Duas for Safe Delivery of Child |
DU-A'A 240
Imam Jafar bin Muhammad as Sadiq advised the followers of
Muhammad and Aali Muhammad
to recite the following du-a'a at the time of
birth of a child for a safe and smooth delivery.
|
O my Allah, do not leave me alone (childless), though You are the best of inheritors. Sorrowfulness due to loneliness and sense of abandonment made me fall short of what I should have done to thank You, but (I beseech You to) give me an upright and honest posterity, male and female. On account of them change my loneliness with companionship and let there be ease and comfort instead of desolation, so that I should thank You on the completion of bounty, O the great, the giver of greatness, then keep me continuously in ease and comfort, till I am favoured with Your pleasure, because of my truthfulness in whatever I say, I promise and I do. |

write the following portions
of verses 35 of al Ahqaf, 46 of an Nazi-a't and 35 of Ali Imran on the hide

On the day when they will see what they have been promised, (they will realize) that they had not tarried but an hour of the day. On the day they see it, it will seem as if they had not tarried (in their graves) but a (single) evening, or the following morning. When (Hannah) the wife of Imran said: “My Lord, verily I have vowed to You that whatever is in my womb to be (exclusively) dedicated (to Your service). |

DU-A'A 242
It is written in Tibb al A-immah that Imam Jafar bin
Muhammad as Sadiq said that write verse 30 of Anbiya
and verses 37 to 44 and
51 of Ya sin on one side of a piece of paper and verse 35 of Ahqaf and verse
46 of Nazi-at
on the other side, wrap a strip of paper lightly around it,
and then fasten it on the middle of a woman
who has entered her month of
delivery. When the child is born do not leave it on for an instant.
|
Have not those who disbelieve seen that the heavens and the earth were closed up, and that We clove them asunder? Out of water We made all things alive. Will they not then believe? There is a sign in the night for them. We draw off the day from it, an lo! They are in darkness. The sun travels to an appointed place. This is the decree of the mighty, the all-knowing (Lord). And the moon-We have determined stages for it till it returns like the old (dried) branch of a palm-tree. It is not permitted to the sun that it should overtake the moon, nor can the night outsrip the day; each in an orbit, they float. A sign unto them is that We bear their offspring in the laden ark; And We have created for them of the like thereof whereon they ride. If We will, We can drown them, then there shall be no one to help them, nor shall they be rescued. Save by way of mercy from Us (to enable them) to enjoy themselves for a while. When the trumpet is blown, then lo! From their graves unto their Lord they shall be hastening. |

On the day when they will see what they have been promised, (they will realize) that they had not tarried but an hour of the day. A (clear) deliverance (of the message this is). So none will be destroyed save those who transgress. On the day they see it, it will seem as if they had not tarried (in their graves) but a (single) evening, or the following morning. |

The birth-pangs led her to the trunk of a palm-tree. “Would that I had died before this”, she said, “and had been a thing forgotten, lost in oblivion!” Then (a voice) called her from beneath her: “Do not grieve; verily your Lord has made a river flow right below you. Shake the trunk of the palm-tree towards yourself, it will drop fresh and ripe dates on you. O my Lord, do not leave me alone (childless), though You are the best of inheritors. |

Verily, with every difficulty there is ease, Verily with every difficulty there is ease. O people, fear your Lord. Verily, the quake of the hour is a terrible thing! The day you shall behold it, every suckling mother shall forsake her suckling, and every pregnant female shall drop her load. Your shall behold the people (as) drunken, yet they will not be drunken, but the wrath of Allah will be terrible.

Indeed there is a lesson in their narratives for men of understanding. It is not a forged tale but a confirmation of what went before it, and a detailed exposition of all things, and a guide and a mercy for those who believe. |
