From Bāqiyāt al-Swālhīn of Shaykh Abbas Qummī
This supplication is part of ten supplications given by Imam al-Taqi (a) as dowry to Mamun the Abbasid caliph when he gave his daughter in marriage to the Imam.
Imam told him that he had received the supplications through the pure line of his ancestors. He said the Prophet (s) was told by Jibrail about these supplications; Muhammad, the Almighty Lord conveys His greetings to you and says that He is carrying to You the keys to the treasures of this world and the Next World. He thus advises you to use them as the means to the response to your petitions. Through these confidential prayers, you can attain your desires and succeed in winning your requests. Therefore, do not use them in this-worldly requests rather than the otherworldly requests, lest, you will lessen the value of your otherworldly prizes. These means are ten supplicatory prayers by which you can knock on the doors of your desires and they will be opened before you, and you can ask for things and you will be given access to them.
