِّهِ
(The book) ‘Uddat Al Daie’ –
‘Muhammad Bin Haroun wrote to Abu Ja’far-asws asking him-asws for an amulet for the winds which present to the children. He-asws wrote to him in his-asws handwriting: –
اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ لَا رَبَّ لِي إِلَّا اللَّهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ لا شَرِيكَ لَهُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ كَانَ وَ مَا لَمْ يَشَأْ لَمْ يَكُنْ
‘Allah-azwj is Greatest! I testify that Muhammad-saww is Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj! Allah-azwj is Greatest! There is no god except Allah-azwj and there is no Lord-azwj for me except Allah-azwj! For Him-azwj is the Kingdom and for Him-azwj is the Praise! There is no associate for Him-azwj! Glory be to Allah-azwj! Whatever Allah-azwj Desires happens, and whatever He-azwj dos not Desire, does not happen!
اللَّهُمَّ ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَ الْإِكْرَامِ رَبَّ عِيسَى وَ مُوسَى وَ إِبْراهِيمَ الَّذِي وَفَّى إِلَهَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَ إِسْحَاقَ وَ يَعْقُوبَ وَ الْأَسْبَاطِ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ مَعَ مَا عَدَّدْتَ مِنْ آيَاتِكَ وَ بِعَظَمَتِكَ وَ بِمَا سَأَلَكَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّونَ وَ بِأَنَّكَ رَبُّ النَّاسِ كُنْتَ قَبْلَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَ أَنْتَ بَعْدَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ
O Allah-azwj, with the Majesty and the Benevolence! Lord-azwj of Isa-as, and Musa-as, and Ibrahim‑as who fulfilled! God-azwj of Ibrahim-as, and Ismail-as, and Is’haq-as, and Yaqoub-as and the tribes! There is no god except You-azwj! Glory be to You-azwj with what You-azwj have Prepared of Your-azwj Signs, and by Your-azwj Magnificence, and with what the Prophets-as had asked You-azwj with, and that You-azwj are Lord-azwj of the people! You-azwj Existed before all things, and You-azwj will be after all things!
أَسْأَلُكَ بِكَلِمَاتِكَ الَّتِي تُمْسِكُ السَّمَاءَ أَنْ تَقَعَ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِكَ وَ بِكَلِمَاتِكَ الَّتِي تُحْيِي بِهَا الْمَوْتَى أَنْ تُجِيرَ عَبْدَكَ فُلَاناً مِنْ شَرِّ ما يَنْزِلُ مِنَ السَّماءِ وَ ما يَعْرُجُ فِيها وَ مَا يَخْرُجُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ وَ مَا يَلِجُ فِيهَا وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَى الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ.
I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Phrased by which You-azwj Withhold the sky from falling upon the earth except by Your-azwj Permission, and by Your-azwj Phrases by which You-azwj Revive the dead, to Rescue Your-azwj servant so and so from evil what befalls from the sky and what ascends into it, and what emerges from the earth and what permeates into it, and may the greetings be upon the Messengers-as, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj, Lord-azwj of the worlds!’’[38]
عَنْهُ ع أَيْضاً بِخَطِّهِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ بِاللَّهِ وَ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَ كَمَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ وَ بِعِزَّةِ اللَّهِ وَ جَبَرُوتِ اللَّهِ وَ قُدْرَةِ اللَّهِ وَ مَلَكُوتِ اللَّهِ هَذَا الْكِتَابَ اجْعَلْهُ يَا اللَّهُ شِفَاءً لِفُلَانِ بْنِ فُلَانٍ ابْنِ عَبْدِكَ وَ ابْنِ أَمَتِكَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ.
From him-asws also in his-asws handwriting: ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj, and by Allah-azwj, and to Allah-azwj, and just as Allah-azwj Desires, and by the Might of Allah-azwj, and Force of Allah-azwj, and Power of Allah-azwj, and Domains of Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! Make this letter a healing for so and so, son of so and so, son of Your-azwj servant and son of Your-azwj maid, a servant of Allah-azwj! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon Rasool-Allah-saww!’’[39]

CHAPTER 93 – THE SUPPLICATION FOR UNTYING THE KNOTS (OF SORCERY)
1- طب، طب الأئمة عليهم السلام أَحْمَدُ بْنُ بَدْرٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ الصَّحَّافِ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: يَا صَحَّافُ
(The book) ‘Tibb Al-Aimma-asws’, may the greetings be upon them-asws – Ahmad Bin Badr, from Is’haq Al Sahhaf,
‘From Musa-asws Bin Ja’far-asws having said: ‘O Sahhaf!’
قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ
I said, ‘At your-asws service, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww!’
قَالَ إِنَّكَ مَأْخُوذٌ عَنْ أَهْلِكَ
He-asws said: ‘You have been seized from your family?’
قُلْتُ بَلَى يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ مُنْذُ ثَلَاثِ سِنِينَ قَدْ عَالَجْتُ بِكُلِّ دَوَاءٍ فَوَ اللَّهِ مَا نَفَعَنِي
I said, ‘Yes, O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww, since three years! I have treated with every cure. By Allah-azwj, it has not benefitted me!’
قَالَ يَا صَحَّافُ أَ فَلَا أَعْلَمْتَنِي
He-asws said: ‘O Sahhaf! Why didn’t you let me-asws know?’
قُلْتُ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ اللَّهِ مَا خَفِيَ عَلَيَّ أَنَّ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ عِنْدَكُمْ فَرَجُهُ وَ لَكِنْ أَسْتَحْيِيكَ
I said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! By Allah-azwj, it is no hidden unto me that relief of all things is with you-asws, but I was too embarrassed from you-asws!’
قَالَ وَيْحَكَ وَ مَا مَنَعَكَ الْحَيَاءُ فِي رَجُلٍ مَسْحُورٍ مَأْخُوذٍ أَمَا إِنِّي أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أُفَاتِحَكَ بِذَلِكَ
He-asws said: ‘Woe be to you, and the shyness should not prevent a bewitched man, seized! But I wanted to open (free) you of that!
قُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ أَذْرَأْتُكُمْ أَيُّهَا السَّحَرَةُ عَنْ فُلَانِ بْنِ فُلَانَةَ بِاللَّهِ الَّذِي قَالَ لِإِبْلِيسَ اخْرُجْ مِنْها مَذْؤُماً مَدْحُوراً اخْرُجْ مِنْهَا فَما يَكُونُ لَكَ أَنْ تَتَكَبَّرَ فِيها فَاخْرُجْ إِنَّكَ مِنَ الصَّاغِرِينَ
Say, ‘In the Name of Allah the Beneficent, the Merciful [1:1]! I keep you away, O you sorcerers, from so and so, son of so and so, by Allah-azwj Who Said to Iblees-la: “Get out from it, disgraced, expelled! [7:18]. Get out from it! and there would not happen to be for that you be arrogant therein. Therefore, get out, for you are from the belittled ones” [7:13]!
أَبْطَلْتُ عَمَلَكُمْ وَ رَدَدْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَ نَقَضْتُهُ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْأَعْلَى الْأَعْظَمِ الْقُدُّوسِ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَلِيمِ الْقَدِيمِ رَجَعَ سِحْرُكُمْ كَمَا لا يَحِيقُ الْمَكْرُ السَّيِّئُ إِلَّا بِأَهْلِهِ كَمَا بَطَلَ كَيْدُ السَّحَرَةِ حِينَ قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لِمُوسَى صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ أَلْقِ عَصاكَ فَإِذا هِيَ تَلْقَفُ ما يَأْفِكُونَ فَوَقَعَ الْحَقُّ وَ بَطَلَ ما كانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ أُبْطِلُ سَحَرَةَ فِرْعَوْنَ
I hereby invalidate your work and reject to you, and break it, by the Permission of Allah-azwj the Exalted, the most Exalted, the Magnificent, the Holy, the Mighty, the All-Knowing, the Ancient, returning your sorcery just as, and the evil plot does not affect any except its perpetrators [35:43], just as plots of the sorcerers was invalidated whereby Allah-azwj the Exalted Said to Musa-as, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon him-as: “Cast your staff!” So, it went on to swallow what they were faking [7:117] So the truth was established, and what they were doing was falsified [7:118], by the Permission of Allah-azwj the sorcerers of Pharaoh‑la were invalidated.
أَبْطَلْتُ عَمَلَكُمْ أَيُّهَا السَّحَرَةُ وَ نَقَضْتُهُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي أَنْزَلَ وَ لا تَكُونُوا كَالَّذِينَ نَسُوا اللَّهَ فَأَنْساهُمْ أَنْفُسَهُمْ
I hereby invalidate your work, O sorcerers, and break it upon you by the Permission of Allah‑azwj Who Revealed: And do not become like those who forgot Allah so He Made them forget themselves. [59:19]!
وَ بِالَّذِي قَالَ وَ لَوْ نَزَّلْنا عَلَيْكَ كِتاباً فِي قِرْطاسٍ فَلَمَسُوهُ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ لَقالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِنْ هذا إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُبِينٌ وَ قالُوا لَوْ لا أُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ مَلَكٌ وَ لَوْ أَنْزَلْنا مَلَكاً لَقُضِيَ الْأَمْرُ ثُمَّ لا يُنْظَرُونَ وَ لَوْ جَعَلْناهُ مَلَكاً لَجَعَلْناهُ رَجُلًا وَ لَلَبَسْنا عَلَيْهِمْ ما يَلْبِسُونَ
And by the One Who Said: And had We Sent down upon you writing in a paper, then they would have touched it with their hands, those who committed Kufr would have said, ‘This is nothing except clear sorcery’ [6:7] And they are saying, ‘Why has not an Angel Sent down unto him?’ And had We Sent an Angel, the matter would have been Decided, then they would not be Respited [6:8] And had We Made it to be an Angel, We would have Made him a man and We would have Confused upon them what they are already confusing [6:9]!
وَ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي أَنْزَلَ فَأَكَلا مِنْها فَبَدَتْ لَهُما سَوْآتُهُما فَأَنْتُمْ تَتَحَيَّرُونَ وَ لَا تَتَوَجَّهُونَ بِشَيْءٍ مِمَّا كُنْتُمْ فِيهِ وَ لَا تَرْجِعُونَ إِلَى شَيْءٍ مِنْهُ أَبَداً قَدْ بَطَلَ بِحَمْدِ اللَّهِ عَمَلُكُمْ وَ خَابَ سَعْيُكُمْ وَ وَهَنَ كَيْدُكُمْ مَعَ مَنْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ مِنَ الشَّيَاطِينِ إِنَّ كَيْدَ الشَّيْطانِ كانَ ضَعِيفاً
And by the Permission of Allah-azwj Who Revealed: Then they both ate of it, and their evil inclinations were manifested to them [20:121]. So, you are confused and are not concentrating with anything from what you have been in, nor will you be returning to anything from it, ever! Your work has been invalidated by the Praise of Allah-azwj, and your striving has been disappointed, and your plots have been weakened with the ones who were from the Satans-la! surely the strategy of the Satan was always weak [4:76]!
غَلَبْتُكُمْ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ وَ هَزَمْتُ كَثْرَتَكُمْ بِجُنُودِ اللَّهِ وَ كَسَرْتُ قُوَّتَكُمْ بِسُلْطَانِ اللَّهِ وَ سَلَّطْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ عَزَائِمَ اللَّهِ عَمِيَ بَصَرُكُمْ وَ ضَعُفَتْ قُوَّتُكُمْ وَ انْقَطَعَتْ أَسْبَابُكُمْ وَ تَبَرَّأَ الشَّيْطَانُ مِنْكُمْ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ
I overcome you all by the Permission of Allah-azwj and have defeated your large numbers by the armies of Allah-azwj, and have broken your strength by the Authority of Allah-azwj, and have prevailed upon you with the Determinations of Allah-azwj! Your sights are blinded and your strength has weakened, and your means are cut off, and the Satan-la has disavowed from you, by the Permission of Allah-azwj!
الَّذِي أَنْزَلَ كَمَثَلِ الشَّيْطانِ إِذْ قالَ لِلْإِنْسانِ اكْفُرْ فَلَمَّا كَفَرَ قالَ إِنِّي بَرِيءٌ مِنْكَ إِنِّي أَخافُ اللَّهَ رَبَّ الْعالَمِينَ فَكانَ عاقِبَتَهُما أَنَّهُما فِي النَّارِ خالِدَيْنِ فِيها وَ ذلِكَ جَزاءُ الظَّالِمِينَ
The One Who Revealed: Like the Satan when he says to the human being, ‘Commit Kufr!’ So, when he does commit Kufr, he says, ‘I am disavowed from you. I fear Allah, Lord of the worlds’ [59:16] So both their end-results would be that they would both be in the Fire, abiding eternally therein, and that is a Recompense of the unjust ones [59:17].
وَ أَنْزَلَ إِذْ تَبَرَّأَ الَّذِينَ اتُّبِعُوا مِنَ الَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوا وَ رَأَوُا الْعَذابَ وَ تَقَطَّعَتْ بِهِمُ الْأَسْبابُ وَ قالَ الَّذِينَ اتَّبَعُوا لَوْ أَنَّ لَنا كَرَّةً فَنَتَبَرَّأَ مِنْهُمْ كَما تَبَرَّؤُا مِنَّا كَذلِكَ يُرِيهِمُ اللَّهُ أَعْمالَهُمْ حَسَراتٍ عَلَيْهِمْ وَ ما هُمْ بِخارِجِينَ مِنَ النَّارِ
And Revealed: When those who were followed shall disavow from those who followed (them), and they see the Punishment, and the reasons are cut off with them [2:166] And those who followed shall say: ‘If only there was a return for us, we would disavow from them just as they are disavowing from us. Like that, Allah will Show their deeds to them as regrets upon them, and they will not be exiting from the Fire [2:167].
بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لا إِلهَ إِلَّا هُوَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ الْآيَةَ إِنَّ إِلهَكُمْ لَواحِدٌ رَبُّ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى شِهابٌ ثاقِبٌ
By the Permission of Allah-azwj Who, Allah, there is no god except He, the Living, the Eternal; [2:255] – the Verse. Surely, your God is One [37:4] Lord of the skies and the earth [37:5] – up to Words of the Exalted: a shooting star [37:10].
إِنَّ فِي خَلْقِ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ وَ اخْتِلافِ اللَّيْلِ وَ النَّهارِ لَآياتٍ لِأُولِي الْأَلْبابِ وَ ما أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ مِنَ السَّماءِ مِنْ ماءٍ الْآيَةَ
In the Creation of the skies and the earth and the alternation of the night and the day there are Signs for the ones of understanding [3:190] and what Allah Sends down from the sky, from a water, [2:164] – the Verse.
إِنَّ رَبَّكُمُ اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضَ فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ الْآيَةَ هُوَ اللَّهُ الَّذِي لا إِلهَ إِلَّا هُوَ عالِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَ الشَّهادَةِ إِلَى آخِرِ السُّورَةِ
Surely, your Lord is Allah Who Created the skies and the earth in six days, [7:54] – the Verse. He is Allah. There is no god except He; the Knower of the unseen and the seen; [59:22] – up to end of the Chapter.
مَنْ أَرَادَ فُلَانَ بْنَ فُلَانَةَ بِسُوءٍ مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَ الْإِنْسِ أَوْ غَيْرِهِمْ بَعْدَ هَذِهِ الْعُوذَةِ جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مِمَّنْ وَصَفَهُمْ فَقَالَ أُولئِكَ الَّذِينَ اشْتَرَوُا الضَّلالَةَ ثَلَاثَ آيَاتٍ
One who intends so and so, son of so and so with evil, from the Jinn and the humans, or others, after this amulet, may Allah-azwj Make him from the ones He-azwj has Described them. He-azwj Said: They are those who are trading the Guidance with the error, [2:16], three Verses.
جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مِمَّنْ قَالَ وَ مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا كَمَثَلِ الَّذِي يَنْعِقُ بِما لا يَسْمَعُ إِلَّا دُعاءً وَ نِداءً صُمٌّ بُكْمٌ عُمْيٌ فَهُمْ لا يَعْقِلُونَ
May Allah-azwj Make him from the ones He-azwj Said: And an example of those who are committing Kufr (disbelieving) is like an example of those who croak with what is not heard except for a call and a cry. (They are) deaf, dumb, blind, so they are not understanding [2:171].
جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مِمَّنْ قَالَ وَ مَنْ يُشْرِكْ بِاللَّهِ فَكَأَنَّما خَرَّ الْآيَةَ
And one who associates with Allah, so it is as if he has fallen from the sky, and the birds snatch him or is carried off by the wind in a remote place [22:31].
جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مِمَّنْ قَالَ مَثَلُ ما يُنْفِقُونَ فِي هذِهِ الْحَياةِ الدُّنْيا الْآيَةَ
May Allah-azwj Make him from the ones He-azwj Said: The example of what they are spending during this life of the world [3:117] – the Verse.
جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مِمَّنْ قَالَ كَمَثَلِ صَفْوانٍ عَلَيْهِ تُرابٌ الْآيَةَ
May Allah-azwj Make him from the ones He-azwj Said: like an example of a smooth rock with soil upon it, [2:264] – the Verse.
جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مِمَّنْ قَالَ وَ مَثَلُ كَلِمَةٍ خَبِيثَةٍ كَشَجَرَةٍ أَرْبَعَ آيَاتٍ
May Allah-azwj Make him from the ones He-azwj Said: And an example of a wicked word is like a wicked tree [14:26] – four Verses (up to 14:29).
جَعَلَهُ اللَّهُ مِمَّنْ قَالَ مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا بِرَبِّهِمْ أَعْمالُهُمْ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ فَما لَهُ مِنْ نُورٍ
May Allah-azwj Make him from the ones He-azwj Said: And those who commit Kufr, their deeds [24:39] – up to His-azwj Words: no light for him [24:40]!
اللَّهُمَّ فَأَسْأَلُكَ بِصِدْقِكَ وَ عِلْمِكَ وَ حُسْنِ أَمْثَالِكَ وَ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ مَنْ أَرَادَ فُلَاناً بِسُوءٍ أَنْ تَرُدَّ كَيْدَهُ فِي نَحْرِهِ وَ تَجْعَلَ خَدَّهُ الْأَسْفَلَ وَ تُرْكِسَهُ لِأُمِّ رَأْسِهِ فِي حَفِيرَةٍ إِنَّكَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْكَ يَسِيرٌ وَ ما كَانَ ذلِكَ عَلَى اللَّهِ بِعَزِيزٍ
O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Truthfulness, and Your-azwj Knowledge, and Your-azwj excellent Examples, and by the right of Muhammad-saww, and his-saww Progeny-asws! One who intends so and so with evil, Return his plot back into his throat, and Make his cheek (honour) to be the lowest, and Thrown his head in a pit! You-azwj are Able upon all things, and that is easy upon You-azwj, and that was never too mighty upon Allah-azwj!
لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ السَّلَامُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ
There is no god except Allah-azwj, Muhammad-saww is Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj (and his-saww Progeny-asws, and may the greetings be upon them-asws and Mercy of Allah-azwj and His-azwj Blessings!’
ثُمَّ تَقْرَأُ عَلَى طِينِ الْقَبْرِ وَ تَخْتِمُ وَ تُعَلِّقُهُ عَلَى الْمَأْخُوذِ وَ تَقْرَأُ هُوَ اللَّهُ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَ رَسُولَهُ بِالْهُدى وَ دِينِ الْحَقِّ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَ لَوْ كَرِهَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ وَ كَفى بِاللَّهِ شَهِيداً وَ بَطَلَ ما كانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ فَغُلِبُوا هُنالِكَ وَ انْقَلَبُوا صاغِرِينَ.
Then read upon the clay of the grave (of Al-Husayn-asws) and hang it upon the seized (bewitched), and read: ‘He-azwj is Allah-azwj the One Who Sent His Rasool with the Guidance and the Religion of Truth in order to prevail it upon all the Religions, and even if the Polytheists dislike it [9:33] and suffice with Allah as a Witness [4:79] Thus they were overcome over there and they returned belittled [7:119]’’.[40]
2- عُدَّةُ الدَّاعِي، لِحَلِّ الْمَرْبُوطِ يُكْتَبُ فِي رُقْعَةٍ وَ يُعَلَّقُ عَلَيْهِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ إِنَّا فَتَحْنا لَكَ فَتْحاً مُبِيناً لِيَغْفِرَ لَكَ اللَّهُ ما تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِكَ وَ ما تَأَخَّرَ وَ يُتِمَّ نِعْمَتَهُ عَلَيْكَ وَ يَهْدِيَكَ صِراطاً مُسْتَقِيماً
(The book) ‘Uddat Al Daie’ –
‘For untying the knot – He should write in a not and hang it upon him, ‘In the Name of Allah the Beneficent, the Merciful [1:1]! Surely, We Opened for you a clear victory [48:1] For Allah to Forgive you what has preceded from your sins and what is delayed, the Complete His Favour upon you and Guide you on a Straight Path [48:2]!’
ثُمَّ يُكْتَبُ سُورَةُ النَّصْرِ ثُمَّ يُكْتَبُ وَ مِنْ آياتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُمْ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ أَزْواجاً لِتَسْكُنُوا إِلَيْها وَ جَعَلَ بَيْنَكُمْ مَوَدَّةً وَ رَحْمَةً إِنَّ فِي ذلِكَ لَآياتٍ لِقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ
Then write Surah Al Nasr, then write, And from His Signs is that He Created for you spouses from yourselves that you may find rest in them, and He Made cordiality and mercy to be between you. Surely, in that there are Signs for a people who ponder [30:21].
ادْخُلُوا عَلَيْهِمُ الْبابَ فَإِذا دَخَلْتُمُوهُ فَإِنَّكُمْ غالِبُونَ فَفَتَحْنا أَبْوابَ السَّماءِ بِماءٍ مُنْهَمِرٍ وَ فَجَّرْنَا الْأَرْضَ عُيُوناً فَالْتَقَى الْماءُ عَلى أَمْرٍ قَدْ قُدِرَ
‘Enter unto them by the gate, for when you enter it you will prevail [5:23] So We Opened the gates of the sky with water pouring out [54:11] And We Burst the ground with springs, so the water gathered upon a Pre-determined matter [54:12].
قالَ رَبِّ اشْرَحْ لِي صَدْرِي وَ يَسِّرْ لِي أَمْرِي وَ احْلُلْ عُقْدَةً مِنْ لِسانِي يَفْقَهُوا قَوْلِي
He said: ‘Lord! Expand my chest for me [20:25] And Ease my matter for me [20:26] And Loosen the knot from my tongue [20:27] (That) they may understand my speech [20:28].
وَ تَرَكْنا بَعْضَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَمُوجُ فِي بَعْضٍ وَ نُفِخَ فِي الصُّورِ فَجَمَعْناهُمْ جَمْعاً كَذَلِكَ حَلَلْتُ فُلَانَ بْنَ فُلَانَةَ بِنْتِ فُلَانَةَ
And We will Forsake some of them on that Day surging among others, and We shall Blow in the Trumpet, so We will Gather them altogether [18:99]. Like that, I untie so and so, son of so and so (mother), daughter of so and so!
لَقَدْ جاءَكُمْ رَسُولٌ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ عَزِيزٌ عَلَيْهِ ما عَنِتُّمْ حَرِيصٌ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَؤُفٌ رَحِيمٌ فَإِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ حَسْبِيَ اللَّهُ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا هُوَ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَ هُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ.
There has come to you a Rasool from yourselves. It is grievous upon him what is distressing upon you, being full of concern upon you. With the Momineen he is kind, merciful [9:128] But if they turn back, say: ‘Allah is Sufficient for me, there is no god but He; upon Him do I rely, and He is Lord of the Magnificent Throne [9:129]’’.[41]

(The book) ‘Tibb Al-Aimma-asws’, may the greetings be upon them-asws – Al Khawateemi, from Muhammad Bin Ali Al Sayrafi, from Muhammad Bin Aslam, from Al Hassan Bin Muhammad Al Hashimy, from Aban Bin Abu Ayyash, from Suely Bin Qays Al Hilali,
‘From Amir Al-Momineen-asws having said: ‘I-asws know of two Verses from the Revealed Book of Allah-azwj which can be written for the woman when giving birth to her child is difficult upon her! These should be in a deerskin (parchment), and attached in her forelock: –
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ بِاللَّهِ إِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْراً إِنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ يُسْراً سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ يا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ اتَّقُوا رَبَّكُمْ إِنَّ زَلْزَلَةَ السَّاعَةِ شَيْءٌ عَظِيمٌ يَوْمَ تَرَوْنَها تَذْهَلُ كُلُّ مُرْضِعَةٍ عَمَّا أَرْضَعَتْ وَ تَضَعُ كُلُّ ذاتِ حَمْلٍ حَمْلَها وَ تَرَى النَّاسَ سُكارى وَ ما هُمْ بِسُكارى وَ لكِنَّ عَذابَ اللَّهِ شَدِيدٌ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً
‘In the Name of Allah-azwj, and by Allah-azwj! Then, surely with the difficulty, there is ease [94:5] Surely, with the difficulty there is ease [94:6], seven times. O you people! Fear your Lord. Surely the earthquake of the Hour is a mighty thing [22:1] On the Day you will see it, every breast-feeding woman shall quit from what she breast-fed, and everyone with a pregnancy would place her burden; and you will see the people as intoxicated, and they will not be with intoxication, but the Punishment of Allah would be severe [22:2] – once.
يُكْتَبُ عَلَى وَرَقَةٍ وَ تُرْبَطُ بِخَيْطٍ مِنْ كَتَّانٍ غَيْرِ مَفْتُولٍ وَ يُشَدُّ عَلَى فَخِذِهَا الْأَيْسَرِ فَإِذَا وَلَدَتْهُ قَطَعْتَهُ مِنْ سَاعَتِكَ وَ لَا تَتَوَانَى عَنْهُ وَ يُكْتَبُ حي وَلَدَتْ مَرْيَمُ وَ مَرْيَمُ وَلَدَتْ حي يَا حي اهْبِطْ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ السَّاعَةَ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى.
He should write upon a leave tied with a string of non-twisted cotton and fastened to her left thigh. When it is born, cut it (from her thigh) immediately and do not hesitate from him, and he should write: ‘A living one given birth by Maryam-as, and Maryam-as was born alive! O living one, come down to the earth right now by the Permission of Allah-azwj the Exalted!’’[42]
2- طب، طب الأئمة عليهم السلام صَالِحُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْجَهْمِ عَنِ الْمُنَخَّلِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْجُعْفِيِ أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ الْبَاقِرَ ع فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أَغِثْنِي
(The book) ‘Tibb Al-Aimma-asws’, may the greetings be upon them-asws – Salih Bin Ibrahim., from Ibn Fazzal, from Muhammad Bin Al Jahm, from Al Munakkhal, from Jabir Bin Yazeed Al Jufy,
‘A man came to Abu Ja’far Muhammad-asws Bin Ali Al-Baqir-asws. He said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww, help me!’
فَقَالَ وَ مَا ذَاكَ
He-asws said, ‘And what is that?’
قَالَ امْرَأَتِي قَدْ أَشْرَفَتْ عَلَى الْمَوْتِ مِنْ شِدَّةِ الطَّلْقِ
He said, ‘My wife is overlooking upon the death from severity of the birth pangs!’
قَالَ اذْهَبْ وَ اقْرَأْ عَلَيْهَا فَأَجاءَهَا الْمَخاضُ إِلى جِذْعِ النَّخْلَةِ قالَتْ يا لَيْتَنِي مِتُّ قَبْلَ هذا وَ كُنْتُ نَسْياً مَنْسِيًّا فَناداها مِنْ تَحْتِها أَلَّا تَحْزَنِي قَدْ جَعَلَ رَبُّكِ تَحْتَكِ سَرِيًّا وَ هُزِّي إِلَيْكِ بِجِذْعِ النَّخْلَةِ تُساقِطْ عَلَيْكِ رُطَباً جَنِيًّا
He-asws said: ‘Go and read upon her: ‘Then the (pangs of) labour brought her to the palm trunk. She said: ‘I wish I had died before this, and was completely forgotten!’ [19:23] So he (the child) called out to her from beneath her: ‘Do not grieve! Your Lord has Made a stream (to flow) beneath you’ [19:24] And shake towards you the palm trunk, it would drop upon you ripe dates [19:25] [19:26]’.
ثُمَّ ارْفَعْ صَوْتَكَ بِهَذِهِ الْآيَةِ وَ اللَّهُ أَخْرَجَكُمْ مِنْ بُطُونِ أُمَّهاتِكُمْ لا تَعْلَمُونَ شَيْئاً وَ جَعَلَ لَكُمُ السَّمْعَ وَ الْأَبْصارَ وَ الْأَفْئِدَةَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ كَذَلِكَ اخْرُجْ أَيُّهَا الطَّلْقُ اخْرُجْ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّهَا تَبْرَأُ مِنْ سَاعَتِهَا بِعَوْنِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى.
Then raise your voice with this Verse: And Allah Extracted you from the bellies of your mothers, you were not knowing anything, and Made for you the hearing, and the sight, and the heart, perhaps you would be grateful [16:78]. Like that, come out O birth pangs! Come out by the Permission of Allah-azwj!’ She will be free immediately by the Support of Allah-azwj the Exalted’’.[43]

(The book) ‘Tibb Al-Aimma-asws’, may the greetings be upon them-asws – Abdul Wahhab Bin Mahdy, from Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ibn Hammam, from Muhammad Bin Saeed, from Abu Hamza,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws, he-asws said: ‘When giving birth is difficult upon the woman, these Verses should be written for her in a clean utensil with Musk and Saffron. Then he should wash with well water and quench the woman from it and sprinkle upon her belly and her private part with it, for she will give birth immediately!
يُكْتَبُ كَأَنَّهُمْ يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَها لَمْ يَلْبَثُوا إِلَّا عَشِيَّةً أَوْ ضُحاها كَأَنَّهُمْ يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَ ما يُوعَدُونَ لَمْ يَلْبَثُوا إِلَّا ساعَةً مِنْ نَهارٍ بَلاغٌ فَهَلْ يُهْلَكُ إِلَّا الْقَوْمُ الْفاسِقُونَ
He should write: On the Day that they see it, it will be as if they did not remain (in the world) except an evening or its day [79:46] On the Day they see what they are being Promised, it would be as if they had not tarried except for an hour from the day. A notification. So would any be destroyed except for the transgressing people? [46:35].
لَقَدْ كانَ فِي قَصَصِهِمْ عِبْرَةٌ لِأُولِي الْأَلْبابِ ما كانَ حَدِيثاً يُفْتَرى وَ لكِنْ تَصْدِيقَ الَّذِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَ تَفْصِيلَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَ هُدىً وَ رَحْمَةً لِقَوْمٍ يُؤْمِنُونَ.
There was a lesson in their stories for the people of understanding. It was not a fabricated narrative, but (it was) a verification of those before it and a detail of all things, and a Guidance and a Mercy for a believing people [12:111]’’.[44]
4- طب، طب الأئمة عليهم السلام عِيسَى بْنُ دَاوُدَ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُفَضَّلُ بْنُ عُمَرَ عَنْ أَبِي الظَّبْيَانِ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع قَالَ: تَكْتُبُ هَذِهِ الْآيَاتِ فِي قِرْطَاسٍ الْحَامِلُ إِذَا دَخَلَتْ فِي شَهْرِهَا الَّتِي تَلِدُ فِيهِ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يُصِيبُهَا طَلْقٌ وَ لَا عُسْرُ وِلَادَةٍ وَ لْيُلَفَّ عَلَى الْقِرْطَاسِ سَحَاةٌ لَفّاً خَفِيفاً وَ لَا يَرْبِطْهَا وَ لْيَكْتُبْ
(The book) ‘Tibb Al-Aimma-asws’, may the greetings be upon them-asws – Isa Bin Dawood, from Musa Bin Al Qasim who said, ‘It is narrated to us by Al Mufazzal Bin Umar, from Abu Al Zabyan,
‘From Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘These Verses should be written in a paper (for) the pregnant one when the month she will be giving birth in, enters, so she will neither be afflicted by birth pangs, nor difficulty of birth, and let he (husband) compile upon the paper of ‘Sahaat’ (a thorny plant), a light folding and not tie it, let him write: –
أَ وَ لَمْ يَرَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا أَنَّ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضَ كانَتا رَتْقاً فَفَتَقْناهُما وَ جَعَلْنا مِنَ الْماءِ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ حَيٍّ أَ فَلا يُؤْمِنُونَ
‘Or do they not see, those who are committing Kufr, that the skies and the earth were joined up, and We Separated them? And We Made from the water, all living things, so will they not believe? [21:30].
وَ آيَةٌ لَهُمُ اللَّيْلُ نَسْلَخُ مِنْهُ النَّهارَ فَإِذا هُمْ مُظْلِمُونَ وَ الشَّمْسُ تَجْرِي لِمُسْتَقَرٍّ لَها ذلِكَ تَقْدِيرُ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَلِيمِ وَ الْقَمَرَ قَدَّرْناهُ مَنازِلَ حَتَّى عادَ كَالْعُرْجُونِ الْقَدِيمِ لَا الشَّمْسُ يَنْبَغِي لَها أَنْ تُدْرِكَ الْقَمَرَ وَ لَا اللَّيْلُ سابِقُ النَّهارِ وَ كُلٌّ فِي فَلَكٍ يَسْبَحُونَ
And a Sign to them is the night. We Withdraw the day from it, so then they are in darkness [36:37] And the sun flows to a term Appointed for it. That is an Ordainment of the Mighty, the Knower [36:38] And the moon, We Measure stages for it until it returns to be like the old palm branch [36:39] The sun, it is not befitting for it that it should overtake the moon, nor for the night to precede the day, and all are floating in an orbit [36:40].
وَ آيَةٌ لَهُمْ أَنَّا حَمَلْنا ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ فِي الْفُلْكِ الْمَشْحُونِ وَ خَلَقْنا لَهُمْ مِنْ مِثْلِهِ ما يَرْكَبُونَ وَ إِنْ نَشَأْ نُغْرِقْهُمْ فَلا صَرِيخَ لَهُمْ وَ لا هُمْ يُنْقَذُونَ إِلَّا رَحْمَةً مِنَّا وَ مَتاعاً إِلى حِينٍ وَ نُفِخَ فِي الصُّورِ فَإِذا هُمْ مِنَ الْأَجْداثِ إِلى رَبِّهِمْ يَنْسِلُونَ
And a Sign to them – We Carry their offspring in the laden ship [36:41] And We Created for them the like of it, what they are riding upon [36:42] And if We so Desire, We can Drown them, then there will be no responder to them, nor would they be rescued [36:43] But (it is) a Mercy from Us and an enjoyment for a while [36:44] And it would be blown into the Trumpet, so they would be hastening from the graves to their Lord [36:51].
وَ تُكْتَبُ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْقِرْطَاسِ هَذِهِ الْآيَاتُ كَأَنَّهُمْ يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَ ما يُوعَدُونَ لَمْ يَلْبَثُوا إِلَّا ساعَةً مِنْ نَهارٍ بَلاغٌ فَهَلْ يُهْلَكُ إِلَّا الْقَوْمُ الْفاسِقُونَ كَأَنَّهُمْ يَوْمَ يَرَوْنَها لَمْ يَلْبَثُوا إِلَّا عَشِيَّةً أَوْ ضُحاها وَ يُعَلَّقُ الْقِرْطَاسُ فِي وَسَطِهَا فَحِينَ يَقَعُ وَلَدُهَا يُقْطَعُ عَنْهَا وَ لَا يُتْرَكُ عَلَيْهَا سَاعَةً وَاحِدَةً.
And he should write these Verses on the surface of the paper: On the Day they see what they are being Promised, it would be as if they had not tarried except for an hour from the day. A notification. So would any be destroyed except for the transgressing people? [46:35] On the Day that they see it, it will be as if they did not remain (in the world) except an evening or its day [79:46], and he should hang it in her waist. At the time her birth occurs, he should cut it from her and not leave it upon her for even an hour!’’[45]
5- طب، طب الأئمة عليهم السلام سَعْدُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ الزَّاهِرِيِّ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ ظَبْيَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْجُعْفِيِّ قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ إِلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع وَ كَانَ مُؤْمِناً مِنْ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ يُوَالِي آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ إِنَّ جَارِيَتِي قَدْ دَخَلَتْ فِي شَهْرِهَا وَ لَيْسَ لِي وَلَدٌ فَادْعُ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَرْزُقَنِي ابْناً
(The book) ‘Tibb Al-Aimma-asws’, may the greetings be upon them-asws – Sa’ad Bin Mihran, from Muhammad Bin Sadaqa, from Muhammad Bin Sinan Al Zahiry, from Yunus Bin Zabyan, from Muhammad bin Ismail, from Jabir Bin Yazeed Al Jufy who said,
‘A man from the clan of Umayya came to Abu Ja’far-asws, and he was a ‘believer from the people of Pharaoh-la’, befriending Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww. He said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! My slave girl has entered into her month (of giving birth), and there isn’t any son for me, so supplicate to Allah-azwj to Grace me a son!’
فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ ارْزُقْهُ ابْناً ذَكَراً سَوِيّاً
He-asws said: ‘O Allah-azwj, Grace him a son, a complete male!’
ثُمَّ قَالَ إِذَا دَخَلَتْ فِي شَهْرِهَا فَاكْتُبْ لَهَا إِنَّا أَنْزَلْنَاهُ وَ عَوِّذْهَا بِهَذِهِ الْعُوذَةِ وَ مَا فِي بَطْنِهَا بِمِسْكٍ وَ زَعْفَرَانٍ وَ اغْسِلْهَا وَ اسْقِهَا مَاءَهَا وَ انْضِحْ فَرْجَهَا وَ الْعُوذَةُ هَذِهِ
Then he-asws said: ‘When she enters into her month, write for her Surah Al Qadr and seek her Refuge with this amulet and whatever is in her belly, with musk and saffron, and wash it and quench her its water, and sprinkle upon her private part, and the amulet is this: –
أُعِيذُ مَوْلُودِي بِسْمِ اللَّهِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ أَنَّا لَمَسْنَا السَّماءَ فَوَجَدْناها مُلِئَتْ حَرَساً شَدِيداً وَ شُهُباً وَ أَنَّا كُنَّا نَقْعُدُ مِنْها مَقاعِدَ لِلسَّمْعِ فَمَنْ يَسْتَمِعِ الْآنَ يَجِدْ لَهُ شِهاباً رَصَداً
‘I seek Refuge for my newborn in the Name of Allah-azwj, with the Name of Allah-azwj, And we touched the sky, but we found it filled with strong guards and meteors [72:8] And we used to sit in (some of the) sittings from it. But, one who tries to listen in now, would find meteors waiting for him [72:9].
ثُمَّ يَقُولُ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ السَّمِيعِ الْعَلِيمِ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ الرَّجِيمِ أَنَا وَ أَنْتَ وَ الْبَيْتُ وَ مَنْ فِيهِ وَ الدَّارُ وَ مَنْ فِيهَا نَحْنُ كُلُّنَا فِي حِرْزِ اللَّهِ وَ عِصْمَةِ اللَّهِ وَ جِيرَانِ اللَّهِ وَ جِوَارِ اللَّهِ آمِنِينَ مَحْفُوظِينَ
Then he should say, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj! I seek Refuge with Allah-azwj the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing from the Pelted Satan-la! I, and you, and the room and the ones in it, and the house and the ones in it, all of us are in the Protection of Allah-azwj, and Fortification of Allah‑azwj, and in the vicinity of Allah-azwj, and neighbours of Allah-azwj, safe, Protected!’
ثُمَّ تَقْرَأُ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ وَ تَبْدَأُ بِفَاتِحَةِ الْكِتَابِ قَبْلَهُمَا ثُمَّ سُورَةَ الْإِخْلَاصِ ثُمَّ تَقْرَأُ أَ فَحَسِبْتُمْ أَنَّما خَلَقْناكُمْ عَبَثاً وَ أَنَّكُمْ إِلَيْنا لا تُرْجَعُونَ فَتَعالَى اللَّهُ الْمَلِكُ الْحَقُّ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا هُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْكَرِيمِ وَ مَنْ يَدْعُ مَعَ اللَّهِ إِلهاً آخَرَ لا بُرْهانَ لَهُ بِهِ فَإِنَّما حِسابُهُ عِنْدَ رَبِّهِ إِنَّهُ لا يُفْلِحُ الْكافِرُونَ وَ قُلْ رَبِّ اغْفِرْ وَ ارْحَمْ وَ أَنْتَ خَيْرُ الرَّاحِمِينَ لَوْ أَنْزَلْنا هذَا الْقُرْآنَ إِلَى آخِرِ السُّورَةِ
Then you should read Al-Mawazateyn and begin with Surah Al Fatiha before it, then Surah Al Ikhlaas, then you should recite: Did you reckon that rather We had Created you in vain and that you would not be returning to Us?” [23:115] Exalted is Allah, the True King. There is no god except Him, Lord of the Honourable Throne [23:116] And one who supplicates to another god along with Allah, there is no proof for him of it, then rather is account is in the Presence of his Lord. Indeed, the Kafirs will not be successful [23:117] And say: ‘O Lord! Forgive and have Mercy, and You are the best of the Merciful ones!’ [23:118] Had We Revealed this Quran [59:21]! – up to end of the Chapter.
ثُمَّ تَقُولُ مَدْحُورٌ مَنْ يُشَاقُّ اللَّهَ وَ رَسُولَهُ أَقْسَمْتُ عَلَيْكَ يَا بَيْتُ وَ مَنْ فِيكَ بِالْأَسْمَاءِ السَّبْعَةِ وَ الْأَمْلَاكِ السَّبْعَةِ الَّذِينَ يَخْتَلِفُون بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَ الْأَرْضِ مَحْجُوباً عَنْ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةِ وَ مَا فِي بَطْنِهَا كُلُّ عَرَضٍ وَ اخْتِلَاسٍ أَوْ لَمْسٍ أَوْ لُمْعَةٍ أَوْ طَيْفِ مَسٍّ مِنْ إِنْسٍ أَوْ جَانٍّ
Then, he should say, ‘Rejected is the one opposing Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww! I vow upon you, O house and the ones in it, with the seven Names and the seven Angels, those who are interchanging between the sky and the earth veiled from this woman and what is in her belly, (from) every exposure, and concealment, or touch, or gleam, or shadow touching from a human or Jinn!’

الآيات يوسف وَ قالَ يا بَنِيَّ لا تَدْخُلُوا مِنْ بابٍ واحِدٍ وَ ادْخُلُوا مِنْ أَبْوابٍ مُتَفَرِّقَةٍ وَ ما أُغْنِي عَنْكُمْ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ إِنِ الْحُكْمُ إِلَّا لِلَّهِ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَ عَلَيْهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُتَوَكِّلُونَ
The Verses – (Surah) Yusuf-as: And he said: ‘O my sons! Do not be entering from one door, and enter by different doors and I cannot avail you of anything from Allah. The Judgment is only for Allah, on Him do I rely, and upon Him should the relying ones be reliant upon’ [12:67].
وَ لَمَّا دَخَلُوا مِنْ حَيْثُ أَمَرَهُمْ أَبُوهُمْ ما كانَ يُغْنِي عَنْهُمْ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا حاجَةً فِي نَفْسِ يَعْقُوبَ قَضاها وَ إِنَّهُ لَذُو عِلْمٍ لِما عَلَّمْناهُ وَ لكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لا يَعْلَمُونَ.
And when they entered from where their father had instructed them to, it was not going to avail them of anything from Allah except, it was a need of Yaqoub regarding himself he wanted fulfilled, and he was with knowledge of what We had Taught him, but most of the people do not know [12:68].

‘I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about the ‘Al-Nushra’ (Ruqya – incantation) for the bewitched. He‑asws said: ‘My-asws father-asws did not see any problem with it’’.[76]
وَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ: هَذِهِ الْعُوذَةُ الَّتِي أَمْلَاهَا عَلَيْنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَذْكُرُ أَنَّهَا وِرَاثَةٌ وَ أَنَّهَا تُبْطِلُ السِّحْرَ تُكْتَبُ عَلَى وَرَقٍ وَ يُعَلَّقُ عَلَى الْمَسْحُورِ قالَ مُوسى ما جِئْتُمْ بِهِ السِّحْرُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ سَيُبْطِلُهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لا يُصْلِحُ عَمَلَ الْمُفْسِدِينَ وَ يُحِقُّ اللَّهُ الْحَقَّ بِكَلِماتِهِ وَ لَوْ كَرِهَ الْمُجْرِمُونَ أَ أَنْتُمْ أَشَدُّ خَلْقاً أَمِ السَّماءُ بَناها رَفَعَ سَمْكَها فَسَوَّاها الْآيَاتِ
And from Muhammad Bin Muslim who said,
‘This is the amulet which Abu Abdullah-asws had dictated to us. He-asws mentioned that it is an inheritance and it invalidates the sorcery You should write on a paper and hung upon the bewitched: –
Musa said to them: ‘What you have come with is the sorcery; surely Allah would be Invalidating it; surely Allah does not Rectify the deeds of the corrupters [10:81] And Allah will Prove the Truth to be true by His Words, and even if the criminals dislike it [10:82] Are you the harder to create or the sky? He Built it [79:27] He Raised its ceiling, then Evened it [79:28].
فَوَقَعَ الْحَقُّ وَ بَطَلَ ما كانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ فَغُلِبُوا هُنالِكَ وَ انْقَلَبُوا صاغِرِينَ وَ أُلْقِيَ السَّحَرَةُ ساجِدِينَ قالُوا آمَنَّا بِرَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ رَبِّ مُوسى وَ هارُونَ.
Thus they were overcome over there and they returned belittled [7:119] And the sorcerers fell down prostrating [7:120] They said, ‘We believe in the Lord of the Worlds, [7:121] Lord of Musa and Haroun [7:122]’’.[77]

‘For the (evil) eye – Muammar Bin Khallad said, ‘I was with Al-Reza-asws at Khurasan (in charge) upon his-asws expenditure. He-asws instructed me to take (buy some) expensive perfume for him-asws.

The (evil) eye is true, so write in a note paper, (Surahs) Al Fatiha, and Al Tawheed, and Al Mawazateyn, and Ayat Al Kursy, and make these to be in a wrapping of the bottle’’.[81]
وَ مِثْلُهُ وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ: الْعَيْنُ حَقٌّ وَ لَيْسَ تَأْمَنُهَا مِنْكَ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ وَ لَا مِنْكَ عَلَى غَيْرِكَ فَإِذَا خِفْتَ شَيْئاً مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَقُلْ ما شاءَ اللَّهُ لا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ ثَلَاثاً
And similar to it, and it is reported,

And from him-asws, said: ‘One whom something from his brother fascinates him, let him Bless upon him, for the (evil) eye is true’’.[83]

And he-saww said: ‘There is no Ruqya (incantation) except from fever and the (evil) eye’’.[84]
فِي السِّحْرِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ الرِّضَا ع عَنِ السِّحْرِ قَالَ هُوَ حَقٌّ وَ هُمْ يُضِرُّونَ بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ فَإِذَا أَصَابَكَ ذَلِكَ فَارْفَعْ يَدَكَ بِحِذَاءِ وَجْهِكَ وَ اقْرَأْ عَلَيْهَا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ رَبِّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ إِلَّا ذَهَبَتْ وَ انْقَرَضَتْ
Regarding the sorcery, from Muhammad Bin Isa who said, ‘I asked Al-Reza-asws about the sorcery. He-asws said: ‘It is true, and they will be harming by the Permission of Allah-azwj. Whenever that afflicts you, raise your hand parallel to your face and read upon it, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Magnificent, Lord-azwj of the Magnificent Throne!’, except it will be gone and vanish!’

He (the narrator) said, ‘And a man asked him about the (evil) eye. He-asws said: ‘It is true! Whenever that afflicts you, raise your palms parallel to your face and read (Surahs) Al Hamd, and Al Tawheed, and Al Mawazateyn, and wipe these upon your forelocks, for it will benefit by the Permission on Allah-azwj!’’[85]
رُوِيَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ قَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص سَحَرَهُ لَبِيدُ بْنُ أَعْصَمَ الْيَهُودِيُّ فَأَتَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ بِالْمُعَوِّذَتَيْنِ فَدَعَا عَلِيّاً ع فَعَقَدَ لَهُ خَيْطاً فِيهِ اثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ عُقْدَةً ثُمَّ قَالَ انْطَلِقْ إِلَى بِئْرِ ذَرْوَانَ فَانْزِلْ إِلَى الْقَلِيبِ فَاقْرَأْ آيَةً وَ حُلَّ عُقْدَةً
It is reported from Abu Abdullah-asws, he-asws was asked about Al Mawazateyn. He-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww had been bewitched by Labeed Bin A’asam the Jew, so Jibraeel-as came to him-saww with Al Mawazateyn (Chapters 113 & 114). He-saww called Ali-asws. He-saww tied a string for him-asws have twelve knots for it, then said: ‘Go to the well of Zarwan, descend into the well and read a Verse and until a knot (twelve times)’.
فَنَزَلَ عَلِيٌّ وَ اسْتَخْرَجَ مِنَ الْقَلِيبِ فَتَحَالَلَ ذَلِكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص.
Ali-asws descended and extracted from the well and untied that on behalf of Rasool-Allah‑saww’’.[86]
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: إِنَّ لَبِيدَ بْنَ أَعْصَمَ سَحَرَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص ثُمَّ دَسَّ ذَلِكَ فِي بِئْرٍ لِبَنِي زُرَيْقٍ فَمَرِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فَبَيْنَا هُوَ نَائِمٌ إِذْ أَتَاهُ مَلَكَانِ فَقَعَدَ أَحَدُهُمَا عِنْدَ رَأْسِهِ وَ الْآخَرُ عِنْدَ رِجْلَيْهِ فَأَخْبَرَاهُ بِذَلِكَ وَ إِنَّهُ فِي بِئْرِ ذَرْوَانَ فِي جُفِّ طَلْعَةٍ تَحْتَ رَاعُوفَةٍ وَ الْجُفُّ قِشْرُ الطَّلْعِ وَ الرَّاعُوفَةُ حَجَرٌ فِي أَسْفَلِ الْبِئْرِ يَقُومُ عَلَيْهِ الْمَاتِحُ
From Ibn Abbas who said, ‘Labeed Bin A’asam bewitched Rasool-Allah-azwj, then tucked that away in a well of the can of Zureyq. Rasool-Allah-saww became sick. While he-saww was sleeping, two Angels came to him-saww. One of them sat by his-saww head and the other by his-saww legs, and informed him-saww of that and that it was in a well of Zarwan in a narrow shaft beneath a boulder, (and the shaft is husk of the date palm and the boulder is a stone in the bottom of the well, the pulleys stand upon it.
فَانْتَبَهَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ بَعَثَ عَلِيّاً وَ الزُّبَيْرَ وَ عَمَّاراً فَنَزَحُوا مَاءَ تِلْكَ الْبِئْرِ ثُمَّ رَفَعُوا الصَّخْرَةَ وَ أَخْرَجُوا الْجُفَّ فَإِذَا فِيهِ مُشَاطَةُ رَأْسِهِ وَ أَسْنَانٌ مِنْ مَشْطِهِ وَ إِذَا هُوَ مُعَقَّدٌ فِيهِ إِحْدَى عَشْرَةَ عُقْدَةً مَغْرُوزَةً بِالْإِبْرَةِ
Rasool-Allah-saww woke up and sent Ali-asws and Al-Zubeyr and Ammar-ra. They displace the water of that well, then raised the stone and extracted the packet. Behold, in it were combings (hair) of his-saww head and teeth of his-saww comb, and in it were eleven knots entangle, pierced with the needle.
فَنَزَلَتْ هَاتَانِ السُّورَتَانِ فَجَعَلَ كُلَّمَا يَقْرَأُ آيَةً انْحَلَّتْ عُقْدَةٌ وَ وَجَدَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص خِفَّةً فَقَامَ كَأَنَّمَا أُنْشِطَ مِنْ عِقَالٍ وَ جَعَلَ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع يَقُولُ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَرْقِيكَ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ يُؤْذِيكَ مِنْ حَاسِدٍ وَ عَيْنٍ وَ اللَّهُ يَشْفِيكَ.
Thus, these two Chapters were Revealed. Every time he-asws read a Verse, he-asws went on to untie a knot, and Rasool-Allah-saww felt lightness. He-saww stood up as it he-saww had been activated from cramps, and Jibraeel-as went on to say: ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj! I-as perform Ruqya (incantation) for you-saww from all things hurting your, from an envier and (evil) eye, and Allah-azwj will Heal you-saww!’’[87]
أُخْرَى لِلسِّحْرِ يُكْتَبُ فِي رَقٍّ وَ يُعَلَّقُ عَلَيْهِ قالَ مُوسى ما جِئْتُمْ بِهِ السِّحْرُ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ الْمُفْسِدِينَ وَ أَوْحَيْنا إِلى مُوسى إِلَى قَوْلِهِ فَوَقَعَ الْحَقُّ وَ بَطَلَ ما كانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ فَغُلِبُوا هُنالِكَ وَ انْقَلَبُوا صاغِرِينَ.
Another for the sorcery – ‘He should write in a note paper and hang it upon him: Musa said to them: ‘What you have come with is the sorcery – up to His-azwj Words – corrupters [10:81] And We Revealed to Musa [7:117] – up to His-azwj Words: So the truth was established, and what they were doing was falsified [7:118] Thus they were overcome over there and they returned belittled [7:119]!’’[88]
أُخْرَى يَتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ سَنَشُدُّ عَضُدَكَ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ وَ مَنِ اتَّبَعَكُمَا الْغالِبُونَ.
Another – He should speak with it seven times: “We will Strengthen your arm – up to His-azwj Words – the ones who follow you two, would be victorious!” [28:35]’’.[89]
عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع قَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص سَأَلَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ أَنَّ لِي زَوْجاً وَ بِهِ غِلْظَةٌ وَ إِنِّي صَنَعْتُ شَيْئاً لِأُعَطِّفَهُ عَلَيَّ
From Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww, a woman asked him-saww, ‘There is a husband for me and there is harshness with him, and I have done something to make him compassionate to me’.
فَقَالَ ص أُفٍّ لَكِ كَدَرْتِ التِّجَارَةَ وَ كَدَرْتِ الْعَيْنَ وَ لَعَنَتْكِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ الْأَخْيَارُ وَ مَلَائِكَةُ السَّمَاءِ وَ الْأَرْضِ
He-saww said: ‘Ugh to you! You have dirtied the trade and dirties the eye, and you are cursed by the Angels of the good ones, and Angels of the sky and the earth!’
فَصَامَتْ نَهَارَهَا وَ قَامَتْ لَيْلَهَا وَ حَلَقَتْ رَأْسَهَا وَ لَبِسَتِ الْمُسُوحَ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ص فَقَالَ إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَا يُقْبَلُ مِنْهَا
She fasted her day, and stood her night (in Salat), and shaved off her head, and wore the fur. (News of) that reached the Prophet-saww. He-saww said: ‘That is not acceptable from her!’
فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لِمَ لَا يُقْتَلُ سَاحِرُ الْكُفَّارِ
It was said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Why won’t the Kafir sorcerer be killed?’
روى الصدوق في الفقيه ج 3 ص 371 عن السكونى، عن جعفر بن محمّد، عن أبيه عن آبائه عليهم السلام قال: قال رسول اللّه: ساحر المسلمين يقتل، و ساحر الكفّار لا يقتل، فقيل يا رسول اللّه لم لا يقتل ساحر الكفّار؟
Note – It is reported by Al-Sadouq in (the book) ‘Al-Faqeeh’ V 3, P 371, from Al-Sakuny, from Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws, from his-asws father-asws, from his-asws forefathers-asws, may the greetings be upon them-asws. He-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘Sorcerer of the Muslims, will be killed, and sorcerer of the Kafir will not be killed. It was said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Why won’t the Kafir sorcerer be killed?’

And Amir Al-Momineen-asws: ‘When the Satan-la insinuates to anyone of you, let him seek Refuge with Allah-azwj and let him say with his tongue and his heart, ‘I believe in Allah-azwj and His-azwj Rasool-saww, being sincere to Him-azwj in the religion!’
لِضِيقِ الْقَلْبِ يَقْرَأُ سَبْعَةَ عَشَرَ يَوْماً أَ لَمْ نَشْرَحْ إِلَى آخِرِهِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ مَرَّتَيْنِ مَرَّةً بِالْغَدَاةِ وَ مَرَّةً بِالْعِشَاءِ.
For constriction of the heart, he should read for seventeen days Surah Al Inshirah up to its end, twice every day in the morning and once in the evening’’.[115]
4- نُقِلَ مِنْ خَطِّ الشَّهِيدِ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص أَنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ اثْنَانِ شَيْطَانُ الْجِنِّ وَ يَبْعُدُ بِلَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْعَظِيمِ وَ شَيْطَانُ الْإِنْسِ وَ يَبْعُدُ بِالصَّلَاةِ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ وَ آلِهِ.
It is copied from the handwriting of Al-Shaheed, may Allah-azwj Mercy him, from the Prophet‑saww: ‘The Satan-la are two (types), Satan-la of the Jinn, and he-la is distanced by, ‘There is neither might nor strength except with Allah-azwj the Exalted, the Magnificent’; and Satan-la of the humans, he-la is distance with the Salawaat upon the Prophet-saww and his-saww Progeny‑asws’’.[116]
وَ مِنْهُ عَنْ أَبِي زُمَيْلٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ عَمَّا يَجِدُ الْإِنْسَانُ فِي صَدْرِهِ مِنَ الشَّكِّ فَقَالَ مَا نَجَا مِنْ ذَلِكَ أَحَدٌ وَ قَدْ أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ فِي شَكٍّ إِذَا وَجَدْتَ ذَلِكَ فَقُلْ هُوَ الْأَوَّلُ وَ الْآخِرُ وَ الظَّاهِرُ وَ الْباطِنُ وَ هُوَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ.
And from him, from Abu Zumeyl who said,
‘I asked Ibn Abbas about what the human being feels in his chest, from the doubt. He said, ‘No one is saved from that, and Allah-azwj has Revealed that whenever you are in doubt, when you feel that, then say, He is the First and the Last, and the Apparent and the Hidden, and He is a Knower of all things [57:3]’’.[117] (Not a Hadeeth)
وَ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي الْعَاصِ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ بَيْنَ صَلَاتِي وَ قِرَاءَتِي
And from Usman Bin Abu Al-Aas, ‘I said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! The Satan-la is a barrier between my Salat and my recitation!’
قَالَ ذَلِكَ شَيْطَانٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ خَيْزَبُ فَإِذَا أَحْسَسْتَ بِهِ فَتَعَوَّذْ بِاللَّهِ مِنْهُ وَ اتْفُلْ عَنْ يَسَارِكَ ثَلَاثاً.
He-saww said: ‘That is a Satan-la called ‘Khayzab’. When you sense him-la, seek Refuge with Allah‑azwj from him-la and spit on your left three times’’.[118]

‘From Abu Abdullah Al-Sadiq-asws, he (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww! I find disturbance in my chest and insinuations in my heart to the extent sometimes my Salat and my recitation is cut off upon me!’
قَالَ وَ أَيْنَ أَنْتَ مِنْ عُوذَةِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع
He-asws said: ‘And where are you from the amulet of Amir Al-Momineen-asws?’
قُلْتُ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ عَلِّمْنِي
I said, ‘O son-asws of Rasool-Allah-saww, teach me!’
قَالَ إِذَا أَحْسَسْتَ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَضَعْ يَدَكَ عَلَيْهِ وَ قُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ بِاللَّهِ اللَّهُمَّ مَنَنْتَ عَلَيَّ بِالْإِيمَانِ وَ أَوْدَعْتَنِي الْقُرْآنَ وَ رَزَقْتَنِي صِيَامَ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَامْنُنْ عَلَيَّ بِالرَّحْمَةِ وَ الرِّضْوَانِ وَ الرَّأْفَةِ وَ الْغُفْرَانِ وَ تَمَامِ مَا أَوْلَيْتَنِي مِنَ النِّعَمِ وَ الْإِحْسَانِ
He-asws said: ‘Whenever you sense something from that, place your hand upon it and say, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj and by Allah-azwj! You-azwj Conferment upon me with the Eman and Your‑azwj Entrusted me the Quran, and Graced me Fasting the month of Ramazan, so Confer upon me with the Mercy, and the Satisfaction, and the Kindness, and the Forgiveness, and Complete what You-azwj have Bestowed upon me of the bounties and the Favours!

O Affectionate! O Bestower! O Permanent! O Beneficent! Glory be to You-azwj, and there isn’t anyone besides You-azwj! Glory be to You-azwj! I seek Refuge with You-azwj after these Honours from the insignificance, and I ask You-azwj to Remove the griefs from my heart!’ – saying it thrice, for you will recover from it by the Assistance of Allah-azwj the Exalted Then send Salawaat upon the Prophet-saww, and the greetings upon them-asws, and Mercy of Allah-azwj!’’[119]
بيان: قوله ع فضع يدك عليه أي على الفؤاد كما يظهر من الخبر الآتي أيضا و لما كان الصدر محلا للفؤاد فينبغي وضع اليد على الصدر.
Explanation of his-asws words: ‘Place your hand upon it’ -i.e. upon the heart just as is apparent from the Hadeeth which will be coming as well, and due to the chest being the place for the heart, it is befitting to place the hand upon the chest.

‘A man said to Abu Abdullah Al-Sadiq-asws, ‘When I am alone with myself, loneliness and worries enter into me, and when I mingle with the people, I am not good with anything from that!’
فَقَالَ ضَعْ يَدَكَ عَلَى فُؤَادِكَ وَ قُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ امْسَحْ يَدَكَ عَلَى فُؤَادِكَ وَ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِعِزَّةِ اللَّهِ وَ أَعُوذُ بِقُدْرَةِ اللَّهِ وَ أَعُوذُ بِجَلَالِ اللَّهِ وَ أَعُوذُ بِعَظَمَةِ اللَّهِ وَ أَعُوذُ بِجَمْعِ اللَّهِ وَ أَعُوذُ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ وَ أَعُوذُ بِأَسْمَاءِ اللَّهِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَحْذَرُ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَخَافُ عَلَى نَفْسِي تَقُولُ ذَلِكَ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ
He-asws said: ‘Place your hand upon your heart and say, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj! In the Name of Allah-azwj! In the Name of Allah-azwj!’ Then wipe your hand upon your heart and say, ‘I seek Refuge with the Might of Allah-azwj, and I seek Refuge with the Power of Allah-azwj, and I seek Refuge with the Majesty of Allah-azwj, and I seek Refuge with the Magnificence of Allah-azwj, and I seek Refuge with the Whole of Allah-azwj, and I seek refuge with Rasool-Allah-saww, and I seek Refuge with the Names of Allah-azwj, from evil of what I am cautious of, and from evil of what I fear upon myself!’, saying that seven times.
قَالَ فَفَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَأَذْهَبَ اللَّهُ عَنِّي الْوَحْشَةَ وَ أَبْدَلَنِي الْأُنْسَ وَ الْأَمْنَ.

(The book) ‘Tibb Al-Aimma-asws’, may the greetings be upon them-asws – Al Husayn Bin Bistaam, from Muhammad Bin Khalaf, from Al Hassan Bin Ali Al Washa, from Abdullah Bin Sinan who said,
‘A man complained to Abu Abdullah-asws of the abundance of wishes and the insinuations. He‑asws said: ‘Place your hand upon your chest, then say, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj, and by Allah-azwj! Muhammad-saww is Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj, and there is neither might nor strength except with Allah-azwj the Exalted, the Magnificent! O Allah-azwj! Wipe away from me what I am cautious of!’ Then pass your hand upon your belly and say (it) three times, for Allah-azwj will Wipe away from you and Exchange (it)’.
قَالَ الرَّجُلُ فَكُنْتُ كَثِيراً مَا أَقْطَعُ صَلَاتِي مِمَّا يُفْسِدُ عَلَيَّ التَّمَنِّيَ وَ الْوَسْوَسَةَ فَفَعَلْتُ مَا أَمَرَنِي بِهِ سَيِّدِي وَ مَوْلَايَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَصَرَفَ اللَّهُ عَنِّي وَ عُوفِيتُ مِنْهُ فَلَمْ أَحُسَّ بِهِ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ.
The man said, ‘I used to frequently cut my Salat from what corrupted upon the wishes and the insinuations. I did what my Chief and my Master had instructed me with, three times, so Allah-azwj Turned it away from me and I recovered from it, and I have not felt it after that’’.[121]

(The book) ‘Al Amaali’ of Al Sadouq – Ibn Al Mutawakkil, from Al Sa’adabady, from Al Barqy, from his father, from Ahmad Bin Al Nazr, from Abu Jameela, from Abu Tareyf, from Ibn Nubata,
‘From Ali-asws having said: ‘The Jews came to a woman from them call Abdah. They said, ‘O Abdah! You do know that Muhammad has destroyed the pillars of the children of Israel and demolished the Judaism, and the assembly of the children of Israel has concocted this expensive poison for him-saww, and they have made an ingredient for you to poison him -saww in this sheep!’
فَعَمَدَتْ عَبْدَةُ إِلَى الشَّاةِ فَشَوَتْهَا ثُمَّ جَمَعَتِ الرُّؤَسَاءَ فِي بَيْتِهَا وَ أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالَتْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ مَا تُوجَبُ لِي مِنْ حَقِّ الْجِوَارِ وَ قَدْ حَضَرَنِي رُؤَسَاءُ الْيَهُودِ فَزَيِّنِّي بِأَصْحَابِكَ
Abdah deliberated to a sheep and grilled. Then she gathered the chiefs in her house, and Rasool-Allah-saww came. She said, ‘O Muhammad-saww! You-saww do know what is obligated for me, from the neighbourly rights, and the chiefs of the Jews have presented to me, so adorn me with your-saww companions!’
فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ مَعَهُ عَلِيٌّ ع وَ أَبُو دُجَانَةَ وَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ وَ سَهْلُ بْنُ حُنَيْفٍ وَ جَمَاعَةٌ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ فَلَمَّا دَخَلُوا وَ أَخْرَجَتِ الشَّاةَ سَدَّتِ الْيَهُودُ آنَافَهَا بِالصُّوفِ وَ قَامُوا عَلَى أَرْجُلِهِمْ وَ تَوَكَّئُوا عَلَى عِصِيِّهِمْ
Rasool-Allah-saww stood up, and with him-saww were Ali-asws, and Abu Dajjana, and Abu Ayoub, and Sahl Bin Huneyf, and a group of Emigrants. When they entered and she brought the (grilled) sheep, the Jews blocked their noses with the wool and stood upon their feet and reclined upon their walking sticks.
فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص اقْعُدُوا
Rasool-Allah-saww said to them: ‘Be seated!’
فَقَالُوا إِنَّا إِذَا زَارَنَا نَبِيٌّ لَمْ يَقْعُدْ مِنَّا أَحَدٌ وَ كَرِهْنَا أَنْ يَصِلَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ أَنْفَاسِنَا مَا يَتَأَذَّى بِهِ
They said, ‘We are such, whenever we visit a Prophet-saww, no one from us sits down, and we dislike for our breaths to arrive to him-as what he-as might be bothered with!’
وَ كَذَبَتِ الْيَهُودُ عَلَيْهَا لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ إِنَّمَا فَعَلَتْ ذَلِكَ مَخَافَةَ سَوْرَةِ السَّمِّ وَ دُخَانِهِ
And the Jews lied, may Allah-azwj Curse them! But rather, they had done that fearing the toxic smell and its smoke.
فَلَمَّا وُضِعَتِ الشَّاةُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ تَكَلَّمَ كَتِفُهَا فَقَالَتْ مَهْ يَا مُحَمَّدُ لَا تَأْكُلْنِي فَإِنِّي مَسْمُومَةٌ
When the sheep was placed in front of him-saww, its shoulder spoke. It said, ‘No, O Muhammad‑saww! Do not eat me, for I am poisoned!’
فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص عَبْدَةَ فَقَالَ مَا حَمَلَكِ عَلَى مَا صَنَعْتِ
Rasool-Allah-saww called Abdah. He-saww said: ‘What carried you upon what you did?’

14- أَقُولُ أَوْرَدْنَا فِي بَابِ جَوَامِعِ مُعْجِزَاتِ الرَّسُولِ ص عَنْ تَفْسِيرِ الْإِمَامِ ع أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص وَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى الذِّرَاعِ الْمَسْمُومَةِ وَ نَفَثَ فِيهِ وَ قَالَ
I am saying, ‘We have referred in the chapter ‘Summary of miracles of the Rasool-saww’, from Tafseer of the Imam (Hassan Al-Askari-asws), that the Prophet-saww place his-saww hand upon the poisoned arm (of a grilled sheep) and puffed into it and said:
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الشَّافِي بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الْكَافِي بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الْمُعَافِي بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الَّذِي لَا يَضُرُّ مَعَ اسْمِهِ شَيْءٌ وَ لَا دَاءٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَ لا فِي السَّماءِ وَ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ
‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Healer! In the Name of Allah-azwj the Sufficient! In the Name of Allah-azwj the Pardoner! In the Name of Allah-azwj Who, with His-azwj Name, nothing harms, neither an illness in the earth nor in the sky, and He-azwj is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing!’
ثُمَّ قَالَ كُلُوا عَلَى اسْمِ اللَّهِ فَأَكَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ أَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا وَ لَمْ يَضُرَّهُمْ شَيْئاً.
Then he-saww said: ‘Eat in the Name of Allah-azwj!’ So Rasool-Allah-saww ate, and they (companions) ate until they were satiated, and nothing harmed them’’.[138]
15- مكا، مكارم الأخلاق عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: مَنْ قَالَ هَذِهِ الْكَلِمَاتِ فَأَنَا ضَامِنٌ أَنْ لَا يُصِيبَهُ عَقْرَبٌ وَ لَا هَامَّةٌ حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ أَعُوذُ بِكَلِمَاتِ اللَّهِ التَّامَّاتِ الَّتِي لَا يُجَاوِزُهُنَّ بَرٌّ وَ لَا فَاجِرٌ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا ذَرَأَ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا بَرَأَ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ دَابَّةٍ هُوَ آخِذٌ بِنَاصِيَتِهَا إِنَّ رَبِّي عَلَى صِرَاطٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ.
(The book) ‘Makarim Al Akhlaq’ –
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘One who says these phrases, I-asws am a guarantor that he will neither be hit by a scorpion nor vermin until morning – ‘I seek Refuge with the complete Phrases of Allah-azwj which neither a righteous nor an immoral can surpass, from evil of what He-azwj has Scattered, and from evil of what He-azwj has Formed, and from evil of every animal He-azwj Seizes it by its forelock. Surely, my Lord is upon the Straight Path [11:56]!’’[139]
كَانَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ الرِّضَا ع إِذَا نَظَرَ إِلَى هَذِهِ الْكَوْكَبِ الَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهَا السُّهَا فِي بَنَاتِ نَعْشٍ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ هُودِ بْنِ آسِيَةَ آمِنِّي شَرَّ كُلِّ عَقْرَبٍ وَ حَيَّةٍ
It was so, whenever Abu Al-Hassan Al-Reza-asws looked at this star which is called ‘Al-Suha’ among the daughters of ‘Na’ash’ (the star Alcor in Ursa Major), he-asws said: ‘O Allah-azwj! Lord‑azwj of Hud Bin Aasiya-asws! Secure me from evil of every scorpion and snake’.
قَالَ وَ كَانَ يَقُولُ مَنْ تَعَوَّذَ بِهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ حِينَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهَا بِاللَّيْلِ لَمْ يُصِبْهُ عَقْرَبٌ وَ لَا حَيَّةٌ.
He (the narrator) said, ‘And he-asws had said: ‘One who seeks Refuge with it three times when he looks at it at night, neither scorpion nor snake will hit (sting) him!’’[140]
آخَرُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ لَهُ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ إِنِّي خِفْتُ الْعَقَارِبَ
Another of Abu Abdullah-asws – Is’haq Bin Ammar said to him-asws, ‘I fear the scorpions!’
فَقَالَ لَهُ انْظُرْ إِلَى بَنَاتِ نَعْشٍ الْكَوَاكِبِ الثَّلَاثَةِ الْأَوْسَطِ مِنْهَا بِجَنْبِهِ كَوْكَبٌ صَغِيرٌ قَرِيبٌ مِنْهُ تُسَمِّيهِ الْعَرَبُ السُّهَا وَ نُسَمِّيهِ نَحْنُ أَسْلَمَ تُحِدُّ النَّظَرَ إِلَيْهِ كُلَّ لَيْلَةٍ وَ قُلْ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ أَسْلَمَ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَجِّلْ فَرَجَهُمْ وَ سَلِّمْنَا مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ ذِي شَرٍّ
He-asws said to him: ‘Look at the daughters of Na’ash (Ursa Major), the three stars in the middle of it. By its side there is small one the Arabs name it as ‘Al-Suha’ (Alcor), and we name it as ‘Aslam’. Gaze the looking at it every night and say three times, ‘O Allah-azwj! Lord-azwj of ‘Aslam’ (the star Alcor)! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and Hasten their -asws relief, and Keep us safe from evil of every one with evil!’’
قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ فَمَا تَرَكْتُهُ فِي دَهْرِي إِلَّا مَرَّةً فَضَرَبَنِي الْعَقْرَبُ.
Is’haq’ said, ‘I did not neglect it during my lifetime except once, and the scorpion stung me!’’[141]
دَعَوَاتُ الرَّاوَنْدِيِّ، مِثْلَهُ وَ فِيهِ أَحِدَّ النَّظَرَ إِلَيْهِ ثَلَاثاً وَ لَيْسَ فِيهِ مِنْ شَرِّ كُلِّ ذِي شَرٍّ.

Similar to it, and in it, ‘Gaze the looking at it three times’, and there isn’t in it, ‘From evil of every one with evil’’.[142]
16- مكا، مكارم الأخلاق عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: مَنْ خَافَ الْأَسَدَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَوْ عَلَى غَنَمِهِ فَلْيَخُطَّ عَلَيْهَا بِخَطٍّ وَ لْيَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ دَانِيَالَ وَ الْجُبِّ وَ رَبَّ كُلِّ أَسَدٍ مُسْتَأْسِدٍ احْفَظْنِي وَ احْفَظْ عَلَيَّ غَنَمِي.

‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘One who fears the lion upon himself or upon his sheep, let him draw a line upon it (marking the territory of his sheep), and let him say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Lord-azwj of Dainel-as and the pit, and Lord-azwj of every preying lion! Protect me and Protect my sheep for me!’’[143]
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ يَا عَلِيُّ إِذَا رَأَيْتَ أَسَداً أَوِ اشْتَدَّ بِكَ أَمْرٌ فَكَبِّرْ ثَلَاثاً وَ قُلِ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَ أَجَلُّ وَ أَعَزُّ وَ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَ أَكْبَرُ وَ أَعَزُّ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ وَ أَقْدَرُ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَخَافُ وَ أَحْذَرُ تُكْفَ سُوءَهُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى
From the Prophet -saww having said to Ali-asws: ‘O Ali-asws! When you see a lion or a matter is severe with you, exclaim three times and say, ‘Allah-azwj is Greater, and most Majestic, and Mightier, and more Magnificent than all things, and Greater and Mightier than His-azwj creatures, and more Able! I seek Refuge with Allah-azwj than evil of what I fear and am cautious of!’ You will stop his evil, if Allah-azwj the Exalted Desires’.
فِيمَنْ يَخَافُ الْكِلَابَ وَ السِّبَاعَ فَلْيَقُلْ قُلْ لِلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا يَغْفِرُوا لِلَّذِينَ لا يَرْجُونَ أَيَّامَ اللَّهِ لِيَجْزِيَ قَوْماً بِما كانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ
Regarding the one who fears the dogs and the wild animals – ‘Let him say, Say to those who believe, they should be seeking Forgiveness for those who do not hope for the days of Allah, for Him to Recompense a people due to what they had been earning [45:14].
وَ إِذا قَرَأْتَ الْقُرْآنَ جَعَلْنا بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ الَّذِينَ لا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِالْآخِرَةِ حِجاباً مَسْتُوراً
And whenever you recite the Quran, We Make a hidden veil to be between you and those who are no believing in the Hereafter [17:45].
وَ جَعَلْنا عَلى قُلُوبِهِمْ أَكِنَّةً أَنْ يَفْقَهُوهُ وَ فِي آذانِهِمْ وَقْراً وَ إِنْ يَرَوْا كُلَّ آيَةٍ لا يُؤْمِنُوا بِها حَتَّى إِذا جاؤُكَ يُجادِلُونَكَ يَقُولُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِنْ هذا إِلَّا أَساطِيرُ الْأَوَّلِينَ.
And from them is one who listens attentively to you, and We Made a covering to be upon their hearts lest they understand it, and a deafness to be in their earns, and even if they see every Sign, they will not be believing in it, until they come to you disputing with you. Those committing Kufr are saying, ‘These are nothing but stories of the former ones [6:25]’’.[144]

For the scorpions and the snakes – from Al-Sadiq-asws having said: ‘He should read in the evening, ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj, and by Allah-azwj, and my Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny-asws!

Another from him-asws as well. He-asws said: ‘A group came to Rasool-Allah-saww complaining of the scorpions and what they were facing from these. He-saww said: ‘When you come to a morning and evening, say, ‘I seek Refuge with the complete Phrases of Allah-azwj, all of them, which neither nor an immoral can surpass, which its neighbour does not see, from evil of what He-azwj has Scattered, and from evil of what He-azwj has Formed, and from the evil of Satan-la and his-la associates, and from evil of every animal, He-azwj Seizes it by its forelock. Surely, my Lord is upon the Straight Path [11:56]!’ – seven times’.

‘In the Name of Allah-azwj! (بِسْمِ اللَّهِ سجه سجه قرنيه برنيه ملحه بحرقعيا برقعيا تعطا قطعه)’.
تُرْوَى هَذِهِ الرُّقْيَةُ لِلْحَيَّةِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص أَنَّهُ قَالَ تَكْتُبُهُ وَ تَضَعُهُ فِي شَقِّ حَائِطِ الْبَيْتِ فَإِنَّهُ يَسْقُطُ وَ يَنْشَقُّ بِنِصْفَيْنِ.
This Ruqya (incantation) has been reported for the snakes, from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘Write it and place it in a crevice of a wall of the house, for it (snake) will fall and split into two halves’’.[150]

A Ruqya (incantation) for the fleas – He should say, ‘O black leapers who don’t care about locks nor doors!

Then he-saww called for water and read (Surahs) Al Hamd and Al Mawazateyn upon it, then gulped a gulp from it. Then he-saww called for water and warmed it in the water and went on to rub that place until it settled.
وَ لَمَّا رَكِبَ نُوحٌ ع فِي السَّفِينَةِ أَبَى أَنْ يَحْمِلَ الْعَقْرَبَ مَعَهُ فَقَالَ عَاهَدْتُكَ أَنْ لَا أَلْسَعَ أَحَداً يَقُولُ سَلامٌ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلى نُوحٍ فِي الْعالَمِينَ.
And when Noah-as sailed in the ship, he-as refused to carry the scorpion with him-as. He-as said: ‘I-as make a pact with you that you will not sting anyone saying greetings upon Muhammad‑saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and upon Noah among the nations [37:79]’’.[153]

اسْتَتَرْتُ بِاللَّهِ وَ بِهِمَا وَ امْتَنَعْتُ بِاللَّهِ وَ بِهِمَا وَ احْتَجَبْتُ بِاللَّهِ وَ بِهِمَا مِنْ شَرِّ فَسَقَتِكُمْ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ فَسَقَةِ الْإِنْسِ وَ الْعَرَبِ وَ الْعَجَمِ فَإِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ حَسْبِيَ اللَّهُ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا هُوَ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَ هُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ
I conceal with Allah-azwj and with them-asws both, and I defend with Allah-azwj and with them‑asws, and I veil with Allah-azwj and with them-asws, from evil of your mischief, and from evil of mischief of the humans, and the Arabs and the non-Arabs. But if they turn back, say: ‘Allah is Sufficient for me, there is no God but He; upon Him do I rely, and He is Lord of the Magnificent Throne [9:129]!
لَا سَبِيلَ لَكُمْ وَ لَا سُلْطَانَ قَهَرْتُ سُلْطَانَكُمْ بِسُلْطَانِ اللَّهِ وَ بَطْشَكُمْ بِبَطْشِ اللَّهِ وَ قَهَرْتُ مَكْرَكُمْ وَ حَبَائِلَكُمْ وَ كَيْدَكُمْ وَ رَجِلَكُمْ وَ خَيْلَكُمْ وَ سُلْطَانَكُمْ وَ بَطْشَكُمْ بِسُلْطَانِ اللَّهِ وَ عِزِّهِ وَ مُلْكِهِ وَ عَظَمَتِهِ وَ عَزِيمَتِهِ الَّتِي عَزَمَ بِهَا أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع عَلَى جِنِّ وَادِي الصَّبْرَةِ لَمَّا طَغَوْا وَ بَغَوْا وَ تَمَرَّدُوا
There is no way for you all, nor any authority! Your authority has been Subdued by the Authority of Allah-azwj, and your power by the Power of Allah-azwj, and your plots and your tricks, and your schemes, and your infantry and your cavalry, and your authority, and your power has been Subdued by the Authority of Allah-azwj, and His-azwj Mighty, and His-azwj Kingdom, and His-azwj Magnificence, and His-azwj Determination which Amir Al-Momineen-asws had determined with upon the Jinn of the valley of Al-Sabra when they had been arrogant and rebelled and were tyrannical!
فَأَذْعَنُوا لَهُ صَاغِرِينَ مِنْ بَعْدِ قُوَّتِهِمْ فَلَا سُلْطَانَ لَكُمْ وَ لَا سَبِيلَ وَ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْعَظِيمِ.
Thus, they submitted to him-asws belittled from after their strength. So there is neither any authority for you, nor way, nor might nor strength except with Allah-azwj, the Exalted, the Magnificent!’’[172]
وَ مِنْهُ قَالَ: حَجَجْنَا سَنَةً فَلَمَّا صِرْنَا فِي خَرَابَاتِ الْمَدِينَةِ بَيْنَ الْحِيطَانِ افْتَقَدْنَا رَفِيقاً لَنَا مِنْ إِخْوَانِنَا فَطَلَبْنَاهُ فَلَمْ نَجِدْهُ فَقَالَ لَنَا النَّاسُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ إِنَّ صَاحِبَكُمْ اخْتَطَفَتْهُ الْجِنُّ
And from him who said, ‘We performed Hajj in a year. When we came to be in ruins of Al-Medina, between the walls, we missed a friend of ours, from our brethren. We could not find him. The people said to us at Al-Medina, ‘Your companion, the Jinn have abducted him!’
فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع وَ أَخْبَرْتُهُ بِحَالِهِ وَ بِقَوْلِ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ فَقَالَ لِي اخْرُجْ إِلَى الْمَكَانِ الَّذِي اخْتُطِفَ أَوْ قَالَ افْتُقِدَ فَقُلْ بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِكَ يَا صَالِحَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ إِنَّ جَعْفَرَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ يَقُولُ لَكَ أَ هَكَذَا عَاهَدَتْ وَ عَاقَدَتِ الْجِنُّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ اطْلُبْ فُلَاناً حَتَّى تُؤَدِّيَهُ إِلَى رُفَقَائِهِ
I entered to see Abu Abdullah-asws and informed him-asws of his state, and (what) the people of Al-Medina had said. He-asws said to me: ‘Go out to the place which he has abducted’, or said: ‘Missed’ – and say at the top of your voice, ‘O Salih Bin Ali! Ja’far-asws Bin Muhammad-asws says to you, is it like this the Jinn had covenanted and agreed with Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws? Search for so and so until you deliver him to his friends!’
ثُمَّ قُلْ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْجِنِّ عَزَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِمَا عَزَمَ عَلَيْكُمْ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ لَمَّا خَلَّيْتُمْ عَنْ صَاحِبِي وَ أَرْشَدْتُمُوهُ إِلَى الطَّرِيقِ
Then say, ‘O community of the Jinn! I have determined upon you with what Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws had determined upon you all! Release my companion and guide him to the road!’
قَالَ فَفَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَلَمْ أَلْبَثْ إِذَا بِصَاحِبِي قَدْ خَرَجَ عَلَيَّ مِنْ بَعْضِ الْخَرَابَاتِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ شَخْصاً تَرَاءَى لِي مَا رَأَيْتُ صُورَةً إِلَّا وَ هُوَ أَحْسَنُ مِنْهَا فَقَالَ يَا فَتَى أَظُنُّكَ تَتَوَلَّى آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ
He (the narrator) said, ‘I did that. It was not long before there was my companion emerging to me from one of the ruins. He said, ‘A person appeared to me. I have not seen any face except and his was more excellent than it! He said, ‘O youth! I think you befriend the Progeny‑asws of Muhammad-saww!’
فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ
I said, ‘Yes’.
فَقَالَ إِنَّ هَاهُنَا رجل [رَجُلًا] مِنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ هَلْ لَكَ أَنْ تُؤْجَرَ وَ تُسَلِّمَ عَلَيْهِ
He said, ‘Over here there is a man from the Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww. Is it okay for you if you were to come and greet unto him?’
فَقُلْتُ بَلَى
I said, ‘Yes’.
فَأَدْخَلَنِي بَيْنَ هَذِهِ الْحِيطَانِ وَ هُوَ يَمْشِي أَمَامِي فَلَمَّا أَنْ سَارَ غَيْرَ بَعِيدٍ نَظَرْتُ فَلَمْ أَرَ شَيْئاً وَ غُشِيَ عَلَيَّ فَبَقِيتُ مَغْشِيّاً عَلَيَّ لَا أَدْرِي أَيْنَ أَنَا مِنْ أَرْضِ اللَّهِ حَتَّى كَانَ الْآنَ فَإِذَا قَدْ أَتَانِي آتٍ وَ حَمَلَنِي حَتَّى أَخْرَجَنِي إِلَى الطَّرِيقِ
He made me enter into these walls and he was walking in front of me. When he had not walked far, I looked, but could not see anything and there was unconsciousness upon me. The unconsciousness remained upon me. I did not know where I was from the earth of Allah-azwj, until now! Then a comer came to me and carried me until he brought me out to the road!’
فَأَخْبَرْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ ذَلِكَ الْغُوَّالُ أَوِ الْغُولُ نَوْعٌ مِنَ الْجِنِّ يَغْتَالُ الْإِنْسَانَ فَإِذَا رَأَيْتَ الشَّخْصَ الْوَاحِدَ فَلَا تَسْتَرْشِدْهُ وَ إِنْ أَرْشَدَكُمْ فَخَالِفُوهُ وَ إِذَا رَأَيْتَهُ فِي خَرَابٍ وَ قَدْ خَرَجَ عَلَيْكَ أَوْ فِي فَلَاةٍ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ فَأَذِّنْ فِي وَجْهِهِ وَ ارْفَعْ صَوْتَكَ وَ قُلْ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ الَّذِي جُعِلَ فِي السَّمَاءِ نُجُوماً رُجُوماً لِلشَّيَاطِينِ
I informed Abu Abdullah-asws with that. He-asws said: ‘That is the ghoul or the ghouls, a type of Jinn, abducting the humans. Whenever you see the one person, do not seek his guidance, and if he were to guide you, oppose him, and when you see him in the ruins and he is emerging to you, or in a wilderness of the earth, then proclaim Azaan in his face and raise your voice and say, ‘Glory be to Allah-azwj Who Make stars in the sky as pellets for the Satans-la!
عَزَمْتُ عَلَيْكَ يَا خَبِيثُ بِعَزِيمَةِ اللَّهِ الَّتِي عَزَمَ بِهَا أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ص وَ رَمَيْتُ بِسَهْمِ اللَّهِ الْمُصِيبِ الَّذِي لَا يُخْطِئُ وَ جَعَلْتُ سَمْعَ اللَّهِ عَلَى سَمْعِكَ وَ بَصَرِكَ وَ ذَلَّلْتُكَ بِعِزَّةِ اللَّهِ وَ قَهَرْتُ سُلْطَانَكَ بِسُلْطَانِ اللَّهِ
I have determined upon you, O wicked, by the Determination of Allah-azwj which was determined by Amir Al-Momineen Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, and I have shot with an arrow of Allah-azwj, the accurate which does not miss, and I have made the Hearing of Allah-azwj over your hearing and your sight, and have humbled you by the Might of Allah-azwj, and subdued your authority by the Authority of Allah-azwj!
يَا خَبِيثُ لَا سَبِيلَ لَكَ عَلَيَّ فَإِنَّكَ تَقْهَرُهُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ وَ تَصْرِفُهُ عَنْكَ
O wicked! There is no way for you upon me, for you will be subdued, if Allah-azwj so Desires!’, and turn him away from you.
فَإِذَا ضَلَلْتَ الطَّرِيقَ فَأَذِّنْ بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِكَ وَ قُلْ يَا سَيَّارَةَ اللَّهِ دُلُّونَا عَلَى الطَّرِيقِ يَرْحَمْكُمُ اللَّهُ أَرْشِدُونَا يُرْشِدْكُمُ اللَّهُ
If you lose the way, then proclaim Azaan at the top of your voice and say, ‘O travellers of Allah‑azwj! Point us to the road! May Allah-azwj Mercy you all! Guide us aright, may Allah-azwj Guide you aright!’
فَإِنْ أَصَبْتَ وَ إِلَّا فَنَادِ يَا عُتَاةَ الْجِنِّ وَ يَا مَرَدَةَ الشَّيَاطِينِ أَرْشِدُونِي وَ دُلُّونِي عَلَى الطَّرِيقِ وَ إِلَّا أَسْرَعْتُ لَكُمْ بِسَهْمِ اللَّهِ الْمُصِيبِ إِيَّاكُمْ عَزِيمَةِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ يَا مَرَدَةَ الشَّيَاطِينِ إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَنْ تَنْفُذُوا مِنْ أَقْطارِ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ فَانْفُذُوا لا تَنْفُذُونَ إِلَّا بِسُلْطانٍ مُبِينٍ
Either you find the way, or else call out, ‘O obstinate Jinn, and O renegade Satans-la! Guide me aright and point me upon the road or else I shall be quick to you with the accurate arrow of Allah-azwj! Beware of the determination of Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws, O renegade Satans-la! If you are able to pass beyond the diameter of the skies and the earth, then pass. You will not be passing through except with -clear – authorisation [55:33]!
اللَّهُ غَالِبُكُمْ بِجُنْدِهِ الْغَالِبِ وَ قَاهِرُكُمْ بِسُلْطَانِهِ الْقَاهِرِ وَ مُذَلِّلُكُمْ بِعِزَّةِ الْمَتِينِ فَإِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ حَسْبِيَ اللَّهُ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا هُوَ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَ هُوَ رَبُّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ
Allah-azwj will Overcome you all with His-azwj prevailing armies, and Subdue you with His-azwj Forceful Authority, and Humble you by His-azwj Invincible Might! But if they turn back, say: ‘Allah is Sufficient for me, there is no God but He; upon Him do I rely, and He is Lord of the Magnificent Throne [9:129]!’
وَ ارْفَعْ صَوْتَكَ بِالْأَذَانِ تُرْشَدْ وَ تُصِبِ الطَّرِيقَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ.
And raise your voice with the Azaan, you will be rightly guided and find the road, if Allah-azwj so Desires’’.[173]
باب 105 الأدعية لقضاء الحوائج و فيه أدعية الإلحاح أيضا و ما يناسب ذلك من الأدعية
CHAPTER 105 – THE SUPPLICATIONS FOR FULFILMENT OF THE NEEDS, AND IN IT ARE INSISTENT SUPPLICATIONS AS WELL, AND WHAT IS RELATED TO THAT FROM THE SUPPLICATIONS
1- أَقُولُ قَدْ مَرَّ فِي خَبَرِ الْأَعْرَابِيِّ وَ النَّاقَةِ أَنَّ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَأَى الْأَعْرَابِيَّ مُتَعَلِّقاً بِأَسْتَارِ الْكَعْبَةِ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ يَا صَاحِبَ الْبَيْتِ الْبَيْتُ بَيْتُكَ وَ الضَّيْفُ ضَيْفُكَ وَ لِكُلِّ ضَيْفٍ مِنْ ضيفه [مُضِيفِهِ] قِرًى فَاجْعَلْ قِرَايَ مِنْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ الْمَغْفِرَةَ
I am saying, ‘It has passed in a Hadeeth of the Bedouin and the she-camel that Amir Al-Momineen-asws saw the Bedouin hanging on to curtains of the Kabah and he was saying, ‘O Owner of the House! The House is Your-azwj House, and the guest is Your-azwj guest, and for every guest there is provision from his house, so Make my provision from You-azwj tonight, as being the Forgiveness!’
فَقَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع لِأَصْحَابِهِ أَ مَا تَسْمَعُونَ كَلَامَ الْأَعْرَابِيِّ
Amir Al-Momineen-asws said to his-asws companions: ‘Are you not listening to the speech of the Bedouin?’
قَالُوا نَعَمْ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ أَكْرَمُ مِنْ أَنْ يَرُدَّ ضَيْفَهُ
They said, ‘Yes!’
قَالَ فَلَمَّا كَانَ اللَّيْلَةُ الثَّانِيَةُ وَجَدَهُ مُتَعَلِّقاً بِذَلِكَ الرُّكْنِ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ يَا عَزِيزاً فِي عِزَّتِكَ فَلَا أَعَزَّ مِنْكَ فِي عِزِّكَ أَعِزَّنِي بِعِزِّ عِزِّكَ فِي عِزٍّ لَا يَعْلَمُ أَحَدٌ كَيْفَ هُوَ
He (the narrator) said, ‘When it was the second night, he-asws found him hanging on with that corner, and he was saying, ‘O Mighty in Your-azwj Might! There is no one mightier than You-azwj in Your-azwj Might! Empower me with the Might of Your-azwj Empowerment in might no one knows how it is!
أَتَوَجَّهُ إِلَيْكَ وَ أَتَوَسَّلُ إِلَيْكَ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَلَيْكَ أَعْطِنِي مَا لَا يُعْطِينِي أَحَدٌ غَيْرُكَ وَ اصْرِفْ عَنِّي مَا لَا يَصْرِفُهُ أَحَدٌ غَيْرُكَ
I divert to You-azwj and seek mediation to You-azwj by the right of Muhammad-saww and Progeny‑asws of Muhammad-saww upon You-azwj! Give me what no one can give me apart from You-azwj, and Turn away from me what no one can turn it away apart from You-azwj!’
قَالَ فَقَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع لِأَصْحَابِهِ هَذَا وَ اللَّهِ الِاسْمُ الْأَكْبَرُ بِالسُّرْيَانِيَّةِ أَخْبَرَنِي بِهِ حَبِيبِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص سَأَلَهُ الْجَنَّةَ فَأَعْطَاهُ وَ سَأَلَهُ صَرْفَ النَّارِ وَ قَدْ صَرَفَهَا عَنْهُ
He (the narrator) said, ‘Amir Al-Momineen-asws said to his-asws companions: ‘By Allah-azwj, this is the Greatest Name in Assyrian! My-asws beloved Rasool-Allah-saww had informed me-asws with it. He asked for the Paradise, so He-azwj Gave him, and he asked Him-azwj to Turn away the Hellfire, and it has been Turned away from him!’
قَالَ فَلَمَّا كَانَ اللَّيْلَةُ الثَّالِثَةُ وَجَدَهُ وَ هُوَ مُتَعَلِّقٌ بِذَلِكَ الرُّكْنِ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ يَا مَنْ لَا يَحْوِيهِ مَكَانٌ وَ لَا يَخْلُو مِنْهُ مَكَانٌ بِلَا كَيْفِيَّةٍ
He (the narrator) said, ‘When it was the third night, he-asws found him, and he was hanging with that corner, and he was saying, ‘O One neither does a place contain Him-azwj nor is any place vacant from Him-azwj, without qualitative state’.
كَانَ ارْزُقِ الْأَعْرَابِيَّ أَرْبَعَةَ أَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ.
The Bedouin had been Graced four thousand Dirhams’’.[174]
2- ب، قرب الإسناد هَارُونُ عَنِ ابْنِ صَدَقَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ لِلصَّادِقِ ع قَائِلٌ عَلِّمْنِي دُعَاءً
(The book) ‘Qurb Al Isnaad’ – Haroun, from Ibn Sadawa who said,
‘He said to Al-Sadiq-asws, ‘A speaker has taught me a supplication!’
فَقَالَ لَهُ أَيْنَ أَنْتَ مِنْ دُعَاءِ الْإِلْحَاحِ
He-asws said: ‘Where are you from the insistent supplication (Dua Al Ilhah)?’
فَقَالَ لَهُ الطَّالِبُ وَ مَا دُعَاءُ الْإِلْحَاحِ
The seeker said to him-asws, ‘And what is the insistent supplication?’
فَقَالَ لَهُ تَقُولُ اللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ وَ مَا فِيهِنَّ وَ رَبَّ الْأَرَضِينَ السَّبْعِ وَ مَا فِيهِنَّ وَ رَبَّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ وَ رَبَّ مُحَمَّدٍ خَاتَمِ النَّبِيِّينَ
He-asws said to him: ‘You should say, ‘O Allah-azwj! Lord-azwj of the seven skies and whatever is within them, and Lord-azwj of the seven earths and whatever is within them, and Lord-azwj of the Magnificent Throne, and Lord-azwj of Muhammad-saww, Seal of the Prophets-as!
أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِي بِهِ تَقُومُ السَّمَاءُ وَ بِهِ تَقُومُ الْأَرْضُ وَ بِهِ تُفَرِّقُ الْجَمْعَ وَ بِهِ تَجْمَعُ الْمُتَفَرِّقَ وَ بِهِ تَرْزُقُ الْأَحْيَاءَ وَ بِهِ أَحْصَيْتَ عَدَدَ الثَّرَى وَ الرَّمْلِ وَ وَرَقِ الْأَشْجَارِ وَ قَطْرِ الْبُحُورِ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name by which You-azwj Established the sky, and by it You-azwj Established the earth, and by it You-azwj Separate the crowds, and by it You-azwj Gather the separated, and by it You-azwj Separate the loved ones, and by it You-azwj Enumerate the number of grains of sand of the soil and the desert, and leaves of the trees, and the drops of rain, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww!’
وَ تَسْأَلُ حَاجَتَكَ وَ أَلِحَّ فِي الطَّلَبِ فَإِنَّهُ يُحِبُّ إِلْحَاحَ الْمُلِحِّينَ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ.
And ask your need and be insistent in the requesting for He-azwj Answers the insistence by the insisting ones from His-azwj Momineen servants’’.[175]
قَالَ وَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع وَ هَذَا مِنْ دُعَاءِ الْإِلْحَاحِ وَ هَذَا مِنْهُ يَا مَنْ لَا يَحْجُبُهُ سَمَاءٌ عَنْ سَمَاءٍ وَ لَا أَرْضٌ عَنْ أَرْضٍ وَ لَا جَنْبٌ عَنْ قَلْبٍ وَ لَا سِتْرٌ عَنْ كِنٍّ وَ لَا جَبَلٌ عَمَّا فِي أَصْلِهِ وَ لَا بَحْرٌ عَمَّا فِي قَعْرِهِ
He said, ‘And Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘And this is from ‘Dua Al Ilhah’ (The Insistent supplication), and this is from it: ‘O One Whom a sky does not veil Him-azwj from a sky, nor an earth from an earth, nor a side from a heart, nor a curtain from a corner, nor a mountain from what is in its base, nor a sea from its bottom!
يَا مَنْ لَا تَشْتَبِهُ عَلَيْهِ الْأَصْوَاتُ وَ لَا تَغْلِبُهُ كَثْرَةُ الْحَاجَاتِ وَ لَا يُبْرِمُهُ إِلْحَاحُ الْمُلِحِّينَ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ثُمَّ سَلْ حَاجَتَكَ.
O One the voices are not confusing to Him-azwj, nor do the frequency of needs overwhelm Him‑azwj, nor does insistent of the insisting ones troubles Him-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww!’ Then ask your need’’.[176]
3- ل، الخصال هَانِي بْنُ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ هَانِي عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ عُبْدُوسِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ أَسَدٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ خُصَيْفِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: أَقْبَلَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ع إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فَسَأَلَهُ شَيْئاً فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ يَا عَلِيُّ وَ الَّذِي بَعَثَنِي بِالْحَقِّ نَبِيّاً مَا عِنْدِي قَلِيلٌ وَ لَا كَثِيرٌ وَ لَكِنِّي أُعَلِّمُكَ شَيْئاً أَتَانِي بِهِ جَبْرَئِيلُ خَلِيلِي
(The book) ‘Al Khisaal – Hany Bin Mahmoud Bin Hany, from his father, from Muhammad Bin Muhammad Bin Al-Hassan, from Ubdous Bin Muhammad Bin Mansour Bin Asad, from Ahmad Bin Abdullah, from Is’haq Bin Yahya, from Khuseyb Bin Abdul Rahman,from Saeed Bin Jubeyr, from Ibn Abbas who said,
Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws turned towards the Prophet-saww. He-asws asked him-saww for something. The Prophet-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! By the One Who Sent me-saww with the truth as a Prophet-saww! There is neither little nor more in my-saww possession, but I-saww shall teach you‑asws something my-saww friend Jibraeel-as had come to me-saww with.
فَقَالَ يَا مُحَمَّدُ هَذِهِ هَدِيَّةٌ لَكَ مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَكْرَمَكَ اللَّهُ بِهَا لَمْ يُعْطِهَا أَحَداً قَبْلَكَ مِنَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ وَ هِيَ تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ حَرْفاً لَا يَدْعُو بِهِنَّ مَلْهُوفٌ وَ لَا مَكْرُوبٌ وَ لَا مَحْزُونٌ وَ لَا مَغْمُومٌ وَ لَا عِنْدَ سَرَقٍ وَ لَا حَرَقٍ وَ لَا يَقُولُهُنَّ عَبْدٌ يَخَافُ سُلْطَاناً إِلَّا فَرَّجَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ
He-as said: ‘O Muhammad-saww! This is a gift for you-saww from the Presence of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic! Allah-azwj has Honoured you-saww with it. He-azwj had not Given it to anyone from the Prophets-saww before you-saww, and it is of nineteen phrases. It will neither be supplicated with by an anxious one, nor distressed, nor grief-stricken, nor sad, nor at the theft, nor burning, nor will a servant say it fearing a ruler, except Allah-azwj will Relieve from him!

Ali-asws Bin Abu Talib-asws said: ‘How should one supplicate with it, O Rasool-Allah-saww?’
قَالَ قُلْ
He-saww said: ‘Say,

You are the One to whom the blackness of the night and the light of the day prostrate as well as light of the day, and illumination of the moon, and rays of the sun, and the sound of water, and rustle of the trees!

As well in seeking the need, from Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘My-asws father-asws was such, whenever the need was painful with him-asws, he-asws did Sajdah from without any recitation nor any Ruk’u, then he-asws said: ‘O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’ – seven times, and no Momin will say it except Allah-azwj, Majestic is His-azwj Majesty Says: “Here I-azwj am the most Merciful of the merciful ones, ask your need!”’[187]

The Prophet-saww said to Ali-asws: ‘O Ali-asws! Whenever you-asws go out from your-asws house intending a need, read Ayat Al Kursy, for your-asws need will be Fulfilled, if Allah-azwj so Desires!’’[188]

From the book ‘Uyoun Al Akhbar’ –
‘From Al-Reza-asws, from his-asws forefathers-asws, from Ali-asws, he-asws said: ‘He-asws said: ‘Whenever one of you wants the need, let him exclaim Takbeer in seeking it on the day of Thursday, and let him read when he goes out from his house, end of Surah Aal-e-Imran-as, and Ayat Al Kursi, and Surah Al Qadr, and Surah Al Fatiha, for in these is fulfilment of needs of the world and the Hereafter’’.[190]

Regarding the important needs, from Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘When the man is hit by distress or adversity, let him uncover from his knees and his forearms, and let him adhere these with the ground and let him adhere his forehead with the ground, then supplicate’’.[191]

Another – Ali-asws said to his-asws son-asws: ‘Whenever a mighty matter befalls with you-asws, either regarding religion or world, perform Wud’u and raise your-asws hands and say: ‘O Allah‑azwj! O Allah-azwj!’, seven times, for it shall be Answered for you!’’[192]

Another – And from Abu Al-Hassan-asws the 1st: ‘There is no one who is crushed by a matter saddening him, or distress stressing him, he should raise his head towards the sky and say three times: ‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent, the Merciful!’, except Allah-azwj will Relieve his distress, and his sadness will be gone, if Allah-azwj the Exalted so Desires!’’[193]

‘Whenever you want a need, say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name, the most Exalted, the Greatest, the Mightiest, the most Majestic, and most Magnificent, the most Benevolent, to Do such and such with me’, is will not be rejected’’.[194]

(The book) ‘Kashf Al Ghumma’, the book ‘Al Dalaail’ of Al Himeyri –
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘When Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws had been killed, Muhammad Bin Al-Hanafiya came to Ali-asws Bin Al Husayn-asws. He said to him-asws, ‘O son-asws of my brother‑asws! I am your-asws uncle and a match of your-asws father-asws, and older than you-asws. Thus, I am more rightful with the Imamate and the successorship, so hand over to me the weapon of Rasool-Allah-saww!’
فَقَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ يَا عَمِّ اتَّقِ اللَّهَ وَ لَا تَدَّعِ مَا لَيْسَ لَكَ فَإِنِّي أَخَافُ عَلَيْكَ نَقْصَ الْعُمُرِ وَ شَتَاتَ الْأَمْرِ
Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws said: ‘O uncle! Fear Allah-azwj and do not claim what isn’t for you, for I-asws fear upon you of reduction of the lifespan and scattering of the matters!’
فَقَالَ لَهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ أَنَا أَحَقُّ بِهَذَا الْأَمْرِ مِنْكَ
Muhammad Bin Al-Hanafiya said to him-asws, ‘I am more rightful with this command than you‑asws are!’
فَقَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ يَا عَمِّ فَهَلْ لَكَ إِلَى حَاكِمٍ نَحْتَكِمُ إِلَيْهِ
Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws said: ‘O Uncle! Is it okay for you to go to a judge we can take the judgment to him?’
فَقَالَ وَ مَنْ هُوَ
He said, ‘And who is he?’
قَالَ الْحَجَرُ الْأَسْوَدُ
He-asws said: ‘The Black Stone (Al-Hajr Al-Aswad)!’
قَالَ فَتَحَاكَمَا إِلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا وَقَفَا عِنْدَهُ قَالَ لَهُ يَا عَمِّ تَكَلَّمْ فَأَنْتَ الْمُطَالِبُ
He (Abu Ja’far-asws) said: ‘They took the case to it. When they paused by it, he-asws said to him: ‘O Uncle! Speak, for you are the claimant!’
قَالَ فَتَكَلَّمَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ
He said, ‘Muhammad Bin Al-Hanafiya spoke, but it did not answer him.
قَالَ فَتَقَدَّمَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ فَوَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ الْبَهَاءِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ الْعَظَمَةِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ الْقُوَّةِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ الْجَلَالِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ السُّلْطَانِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ السَّرَائِرِ
He (Abu Ja’far-asws) said: ‘Ali-asws Bin Al Husayn-asws went forward and placed his-asws hand upon it and said: ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by Your Name Inscribed in the pavilions of Splendour! And I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name inscribed in the pavilions of Magnificence! And I ask You‑azwj by Your-azwj Name inscribed in the pavilions of Strength! And I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name in the pavilions of Majesty! And I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name inscribed in the pavilions of Authority!

Lord-azwj of the eight Angels, and Lord-azwj Jibraeel-as, and Mikaeel-as, and Israfeel-as, and Lord-azwj of Muhammad-saww, Seal of the Prophets-as! Make this stone to speak in eloquent Arabic tongue (language) informing for whom is the Imamate and the successorship after Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws!’
قَالَ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ عَلَى الْحَجَرِ فَقَالَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِالَّذِي جَعَلَ فِيكَ مَوَاثِيقَ الْعِبَادِ وَ الشَّهَادَةَ لِمَنْ وَافَاكَ إِلَّا أَخْبَرْتَ لِمَنِ الْإِمَامَةُ وَ الْوَصِيَّةُ بَعْدَ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ
He (Abu Ja’far-asws) said: ‘Then Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws turned towards the Stone. He-asws said: ‘I ask You-azwj by the One Who Make Covenant of the servant within you, and the testimony for the ones arriving to you, except inform for whom is the Imamate and the successorship after Al-Husayn-asws Bin Ali-asws!’
فَتَزَعْزَعَ الْحَجَرُ حَتَّى كَادَ أَنْ يَزُولَ مِنْ مَوْضِعِهِ وَ تَكَلَّمَ بِلِسَانٍ عَرَبِيٍّ فَصِيحٍ يَقُولُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ سَلِّمْ سَلِّمْ إِنَّ الْإِمَامَةَ وَ الْوَصِيَّةَ بَعْدَ الْحُسَيْنِ لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ
The Stone shook until it almost moved from its place, and spoke with eloquent Arabic tongue saying: ‘O Muhammad! Submit that the Imamate and the successorship after Al-Husayn-asws is for Ali-asws Bin Al-Husayn-asws!’
قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع فَرَجَعَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ابْنُ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ بِأَبِي عَلِيٌ.
Abu Ja’far-asws said: ‘Muhammad son of Ali-asws son of Al-Hanafiya returned and he was saying, ‘By my father Ali-asws!’’[195]
13- كشف، كشف الغمة مِنْ كِتَابِ دَلَائِلِ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ عَنْ مَوْلًى لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ع حِينَ قَدِمَ بِهِ الْبَصْرَةَ فَلَمَّا أَنْ كَانَ قُرْبَ الْمَدَائِنِ رَكِبْنَا فِي أَمْوَاجٍ كَثِيرَةٍ وَ خَلْفَنَا سَفِينَةٌ فِيهَا امْرَأَةٌ تُزَفُّ إِلَى زَوْجِهَا وَ كَانَتْ لَهُمْ جَلَبَةٌ فَقَالَ مَا هَذِهِ الْجَلَبَةُ
(The book) ‘Kashf Al Ghumma’ – from ‘Kitab Al Dalaail’ of Al Himeyri,
‘From a slave of Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘We were with Abu Al-Hassan-asws we arrived with him-asws at Al-Basra. When he-asws was nearby Al-Madainy, we sailed in a lot of waves. We left in the ship wherein was a woman being escorted to her husband, and there were different voices (languages) for them. He-asws said: ‘What is this differing?’
قُلْنَا عَرُوسٌ
We said, ‘A bride’.
فَمَا لَبِثْنَا أَنْ سَمِعْنَا صَيْحَةً فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا
We did not wait long before we heard a shriek. He-asws said: ‘What is this?’
فَقَالُوا ذَهَبَتِ الْعَرُوسُ لِتَغْتَرِفَ مَاءً فَوَقَعَ مِنْهَا سِوَارٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فَصَاحَتْ
We said, ‘The bride went to scoop water and bangle of gold fell from her, so she shouted’.
فَقَالَ احْبِسُوا وَ قُولُوا لِمَلَّاحِهِمْ تَحْبِسُ
He-asws said: ‘Withhold and tell their navigator to withhold!’
فَحَبَسْنَا وَ حَبَسَ مَلَّاحُهُمْ فَاتَّكَأَ عَلَى السَّفِينَةِ وَ هَمَسَ قَلِيلًا وَ قَالَ قُولُوا لِمَلَّاحِهِمْ يَتَّزِرْ بِفُوطَةٍ وَ يَنْزِلُ فَيَتَنَاوَلُ السِّوَارَ
We withheld and their navigator withheld. He-asws reclined upon the ship and whispered a little and said: ‘Tell their navigator to wrap in a towel and descend and take the bangle!’
فَنَظَرْنَا فَإِذَا السِّوَارُ عَلَى وَجْهِ الْأَرْضِ وَ إِذَا مَاءٌ قَلِيلٌ فَنَزَلَ الْمَلَّاحُ فَأَخَذَ السِّوَارَ فَقَالَ أَعْطِهَا وَ قُلْ لَهَا فَلْتَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ رَبَّهَا
We looked, and behold the bangle was upon surface of the ground and the water was little. The navigator descended and took the bangle. He-asws said: ‘Give it to her, and tell her to praise Allah-azwj, her Lord-azwj!’
ثُمَّ سِرْنَا فَقَالَ لَهُ أَخُوهُ إِسْحَاقُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ الدُّعَاءُ الَّذِي دَعَوْتَ بِهِ عَلِّمْنِيهِ
Then we travelled. His-asws brother Is’haq said to him-asws, ‘May I be sacrificed for you-asws! The supplication which you-asws supplicated with, teach it to us!’
قَالَ نَعَمْ وَ لَا تُعَلِّمْهُ مَنْ لَيْسَ لَهُ بِأَهْلٍ وَ لَا تُعَلِّمْهُ إِلَّا مَنْ كَانَ مِنْ شِيعَتِنَا
He-asws said: ‘Yes, but do not teach it to the one who isn’t rightful for it nor teach it except to the one was from our-asws Shias!’
ثُمَّ قَالَ اكْتُبْ
Then he-asws said: ‘Write!’
فَأَمْلَى عَلَيَّ إِنْشَاءً يَا سَابِقَ كُلِّ فَوْتٍ يَا سَامِعاً لِكُلِّ صَوْتٍ قَوِيٍّ أَوْ خَفِيٍّ يَا مُحْيِيَ النُّفُوسِ بَعْدَ الْمَوْتِ لَا تَغْشَاكَ الظُّلُمَاتُ الْحِنْدِسِيَّةُ وَ لَا تَشَابَهُ عَلَيْكَ اللُّغَاتُ الْمُخْتَلِفَةُ وَ لَا يَشْغَلُكَ شَيْءٌ عَنْ شَيْءٍ
He-asws dictated to me inspiring: ‘O Preceder to every lost! O Listener of every voice, whether strong or low! O Reviver of the souls after the death! The darkness(es) of the depths do not overwhelm You-azwj, nor are the different languages confusing to You-azwj, nor does a thing pre-occupy You-azwj from a thing!
يَا مَنْ لَا يَشْغَلُهُ دَعْوَةُ دَاعٍ دَعَاهُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ يَا مَنْ لَهُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ سَمْعٌ سَامِعٌ وَ بَصَرٌ نَافِذٌ يَا مَنْ لَا تُغَلِّطُهُ كَثْرَةُ الْمَسَائِلِ وَ لَا يُبْرِمُهُ إِلْحَاحُ الْمُلِحِّينَ يَا حَيُّ حِينَ لَا حَيَّ فِي دَيْمُومَةِ مُلْكِهِ وَ بَقَائِهِ
O One Whom a supplication by a supplicater does not pre-occupy Him-azwj by a supplicater from the sky! O One for Whom, with all things from His-azwj creatures, a Listening Ear and Implemented Sight! O One, frequency of the requests does not err Him-azwj, nor does the insistence of the insisting ones trouble Him-azwj! O Living when there was no living being in the Permanence of His-azwj Kingdom and His-azwj Remaining!
يَا مَنْ سَكَنَ الْعُلَى وَ احْتَجَبَ عَنْ خَلْقِهِ بِنُورِهِ يَا مَنْ أَشْرَقَتْ لِنُورِهِ دُجَى الظُّلَمِ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْوَاحِدِ الْأَحَدِ الْفَرْدِ الصَّمَدِ الَّذِي هُوَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَرْكَانِكَ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ ثُمَّ سَلْ حَاجَتَكَ.
O One Who is settled in the Exaltedness and is veiled from His-azwj creatures by His-azwj Noor! O One the darkness of the night shines to His-azwj Noor! I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name, the One, the First, the Individual, the Solid which is from entirety of Your-azwj elements!

The book ‘Al Ateeq’ of Al Garwy – It is reported by Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Abdullah Al Mansoury, from his uncle, from his father who said,
‘I said to our Chief Abu Al-Hassan Ali-asws Master of Al-Asker, ‘Teach me a supplication and specialise me with it!’

He-asws said: ‘Say, O Abu Musa, ‘O my Weapon without the number! O my hope and the reliance! O my Cave and the Support, and O One, O First! O One! He-azwj is Allah-azwj the One! I ask You-azwj by the right of the ones You-azwj Created from Your-azwj creatures and did not Make anyone the likes of them-asws among Your-azwj creatures, to Send Salawaat upon their‑asws group and Do such and such with me!’, for I-asws have already asked Allah-azwj the Glorious not to Disappoint the one who supplicates with!’’[199]

And Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘One who says, ‘O One Who Does whatever He-azwj so Desires, and does not Do what anyone else desires!’ – three times, it will be Answered for him, and it is the supplication which is not rejected.
وَ إِنَّ مِنْ أَوْجَهِ الدُّعَاءِ وَ أَبْلَغِهِ أَنْ يَقُولَ يَا اللَّهُ الَّذِي لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَيْءٌ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ وَ افْعَلْ بِي كَذَا وَ كَذَا
And from the most distinguished and far-reaching supplication is that he should say, ‘O Allah‑azwj Who, there isn’t anything like Him-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and People-asws of his-saww Household and Do such and such with me!’
وَ كَانَ أَبِي ع يَخْزُنُ هَذَا الدُّعَاءَ وَ يَخْبَأُهُ وَ لَا يُطْلِعُ عَلَيْهِ أَحَداً أَعُوذُ بِدِرْعِ اللَّهِ الْحَصِينَةِ الَّتِي لَا تُرَامُ وَ أَعُوذُ بِجَمْعِ اللَّهِ مِنْ كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ قُولُوا كَلِمَاتِ الْفَرَجِ.
And my-asws father-asws had treasured this supplication and hidden it and did not notify anyone upon it: ‘I-asws seek Refuge with the fortifying Armour of Allah-azwj which cannot be breached, and I seek Refuge with the Whole of Allah-azwj!, from such and such and say the phrases of relief’’.[203]
وَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِنَّ مِنْ أَلَحِّ الدُّعَاءِ أَنْ يَقُولَ الْعَبْدُ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ وَ إِنَّ مِنْ أَجْمَعِ الدُّعَاءِ أَنْ يَقُولَ الْعَبْدُ الِاسْتِغْفَارَ وَ سَيِّدُ كَلَامِ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَ الْآخِرِينَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ.
And Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘From the most insistent supplication is that the servant should say, ‘Whatever Allah-azwj Desires, happens!’, and from the most comprehensive supplications is that the servant should say the seeking of Forgiveness, and chief of the speech of the former ones and the latter ones is, ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj!’’
وَ قَدِمَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ مِنْ دُعَاءٍ لَا يُرَدُّ
And a man had proceeded to Rasool-Allah-saww. He said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Is there any supplication which does not get Rejected?’
قَالَ نَعَمْ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْأَعْلَى الْأَجَلِّ الْأَعْظَمِ رَدِّدْهَا ثُمَّ سَلْ حَاجَتَكَ.
He-saww said: ‘Yes, ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name the most Exalted, the most Majestic, the most Magnificent!’ Repeat it, then ask your need’’.[204]
وَ عَنِ الثُّمَالِيِّ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ ع عَلِّمْنِي دُعَاءً
And from Al-Sumali who said, ‘I said to Ali-asws Bin Al Husayn-asws, ‘Teach me a supplication!’
فَقَالَ يَا ثَابِتُ قُلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ الْمَنَّانُ بَدِيعُ السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ ذُو الْجَلالِ وَ الْإِكْرامِ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ بِي كَذَا وَ كَذَا
He-asws said: ‘O Sabit! Say, ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by, for You-azwj is the Praise! There is no God-azwj except You-azwj, the Benefactor, Initiator of the skies and the earth, with the Majesty and the Benevolence! Do such and such with me!’
ثُمَّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص هُوَ الَّذِي إِذَا دُعِيَ بِهِ أَجَابَ وَ إِذَا سُئِلَ بِهِ أَعْطَى.
Then he-asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘It is which, whenever it is supplicated with, is Answered, and whenever asked with, is Granted’’.[205]
وَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص قَالَ: دَفَعَ إِلَيَّ جَبْرَئِيلُ عَنِ اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى هَذِهِ الْمُنَاجَاةَ لِطَلَبِ الْحَاجَةِ
And from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘Jibraeel-as handed to me-saww this Munajaat from Allah‑azwj the Exalted to seek the need: –
اللَّهُمَّ جَدِيرٌ مَنْ أَمَرْتَهُ بِالدُّعَاءِ أَنْ يَدْعُوَكَ وَ مَنْ وَعَدْتَهُ بِالاسْتِجَابَةِ أَنْ يَرْجُوَكَ
‘O Allah-azwj! Worthy is the one whom You-azwj have Commanded him with the supplication that he should be supplicating to You-azwj, and one whom You-azwj have Promised him the Answer that he should be hoping to You-azwj!
وَ لِيَ اللَّهُمَّ حَاجَةٌ قَدْ عَجَزَتْ عَنْهَا حِيلَتِي وَ كَلَّتْ مِنْهَا طَاقَتِي وَ ضَعُفَتْ عَنْ مَرَامِهَا قُوَّتِي وَ سَوَّلَتْ لِي نَفْسِيَ الْأَمَّارَةُ بِالسُّوءِ وَ عَدُوِّي الْغَرُورُ الَّذِي أَنَا مِنْهُ وَ مِنْهَا مَبْلُوٌّ أَنْ أَرْغَبَ إِلَى ضَعِيفٍ مِثْلِي وَ مَنْ هُوَ فِي النُّكُولِ شَكْلِي
O Allah-azwj, and there is a need for me my means are frustrated from it, and my endurance is little from it, and my strength has weakened from dealing with it, and my soul, the instructor with the evil, has questioned me, and my enemy the arrogance which I am weary from it and fed up from it, is inclining me to desire to a weak one like myself and one who is in like my negligence!
حَتَّى تَدَارَكَتْنِي رَحْمَتُكَ وَ بَادَرَتْنِي بِالتَّوْفِيقِ رَأْفَتُكَ وَ رَدَدْتَ عَلَيَّ عَقْلِي بِتَطَوُّلِكَ وَ أَلْهَمْتَنِي رُشْدِي بِتَفَضُّلِكَ وَ أَجْلَيْتَ بِالرَّجَاء لَكَ قَلْبِي وَ أَزَلْتَ خُدْعَةَ عَدُوِّي عَنْ لُبِّي وَ صَحَّحْتَ فِي التَّأَمُّلِ فِكْرِي وَ شَرَحْتَ بِالرَّجَاءِ لِإِسْعَافِكَ صَدْرِي وَ صَوَّرْتَ لِيَ الْفَوْزَ بِبُلُوغِ مَا رَجَوْتُهُ وَ الْوُصُولِ إِلَى مَا أَمَّلْتُهُ فَوَقَفْتُ
Until Your-azwj Mercy comes across me, You-azwj Rushed me with the inclination by Your-azwj Kindness, and You-azwj Returned my intellect with Your-azwj Leniency, and Inspired me my rightful guidance with Your-azwj Grace, and You-azwj Hastened my heart with the hoping to You‑azwj, and Removed the deception of my enemy from my mind, and You-azwj Rectified in the pondering of my thinking, and Expanded my chest with the hoping for Your-azwj Assistance, and You-azwj Depicted to me the success of reaching what I am hoping for, and the arrival to what I am wishing for, so I stopped!
اللَّهُمَّ رَبِّ بَيْنَ ذَلِكَ سَائِلًا لَكَ مِمَّا دَعَا إِلَيْكَ وَاثِقاً بِكَ مُتَوَكِّلًا عَلَيْكَ فِي قَضَاءِ حَاجَتِي وَ تَحْقِيقِ أُمْنِيَّتِي وَ تَصْدِيقِ رَغْبَتِي فَأَعِذْنِي
O Allah-azwj! Lord-azwj, between that the beggar to You-azwj is from supplicating to You-azwj trusting with You-azwj, is relying upon You-azwj in fulfilment of my needs, and realising my wishes, and ratification of my desires!
اللَّهُمَّ رَبِّ بِكَرَمِكَ مِنَ الْخَيْبَةِ وَ الْقُنُوطِ وَ الْأنَاةِ وَ التَّثْبِيطِ بِهَنِيءِ إِجَابَتِكَ وَ سَابِغِ مَوْهِبَتِكَ إِنَّكَ وَلِيٌّ وَ بِالْمَنَائِحِ الْجَزِيلَةِ مَلِيٌّ وَ أَنْتَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ مُحِيطٌ.
O Allah-azwj! Lord-azwj, by Your-azwj Benevolence from the disappointment and the despondency, and the laziness and the procrastination, with the joy of Your-azwj Answer, and excellence of Your-azwj Gifts You-azwj are Guardian of, and with the plentiful Conferment(s) are Generous, and You-azwj are Able upon all things, and Dominant with all things!’’[206]
وَ مِنْ دُعَاءِ النَّبِيِّ ص يَا مَنْ أَظْهَرَ الْجَمِيلَ وَ سَتَرَ عَلَيَّ الْقَبِيحَ يَا مَنْ لَمْ يَهْتِكِ السِّتْرَ وَ لَمْ يُؤَاخِذْ بِالْجَرِيرَةِ يَا عَظِيمَ الْعَفْوِ يَا حَسَنَ التَّجَاوُزِ يَا وَاسِعَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ يَا بَاسِطَ الْيَدَيْنِ بِالرَّحْمَةِ يَا صَاحِبَ كُلِّ نَجْوَى وَ مُنْتَهَى كُلِّ شَكْوَى يَا مُقِيلَ الْعَثَرَاتِ يَا كَرِيمَ الصَّفْحِ يَا عَظِيمَ الْمَنِّ يَا مُبْتَدِئاً بِالنِّعَمِ قَبْلَ اسْتِحْقَاقِهَا يَا رَبَّاهْ يَا سَيِّدَاهْ يَا أَمَلَاهْ يَا غَايَةَ رَغْبَتَاهْ
And from supplication of the Prophet-saww: ‘O One Who Reveals the beautiful and Conceals the ugliness! O One Who does not Tear down the veil and does not Seize for the crimes! O Mighty of the Pardon! O Excellent of the Overlooking! O Capacious of the Forgiveness! O Extender of the hand with the Mercy! O Companion of every whisper and Ultimate (end point) of every complaint! O Uprooter of the stumbles! O Benevolent of the Pardoning! O Mighty of the Conferment! O Initiator with the bounty before it is deserved! O Lord-azwj! O Chief! O Hope! O Peak of desires!
أَسْأَلُكَ بِكَ يَا اللَّهُ أَنْ لَا تُشَوِّهَ خَلْقِي بِالنَّارِ وَ أَنْ تَقْضِيَ لِي حَوَائِجَ آخِرَتِي وَ دُنْيَايَ وَ تَفْعَلَ بِي كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ تَدْعُوَ بِمَا بَدَا لَكَ.
I ask You-azwj, by You-azwj O Allah-azwj, not to Grill my skin with the Hellfire, and to fulfil for me deeds of my Hereafter and my world, and Do such and such with me, and to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww!’ – and supplicate with whatever comes to you’’.[207]
وَ رُوِيَ أَنَّ فِي الْعَرْشِ تِمْثَالًا لِكُلِّ عَبْدٍ فَإِذَا اشْتَغَلَ الْعَبْدُ بِالْعِبَادَةِ رَأَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ تِمْثَالَهُ وَ إِذَا اشْتَغَلَ بِالْمَعْصِيَةِ أَمَرَ اللَّهُ بَعْضَ الْمَلَائِكَةِ حَتَّى يَحْجُبُوهُ بِأَجْنِحَتِهِمْ لِئَلَّا تَرَاهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ فَذَلِكَ مَعْنَى قَوْلِهِ ص يَا مَنْ أَظْهَرَ الْجَمِيلَ وَ سَتَرَ الْقَبِيحَ.
And it is reported that in the Throne there are resemblances of every servant. Whenever the servant pre-occupies with the worship, the Angels see his resemblance, and when he pre-occupies with the disobedience, Allah-azwj Commands one of the Angels until they veil him with their wings lest the Angels see him. So that is the meaning of his-saww words: ‘O One Who Reveals the beautiful and Conceals the ugliness’’.[208]
18- الْبَلَدُ الْأَمِينُ، نَقْلًا مِنْ كِتَابِ الِاحْتِسَابِ عَلَى الْأَلْبَابِ لِابْنِ طَاوُسٍ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ إِنَّ الصَّادِقَ ع كَانَ إِذَا أَلَحَّتْ بِهِ الْحَاجَةُ يَسْجُدُ مِنْ غَيْرِ صَلَاةٍ وَ لَا رُكُوعٍ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ سَبْعاً ثُمَّ يَسْأَلُ حَاجَتَهُ
(The book) ‘Al Balad Al Ameen’ – Copying from the book ‘Al Ihtisaab Ala Albaab’ of Ibn Tawoos, may Allah-azwj Mercy him,
‘Al-Sadiq-asws was such, whenever the need was persistent with him-asws, he-asws performed Sajdah from without a Salat nor Ruk’u, then said: ‘O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’ Then he-asws asked his-asws need.
ثُمَّ قَالَ ع مَا قَالَ أَحَدٌ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ سَبْعاً إِلَّا قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لَهُ هَا أَنَا أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَ سَلْ حَاجَتَكَ.
Then he-asws said: ‘No one will say, ‘O most Merciful of the merciful ones’, seven times, except Allah-azwj the Exalted Says to him: “Here I-azwj am, the most Merciful of the merciful ones! Ask, what is your need?”’[209]
وَ فِي كِتَابِ الْمَشِيخَةِ تَأْلِيفِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَقُلْ مُؤْمِنٌ يَا اللَّهُ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ مُتَتَابِعَاتٍ إِلَّا قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لَبَّيْكَ عَبْدِي سَلْ حَاجَتَكَ.
And in the book ‘Al Masheykha’ compiled by Al-Hassan Bin Mahboub,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws: ‘No Momin says, ‘O Allah-azwj’, ten times consecutively except Allah-azwj the Exalted Says: “Here I-azwj am, My-azwj servant! Ask your need!”’[210]
وَ فِي كِتَابِ الصَّلَاةِ لِمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع مَنْ قَالَ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ يَا رَبِّ يَا رَبِّ قِيلَ لَهُ لَبَّيْكَ سَلْ حَاجَتَكَ.
And in the book ‘Al Salat’ of Muhammad Bin Ali Bin Mahboub,
‘From Al-Sadiq-asws: ‘One who says ten times, ‘O Lord-azwj! O Lord-azwj!’ He-azwj Says to him: “Here I-azwj am! Ask your need!”’[211]
وَ فِي كِتَابِ الْكَافِي لِلْكُلَيْنِيِّ عَنِ الرِّضَا ع دَعْوَةُ الْعَبْدِ سِرّاً دَعْوَةً وَاحِدَةً تَعْدِلُ سَبْعِينَ دَعْوَةً عَلَانِيَةً.
And in the book ‘Al Kafi’ of Al Kulayni –
‘From Al-Reza-asws: ‘The supplication of a servant in private, one supplication equates to seventy supplication openly!’’[212]
وَ عَنِ الصَّادِقِ ع إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى لَا يَسْتَجِيبُ دُعَاءً بِظَهْرِ قَلْبٍ قَاسٍ.
And from Al-Sadiq-asws: ‘Allah-azwj the Exalted does not Answer supplication from an apparently hardened (cruel) heart!’’[213]
وَ فِي عُدَّةِ الدَّاعِي أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَقُلْ أَحَدٌ يَا رَبَّاهْ يَا رَبَّاهْ عَشْراً إِلَّا قِيلَ لَهُ لَبَّيْكَ سَلْ حَاجَتَكَ وَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ يَا سَيِّدَاهْ يَا سَيِّدَاهْ.
And in ‘Uddat Al-Daie’ –‘No one says, ‘O Lord-azwj! O Lord-azwj’, ten times except He-azwj Says to him: “Here I-azwj am! Ask your need!’ And similar to that is (saying of), ‘O Master! O Master!’’[214]
وَ رُوِيَ أَنَّهُ مَنْ قَالَ فِي سَجْدَتِهِ يَا رَبَّاهْ يَا سَيِّدَاهْ ثَلَاثاً أُجِيبَ بِمِثْلِ ذَلِكَ.
And it is reported that the one who says in his Sajdah, ‘O Lord-azwj! O Master!’ thrice, he is Answered similar to that (above)’’.[215]
وَ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ ع إِذَا كَانَ لَكَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى حَاجَةٌ فَقُلِ اللَّهُمَّ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلِيٍّ فَإِنَّ لَهُمَا عِنْدَكَ شَأْناً مِنَ الشَّأْنِ وَ قَدْراً مِنَ الْقَدْرِ أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ ذَلِكَ الشَّأْنِ وَ بِحَقِّ ذَلِكَ الْقَدْرِ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ بِي كَذَا وَ كَذَا
And from Sama’at,
‘From Abu Al-Hassan-asws: ‘When there was a need for you with Allah-azwj the Exalted, say, ‘O Allah-azwj! By the right of Muhammad-saww and Ali-asws! For them-asws is a glory from the glory in Your-azwj Presence, and a worth from the worth! I ask You-azwj by the right of that glory, and by the right of that worth, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Do such and such with me!’
فَإِنَّهُ إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْقِيَامَةِ لَمْ يَبْقَ مَلَكٌ مُقَرَّبٌ وَ لَا نَبِيٌّ مُرْسَلٌ وَ لَا عَبْدٌ مُؤْمِنٌ امْتَحَنَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى قَلْبَهُ لِلْإِيمَانِ إِلَّا وَ هُوَ مُحْتَاجٌ إِلَيْهِمَا فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ.
When it will be the Day of Qiyamah, there will neither remain any Angel of Proximity nor a Messenger Prophet-saww, nor a Momin servant whose heart Allah-azwj has Tested for the Eman, except and he will be need to them-asws both during that Day’’.[216]
وَ مِنْهُ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ع قَالَ: مَنْ قَرَأَ مِائَةَ آيَةٍ مِنْ أَيِّ آيِ الْقُرْآنِ شَاءَ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا اللَّهُ سَبْعاً فَلَوْ دَعَا عَلَى صَخْرَةٍ لَقَلَعَهَا اللَّهُ تَعَالَى.
And from him, from Ali-asws having said: ‘One who reads one hundred Verses from whichever Verses of the Quran he so desires to, then says, ‘O Allah-azwj’ seven times, even if he supplicates upon a rock, Allah -azwj the Exalted will Uproot it’’.[217]

(The book) ‘Mahj Al Dawaat’ –
‘A supplication Amir Al-Momineen-asws taught to his-asws son-asws Al-Hassan-asws: ‘When a person aims for a need, write that and hold it in your-asws right hand, and go wherever you-asws desire to: –
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ يَا اللَّهُ يَا وَاحِدُ يَا أَحَدُ يَا وَتْرُ يَا نُورُ يَا صَمَدُ يَا مَنْ مَلَأَتْ أَرْكَانُهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضَ أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تُسَخِّرَ لِي قَلْبَ فُلَانِ بْنِ فُلَانٍ كَمَا سَخَّرْتَ الْحَيَّةَ لِمُوسَى ع
‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj, O Allah-azwj, O One, O First, O Noor, O Solid, O One Whose elements fill up the skies and the earth! I ask You-azwj to Subdue to me the heart of so and so, son of so and so, just as You-azwj Subdued the snakes for Musa-as!
وَ أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تُسَخِّرَ لِي قَلْبَهُ كَمَا سَخَّرْتَ لِسُلَيْمَانَ جُنُودَهُ مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَ الْإِنْسِ وَ الطَّيْرِ فَهُمْ يُوزَعُونَ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تُلَيِّنَ لِي قَلْبَهُ كَمَا لَيَّنْتَ الْحَدِيدَ لِدَاوُدَ ع وَ أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تُذَلِّلَ قَلْبَهُ كَمَا ذَلَّلْتَ نُورَ الْقَمَرِ لِنُورِ الشَّمْسِ
And I ask You-azwj to Subdue for me his heart just as Your-azwj Subdued for Suleyman-as his-as armies from the Jinn and the humans and the bird so they were distributed! And I ask You-azwj to Soften his heart for me just as You-azwj Softened the iron for Dawood-as!

O Allah-azwj! He is Your-azwj servant, son of Your-azwj maid, and I am Your-azwj servant son of Your‑azwj Maid! Seize him by his feet and his forelocks and Subdue him to me until he fulfils this need of mine and what I want. You-azwj are Able upon all things, and he is upon what he is, in what he is.

(The book) ‘Mahj Al Dawaat’ – It is reported by Muhammad Bin Ahmad Bin Ubeydullah Al Mansoury, from an uncle of his father who said,
‘I said to our Chief Abu Al-Hassan Ali-asws, Master of Al-Asker, ‘Teach me a supplication and Specialise me with it!’
فَقَالَ قُلْ يَا بَا مُوسَى يَا عُدَّتِي دُونَ الْعُدَدِ وَ يَا رَجَائِي وَ الْمُعْتَمَدُ وَ يَا كَهْفِي وَ السَّنَدُ يَا وَاحِدُ يَا أَحَدُ يَا مَنْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ
He-asws said: ‘Say O Abu Musa, ‘O my Weapon without the number, and O my hope and the reliance, and O my Cave and the Support! O One, O First, O One He-azwj Allah-azwj is One!
أَسْأَلُكَ بِحَقِّ مَنْ خَلَقْتَهُ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ وَ لَمْ تَجْعَلْ فِي خَلْقِكَ مِثْلَهُمْ أَحَداً أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى جَمَاعَتِهِمْ وَ تَفْعَلَ بِي كَذَا وَ كَذَا فَإِنِّي قَدْ سَأَلْتُ اللَّهَ سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى أَنْ لَا يُخَيِّبَ مَنْ دَعَا بِهِ.
I ask You-azwj by the ones whom You-azwj Created from Your-azwj created and did not make anyone the likes of them-asws among Your-azwj creatures, to Send Salawaat upon their-asws group, and Do such and such with me!’, for I-asws have already asked Allah-azwj the Glorious and Exalted not to Disappoint the one who supplicates with it!’’[219]

(The book) ‘Mahj Al Dawaat’ – We are reporting by our chains to Sa’ad Bin Abdullah from his book, said, ‘It is narrated to me by Al-Hassan Bin Ali Bin Abdullah, from Al Husayn Bin Sayf, from Muhammad Bin Suleyman Al Basry, from Ibrahim Bin Al Mufazzal, from Aban Bin Taghlib,
‘From Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘That which Ali Bin Al Husayn-asws had supplicated with when tried by Muhammad Bin Al-Hanafiya at the Black Stone (Al-Hajr Al-Aswad) is that he-asws said:
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ الْمَجْدِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ الْبَهَاءِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ الْعَظَمَةِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ الْجَلَالِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ الْعِزَّةِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ الْقُدْرَةِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَكْتُوبِ فِي سُرَادِقِ السَّرَائِرِ السَّابِقِ الْفَائِقِ الْحَسَنِ النَّضِيرِ
‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name written in pavilions of the Glory, and I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name written in pavilions of Splendour, and I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name written in the pavilions of Magnificence, and I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name the written in pavilions of Majesty, and I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name written in the pavilions of Might, and I ask You‑azwj by Your-azwj Name written in the pavilions of Power, and I ask You-azwj by Your-azwj Name written in the pavilions of Secrets, the Preceding, the Superior, the Excellent, the Peer!

Lord-azwj of the eight Angels, and Lord-azwj of the Magnificent Throne, and by the Eye which does not Sleep, and by the Greatest Name, the Greatest, the Greatest, and by the Name, the most Magnificent, the most Magnificent, the most Magnificent, and Dominant with kingdoms of the skies and the earth, and by the Name by which You-azwj Shone the sun, and by it the moon illuminated, and by it the oceans swelled, and by it the mountains were set up!

And by the Name by which the Throne and the Chair were established, and by Your-azwj Names, the Holy, the Honourable, the Hidden, the Treasured in the knowledge of unseen matters with You-azwj! I ask You-azwj with all of that to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Do such and such with me!’
قَالَ أَبَانُ بْنُ تَغْلِبَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَا أَبَانُ إِيَّاكُمْ أَنْ تَدْعُوا بِهَذَا الدُّعَاءِ إِلَّا لِأَمْرٍ مُهِمٍّ مِنْ أَمْرِ الْآخِرَةِ وَ الدُّنْيَا فَإِنَّ الْعِبَادَ مَا يَدْرُونَ مَا هُوَ هُوَ مِنْ مَخْزُونِ عِلْمِ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَلَيْهِ وَ عَلَيْهِمُ السَّلَامُ.
Aban Bin Taghlib said, ‘Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘O Aban! Beware of supplicating with this supplication except for an important matter from matters of the Hereafter and the world, for the servant do not know what it is! It is from treasured knowledge of Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, may the greetings be upon them-asws!’’[220]
22- مهج، مهج الدعوات رَوَيْنَا بِإِسْنَادِنَا إِلَى سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مِنْ كِتَابِ فَضْلِ الدُّعَاءِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ إِلَى مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: الْكَلِمَاتُ الَّتِي تَلَقَّى بِهَا آدَمُ رَبَّهُ هِيَ اللَّهُمَّ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ وَ بِحَمْدِكَ عَمِلْتُ سُوءاً وَ ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ
(The book) ‘Mahj Al Dawaat’ – We are reporting by our chains to Sa’ad Bin Abdullah, from the book ‘Fazl Al Dua’ by his chain to Muhammad Bin Muslim,
‘From Abu Ja’far-asws having said: ‘The Phrases which were cast with to Adam-as by his-as Lord‑azwj, these were: ‘O Allah-azwj! There is no god except You-azwj! Glory be to You-azwj and with Your-azwj Praise! I have done evil and have been unjust to myself, so Forgive for me, for no one forgives the sins except You-azwj!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي عَمِلْتُ سُوءاً وَ ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي فَاغْفِرْ لِي إِنَّكَ خَيْرُ الْغافِرِينَ.
O Allah-azwj! I have done evil, and have been unjust to myself, so Forgive for me, You-azwj are best of the forgivers!’’[221]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ مَا عَلَّمَهُ اللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلَالُهُ لآِدَمَ ع لِدَفْعِ حَدِيثِ النَّفْسِ رَوَيْنَا ذَلِكَ بِإِسْنَادِنَا أَيْضاً إِلَى سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مِنْ كِتَابِ فَضْلِ الدُّعَاءِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ إِلَى هِشَامِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: شَكَا آدَمُ ع إِلَى اللَّهِ حَدِيثَ النَّفْسِ فَنَزَلَ عَلَيْهِ جَبْرَئِيلُ فَقَالَ قُلْ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ.
And from that is what Allah-azwj, Majestic is His-azwj Majesty, Taught Adam-as to repel self-discussion, we are reporting as well to Sa’ad Bin Abdullah from the book ‘Fazl Al-Dua’, by his chain to Hisham Bin Salim, from Abu Abdullah-asws having said: ‘Adam-as complained to Allah‑azwj of the self-discussion, so Jibraeel-as descended unto him-as. He-as said: ‘Say: ‘There is neither might nor strength except with Allah-azwj!’’[222]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ آدَمَ ع بِرِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى لَمَّا تَلَقَّى مِنْ رَبِّهِ كَلِمَاتٍ وَ لَعَلَّهُ ع دَعَا بِهَا وَ هُوَ يَا رَبَّاهْ يَا رَبَّاهْ يَا رَبَّاهْ لَا يَرُدُّ غَضَبَكَ إِلَّا حِلْمُكَ وَ لَا يُنْجِي مِنْ عُقُوبَتِكَ إِلَّا التَّضَرُّعُ إِلَيْكَ
And from that is supplication of Adam-as by another report: ‘When Adam-as received Phrases from his-as Lord-azwj, and perhaps he-as had supplicated with, and it is: ‘O Lord-azwj! O Lord-azwj! O Lord-azwj! Nothing can return Your-azwj Wrath except Your-azwj Forbearance, nor is there any saviour from Your-azwj Punishment except the beseeching to You-azwj!
حَاجَتِي الَّتِي إِنْ أَعْطَيْتَنِيهَا لَمْ يَضُرَّنِي مَا حَرَمْتَنِي وَ إِنْ حَرَمْتَنِيهَا لَمْ يَنْفَعْنِي مَا أَعْطَيْتَنِي
My needs are which, if You-azwj were to Grant these will not harm me what You-azwj Deprive me, and if You-azwj were to Deprive me, what You-azwj Grant me will not benefit me!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْفَوْزَ بِالْجَنَّةِ وَ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ النَّارِ يَا ذَا الْعَرْشِ الشَّامِخِ الْمُنِيفِ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَ الْإِكْرَامِ الْبَاذِخِ الْعَظِيمِ يَا ذَا الْمُلْكِ الْفَاخِرِ الْقَدِيمِ يَا إِلَهَ الْعَالَمِينَ يَا صَرِيخَ الْمُسْتَصْرِخِينَ وَ يَا مَنْزُولًا بِهِ كُلُّ حَاجَةٍ
O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj for the success with the Paradise, and I seek Refuge with You-azwj from the Hellfire! O with the Throne, the Lofty, the Noble! O with the Majesty and the Benevolence, the Lofty, the Mighty! O with the Kingdom, the Prideworthy, the Ancient! O God-azwj of the worlds! O Helpers of the ones crying out for help, and O One every need is descended with!
إِنْ كُنْتَ قَدْ رَضِيتَ عَنِّي فَازْدَدْ عَنِّي رِضًى وَ قَرِّبْنِي مِنْكَ زُلْفَى وَ إِلَّا تَكُنْ رَضِيتَ عَنِّي فَبِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِهِ وَ بِفَضْلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ لَمَّا رَضِيتَ عَنِّي إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ التَّوَّابُ
If You-azwj are Satisfied with me, then Increased the Satisfaction with me and Draw me closer to You-azwj, or else Be Satisfied with me! By the right of Muhammad-saww and his-saww Progeny‑asws and by Your-azwj Grace upon them-asws, please be Satisfied with me, surely You-azwj are the Clement!’
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع هَذَا الدُّعَاءُ الَّذِي تَلَقَّى آدَمُ مِنْ رَبِّهِ فَتابَ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ يَا آدَمُ سَأَلْتَنِي بِمُحَمَّدٍ وَ لَمْ تَرَهُ
Abu Abdullah-asws said: ‘This is the supplication which Adam-as had received from his-as Lord‑azwj, so He-azwj Turned to him-as. He-azwj Said: “O Adam-as! You-asws asked Me-azwj through Muhammad-saww and you-as have not seen him-saww!”
فَقَالَ رَأَيْتُ عَلَى عَرْشِكَ مَكْتُوباً لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ.
He-as said: ‘I-as have seen written upon Your-azwj Throne, ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj, Muhammad-saww is Rasool-saww of Allah-azwj!’’[223]
فَقَالَ رَاوِي الْحَدِيثِ فَوَ اللَّهِ مَا دَعَوْتُ بِهِنَّ فِي سِرٍّ وَ لَا عَلَانِيَةٍ فِي شِدَّةٍ وَ لَا رَخَاءٍ إِلَّا اسْتَجَابَ اللَّهُ لِي.
Note – The reporter of the Hadeeth said, ‘By Allah-azwj! I have not supplicated with these (phrases), neither in private nor open, neither in adversity nor ease, except Allah-azwj has Answered for me!’
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ نُوحٍ ع وَجَدْتُ فِي الْجُزْءِ الرَّابِعِ مِنْ كِتَابِ دَفْعِ الْهُمُومِ وَ الْأَحْزَانِ تَأْلِيفِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ دَاوُدَ النُعْمَانِيِّ قَالَ: وَ لَمَّا نَظَرَ نُوحٌ ع إِلَى هَوْلِ الْمَاءِ وَ الْمَوْجِ وَ الْأَمْوَاجِ دَخَلَهُ الرُّعْبُ فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ إِلَيْهِ قُلْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أَلْفَ مَرَّةً أُنْجِكَ
And from that is supplication of Noah-as I have found in the fourth volume of the book ‘Daf’a Al Humoum Wa Al Ahzaan’, compiled by Ahmad Bin Dawood Al Numani who said,
‘And when Noah-as looked are the horrors of the water and the turbulence and the waves, the dread entered into him-as. Allah-azwj, Majestic and Might Revealed to him-as: “Say: ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj’ a thousand times, I-azwj will Rescue you-as!”
قَالَ فَدَخَلَتِ الرِّيحُ فِي الشِّرَاعِ فَقَالَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ أَلْفاً أَلْفاً فَنَجَّاهُ اللَّهُ بِمَا قَالَهَا.
He (the narrator) said, ‘The wind entered into the sails, so he-as said: ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj, thousands and thousands!’ Allah-azwj Rescued him-as due to what he-as said’’.[224]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ إِدْرِيسَ ع وَجَدْنَاهُ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ الْبَصْرِيِّ قَالَ: لَمَّا بَعَثَ اللَّهُ إِدْرِيسَ ع إِلَى قَوْمِهِ عَلَّمَهُ هَذِهِ الْأَسْمَاءَ وَ أَوْحَى إِلَيْهِ أَنْ قُلْهُنَّ سِرّاً فِي نَفْسِكَ وَ لَا تُبْدِهِنَّ لِلْقَوْمِ فَيَدْعُونِي بِهِنَّ
And from that is supplication of Idrees-as we found from Al-Hassan Al Basry who said,
‘When Allah-azwj Sent Idrees-as to his-as people, Taught him-as these Names and Revealed unto him-as: ‘Say these in secrecy within yourself-as and do not manifest these to the people, so they would be supplicating to Me-azwj with these!’
قَالَ وَ بِهِنَّ دَعَا فَرَفَعَهُ اللَّهُ مَكَاناً عَلِيّاً ثُمَّ عَلَّمَهُنَّ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى مُوسَى ثُمَّ عَلَّمَهُنَّ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى مُحَمَّداً ص وَ بِهِنَّ دَعَا فِي غَزْوَةِ الْأَحْزَابِ
He (the narrator) said, ‘And he-as supplicated with these, so Allah-azwj Raised him-as to an exalted place. Then Allah-azwj Taught these to Musa-as! Then Allah-azwj the Exalted Taught these to Muhammad-saww and he-saww supplicated with these in the military expedition of Al-Ahzaab’.
قَالَ الْحَسَنُ وَ كُنْتُ مُسْتَخْفِياً مِنَ الْحَجَّاجِ فَأَدْعُو اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِهِنَّ فَحَبَسَهُ عَنِّي وَ لَقَدْ دَخَلُوا عَلَيَّ سِتَّ مَرَّاتٍ فَأَدْعُو بِهِنَّ فَأَخَذَ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ أَبْصَارَهُمْ عَنِّي
Al-Hassan said, ‘And I was fearing from Al-Hajjaj (the caliph), so I supplicated to Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic with these. He-azwj Withheld him from me, and they had entered to (seize) me six times, and I had supplicated with these, so Allah-azwj the Glorious Seized their sights from me.
فَادْعُ بِهِنَّ فِي الْتِمَاسِ الْمَغْفِرَةِ لِجَمِيعِ الذُّنُوبِ ثُمَّ اسْأَلْ حَاجَتَكَ مِنْ أَمْرِ آخِرَتِكَ وَ دُنْيَاكَ فَإِنَّكَ تُعْطَاهُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَإِنَّهُنَّ أَرْبَعُونَ أَسْمَاءَ عَدَدَ أَيَّامِ التَّوْبَةِ وَ هِيَ
Supplicate with these in seeking the Forgiveness for entirety of the sins, the ask your need from matters of your Hereafter and your world, for you will be Given, if Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic so Desires. These are forty Name, the number of the days of repentance, and these are: –
سُبْحَانَكَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ يَا رَبَّ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَ وَارِثَهُ يَا إِلَهَ الْآلِهَةِ الرَّفِيعَ جَلَالُهُ يَا اللَّهُ الْمَحْمُودُ فِي كُلِّ فِعَالِهِ يَا رَحْمَانَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَ رَاحِمَهُ يَا حَيُّ حِينَ لَا حَيَّ فِي دَيْمُومِيَّةِ مُلْكِهِ وَ بَقَائِهِ
‘Glory be to You-azwj! There is no god except You-azwj! O Lord-azwj of all things and Inheritor! O God-azwj of the gods, the Lofty is His-azwj Majesty! O Allah-azwj the Praise in all of His-azwj Deeds! O Beneficent to all things and its Mercier! O Living when there was no living being in the permanence of His-azwj Kingdom and His-azwj Remaining!
يَا قَيُّومُ فَلَا شَيْءَ يَفُوتُ عِلْمَهُ وَ لَا يَئُودُهُ يَا وَاحِدُ الْبَاقِي أَوَّلَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَ آخِرَهُ يَا دَائِمُ بِلَا فَنَاءٍ وَ لَا زَوَالٍ لِمُلْكِهِ يَا صَمَدُ مِنْ غَيْرِ شَبِيهٍ وَ لَا شَيْءَ كَمِثْلِهِ يَا بَارِئُ فَلَا شَيْءَ كُفْوُهُ وَ لَا إِمْكَانَ لِوَصْفِهِ
O Eternal, so nothing is missed out by His-azwj Knowledge nor does it overwhelm Him-azwj! O One, the Remaining! First of all, things and its Last! O Permanent without annihilation nor is there decline for His-azwj Kingdom! O Firm without any resemblance nor is there anything like Him-azwj! O Maker, so there is nothing a match for Him-azwj nor is there any possibility to describe Him-azwj!
يَا كَبِيرُ أَنْتَ الَّذِي لَا تَهْتَدِي الْقُلُوبُ لِوَصْفِ عَظَمَتِهِ يَا بَارِئَ النُّفُوسِ بِلَا مِثَالٍ خَلَا مِنْ غَيْرِهِ يَا زَاكِي الطَّاهِرُ مِنْ كُلِّ آفَةٍ بِقُدْسِهِ يَا كَافِي الْمُوسِعُ لِمَا خَلَقَ مِنْ عَطَايَا فَضْلِهِ
O Great! You-azwj are the One Who, the hearts are not guided to describe His-azwj Magnificence! O Maker of the souls without a prior example created from something else! O Purifier, O Pure from every affliction by His-azwj Holiness! O Sufficient! O Capacious of what He-azwj has Created from the awards of His-azwj Grace!
يَا نَقِيُّ مِنْ كُلِّ جَوْرٍ وَ لَمْ يَرْضَهُ وَ لَمْ يُخَالِطْهُ فِعَالُهُ يَا حَنَّانُ أَنْتَ الَّذِي وَسِعْتَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ رَحْمَةً وَ عِلْماً يَا مَنَّانُ ذَا الْإِحْسَانِ قَدْ عَمَّ الْخَلَائِقَ مَنُّهُ يَا دَيَّانَ الْعِبَادِ كُلٌّ يَقُومُ خَاضِعاً لِرَهْبَتِهِ وَ رَغْبَتِهِ يَا خَالِقَ مَنْ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرَضِينَ وَ كُلٌّ إِلَيْهِ مَعَادُهُ
O Negator from every tyranny and is not Satisfied with it and His-azwj Deeds do not mingle with it! O Affectionate Who is Capacious of all things in Mercy and Knowledge! O Bestower with the Favours having Generalised His-azwj creatures with His-azwj Conferment! O Judge of the servants, all stand humbly to His-azwj awe and desires! O Creator of the ones in the skies and the earth, and all are returning to Him-azwj!
يَا رَحِيمَ كُلِّ صَرِيخٍ وَ مَكْرُوبٍ وَ غِيَاثَهُ وَ مَعَاذَهُ يَا تَامُّ فَلَا تَصِفُ الْأَلْسِنَةُ كُنْهَ جَلَالِ مُلْكِهِ وَ عِزِّهِ يَا مُبْدِئَ الْبَدَائِعِ لَمْ يَبْغِ فِي إِنْشَائِهَا عَوْناً مِنْ خَلْقِهِ يَا عَلَّامَ الْغُيُوبِ فَلَا يَئُودُهُ شَيْءٌ مِنْ حِفْظِهِ يَا حَلِيمُ ذَا الْأَنَاةِ فَلَا يَعْدِلُهُ شَيْءٌ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ
O Mercier of every crier for help and distressed, and its Helper and its Shelter! O Complete, so the tongues cannot describe His-azwj Essence, the Majesty of His-azwj Kingdom and His-azwj Might! O Beginner of the beginnings Who did not Seek in its Creation assistance from His-azwj creatures! O Knower of the unseen so nothing overwhelms Him-azwj from Preserving it! O Forbearing with the Patience, so nothing from His-azwj creation equates to Him-azwj!
يَا مُعِيدَ مَا أَفْنَاهُ إِذَا بَرَزَ الْخَلَائِقُ لِدَعْوَتِهِ مِنْ مَخَافَتِهِ يَا حَمِيدَ الْفِعَالِ ذَا الْمَنِّ عَلَى جَمِيعِ خَلْقِهِ بِلُطْفِهِ يَا عَزِيزُ الْمَنِيعُ الْغَالِبُ عَلَى أَمْرِهِ فَلَا شَيْءَ يَعْدِلُهُ يَا قَاهِرُ ذَا الْبَطْشِ الشَّدِيدِ أَنْتَ الَّذِي لَا يُطَاقُ انْتِقَامُهُ
O Repeater of what is annihilated, when the creatures come out to His-azwj Call from fearing Him-azwj! O Praise-worthy of the Deeds with the Conferment upon entirety of His-azwj creatures by His-azwj Gentleness! O Mighty of the Defence, the Prevailing upon His-azwj Command, so there is nothing equating to Him-azwj! O Subduer with the intense Prowess! You-azwj are the One Whose Vengeance cannot be endured!
يَا قَرِيبُ الْمُتَعَالِي فَوْقَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ عُلُوُّ ارْتِفَاعِهِ يَا مُذِلَّ كُلِّ جَبَّارٍ عَنِيدٍ بِقَهْرِ عَزِيزِ سُلْطَانِهِ يَا نُورَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَ هُدَاهُ أَنْتَ الَّذِي فَلَقَ الظُّلُمَاتِ نُورُهُ يَا قُدُّوسُ الطَّاهِرُ مِنْ كُلِّ سُوءٍ فَلَا شَيْءَ يُعَادِلُهُ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ يَا قَرِيبُ الْمُجِيبُ الْمُتَدَانِي دُونَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قُرْبُهُ
O Near, the Exalted above all things, Exalted in His-azwj Loftiness! O Humiliator of every obstinate tyrant by the Force of His-azwj Mighty Authority! O Noor of all things and its Guide! You-azwj are the One Whose Light Split the darkness(es)! O Holy, the Pure from every evil, so there is nothing from His-azwj creatures equating Him-azwj! O Near, the Responder, the Approachable besides all things in His-azwj Nearness!
يَا عَالِي الشَّامِخُ فَوْقَ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ عُلُوُّ ارْتِفَاعِهِ يَا مُبْدِئَ الْبَدَايَا وَ مُعِيدَهَا بَعْدَ فَنَائِهَا بِقُدْرَتِهِ يَا جَلِيلُ الْمُتَكَبِّرُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ فَالْعَدْلُ أَمْرُهُ وَ الصِّدْقُ قَوْلُهُ وَ وَعْدُهُ يَا مَحْمُودُ فَلَا تَسْتَطِيعُ الْأَوْهَامُ كُلَّ شَأْنِهِ وَ مَجْدِهِ
O Exalted, the Lofty above all things, Exalted in His-azwj Loftiness! O Beginner of the beginnings and their Repeater after their annihilation by His-azwj Power! O Majesty, the Great upon all things! The Justice is His-azwj Command, and the truthfulness is His-azwj Word and His-azwj Promise! O most Praised, so the imaginations are incapable of imagining all His-azwj Splendour and His-azwj Glory!
يَا كَرِيمَ الْعَفْوِ ذَا الْعَدْلِ أَنْتَ الَّذِي مَلَأَ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ عَدْلُهُ يَا عَظِيمُ ذَا الثَّنَاءِ الْفَاخِرِ وَ ذَا الْعِزِّ وَ الْمَجْدِ وَ الْكِبْرِيَاءِ فَلَا يَذِلُّ عِزُّهُ يَا مُجِيبُ فَلَا تَنْطِقُ الْأَلْسِنَةُ بِكُلِّ آلَائِهِ وَ ثَنَائِهِ وَ نَعْمَائِهِ
O Benevolent of the Pardon with the Justice! You-azwj are the One Whose Justice fill all things! O Magnificent with the Laudation, the Pride-worthy, and with the Might and the Glory and the Greatness, so His-azwj Might is not humiliated! O Responder, so the tongues cannot speak with all His-azwj Favour and His-azwj Laudation and His-azwj bounties!
أَسْأَلُكَ يَا غِيَاثِي عِنْدَ كُلِّ كُرْبَةٍ وَ يَا مُجِيبِي عِنْدَ كُلِّ دَعْوَةٍ وَ مَعَاذِي عِنْدَ كُلِّ شِدَّةٍ
I ask You-azwj, O my Helper during every distress, and O my Responder during every supplication, and my Shelter during every adversity!
أَسْأَلُكَ اللَّهُمَّ يَا رَبِّ الصَّلَاةَ عَلَى نَبِيِّكَ مُحَمَّدٍ ص وَ أَمَاناً مِنْ عُقُوبَاتِ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ وَ أَنْ تَحْبِسَ عَنِّي أَبْصَارَ الظَّلَمَةِ الْمُرِيدِينَ بِيَ السُّوءَ وَ أَنْ تَصْرِفَ قُلُوبَهُمْ عَنْ شَرِّ مَا يُضْمِرُونَ إِلَى خَيْرِ مَا لَا يَمْلِكُهُ غَيْرُكَ
I ask You-azwj, O Allah-azwj, O Lord-azwj, for the Salawaat upon Your-azwj Prophet-saww Muhammad‑saww, and security from torments of the world and the Hereafter, and to Withhold from me sights of the oppressors, the intenders of evil with me, and to Turn away their hearts from evil of what they are harbouring, to goodness of what no one controls apart from You‑azwj!
اللَّهُمَّ هَذَا الدُّعَاءُ وَ مِنْكَ الْإِجَابَةُ وَ هَذَا الْحَمْدُ وَ عَلَيْكَ التُّكْلَانُ وَ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْعَظِيمِ.
O Allah-azwj! This is the supplication and the Answering is from You-azwj, and this is the Praise and upon You-azwj is the reliance, and there is neither might nor strength except with Allah-azwj the Exalted, the Magnificent!’’[225]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ع وَ قَدْ قَدَّمْنَا بِهِ رِوَايَةً عِنْدَ دُعَاءِ النَّبِيِّ ص يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ وَ رَأَيْتُ رِوَايَةً أُخْرَى فِي دُعَاءِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ع لَمَّا دَحَى بِهِ إِلَى النَّارِ فَنَجَّاهُ اللَّهُ بِهِ وَ ذَكَرَ الرِّوَايَةَ أَنَّهُ مِنَ السَّرَائِرِ الْعَظِيمَةِ وَ الْقَدْرِ الْكَبِيرِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى فَقَالَ هَذَا مَا لَفْظُهُ
And from that is a supplication of Ibrahim-as, and we have preceded with it in a report of supplication of the Prophet-saww on the day of (battle of) Ohad, and I saw another report regarding supplication of Ibrahim-saww when he-saww was thrown with towards the fire, so Allah-azwj Rescued him-as due to it, and the report mentioned that it is from the mighty secrets and great worth in the Presence of Allah-azwj the Glorious and Exalted. He said, these are its wordings –
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ أَنْتَ الْمَرْهُوبُ يَرْهَبُ مِنْكَ جَمِيعُ خَلْقِكَ
‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent, the Merciful! I ask You-azwj, O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! The feared, entirety of Your-azwj creatures fear from You‑azwj!
يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ أَنْتَ الرَّفِيعُ عَرْشُكَ مِنْ فَوْقِ جَمِيعِ سَمَاوَاتِكَ وَ أَنْتَ الْمُطِلُّ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ لَا يُطِلُّ شَيْءٌ عَلَيْكَ
O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! You-azwj are such, Lofty is Your‑azwj Throne from above entirety of Your-azwj skies, and You-azwj are Towering over all things, nothing towers upon You-azwj!
يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ أَنْتَ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ فَلَا يَصِلُ أَحَدٌ عَظَمَتَكَ
O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! You-azwj are Mightier than all things, so no one can arrive to Your-azwj Might!
يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا نُورَ النُّورِ قَدِ اسْتَضَاءَ بِنُورِكَ أَهْلُ سَمَاوَاتِكَ وَ أَرْضِكَ
O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Light of the Lights! They have been illuminated by Your-azwj Light, inhabitants of Your-azwj skies and Your-azwj earth!
يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ تَعَالَيْتَ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ شَرِيكٌ وَ تَكَبَّرْتَ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ ضِدٌّ
O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! There is no god except You-azwj! You-azwj are more Exalted from there being an associate for You-azwj, and Greater than for there being an opponent for You-azwj!
يَا نُورَ النُّورِ يَا نُورَ كُلِّ نُورٍ لَا خَامِدٌ لِنُورِكَ يَا مَلِيكَ كُلِّ مَلِيكٍ كُلُّ مَلِيكٍ يَفْنَى غَيْرَكَ يَا نُورَ النُّورِ يَا مَنْ مَلَأَ أَرْكَانَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ بِعَظَمَتِهِ
O Light of the lights! O Light of every light, there is no extinguisher of Your-azwj Light! O King of every king! Every king will perish apart from You-azwj! O Light of the lights! O One Whose elements fill the skies and the earth by His-azwj Magnificence!
يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا هُوَ يَا هُوَ يَا مَنْ لَيْسَ كَهُوَ إِلَّا هُوَ يَا مَنْ لَا هُوَ إِلَّا هُوَ أَغِثْنِي أَغِثْنِي السَّاعَةَ السَّاعَةَ السَّاعَةَ يَا مَنْ أَمْرُهُ كَلَمْحِ الْبَصَرِ أَوْ هُوَ أَقْرَبُ يَاهِيّاً شَرَاهِيَّا آذوني أصباوث آل شداي
O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O He-azwj! O He-azwj! O the One there isn’t a he like He-azwj except He-azwj! O One there isn’t a he Like He-azwj! Help me! Help me! Now! Now! O One Whose Command is like the blink of an eye or closer! Bahiyan Sharahiya Azouny Asbawas Aal Shadaie (Hebrew Name of Allah-azwj) and the phrase is not recognisable)!
يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا رَبَّاهْ يَا رَبَّاهْ يَا رَبَّاهْ يَا رَبَّاهْ يَا رَبَّاهْ يَا غَايَةَ مُنْتَهَاهْ وَ رَغْبَتَاهْ
O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Lord-azwj! O Lord-azwj! O Lord‑azwj! O Lord-azwj! O Lord-azwj! O Peak of the end points and its desires!’
فَلَمَّا دَعَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ع عَجَّتِ الْأَمْلَاكُ مِنْ صَوْتِهِ وَ إِذَا النِّدَاءُ مِنَ الْعَلِيِّ الْأَعْلَى يا نارُ كُونِي بَرْداً وَ سَلاماً عَلى إِبْراهِيمَ فَخَمَدَتْ أَسْرَعَ مِنْ طَرْفَةِ عَيْنٍ.
When Ibrahim-as supplicated, the skies buzzed from his-as voice, and there was a Call from the most Exalted of the exalted ones: “O fire! Become cool and safe upon Ibrahim!” [21:69]. It froze quicker than the blink of an eye!’’[226]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ يُوسُفَ ع لَمَّا أُلْقِيَ فِي الْجُبِّ رَوَيْنَاهُ بِإِسْنَادِنَا إِلَى سَعِيدِ بْنِ هِبَةِ اللَّهِ الرَّاوَنْدِيِّ مِنْ كِتَابِ قِصَصِ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ ع بِإِسْنَادِهِ فِيهِ إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ:
And from that is a supplication of Yusuf-as when he-as was thrown into the well. We are reporting it by our chain to Saeed Bin Hibtullah Al-Rawandy, from the book ‘Qasas Al-Anbiya‑as’, by his chain in it up to Abu Abdullah-asws having said:
لَمَّا أَلْقَى إِخْوَةُ يُوسُفَ يُوسُفَ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ فِي الْجُبِّ نَزَلَ عَلَيْهِ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع وَ قَالَ يَا غُلَامُ مَنْ طَرَحَكَ فِي هَذَا الْجُبِّ
‘When the brothers of Yusuf-as threw Yusuf-as, may the Salawaat of Allah-azwj be upon him-as, into the well, Jibraeel-as descended unto him-as and said: ‘O boy! Who dropped you into this well?’
فَقَالَ إِخْوَتِي لِمَنْزِلَتِي مِنْ أَبِي حَسَدُونِي
He-as said: ‘My-as brothers did due to my-as status from my-as father-as. They envied me-as!’
قَالَ أَ تُحِبُّ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ مِنْ هَذَا الْجُبِّ
He-as said: ‘Would you-as like to come out from this well?’
قَالَ ذَاكَ إِلَى إِلَهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَ إِسْحَاقَ وَ يَعْقُوبَ
He-as said: ‘That is up to the God-azwj of Ibrahim-as and Is’haq-as and Yaqoub-as!’
قَالَ جَبْرَئِيلُ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ لَكَ قُلِ- اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ الْحَنَّانُ الْمَنَّانُ بَدِيعُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَ الْإِكْرَامِ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ لِي مِنْ أَمْرِي فَرَجاً وَ مَخْرَجاً وَ تَرْزُقَنِي مِنْ حَيْثُ أَحْتَسِبُ وَ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا أَحْتَسِبُ.
Jibraeel-as said: ‘Allah-azwj Says to you-as: “Say: ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by, for You-azwj is the Praise! There is no god except You-azwj, the Affectionate, the Bestower! Initiator of the skies and the earth! O with the Majesty and the Benevolence, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad‑saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Make from my affairs, a relief and an outlet for me, and Grace me from where I am anticipating, and from where I am not anticipating!’”’[227]
وَ رَأَيْتُ فِي الْمُجَلَّدِ الْخَامِسِ مِنْ حِلْيَةِ الْأَوْلِيَاءِ لِأَبِي نُعَيْمٍ فِي حَدِيثِ الْخُرَاسَانِيِّ أَنَّ دَاوُدَ ع قَالَ: يَا رَبِّ مَا لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ إِذَا نَزَلَ بِهِمْ كَرْبٌ أَوْ شِدَّةٌ قَالُوا يَا إِلَهَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَ إِسْحَاقَ وَ يَعْقُوبَ
And I saw in the fifth volume of ‘Hilyat Al Awliya’ of Abu Nueym, in a Hadeeth of Al-Khurasany that Dawood-as said: ‘O Lord-azwj! What is the matter that the children of Israel-as, whenever a distress or an adversity befalls with them they are saying, ‘O God-azwj of Ibrahim-as, and Is’haq‑as, and Yaqoub-as!’?’
فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ تَعَالَى إِلَى دَاوُدَ ع أَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ لَمْ يُخَيَّرْ بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا اخْتَارَنِي عَلَيْهِ وَ أَنَّ إِسْحَاقَ جَادَ لِي بِمُهْجَتِهِ وَ أَنَّ يَعْقُوبَ ابْتَلَيْتُهُ بِبَلَاءٍ فَمَا أَسَاءَنِي ظَنّاً فِي ذَلِكَ الْبَلَاءِ حَتَّى فَرَّجْتُهُ عَنْهُ أَوْ كَشَفْتُهُ.
Allah-azwj the Exalted Revealed to Dawood-as: “Ibrahim-as did not get a choice between Me-azwj and anything except He-azwj he-as chose Me-azwj, and Is’haq-as made efforts with his-as soul, and Yaqoub-as, I-azwj had Tried him-as affliction be he-as did not have evil thoughts with Me-azwj during that affliction until I-azwj Relieved it from him-as, or Removed it!”’[228]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ رِوَايَةٌ أُخْرَى وَجَدْنَاهَا بِدُعَاءِ يُوسُفَ ع فِي الْجُبِّ وَ لَعَلَّهُ دَعَا بِهِمَا وَ هِيَ
And from that is another report we found with a supplication of Yusuf-as in the well, and perhaps he-as had supplicated with both of these, and it is: –
يَا صَرِيخَ الْمُسْتَصْرِخِينَ وَ يَا غَوْثَ الْمُسْتَغِيثِينَ وَ يَا مُفَرِّجَ كُرَبِ الْمَكْرُوبِينَ قَدْ تَرَى مَكَانِي وَ تَعْرِفُ حَالِي وَ لَا يَخْفَى عَلَيْكَ شَيْءٌ مِنْ أَمْرِي.
‘O Aider of the ones screaming for assistance, and O Helper of the ones crying out for help, and O Reliever of the distress of the distressed ones! You-azwj are Seeing my position and You‑azwj Know of my state, and nothing from my matters is hidden unto You-azwj!’’[229]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ يُوسُفَ ع فِي بَعْضِ أَوْقَاتِ بَلْوَاهُ يَا رَاحِمَ الْمَسَاكِينِ وَ يَا رَازِقَ الْمُتَكَلِّمِينَ يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ وَ يَا مَالِكَ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ وَ يَا غِيَاثَ الْمَكْرُوبِينَ وَ يَا مُجِيبَ دَعْوَةِ الْمُضْطَرِّينَ وَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ وَ يَا أَحْكَمَ الْحَاكِمِينَ وَ يَا أَسْرَعَ الْحَاسِبِينَ وَ يَا خَيْرَ الْمَسْئُولِينَ وَ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَ الْإِكْرَامِ
And from is supplication of Yusuf-as in one of the timings of his-as calamities: ‘O Mercier of the poor, and O Sustainer of the speakers! O Lord-azwj of the worlds, and O King of the Day of Reckoning, and O Helper of the distressed, and O Responder to supplication of the desperate, and O most Merciful of the merciful ones, and O Judge of all judges, and O Quickest of the reckoners, and O best of the ones asked, and O with the Majesty and the Benevolence!
يَا كَبِيرَ كُلِّ كَبِيرٍ يَا مَنْ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَ لَا وَزِيرَ يَا مَنْ هُوَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ يَا مَنْ هُوَ عَلِيمٌ خَبِيرٌ يَا مَنْ هُوَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ بَصِيرٌ يَا خَالِقَ الشَّمْسِ وَ الْقَمَرِ الْمُنِيرِ يَا جَابِرَ الْعَظْمِ الْكَسِيرِ يَا مُغْنِيَ الْبَائِسِ الْفَقِيرِ يَا مُطْلِقَ الْمُكَبَّلِ الْأَسِيرِ يَا مُدَبِّرَ الْأَمْرِ ثُمَ إِلَيْهِ الْمَصِيرُ
O Great of all great ones! O One there is no associate for Him-azwj nor any minister! O One Who is Able upon all things! O One Who is All-Knowing, All-Informed! O One Who is Insightful of all things! O Creator of the sun and the moon! O mender of the broken bones! O Enricher of the destitute, the poor! O Freer of the shackled captive! O Manager of the matters, then to Him-azwj is the destination!
يَا مَنْ لا يُجارُ عَلَيْهِ وَ هُوَ يُجِيرُ يَا مَنْ يُحْيِ الْمَوْتى وَ هُوَ عَلَيْهِ يَسِيرٌ يَا عِصْمَةَ الْخَائِفِ الْمُسْتَجِيرِ يَا مُغْنِيَ الْفَقِيرِ الضَّرِيرِ يَا حَافِظَ الطِّفْلِ الصَّغِيرِ يَا رَاحِمَ الشَّيْخِ الْكَبِيرِ يَا مَنْ لَا تَخْفَى عَلَيْهِ خَافِيَةٌ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ يَا غَافِرَ الذُّنُوبِ يَا عَلَّامَ الْغُيُوبِ يَا سَاتِرَ الْعُيُوبِ
O One there is shelter against Him-azwj and He-azwj Shelters! O One Who Revives the dead and it is easy upon Him-azwj! O Fortification of the fearful, the shelter seeker! O Enricher of the poor, the blind! O Protector of the young child! O Mercier of old man! O One no hidden matter is hidden from Him-azwj in the skies and the earth! O Forgive of the sins! O Knower of the unseen! O Coverer of the faults!
أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تَغْفِرَ لِي وَ لِوَالِدَيَّ وَ تَجَاوَزَ عَنَّا فِيمَا تَعْلَمُ فَإِنَّكَ الْأَعَزُّ الْأَكْرَمُ.
I ask You-azwj to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Forgive for me and for my parents and Overlook from us regarding what You-azwj Know, for You-azwj are the Mightiest, the most Benevolent!’’[230]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ يُوسُفَ ع لَمَّا اتَّهَمَهُ الْعَزِيزُ بِزَلِيخَا وَ هُوَ أَنَّهُ صَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ دَعَا وَ هُوَ مَرْفُوعٌ رَأْسُهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَقَالَ
And from that is a supplication of Yusuf-as when the ruler (of Egypt) accused him-as with Zuleykha, and it is that he-as prayed two Cycles of Salat, then supplicated, and he-as raised his‑as head towards the sky. He-as said: –
اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمِ صِغَرَ سِنِّي وَ ضَعْفَ رُكْنِي وَ قِلَّةَ حِيلَتِي فَ إِنَّكَ عَلى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ فَاذْكُرْنِي بِصَلَاحِ يَعْقُوبَ وَ صَبْرِ إِسْحَاقَ وَ يَقِينِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ وَ شَيْبَةِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ
‘O Allah-azwj! Mercy my-as young age, and my-as weak strength, and my-as lack of means, for You-azwj are Able upon all things! Come across me-as with the weapon of Yaqoub-as, and the patience of Is’haq-as, and conviction of Ismail-as, and old age of Ibrahim-as by Your-azwj Mercy, O most Merciful of the merciful ones!’
فَبَكَتْ لِبُكَائِهِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ.
The Angels in the skies cried at his-as crying’’.[231]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ يَعْقُوبَ ع لَمَّا رَدَّ اللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلَالُهُ عَلَيْهِ يُوسُفَ
And from that is supplication of Yaqoub-as when Allah-azwj, Majestic is His-azwj Majesty Returned Yusuf-as to him-as: –
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ يَا مَنْ خَلَقَ الْخَلْقَ بِغَيْرِ مِثَالٍ وَ يَا مَنْ بَسَطَ الْأَرْضَ بِغَيْرِ أَعْوَانٍ وَ يَا مَنْ دَبَّرَ الْأُمُورَ بِغَيْرِ وَزِيرٍ وَ يَا مَنْ يَرْزُقُ الْخَلْقَ بِغَيْرِ مُشِيرٍ وَ يَا مَنْ يُخَرِّبُ الدُّنْيَا بِغَيْرِ اسْتِيمَارٍ
‘In the Name of Allah-azwj the Beneficent, the Merciful! O the One Who Created the creation without a prior example, and O One Who Spread the earth without assistants, and O the One Who Manages the affairs without a minister, and O the One Who Sustains the creation without consultants, and the O One Who Ruins the world without permission!’
ثُمَّ تَدْعُو بِمَا شِئْتَ تُسْتَجَابُ.
Then supplicate with whatever you desire to, it will be Answered’’.[232]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ أَيُّوبَ ع اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ الْيَوْمَ فَأَعِذْنِي وَ أَسْتَجِيرُ بِكَ الْيَوْمَ مِنْ جَهْدِ الْبَلَاءِ فَأَجِرْنِي وَ أَسْتَغِيثُ بِكَ الْيَوْمَ فَأَغِثْنِي وَ أَسْتَنْصِرُكَ الْيَوْمَ فَانْصُرْنِي وَ أَسْتَعِينُ بِكَ الْيَوْمَ عَلَى أَمْرِي فَأَعِنِّي وَ أَتَوَكَّلُ عَلَيْكَ فَاكْفِنِي وَ أَعْتَصِمُ بِكَ فَاعْصِمْنِي وَ آمَنُ بِكَ فَآمِنِّي
And from that is supplication of Ayoub-as: ‘O Allah-azwj! I seek Refuge with You-azwj today so Grant me Refuge, and I seek Shelter with You-azwj today from the exertion of affliction, so Shelter me, and I seek Help with You-azwj today, so Help me, and I seek Your-azwj victory today, so Grant me victory, and I seek Assistance with You-azwj today upon my affairs, so Assist me, and I rely upon You-azwj, so Suffice me, and I hold on to You-azwj, so Hold me, and I believe in You-azwj so Secure me!
وَ أَسْأَلُكَ فَأَعْطِنِي وَ أَسْتَرْزِقُكَ فَارْزُقْنِي وَ أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ فَاغْفِرْ لِي وَ أَدْعُوكَ فَاذْكُرْنِي وَ أَسْتَرْحِمُكَ فَارْحَمْنِي.
And I ask You-azwj, so Give me, and I seek Your-azwj sustenance, so Sustain me, and I seek Your‑azwj Forgiveness, so Forgive (my sins) for me, and I supplicate to You-azwj, so Remember me, and I seek Your-azwj Mercy, so Mercy me!’’[233]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ مُوسَى ع لَمَّا وَقَفَ عَلَى فِرْعَوْنَ اللَّهُمَّ بَدِيعَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرَضِينَ الَّذِي نَوَاصِي الْعِبَادِ بِيَدِكَ فَإِنَّ فِرْعَوْنَ وَ جَمِيعَ أَهْلِ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ وَ مَا بَيْنَهُمَا عَبِيدُكَ وَ نَوَاصِيهِمْ بِيَدِكَ وَ أَنْتَ تَصْرِفُ الْقُلُوبَ حَيْثُ شِئْتَ
And from that is supplication of Musa-as when he-as stood up to Pharaoh-la: ‘O Allah-azwj! Initiator of the skies and the earths Who, forelocks of the servants are in Your-azwj Hand (control), for Pharaoh-la and entire people of the skies and people of the earth, and whatever is between the two are Your-azwj servants and their forelocks in in Your-azwj Hand, and You-azwj Turn the hearts wherever You-azwj Desire!’
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِخَيْرِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ بِخَيْرِكَ مِنْ خَيْرِهِ عَزَّ جَارُكَ وَ جَلَّ ثَنَاؤُكَ وَ لَا إِلَهَ غَيْرُكَ كُنْ لَنَا جَاراً مِنْ فِرْعَوْنَ وَ جُنُودِهِ
O Allah-azwj! I seek Refuge with Your-azwj Good from his evil, and I ask You-azwj for Your-azwj Good from his good! Mighty is Your-azwj Shelter and Majesty is Your-azwj Laudation, and there is no god apart from You-azwj! Be a Shelter for us from Pharaoh-la and his-la armies!’
ثُمَّ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ وَ قَدْ أَلْبَسَهُ اللَّهُ جُنَّةً مِنْ سُلْطَانِهِ لَنْ يَصِلَ إِلَيْهِ بِعَوْنِ اللَّهِ.
Then he-as entered to see him-la, and Allah-azwj had Clothed him-as a shield from His-azwj Authority. He-la never arrived to him-as by the Support of Allah-azwj’’.[234]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءٌ آخَرُ لِمُوسَى ع لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ الْحَلِيمُ الْكَرِيمُ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ رَبِّ السَّمَاوَاتِ السَّبْعِ وَ رَبِّ الْأَرَضِينَ السَّبْعِ وَ رَبِّ الْعَرْشِ الْعَظِيمِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
And from that is another supplication of Musa-as: ‘There is no god except Allah-azwj the Forbearing, the Benevolent! Glorious is Allah-azwj Lord-azwj of the seven skies and Lord-azwj of the seven earths, and Lord-azwj of the Magnificent Throne, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj Lord‑azwj of the worlds!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَدْرَأُ بِكَ فِي نَحْرِهِ وَ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ شَرِّهِ وَ أَسْتَعِينُكَ عَلَيْهِ فَاكْفِنِيهِ بِمَا شِئْتَ.
O Allah-azwj! I rotate by You-azwj (his evil) back into his throat, and I seek Refuge with You-azwj from his evil, and I seek Your-azwj Assistance against him, so Suffice me of him with whatever You-azwj Desire!’’[235]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ يُوشَعَ بْنِ نُونٍ وَصِيِّ مُوسَى ع رَوَيْنَاهُ بِإِسْنَادِنَا إِلَى سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مِنْ كِتَابِ فَضْلِ الدُّعَاءِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ إِلَى الرِّضَا ع قَالَ: وَجَدَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الصَّحَابَةِ صَحِيفَةً فَأَتَى بِهَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ص فَنَادَى الصَّلَاةَ جَامِعَةً فَمَا تَخَلَّفَ أَحَدٌ ذَكَرٌ وَ لَا أُنْثَى فَرَقَا الْمِنْبَرَ فَقَرَأَهَا فَإِذَا كِتَابُ يُوشَعَ بْنِ نُونٍ وَصِيِّ مُوسَى وَ إِذَا فِيهَا
And from that is a supplication of Yoshua Bin Noun-as, successor-as of Musa-as. We are reporting it by our chain not Sa’ad Bin Abdullah, from the book ‘Fazl Al-Dua’, by his chain to Al-Reza-asws having said: ‘A man from the companions found a parchment, so he came with it to Rasool-Allah-saww. He-saww called for the congregational Salat, so no one stayed behind, neither male nor female. He-saww ascended the pulpit and read it, and it was a letter of Yoshua-as Bin Noun‑as, successor-as of Musa-as, and it is was: –
وَ إِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ لَرَؤُفٌ رَحِيمٌ أَلَا إِنَّ خَيْرَ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ التَّقِيُّ الْخَفِيُّ وَ إِنَّ شَرَّ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ الْمُشَارُ إِلَيْهِ بِالْأَصَابِعِ
‘And your Lord-azwj is Kind, Merciful! Indeed, the best of servants of Allah-azwj is the pious, the fearing, and the evillest of servants of Allah-azwj is the one indicated to by the fingers.
فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَكْتَالَ بِالْمِكْيَالِ الْأَوْفَى وَ أَنْ يُؤَدِّيَ الْحُقُوقَ الَّتِي أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ بِهَا عَلَيْهِ فَلْيَقُلْ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلَّهِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلَّهِ وَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلَّهِ وَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلَّهِ
The one who loves to be weighed a full measure and to fulfil the rights which Allah-azwj has Favoured with upon him, let him say during every day, ‘Glory be to Allah-azwj just as is befitting for Allah-azwj, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj just as is befitting for Allah-azwj, and there is no god except Allah-azwj just as is befitting for Allah-azwj and Allah-azwj is Greatest just as is befitting for Allah-azwj!
وَ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ وَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتِ النَّبِيِّ وَ عَلَى جَمِيعِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ حَتَّى يَرْضَى اللَّهُ
And there is neither might nor strength except with Allah-azwj, and may Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and upon People-asws of the Household of the Prophet-saww, and upon entirety of the Messengers-as until Allah-azwj is Pleased!’
وَ نَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص وَ قَدْ أَلَحُّوا فِي الدُّعَاءِ فَصَبَرَ هُنَيْئَةً ثُمَّ رَقَا الْمِنْبَرَ فَقَالَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَعْلُوَ ثَنَاؤُهُ عَلَى ثَنَاءِ الْمُجَاهِدِينَ فَلْيَقُلْ هَذَا الْقَوْلَ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ حَاجَةٌ قُضِيَتْ أَوْ عَدُوٌّ كُبِتَ أَوْ دَيْنٌ قُضِيَ أَوْ كَرْبٌ كُشِفَ وَ خَرَقَ كَلَامُهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ حَتَّى يُكْتَبَ فِي اللَّوْحِ الْمَحْفُوظِ.
And Rasool-Allah-saww descended and he-saww was insistent in the supplication. He-saww was patient for a while, then ascended the pulpit. He-saww said: ‘One who loves to his laudation to be exalted upon laudation of the fighters, let him says this word during every day, for if there was a need for him, it would be fulfilled, or an enemy, he would be suppressed, and or debts, it would be fulfilled, or distress, it would be removed, and his speech would pierce through the skies until it is written in the Guarded Tablet’’.[236]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ الْخَضِرِ وَ إِلْيَاسَ ع رُوِيَ أَنَّ الْخَضِرَ وَ إِلْيَاسَ يَجْتَمِعَانِ فِي كُلِّ مَوْسِمٍ فَيَفْتَرِقَانِ عَنْ هَذَا الدُّعَاءِ وَ هُوَ
And from that is supplication of Al-Khizr-as and Ilyas-as. It is reported that Al-Khizr-as and Ilyas‑as used to gather during every season (of Hajj) and they-as would separate upon this supplication, and it is: –
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ ما شاءَ اللَّهُ لا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ كُلُّ نِعْمَةٍ مِنَ اللَّهِ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ الْخَيْرُ كُلُّهُ بِيَدِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ لَا يَصْرِفُ السُّوءَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ
‘In the Name of Allah-azwj! Whatever Allah-azwj Desires! There is no strength except with Allah‑azwj! Whatever Allah-azwj Desires! Every bounty is from Allah-azwj! Whatever Allah-azwj Desires! The goodness, all of it is in the Hand of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic! Whatever Allah-azwj Desires! No one can turn the evil away except Allah-azwj!’
قَالَ فَمَنْ قَالَهَا حِينَ يُصْبِحُ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ أَمِنَ مِنَ الْحَرَقِ وَ السَّرَقِ وَ الْغَرَقِ.
He said, ‘The one who says it three times when it is morning would be safe from the burning and the theft and the drowning’’.[237]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءٌ آخَرُ لِلْخَضِرِ ع يَا شَامِخاً فِي عُلُوِّهِ يَا قَرِيباً فِي دُنُوِّهِ يَا مُدَانِياً فِي بُعْدِهِ يَا رَءُوفاً فِي رَحْمَتِهِ يَا مُخْرِجَ النَّبَاتِ يَا دَائِمَ الثَّبَاتِ يَا مُحْيِيَ الْأَمْوَاتِ يَا ظَهْرَ اللَّاجِينَ يَا جَارَ الْمُسْتَجِيرِينَ يَا أَسْمَعَ السَّامِعِينَ يَا أَبْصَرَ النَّاظِرِينَ
And from that is another supplication of Al-Khizr-as: ‘O High in His-azwj Exaltedness! O Near in His-azwj closeness! O Approachable in His-azwj remoteness! O Kind in His-azwj Mercy! O Extractor of the vegetation! O Constant of the Rewarding! O Reviver of the dead! O Support of the refugees! O Shelter of the seekers of shelter! O most Listening of the listeners!

O Witness not being absent! O Prevailer not being prevailed! O Living when there was no living being! O Reviver of the dead! O Living! There is no god except You-azwj!!’
مَنْ قَالَهُ قَوْلًا أَوْ سَمِعَهُ سَمْعاً أَمِنَ الْوَسْوَسَةَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً.
One who says it in words, or hears it from a speaker would be safe from the insinuations for forty years’’.[238]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ يُونُسَ بْنِ مَتَّى ع وَ هُوَ يَا رَبِّ مِنَ الْجِبَالِ أَنْزَلْتَنِي وَ مِنَ الْمَسْكَنِ أَخْرَجْتَنِي وَ فِي الْبِحَارِ صَيَّرْتَنِي وَ فِي بَطْنِ الْحُوتِ حَبَسْتَنِي فَ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ سُبْحانَكَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ فَأَنْجَاهُ اللَّهُ مِنَ الْغَمِ.
And from that is supplication of Yunus-as Bin Matta-as and it is – ‘O Lord-azwj! You-azwj Brought me-as down from the mountains, and Extracted me-as from the dwelling, and Made me come to the seas and Withheld me-as in the belly of a whale, so ‘There is no god except Allah! Glorious are You, I was of the unjust ones!’ [21:87], so Allah-azwj Rescued him-as from the sadness’’.[239]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءٌ آخَرُ لِيُونُسَ بْنِ مَتَّى ع وَ هُوَ يَا رَبِّ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَسْمَائِكَ الْحُسْنَى وَ آلَائِكَ الْعُلْيَا وَ أَسْأَلُكَ يَا رَبِّ يَا اللَّهُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا كَبِيرُ يَا جَلِيلُ يَا حَنَّانُ يَا مَنَّانُ يَا فَرْدُ يَا دَائِمُ يَا وَتْرُ يَا أَحَدُ يَا صَمَدُ يَا اللَّهُ يَا لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ
And from that is another supplication of Yunus-as Bin Matta-as, and it is – ‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You‑azwj by Your-azwj most excellent Name, and Your-azwj Exalted Favours, and I ask You-azwj, O Lord-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Allah-azwj! O Great! O Majestic! O Affectionate, O Bestower!

I ask You-azwj with, there is no god, to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and for Forgive my sins for me, and to Prohibit my body unto the Hellfire!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ قُلْتَ فِي كِتَابِكَ الْمُنْزَلِ عَلَى مُوسَى أَلَّا تَرُدُّوا السَّائِلِينَ عَنْ أَبْوَابِكُمْ وَ نَحْنُ عَلَى بَابِكَ فَلَا تَرُدَّنَا
O Allah-azwj! You-azwj Said in Your-azwj Book Revealed unto Musa-as: “Indeed you shall not return the beggars from your doors!”, and we are beggars at Your-azwj Door, so do not Return us!
اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ قُلْتَ فِي كِتَابِكَ الْمُنْزَلِ عَلَى نَبِيِّكَ مُوسَى أَنِ اغْفِرُوا لِلظَّالِمِينَ وَ نَحْنُ الظَّالِمُونَ عَلَى بَابِكَ فَاغْفِرْ لَنَا

O Allah-azwj! You-azwj Said in Your-azwj Book Revealed unto Musa Bin Imran-as, to liberate the slaves, and we are Your-azwj slaves, so Liberate us from the Hellfire!’’[240]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ دَاوُدَ ع عَلَى وَصْفِ التَّحْمِيدِ رُوِيَ أَنَّ دَاوُدَ ع لَمَّا قَالَ هَذَا التَّحْمِيدَ أَوْحَى اللَّهُ تَعَالَى إِلَيْهِ أَتْعَبْتَ الْحَفَظَةَ وَ هُوَ
And from that is a supplication of Dawood-as based upon description of the Praises. It is reported that when Dawood-as said this Praise, Allah-azwj the Exalted Revealed to him-as: ‘Fatigue the recorders (Angels)!’, and it is –
اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ دَائِماً مَعَ دَوَامِكَ وَ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ بَاقِياً مَعَ بَقَائِكَ وَ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ خَالِداً مَعَ خُلُودِكَ وَ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِكَرَمِ وَجْهِكَ وَ عِزِّ جَلَالِكَ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَ الْإِكْرَامِ.
‘O Allah-azwj! For You-azwj is the Praise, constantly with Your-azwj Permanence, and for You-azwj is the Praise, remaining with Your-azwj Remaining, and for You-azwj is the Praise eternally with Your-azwj eternality, and for You-azwj is the Praise just as is befitting for the Honour of Your-azwj Face, and Might of Your-azwj Majesty, O with the Majesty and the Benevolence!’’[241]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ آصَفَ وَزِيرِ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ دَاوُدَ ع رُوِيَ أَنَّهُ أَتَى بِهِ عَرْشَ بِلْقِيسَ وَ أَنَّهُ الدُّعَاءُ الَّذِي كَانَ عِيسَى ع يُحْيِي بِهِ الْمَوْتَى وَ هُوَ
And from that is supplication of Aasif-as, minister of Suleyman Bin Dawood-as. It is reported that he-as brought him-as the throne of Bilquees, and it is the supplication by which Isa-as had revived the dead, and it is: –
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ الْحَيُّ الْقَيُّومُ الطَّاهِرُ الْمُطَهَّرُ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرَضِينَ.
‘O Allah-azwj! I ask You-azwj by, You-azwj are Allah-azwj! There is no god except You-azwj! The Living, the Eternal, the Pure, the Purifier, Noor of the skies and the earths!’’[242]
وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى رَبُّ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرَضِينَ عالِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَ الشَّهادَةِ الْكَبِيرُ الْمُتَعالِ الْحَنَّانُ الْمَنَّانُ ذُو الْجَلَالِ وَ الْإِكْرَامِ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ بِي كَذَا وَ كَذَا وَ تَجْعَلَهُ أَنْتَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ بِي كَذَا وَ كَذَا فَإِنَّهُ يُسْتَجَابُ لَكَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ هَذَا لَفْظُهُ كَمَا وَجَدْنَاهُ.
And in another report – ‘Lord-azwj of the skies and the earths, Knower of the unseen and the seen, the Great, the Exalted, the Affectionate, the Bestower, with the Majesty and the Benevolence, to Do such and such with me, and You-azwj Make it to Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww, and to Do such and such with me!’, for it would Answered for you if Allah-azwj Desires’. – This is the wording we have found’’.[243]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ عِيسَى ع رَوَيْنَاهُ بِإِسْنَادِنَا إِلَى سَعِيدِ بْنِ هِبَةِ اللَّهِ الرَّاوَنْدِيِّ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ كِتَابِ قِصَصِ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ إِلَى الصَّادِقِ ع عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ص قَالَ: لَمَّا اجْتَمَعَتِ الْيَهُودُ إِلَى عِيسَى ع لِيَقْتُلُوهُ بِزَعْمِهِمْ أَتَاهُ جَبْرَئِيلُ ع فَغَشَّاهُ بِجَنَاحِهِ فَطَمَحَ عِيسَى بِبَصَرِهِ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِكِتَابٍ فِي بَاطِنِ جَنَاحِ جَبْرَئِيلَ ع وَ هُوَ
And from that is supplication of Isa-as. We are reporting it by our chain to Saeed Bin Hibtullah Al-Rawandy, may Allah-azwj Mercy him, from the book ‘Qasas Al-Anbiya-as’, by his chain to Al-Sadiq-asws, from his-asws forefathers-asws, from the Prophet-saww having said: ‘When the Jews gathered to Isa-as in order to kill him-as, they claimed that Jibraeel-as came to him-as, and covered him-as with his-as wings. He-azwj Inspired Isa-as with His-azwj Insight, so there he-as was with a Book in the interior of wings of Jibraeel-as, and it is: –
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَدْعُوكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْوَاحِدِ الْأَعَزِّ وَ أَدْعُوكَ اللَّهُمَّ بِاسْمِكَ الصَّمَدِ وَ أَدْعُوكَ اللَّهُمَّ بِاسْمِكَ الْعَظِيمِ الْوَتْرِ وَ أَدْعُوكَ اللَّهُمَّ بِاسْمِكَ الْكَبِيرِ الْمُتَعَالِ الَّذِي ثَبَتَتْ بِهِ أَرْكَانُكَ كُلُّهَا أَنْ تَكْشِفَ عَنِّي مَا أَصْبَحْتُ وَ أَمْسَيْتُ فِيهِ
‘O Allah-azwj! I supplicate to You-azwj with Your-azwj Name, the Mightiest, and I supplicate to You‑azwj, O Allah-azwj, with Your-azwj Name, the Solid, and I supplicate to You-azwj, O Allah-azwj, by Your-azwj Name the Magnificent, the Single, and I supplicate to You-azwj O Allah-azwj by Your-azwj Name the Great, the Exalted by which You-azwj Affirmed Your-azwj pillars, all of them, to Remove from me, what I have come to the morning and evening in!’
فَلَمَّا دَعَا بِهِ ع أَوْحَى اللَّهُ تَعَالَى إِلَى جَبْرَئِيلَ أَنِ ارْفَعْهُ إِلَى عِنْدِي
When he-as had supplicated with it, Allah-azwj the Exalted Revealed to Jibraeel-as: “Raise him-as to My-azwj Presence!”’
ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص يَا بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ سَلُوا رَبَّكُمْ بِهَذِهِ الْكَلِمَاتِ فَوَ اللَّهِ الَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا دَعَا بِهِنَّ عَبْدٌ بِإِخْلَاصِ نِيَّةٍ إِلَّا اهْتَزَّ لَهُنَّ الْعَرْشُ وَ إِلَّا قَالَ اللَّهُ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ اشْهَدُوا أَنِّي قَدِ اسْتَجَبْتُ لَهُ بِهِنَّ وَ أَعْطَيْتُهُ سُؤْلَهُ فِي عَاجِلِ دُنْيَاهُ وَ آجِلِ آخِرَتِهِ
Then Rasool-Allah-saww said: ‘O clan of Abdul Muttalib-as! Ask your Lord-azwj with these phrases! By Allah-azwj in Whose Hand is my-saww soul! No servant will supplicate with these with sincere intention except the Throne will shake for these, or else Allah-azwj will Say to the Angels: “Be witnesses that I-azwj have Answered for him due to these and have Granted him his request, in the current of his world and future of his Hereafter!”’
ثُمَّ قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ سَلُوهَا وَ لَا تَسْتَبْطِئُوا الْإِجَابَةَ.
Then he-saww said to his-saww companions: ‘Ask by it and do not think the Answer would be delayed!’’[244]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ عِيسَى ع بِرِوَايَةٍ غَيْرِ هَذِهِ وَ هِيَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ص رَأَى فِي بَاطِنِ جَبْرَئِيلَ الدُّعَاءَ فَعَلَّمَهُ عَلِيّاً وَ الْعَبَّاسَ وَ قَالَ يَا عَلِيُّ يَا خَيْرَ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ يَا بَنِي عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ سَلُوا رَبَّكُمْ بِهَؤُلَاءِ الْكَلِمَاتِ
And from that is supplication of Isa-as by a report other than this, and it is: – ‘The Prophet-saww saw the supplication in the interior of Jibraeel-as, so he-saww taught it to Ali-asws and Al-Abbas, and he-saww said: ‘O Ali-asws! O best ones of the clan of Hashim-as! O clan of Abdul Muttalib-as! Ask your Lord-azwj with these phrases!
فَوَ الَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا دَعَا بِهِنَّ مُؤْمِنٌ بِإِخْلَاصٍ إِلَّا اهْتَزَّ لَهُنَّ الْعَرْشُ وَ السَّمَاوَاتُ السَّبْعُ وَ الْأَرَضُونَ وَ قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ اشْهَدُوا أَنِّي قَدِ اسْتَجَبْتُ لِلدَّاعِي بِهِنَّ وَ أَعْطَيْتُهُ سُؤْلَهُ فِي عَاجِلِ دُنْيَاهُ وَ آجِلِ آخِرَتِهِ
By the One in Whose Hand is my soul! No Momin will supplicate with these with the sincerity except the earth will shake for these, and (so will) the seven skies and the earths, and Allah‑azwj the Exalted Said to His-azwj Angels: “Be witnesses that I-saww have Answered for the supplicant due to these and have Granted him his request in the current of his world and future of his Hereafter!”
وَ زَعَمُوا أَنَّهُ الدُّعَاءُ الَّذِي دَعَا بِهِ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ فَرَفَعَهُ اللَّهُ وَ هُوَ هَذَا الدُّعَاءُ
And they claimed that it is the supplication which Isa-as Ibn Maryam-as had supplicated with it, so Allah-azwj Raise him-saww, and it is this supplication: –
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِاسْمِكَ الْوَاحِدِ الْأَحَدِ وَ أَعُوذُ بِاسْمِكَ الْأَحَدِ الصَّمَدِ وَ أَعُوذُ بِكَ بِاسْمِكَ اللَّهُمَّ الْعَظِيمِ الْوَتْرِ وَ أَعُوذُ اللَّهُمَّ بِاسْمِكَ الْكَبِيرِ الْمُتَعَالِ الَّذِي مَلَأَ الْأَرْكَانَ كُلَّهَا أَنْ تَكْشِفَ عَنِّي غَمَّ مَا أَصْبَحْتُ فِيهِ وَ أَمْسَيْتُ.
‘O Allah-azwj! I seek Refuge with Your-azwj Name the One, the First, and I seek Refuge with Your‑azwj Name the First, the Firm, and I seek Refuge with Your-azwj Name, O Allah-azwj the Mighty, the Single, and I seek Refuge, O Allah-azwj, with Your-azwj Name the Great, the Exalted Who Fills the elements, all of them, to Remove from me sadness of what I have come to the morning and evening with’’.[245]
وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءٌ لِعِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ ع بِرِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى وَ هُوَ اللَّهُمَّ خَالِقَ النَّفْسِ مِنَ النَّفْسِ وَ مُخْرِجَ النَّفْسِ مِنَ النَّفْسِ وَ مُخَلِّصَ النَّفْسِ مِنَ النَّفْسِ فَرِّجْ عَنَّا وَ خَلِّصْنَا مِنْ شِدَّتِنَا.
And from that is a supplication of Isa-as Ibn Maryam-as by another report, and it is: – O Allah‑azwj! Creator of the soul from the soul, and Extractor of the soul, and Rescuer of the soul from the soul! Relieve from us and Rescue us from our adversities!’’[246]
23- مهج، مهج الدعوات وَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ دُعَاءُ سَلْمَانَ الْفَارِسِيِّ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ الَّذِي عَلَّمَهُ النَّبِيُّ ص وَ يُرْوَى أَنَّ سَلْمَانَ كَانَ مِنْ بَقَايَا أَوْصِيَاءِ عِيسَى ع وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَحَدِ الْأَئِمَّةِ ص أَنَّ سَلْمَانَ أَدْرَكَ الْعِلْمَ الْأَوَّلَ وَ الْآخِرَ وَجَدْتُهُ فِي أَصْلٍ عَتِيقٍ تَارِيخُ كِتَابَتِهِ رَبِيعُ الْآخِرِ سَنَةَ أَرْبَعَةَ عَشَرَ وَ ثَلَاثِمِائَةٍ قَالَ:
(The book) ‘Mahj Al-Dawaat’ – And from that is supplication of Salman Al-Farsi-ra, may Allah‑azwj be Satisfied with him-ra, which the Prophet-saww taught him-ra, and it is reported that Salman-ra was from the remaining successors-as of Isa-as, and it is reported from one of the Imams-asws that Salman-ra had realised the knowledge of the former ones and the Latter ones. I found it in the original ancient history of his book, in Rabbi Al-Aakhir of the year three hundred and fourteen.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص لِسَلْمَانَ الْفَارِسِيِّ أَ لَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِمَا هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الذَّهَبِ وَ الْفِضَّةِ وَ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَ زَهْرَتِهَا
He-ra said, ‘Rasool-Allah-saww said to Salman Al-Farsi-ra: ‘Shall I-saww inform you-ra with what is better than the world than the gold and the silver, and better than the world and its blossoms?’
فَقَالَ بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى آلِكَ
He-ra said, ‘Yes, O Rasool-Allah-saww! May Allah-azwj Send Salawaat upon you-saww and upon your‑saww Progeny-asws!’
قَالَ فَقُلْ اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ الْأَمْرَ قَدْ خَلَصَ إِلَى نَفْسِي وَ هِيَ أَعَزُّ الْأَنْفُسِ عَلَيَّ وَ أَهَمُّهَا إِلَيَّ وَ قَدْ عَلِمْتَ رَبِّي وَ عِلْمُكَ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ عِلْمِي إِنَّكَ تَعْلَمُ مِنِّي مَا لَا أَعْلَمُ مِنْ نَفْسِي
He-saww said: ‘Say: ‘O Allah-azwj! The matter has ended to myself, and it is dearest of the souls to me and more important of the two to me, and You-azwj Know, my Lord-azwj, and Your-azwj Knowledge is superior to my knowledge! You-azwj Know from me, what I don’t know from myself!
لَكَ مَحْيَايَ وَ مَمَاتِي وَ دُنْيَايَ وَ آخِرَتِي إِلَيْكَ مَرْجِعِي وَ مُنْقَلَبِي لَا أَمْلِكُ إِلَّا مَا أَعْطَيْتَنِي وَ لَا أَتَّقِي إِلَّا مَا وَقَيْتَنِي وَ لَا أُنْفِقُ إِلَّا مَا رَزَقْتَنِي
For You-azwj is my life and my death, and my world and my Hereafter! To You-azwj is my return and my transfer! I do not own except what You-azwj have Given me, nor can I save except what You-azwj Save me (from), nor can I spend except what You-azwj have Graced me!
بِنُورِكَ اهْتَدَيْتُ وَ بِفَضْلِكَ اسْتَغْنَيْتُ وَ بِنِعْمَتِكَ أَصْبَحْتُ وَ أَمْسَيْتُ مَلَكْتَنِي بِقُدْرَتِكَ وَ قَدَرْتَ عَلَيَّ بِسُلْطَانِكَ تَقْضِي فِيمَا أَرَدْتَ لَا يَحُولُ أَحَدٌ دُونَ قَضَائِكَ
By Your-azwj Noor I am guided, and by Your-azwj Grace I am enriched, and by Your-azwj bounties I come to a morning and an evening! You-azwj Made me own by Your-azwj Power, and You-azwj Determined upon me with Your-azwj Authority! Decree regarding whatever You-azwj Want. No one can hinder from what You-azwj Decree!
أَوْقَرْتَنِي نِعَماً وَ أَوْقَرْتُ نَفْسِي ذُنُوباً كَثُرَتْ خَطَايَايَ وَ عَظُمَ جُرْمِي وَ اكْتَنَفَتْنِي شَهَوَاتِي فَقَدْ ضَاقَ بِهَا ذَرْعِي وَ عَجَزَ عَنْهَا عَمَلِي وَ ضَعُفَ عَنْهَا شُكْرِي وَ قَدْ كِدْتُ أَنْ أَقْنَطَ مِنْ رَحْمَتِكَ
You-azwj have Bestowed bounties upon me and I have perpetrated the sins for myself! My wrongdoings are many and my crimes are mighty, and my lustful desires have covered me, so my chest is constricted due to it, and my deeds are frustrated from it, and my gratefulness is weak for it, and I have almost despaired (lost hope) from Your-azwj Mercy!
إِلَهِي وَ أَنْ أُلْقِيَ إِلَى التَّهْلُكَةِ بِيَدِيَ الَّذِي أَيْأَسُ مِنْهُ عُذْرِي وَ ذِكْرِي مِنْ ذُنُوبِي وَ مَا أَسْرَفْتُ بِهِ عَلَى نَفْسِي وَ لَكِنَّ رَحْمَتَكَ رَبِّ الَّتِي تُنْهِضُنِي وَ تُقَوِّينِي وَ لَوْ لَا هِيَ لَمْ أَرْفَعْ رَأْسِي وَ لَمْ أَقِمْ صُلْبِي مِنْ ثِقَلِ ذُنُوبِي
My God-azwj, and if I were to cast myself into the destruction with my own hands which my excuses have despaired from, and my Zikr from my sins, and what I have been extravagant with upon myself, but Your-azwj Mercy, Lord-azwj, is which has uplifted me and strengthened me, and had it not been for it, I would not have raised my head and would not have straightened my back from the weight of my sins!
فَإِيَّاكَ أَرْجُو إِلَهِي أَنْتَ أَرْجَى عِنْدِي مِنْ عَمَلِيَ الَّذِي أَتَخَوَّفُهُ وَ أُشْفِقُ مِنْهُ عَلَى نَفْسِي إِلَهِي وَ كَيْفَ لَا أُشْفِقُ مِنْ ذُنُوبِي وَ قَدْ خِفْتُ أَنْ تَكُونَ أَوْبَقَتْنِي وَ قَدْ أَحَاطَتْ بِي وَ أَهْلَكَتْنِي
In You-azwj I hope, my God, You-azwj are my hope! With me are from my deeds which I am fearing and am dreading from upon myself. My God-azwj, and how can I not dread from my sins and I am fearing that it would crush me and these have surrounded me and destroyed me!
وَ أَنَا أَذْكُرُ مِنْ تَضْيِيعِ أَمَانَتِي وَ مَا قَدْ تَكَلَّفْتُ بِهِ عَلَى نَفْسِي مَا لَمْ تَحْمِلْهُ الْجِبَالُ قَبْلِي وَ لَا السَّمَاوَاتُ وَ الْأَرَضُونَ وَ هِيَ أَقْوَى مِنِّي وَ حَمَلْتُهَا بِعِلْمِكَ بِهَا وَ قِلَّةِ عِلْمِي
And I do remember from the wastage of my entrustment, and what I have been encumbered with upon myself what neither the mountain before me had endured, nor the skies and the earth, and (although) these are stronger than me, and I have carried these with Your-azwj Knowledge with it and lack of my knowledge!
فَلَوْ كَانَ لِي عِلْمٌ يَنْفَعُنِي لَمْ تَقَرَّ فِي الدُّنْيَا عَيْنِي وَ أصارت [لَصَارَتْ] حَلَاوَتُهَا مَرَارَةً عِنْدِي وَ لَفَرَرْتُ هَارِباً مِنْ ذُنُوبِي لَا بَيْتَ يَأْوِينِي وَ لَا ظِلَّ يُكِنُّنِي مَعَ الْوُحُوشِ مَقْعَدِي وَ مَقِيلِي وَ لَوْ فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ لَكَانَ يَحِقُّ لِي أَنْ أَتَخَوَّفَ عَلَى نَفْسِي
Had there been for me knowledge benefitting me, my eyes would not have been delighted in the world, and its sweetness would have become bitterness in my view, and I would have fled fleeing from my sins! There would have neither been any house to shelter me nor any shade to cover me, and my sitting and my sleeping would have been with the beasts, and had I done that, it would have been rightful for me that I fear upon myself!
وَ الْمَوْتُ يَطْلُبُنِي حَثِيثاً دَائِباً يَقُصُّ أَثَرِي مُوَكَّلٌ بِي كَأَنَّهُ لَا يُرِيدُ أَحَداً غَيْرِي لَيْسَ يُنَاظِرُنِي سَاعَةً إِذَا جَاءَ أَجَلِي كَأَنِّي أَرَانِي صَرِيعاً بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ وَ كَأَنِّي بِالْمَوْتِ لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ يَمْنَعُنِي وَ لَا يَدْفَعُ كَرْبَهُ عَنِّي وَ لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ امْتِنَاعاً يُؤَخِّرُنِي وَ بِكَأْسِ الْمَوْتِ يَسْقِينِي وَ لَا مَنَعَةَ عِنْدِي مَقْلُوبَةً بِكَرْبِ الْمَوْتِ طَرْفِي جَزَعاً
And the death is seeking me eagerly, constantly, erasing my traces. It is allocated with me as if it does not intend anyone apart from me. It does not respite me for a moment. When my term comes (to an end), it is as if it sees me knocked down in front of it, and it is as if I am with the death, there isn’t anyone who can prevent me from the death, nor repel its distress from me, nor am I capable of prevention to delay (respite) me, and quenching me with the cup of death, nor is there any defence with me to overturn the distress of death for the blink of an eye of panic!
فَيَا لَكَ مِنْ مَصْرَعٍ مَا أَقْطَعَهُ عِنْدِي مَغْلُوبَةً بِكَرْبِ الْمَوْتِ نَفْسِي تَخْتَلِجُ لَهَا أَعْضَائِي وَ أَوْصَالِي وَ كُلُّ عِرْقٍ سَاكِنٍ مِنِّي فَكَأَنِّي بِمَلَكِ الْمَوْتِ يَسْتَلُّ رُوحِي مُسْتَسْلِمٌ لَهُ بَلْ عَلَى الْكَرَاهَةِ مِنِّي كَذَا رُسُلُ رَبِّي يَقْبِضُونَ فِي الْحَرِّ رُوحِي
So, alas from the terror of what overcomes with me with the distress of death! My soul shivers, and my limbs and my joints, and every still vein from me convulses. It is asked if I am with the Angel of death extracting, my soul is submitting to it, but upon the abhorrence from me! Such are Messengers of my Lord-azwj, capturing my soul in the heat!
فَعِنْدَهَا يَنْقَطِعُ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا أَثَرِي وَ أُغْلِقَ بَابُ تَوْبَتِي وَ رُفِعَتْ كُتُبِي وَ طُوِيَتْ صَحِيفَتِي وَ عَفَا ذِكْرِي وَ رُفِعَ عَمَلِي وَ أُدْخِلْتُ فِي هَوْلِ آخِرَتِي وَ صِرْتُ جَسَداً بَيْنَ أَهْلِي
During it, my impacts are cut off from the world and the door of my repentance is locked, and my book (register of deeds) is raised, and my parchment is folded, and my mention is excused, and my deeds are raised, and I have entered into the horrors of my Hereafter, and I have become (just) a body between my family.
يَصْرُخُونَ وَ يَبْكُونَ حَوْلِي وَ قَدِ اسْتَوْحَشُوا مِنِّي وَ أَحَبُّوا فُرْقَتِي وَ عَجَّلُوا إِلَى كَفَنِي وَ حَمَلُونِي إِلَى حُفْرَتِي فَأُلْقِيتُ فِيهَا لِحَيْنِي وَ سُوِّيَتِ الْأَرْضُ عَلَيَّ مِنْ فَوْقِي وَ سَلَّمُوا عَلَيَّ وَ وَدَّعُونِي وَ أُقِمْتُ فِي مُنْتَهَا مَنْ كَانَ قِبَلِي مِنْ جِيرَانٍ لَا يُؤَانِسُونِّي وَ لَا أَزُورُهُمْ وَ لَا يَزُورُونِّي وَ فِي عَسْكَرِ الْمَوْتِ خَلَّفُونِي
They are shouting and crying around me, and they are lonely from me and love my nearness, and they hasten to enshroud me and carry me to my grave. I am cast into it to my side and the earth (soil) is evened upon me from above me, and they greet unto me and bid me farewell, and I stay among the ones who were before me who have already ended in it, being neighbours who neither comfort me nor do they visit me, and they have left me behind among the soldiers of death!
فِيهِ مَضْجَعِي وَ مَنَامِي وَحْشٌ قَفْرٌ مَكَانِي قَدْ ذَهَبَ الْأَهْلُونَ عَنِّي وَ أَيْقَنُوا بِالتَّفْرِقَةِ مِنِّي لَا يَرْجُونِّي آخِرَ الدَّهْرِ لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ مِنْهُمْ يُؤْنِسُنِي فِي وَحْشَتِي وَ لَا يَحْمِلُ ذَنْباً مِنْ ذُنُوبِي وَ كُلٌّ قَدْ ذَهَلَ عَنِّي وَ تَرَكُونِي وَحِيداً فِي قَبْرِي وَ أَنَا صَاحِبُ نَفْسِي لَا يَرَانِي أَحَدٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ مَا يُفْعَلُ بِي
In it is my lying place, and my sleeping, and loneliness occupies my place. The family members have gone from me, and they are certain of the separation from me. They will not be hoping up to the end of times. There isn’t anyone of them comforting me in my loneliness nor carry a (single) sin from my sins, and all have been distracted from me and have left me alone in my grave, and I am a companion to myself. No one from the people can see me what is being done with me!
فَإِنْ تَكُ رَبِّي رَاضِياً عَنِّي فَطُوبَى ثُمَّ طُوبَى لِي وَ إِنْ تَكُنِ الْأُخْرَى فَيَا حَسْرَتَى وَ يَا نَدَامَتَا عَلَى مَا فَرَّطْتُ فِي جَنْبِ رَبِّي
So, if my Lord-azwj happens to be Pleased with me, then beatitude, then beatitude is for me, and if He-azwj happens to be other (than Pleased), and O my regret, and O my remorse upon what I have missed regarding the Side of my Lord-azwj!
وَ كَيْفَ أَذْكُرُ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ ثُمَّ لَا تَدْمَعُ لَهُ عَيْنِي وَ لَا يَفْزَعُ لِذِكْرِهِ قَلْبِي وَ لَا تُرْعَدُ لَهُ فَرَائِصِي وَ لَا أَحْمِلُ عَلَى ثِقَلِهِ نَفْسِي وَ لَا أَقْصُرُ عَلَى هَوَايَ وَ شَهَوَاتِي مَغْرُورٌ فِي دَارِ غُرُورٍ قَدْ خِفْتُ أَنْ لَا يَكُونَ هَذَا الصِّدْقُ مِنِّي فَأَشْكُو إِلَيْكَ يَا رَبِّ قَسْوَةَ قَلْبِي وَ تَقْصِيرِي وَ إِبْطَائِي وَ قِلَّةَ شُكْرِ رَبِّي
And how can I mention this matter, then my eyes do not shed tears for it, nor does my heart panic to its mention, nor do my limbs tremble for it, nor can I endure its load upon myself, nor cut short upon my whims and my lustful desires! Deceived in the house of deception! I had feared that this truthfulness would not be from me, so I complain to You-azwj, O Lord-azwj, of the hardness of my heart, and my deficiency, and my delaying, and lack of my thanks, my Lord-azwj!
رَبِّ جَعَلْتَ لِي جَوَارِحَ لِاسْتِبْهَامِ النِّعَمِ مِنْكَ يَحِقُّ بِي لَكَ الشُّكْرُ عَلَى جَوَارِحِي وَ أَعْضَائِي وَ أَوْصَالِي بِالَّذِي يَحِقُّ لَكَ عَلَيْهَا مِنَ الْعِبَادَةِ بِخُشُوعِ نَفْسِي وَ بَصَرِي وَ جَمِيعِ أَرْكَانِي
Lord-azwj! You-azwj have made for me limbs for appreciating the bounties from you-azwj proving with me to be thankful to You-azwj upon my limbs, and my body parts, and my joints, with that which is Deserving for You-azwj upon it from the servants, by the fearfulness of my soul, and my sight, and entirety of my faculties!
فَبِهِنَّ عَصَيْتُكَ رَبِّي وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ ذَلِكَ جَزَاءَكَ وَ لَا شُكْرَكَ مِنِّي وَ قَدْ خِفْتُ أَنْ أَكُونَ قَدْ أَوْبَقْتُ نَفْسِي وَ اسْتَهْلَكْتُهَا بِجُرْمِي فَاسْتَوْجَبْتُ الْعُقُوبَةَ مِنْكَ لَيْسَ دُونَكَ أَحَدٌ يَأْوِينِي وَ لَا يُطِيقُ مَلْجَئِي وَ لَا مِنْ عُقُوبَتِكَ يُنْجِينِي وَ لَا يَغْفِرُ ذَنْباً مِنْ ذُنُوبِي وَ كُلٌّ قَدْ شُغِلَ بِنَفْسِهِ عَنِّي
With these I have disobeyed You-azwj my Lord-azwj, and that cannot be reward for You-azwj nor appreciation from me for You-azwj, and I am fearing that I might have crushed my soul and destroyed it with my crimes, so I have been obligated the Punishment from You-azwj! There isn’t anyone besides You-azwj who can shelter me, nor endure sheltering me, nor can he rescue me from Your-azwj Punishment, from forgive any sins from my sins, and every one is pre-occupied with himself away from me!
بَارَزْتُكَ بِسَوْءَتِي وَ بَاشَرْتُ الْخَطَايَا وَ أَنْتَ تَرَانِي فِي سِرِّي مِنْهَا وَ عَلَانِيَتِي وَ أَظْهَرْتُ لَكَ مَا أَخْفَيْتُ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَاسْتَتَرْتُ مِنْ ذُنُوبِي وَ لَا يَرَوْنِي فَيَعِيبُونِي اسْتِحْيَاءً مِنْهُمْ وَ لَمْ أَسْتَحْيِكَ
I have duelled You-azwj with my evil deeds, and have embraced the sins, and You-azwj have Seen me in my secrecy from it and my openness, and I have revealed to You-azwj what I have hidden from the people. Thus, I seek Your-azwj Concealment of my sins and they have not seen me, so they would fault me! I am embarrassed from them and I was not embarrassed from You-azwj!
إِلَهِي قَدْ أَنِسْتُ إِلَى نَفْسِي وَ قَذَفَتْنِي فِي الْمَهَالِكِ شَهَوَاتِي وَ تَعَاطَتْ مَا تَعَاطَتْ وَ طَاوَعَتْهَا فِيمَا مَضَى مِنْ عُمُرِي وَ لَا أَجِدُهَا تُطِيعُنِي أَدْعُوهَا إِلَى رُشْدِهَا فَتَأْبَى أَنْ تُطِيعَنِي وَ أَشْكُو إِلَيْكَ رَبِّ مَا أَشْكُو لِتُصْرِخَنِي وَ تَسْتَنْقِذَنِي
My God-azwj! I had forgotten my souls and my lustful desires have thrown me into the destruction, and I obeyed (it) what I obeyed, and I have obeyed in it what has passed from my life, and I cannot find it obeying me. I call to its rightful guidance, but it refuses to obey me, and I complain to You-azwj, Lord-azwj, of what I have complained, to Respond to my cry and Save me!’
ثُمَّ تَسْأَلُ حَاجَتَكَ.
Then ask your-ra need!’’[247]
أَقُولُ وَجَدْتُ بِخَطِّ الشَّيْخِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْجُبَعِيِّ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ الشَّهِيدُ ابْنُ مَكِّيٍّ قَدَّسَ اللَّهُ رُوحَهُ نَقَلْتُ مِنْ خَطِّ مَغْرِبِيٍّ حَدَّثَ مُعَافَى بْنُ الْمُتَوَكِّلِ عَنِ الْإِسْكَنْدَرَانِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ ثِقَةٍ
I am saying, ‘I found in the handwriting of the Sheykh Muhammad Bin Ali Al-Jubaie, may Allah‑azwj Mercy him. He said, ‘The Sheykh Al-Shaheed Ibn Makky, may Allah-azwj Sanctify his soul, said, ‘I have copied from the handwriting of Maghriby narrated by Muafa Bin Al-Mutawakkil, from Al-Askandarany, from Abdullah Bin Al-Mubarak, from a trusted one,
أَنَّ عَلِيّاً ع لَمَّا حَضَرَتْهُ الْوَفَاةُ قَالَ لِلْحَسَنِ ابْنِهِ ع أُعَلِّمُكَ شَيْئاً أَصْلُهُ مِنْ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ عَلَّمَنِيهِ النَّبِيُّ ص فَإِذَا أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَدْعُوَ اللَّهَ بِهِ فَادْعُ بِهِ بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ أَوْ بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الْعَصْرِ ثُمَّ سَمِّ مَا أَرَدْتَ مِنْ حَوَائِجِكَ
‘Ali-asws, when the expiry presented to him-asws, he-asws said to his-asws son-asws Al-Hassan-asws: ‘I‑asws Shall teach you-asws something, its origin is from the Book of Allah-azwj. The Prophet-saww had taught it. Whenever you-asws want to supplicate to Allah-azwj with it, supplicated with it after the morning Salat, or after Al-Asr Salat, then specify from your needs what you want.
وَ اعْلَمْ أَنَّكَ إِذَا ابْتَدَأْتَ بِهِ وَكَّلَ اللَّهُ بِكَ أَلْفَ مَلَكٍ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ لَكَ وَ أَعْطَى كُلَّ مَلَكٍ قُوَّةَ أَلْفِ مَلَكٍ فِي سُرْعَةِ الِاسْتِغْفَارِ وَ يَبْنِي لَكَ أَلْفَ قَصْرٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ
And know that when you-asws have begun with it, Allah-azwj will Allocate a thousand Angels with you-asws seeking Forgiveness for you-asws, and each Angel would be Given the strength of a thousand Angels in quickness of seeking the Forgiveness, and He-azwj will Build a thousand castles for you-asws in the Paradise!
وَ عِشْتَ مَا عِشْتَ فِي الدُّنْيَا مُنَعَّماً وَ لَا يُصِيبُكَ فِيهَا قَتَرٌ وَ لَا خَلَّةٌ وَ لَا تَسْأَلُ أَحَداً مِنَ الدُّنْيَا كَائِناً مَا كَانَ إِلَّا قَضَى لَكَ
And for as long as you-asws live in the world, you-asws will a bountiful life neither (financial) constriction nor (physical) injury will hit you, and you will not ask anyone from the world, whatever it may be, except it will be fulfilled for you!
قُلْ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ وَ لَا حَوْلَ وَ لَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ
Say: ‘Glory be to Allah-azwj, and the Praise is for Allah-azwj, and there is no god except Allah-azwj, and Allah-azwj is Greatest, and there is neither might nor strength except with Allah-azwj!
فَسُبْحانَ اللَّهِ حِينَ تُمْسُونَ وَ حِينَ تُصْبِحُونَ وَ لَهُ الْحَمْدُ فِي السَّماواتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ وَ عَشِيًّا وَ حِينَ تُظْهِرُونَ يُخْرِجُ الْحَيَّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ وَ يُخْرِجُ الْمَيِّتَ مِنَ الْحَيِّ وَ يُحْيِ الْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِها وَ كَذلِكَ تُخْرَجُونَ
Therefore, Glorify Allah when you come up to the evening and when you come up to the morning [30:17] And for Him is the Praise in the skies and the earth, and at sunset and when you come up to midday [30:18] He Extracts the living from the dead and Extracts the dead from the living, and Revives the earth after its death, and like that you would be coming out [30:19].
سُبْحانَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ الْعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ وَ سَلامٌ عَلَى الْمُرْسَلِينَ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعالَمِينَ
Glorious is your Lord, the Lord of Might, from what they are ascribing [37:180] And greetings be upon the Rasools [37:181] And the Praise is for Allah, Lord of the Worlds [37:182].

يَا رَبِّ مِثْلَهُ يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّومُ مِثْلَهُ يَا بَدِيعَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ مِثْلَهُ يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَ الْإِكْرَامِ مِثْلَهُ يَا حَنَّانُ يَا مَنَّانُ مِثْلَهُ

O Allah-azwj! Send Salawaat upon Muhammad-saww and Progeny-asws of Muhammad-saww! (ten times)’, and ask your need’’.[248]
