Falāḥ (الْفَلَاحِ, فلاح)

The Success (in the Hereafter)

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ قَالَ قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) الدُّعَاءُ مَفَاتِيحُ النَّجَاحِ وَ مَقَالِيدُ الْفَلَاحِ وَ خَيْرُ الدُّعَاءِ مَا صَدَرَ عَنْ صَدْرٍ نَقِيٍّ وَ قَلْبٍ تَقِيٍّ وَ فِي الْمُنَاجَاةِ سَبَبُ النَّجَاةِ وَ بِالْإِخْلَاصِ يَكُونُ الْخَلَاصُ فَإِذَا اشْتَدَّ الْفَزَعُ فَإِلَى اللَّهِ الْمَفْزَعُ

And by this chain,

He-asws said: ‘The supplications are the keys to achievement and collars of ‘الْفَلَاحِ’ the success, and the best of the supplication is what is generated by a clean chest and a fearful heart’.[1]
