In his book of Miqb�s al-Ma��b��, `All�mah al-Majlis� says: Imam al-��diq (`a) is reported through valid chains of authority to have said: There are three hours at night and three others at day at which Allah, the Almighty and Majestic, glorifies Himself. The three hours of days begin when the sun in the east side is in the same rising in the afternoon on the other (west) side; that is at early forenoon. The three hours of night begin at the last third of night up to dawn. Any servant glorifies Allah, the Almighty and Majestic, at these hours with full heart presence, Almighty Allah will settle his needs, and if he is unhappy (because of sinning), I expect that he will be made happy.

Everyday Supplications

Ibn B�bawayh reports Imam al-��diq (`a) to have said: Any servant (of God) that repeats the following supplication seven times everyday, Hellfire will ask Almighty Allah to protect him against it:

Through another valid chain of authority, Imam al-��diq (`a) is also reported to have said: Almighty Allah will certainly forgive any believer who commits forty grand sins every day and night but he then feels sorry for that and prays Almighty Allah to forgive him by saying the following imploration of forgiveness:

Through another valid chain of authority, Imam al-��diq (`a) is also reported to have said: He who repeats the following doxology seven times everyday is considered to have thanked Almighty Allah as it should be for the past and the coming graces:

Through another valid chain of authority, Imam al-��diq (`a) is also reported to have said: He who repeats the following supplication twenty-five times every day, Almighty Allah will record for him rewards as many as the number of all believers that have passed and all believers that will exist up to the Resurrection Day, will erase sins of the same number that he committed, and will raise him ranks of the same number, too:

Through another valid chain of authority, Imam al-��diq (`a) is also reported to have said: He who repeats the following litany ten times every day, Almighty Allah will fend off from him seventy kinds of tribulations the easiest of which is distress (or, according to another narration, he will never be afflicted by poverty):

Al-Kulayn�, al-�abris�, and other scholars have reported through many chains of authority, some of which are acceptable (�asan) and others are valid, that Imam al-��diq (`a) said that the Holy Prophet (�) used to repeat the following two statements seventy times each:

In the books of Kashf al-Ghummah and al-Am�l� by Shaykh al-��s�, it is reported through a valid chain of authority that the Holy Prophet (�) said: He who repeats the following statement one hundred times every day, will be secured against poverty and loneliness in grave, will be granted richness, and the doors to Paradise will be opened before him:

However, this statement has been mentioned in the book of al-Am�l� as follows:

According to the narration mentioned in the books of Thaw�b al-A`m�l and al-Ma��sin, this statement is repeated thirty times.

In his book of al-Da`aw�t, al-Qu�b al-R�wand� reports Imam al-Ri�� (`a) to have quoted the Holy Prophet (�) as saying: He who wishes that his status in the Highest Group excels the status of the warriors for Allah�s sake, must repeat the following words of glorification every day. If he has a request to be granted, it will be granted; if he has an enemy to overcome, his enemy will be suppressed; if he has a debt to be settled, his debt will be settled; if he passes by an agony, he will be relieved; and his words will penetrate the Seven Skies to be written down in the Reserved Tablet (al-law� al-ma�f��):

سُبْحَانَ ٱللَّهِ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلَّهِ	sub��na all�h kam� yanbagh� lill�hi	All glory be to Allah as it should be for Allah.
وَٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلَّهِ	wal�amdu lill�hi kam� yanbagh� lill�hi	All praise be to Allah as it should be for Allah.
وَلاَ إِلٰهَ إِلاََّ ٱللَّهُ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلَّهِ	wa l� il�ha ill� all�hu kam� yanbagh� lill�hi	There is no god save Allah as it should be for Allah.
وَٱللَّهُ اكْبَرُ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلَّهِ	wall�hu akbaru kam� yanbagh� lill�hi	Allah is the Greatest as it should be for Allah.
وَلاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاََّ بِٱللَّهِ	wa l� �awla wa l� quwwata ill� bill�hi	There is neither might nor power except with Allah.
وَصَلَّىٰ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّدٍ ٱلنَّبِيِّ وَعَلَىٰ اهْلِ بَيْتِهِ	wa �all� all�hu `al� Muhammadin alnnabiyyi wa `al� ahli baytih�	May Allah send blessings upon Muhammad, the Prophet, and upon his Household
وَجَمِيعِ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ وَٱلنَّبِيِّينَ	wa jam�`i almursal�na walnnabiyy�na	and all the Messengers and Prophets
حَتَّىٰ يَرْضَىٰ ٱللَّهُ	�att� yar�� all�hu	until Allah is pleased.

Through a valid chain of authority, Imam al-Ri�� (`a) is reported to have related the following story:

A man found a sheet of paper with an inscription and brought it to the Holy Prophet (�) who, once he read it, called out at people to gather for a congregational prayer. As everybody came, the Holy Prophet (�) ascended the minbar (i.e. a pulpit in the mosque) and said: This is the scripture of Yusha`, the son of N�n (Prophet Joshua), the successor of Prophet Moses (`a). The inscription reads the following: In the Name of Allah; the All-beneficent, the All-merciful. Your Lord is certainly Kind and Merciful. The best of Allah�s servants are the pious, pure, and affectionate; while the most wicked of Allah�s servants are so identified that fingers can point at them. He who wishes to have his deeds measured by the fairest balance and to carry out his duties towards the graces that Almighty Allah has bestowed upon him, must say the following litany every day:

سُبْحَانَ ٱللَّهِ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلَّهِ	sub��na all�h kam� yanbagh� lill�hi	All glory be to Allah as it should be for Allah.
وَٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلَّهِ	wal�amdu lill�hi kam� yanbagh� lill�hi	All praise be to Allah as it should be for Allah.
وَلاَ إِلٰهَ إِلاََّ ٱللَّهُ كَمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلَّهِ	wa l� il�ha ill� all�hu kam� yanbagh� lill�hi	There is no god save Allah as it should be for Allah.
وَلاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاََّ بِٱللَّهِ	wa l� �awla wa l� quwwata ill� bill�hi	There is neither might nor power except with Allah.
وَصَلَّىٰ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّدٍ وَاهْلِ بَيْتِهِ ٱلنَّبِيِّ ٱلامِّيِّ	wa �all� all�hu `al� Muhammadin wa ahli baytih� alnnabiyyi al-ummiyyi	May Allah send blessings upon Muhammad, and his Household, the Meccan Prophet,
وَعَلَىٰ جَمِيعِ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ وَٱلنَّبِيِّينَ	wa `al� jam�`i almursal�na walnnabiyy�na	and upon all the Messengers and Prophets
حَتَّىٰ يَرْضَىٰ ٱللَّهُ	�att� yar�� all�hu	until Allah is pleased.

In the book of al-Balad al-Am�n, the Holy Prophet (�) is quoted to have said: He who repeats the following statement ten times every day, will be released from his sins as if he is on the day when his mother gave birth to him, and Almighty Allah will fend off from him seventy categories of tribulation, including lunacy, mycobacterium, leprosy, and paralysis, and Almighty Allah will appoint seventy angels to pray Him to forgive that person:

Imam al-��diq (`a) is reported to have said: He who repeats the following litany one hundred times every day, will not be afflicted by poverty:

Whoever repeats the following statements one hundred times every day, Almighty Allah will prohibit Hellfire to consume his body:

In the book of al-Balad al-Am�n, the Holy Prophet (�) is reported to have said: He who says these words ten times every day, Almighty Allah will forgive four thousand of his grand sins, will save him from the death agonies, the grave pressure, and one hundred of the horrors on the Resurrection Day, will also save him from the evil of Ibl�s (i.e. Satan) and his troops, will help him settle his debts, and will relieve him from his distress, grief, and anguishes:

وَلِكُلِّ هَمٍّ وَغَمٍّ مَا شاءَ ٱللَّهُ	wa likulli hammin wa ghammin m� sh�'a all�hu	and �Only that which Allah wills shall come to pass� to face any grief and angst;
وَلِكُلِّ نِعْمَةٍ ٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ	wa likulli ni`matin al�amdu lill�hi	and �All praise be to Allah� to thank all graces;
وَلِكُلِّ رَخاءٍ ٱلشُّكْرُ لِلَّهِ	wa likulli rakh�'in alshshukru lill�hi	and �All thanks be to Allah� to thank all items of luxury;
وَلِكُلِّ اعْجُوبَةٍ سُبْحانَ ٱللَّه	wa likulli u`j�batin sub��na all�h	and �All glory be to Allah� to express any astonishing matter;
وَلِكُلِّ ذَنْبٍ اسْتَغْفِرُ ٱللَّهَ	wa likulli dhanbin astaghfiru all�ha	and �I implore for Allah�s forgiveness� to face any sin;

وَلِكُلِّ ضِيقٍ حَسْبِيَ ٱللَّهُ	wa likulli ��qin �asbiya all�hu	and �Allah is sufficient to me� to face any distress;
وَلِكُلِّ قَضاءٍ وَقَدَرٍ تَوَكَّلْتُ عَلَىٰ ٱللَّهِ	wa likulli qa��'in wa qadarin tawakkaltu `al� all�h	and �In Allah do I trust� to face any unexpected matter;
وَلِكُلِّ عَدُوٍّ ٱعْتَصَمْتُ بِٱللَّهِ	wa likulli `aduwwin i`ta�amtu bill�hi	and �In Allah do I take shelter� to face any enemy;
وَلِكُلِّ طاعَةٍ وَمَعْصِيَةٍ لاَ حَوْلَ وَلاَ قُوَّةَ إِلاَّ بِٱللَّهِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ ٱلْعَظِيمِ	wa likulli ��`atin wa ma`�iyatin l� �awla wa l� quwwata ill� bill�hi al`aliyyi al`a��mi	and �There is neither might nor power except with Allah, the All-High, the All-great� to face any act of obedience or disobedience.

Al-Kulayn�, Ibn B�bawayh, and al-Barq�, may Allah�s mercy be upon them, have reported through valid chains of authority that Imam al-��diq (`a) said: He who repeats the following statement ten times every day, Almighty Allah will record for him forty-five thousand rewards, erase forty-five thousand of his sins, raise him forty-five thousand ranks towards Paradise, his saying will be shelter against Satan and despotic rulers, and no grand sin will surround him.

According to another narration, �he will be granted the reward of one who has recited the entire Qur'�n twelve times and Almighty Allah will build a house in Paradise for him.

In the narration of Ibn B�bawayh, it is not mentioned that the statement must be repeated ten times:

In the book of Thaw�b al-A`m�l, al-Ma��sin, and al-K�f�, Imam al-��diq (`a) is reported to have quoted the Holy Prophet (�) as saying: He who repeats the following saying fifteen times every day, Almighty Allah will receive him with His Face and will not turn His Face away from him before he enters Paradise:

In the book of al-Ma��sin, the following is reported from the Holy Prophet (�):

To glorify Almighty Allah one hundred times every day is better than offering one hundred camels as presents to the Holy House of Allah:

To praise Almighty Allah one hundred times every day is better than manumitting one hundred slaves:

To profess Almighty Allah being the Greatest (i.e. too great to be described) one hundred times every day is better than offering hundred horses, along with their saddles and reins, in the way of Allah (i.e. in holy wars):

To profess Almighty Allah being the one and only god one hundred times every day is better than the deeds of all peoples, except those who repeat it more than one hundred times:

A worshipper from the children of Israel (i.e. Israelites) asked Allah the Almighty and Majestic, saying, �O Lord! What is my status with You? If it is praiseworthy, then I will try to add up to my good deeds; but if it is blameworthy, I will repent to You before I die.�

Replying to his question, Almighty Allah sent to him one of His angels to tell him that he has no good point with Allah.

The Lord answered, �Whenever you did a good deed, you told people about it so that they would consider you virtuous and mention you reputably. Therefore, no reward will be given for your deeds except the reward that you have accepted for yourself.�

This fact disturbed and aggrieved the man extremely; therefore, Almighty Allah sent the same angel to convey the following message to him: �Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, says to you that you must purchase yourself from Him with alms that you must give every day for each one of your veins.�

The Almighty instructed, �You may repeat the following statement three hundred and sixty times, the number of your veins, every day:

Al-Kulayn� has reported through a valid chain of authority that Imam al-��diq (`a) said: The Holy Prophet (�) used to repeat the following doxology three hundred and sixty times, the number of the veins, each day:

Another tradition reported from Imam al-��diq (`a) holds: He who says the following imploration for Almighty Allah�s forgiveness four hundred times each day for two successive months, will be granted much knowledge or much fortune:

Al-��s� and other scholars have stated that it is a highly recommended tradition to say the following prayer every day:

وَٱنْكَشَفَتْ بِهِ ٱلظُّلُمَاتُ	wankashafat bih� al��ulum�tu	the darkness has been brought to light,
وَصَلُحَ عَلَيْهِ امْرُ ٱلاوَّلِينَ وَٱلآخِرِينَ	wa �alu�a `alayhi amru al-awwal�na wal-�khir�na	and the affairs of the past and the last generations have been set aright,
انْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ	an tu�alliya `al� Muhammadin wa �lih�	to send blessings upon Muhammad and his Household
وَانْ تُصْلِحَ لِي شَانِي كُلَّهُ	wa an tu�li�a l� sha'n� kullah�	and set aright all of my affairs.

It is also reported that whoever repeats the following litany seven times every day, Almighty Allah will suffice him from the troubles of his two abodes:

It has been also reported that whoever says the following words of glorification every day for a whole year, will not die before he sees (in dream) his place in Paradise:
