Imam Sadiq (a.s) narrates that “one who recites this supplication for 40 mornings; he will be counted amongst the helpers of Imam Mahdi (a.t.f.s)
You may then slap your right thigh with your hand three times and, at each time, say the following:
THE SECOND SUPPLICATION OF AL-AHD
From the authority of Jabir bn Yazid AL-Ja'afi, Abu Ja'afar (peace be on him) said: whoever offer this supplication once in his life time, he will be written among those that are free from slavery and will be written in the register of the Imam (peace be on him), and will be called with his name and that of his father when Imam Al-Mahdi rise up, then the book will be given to him and it shall be said to him, take the covenant book for your covenant with us in the world; that is the saying of Allah which says:
« إِلّا مَنِ اتَّخَذَ عِنْدَ الرَّحْمنِ عَهْداً » {save those who have taken with the All-mercy covenant}[1]
Then offer the following supplication while in a state of purification:
أَللَّهُمَّ يا إِلهَ الْآلِهَةِ ، يا واحِدُ ، يا أَحَدُ ،
يا آخِرَ الْآخِرينَ ، يا قاهِرَ الْقاهِرينَ ،
يا عَلِيُّ يا عَظيمُ ،
أَنْتَ الْعَلِيُّ الْأَعْلى ، عَلَوْتَ فَوْقَ كُلِّ عُلُوٍّ ،
هذا يا سَيِّدي عَهْدي وَأَنْتَ مُنْجِزُ وَعْدي ،
فَصِلْ يا مَوْلايَ عَهْدي ،
وَأَنْجِزْ وَعْدي ، آمَنْتُ بِكَ .

You are the Most Highest of the High,

I believe in You.

Shorther different Invocation after every obligatory daily prayers for the renewal of allegiance for Imam-e-zamaan (a.t.f.s.)
Allama Majlisi in **Bihar Al Anwar, Volume 83, Page 61* narrates from the book, “Al-Ikhteyaar” of Sayyed Ibn Baaqi, that Imam Sadeq (a.s.) said, “One who recites this supplication after every obligatory daily prayers,will certainly get the privilege of seeing Imam-e-Zamaan(a.t.f.s.), in sleep or otherwise.

Mujarridan qanātī, mulabbi d-daʿwat ad-dāʿī fī al-ḥāḍir wa al-bādī,
Holding my lance in my hand, ready to respond to the call of the caller in the present and the future.

وَ اکْحُلْ بَصَرىِْ بِنَظْرَةٍ مِنّىِ اِلَيْهِ،
Wa akḥul baṣrī bi-naẓratin minnī ilayh,
And brighten my eyes with a glance towards him,
وَعَجّلْ فَرَجَهُ وَسَهّلْ مَخْرَجَهُ.
Wa ʿajjil farajahu wa sahhil makhrajahu,
And hasten his relief and ease his emergence.
اََللّهُمّ اشْدُدْ اَزْرَهُ وَقَوَ ظَهْرَهُ وَ طَوَلْ عُمْرَهُ،
Allāhumma ashdd azrahu wa qaww ẓahrahu wa ṭawwil ʿumrahu,
O Allah, strengthen his back and fortify his strength, and prolong his life,
وَ اعْمُرِ اللّهُمّ بِهِ بِلَادَكَ وَاَحْيىِ بِهِ عِبَادَكَ،
Wa aʿmir illāhumma bihi bilādak wa aḥyi bihi ʿibādak,
And through him, revive Your lands and enliven Your servants,
فَاِنّكَ قُلْتَ وَقَوْلُكَ الْحَق: ’’ظَهَرَ الْفَسَادُ فِيْ الْبَرّ وَالْبَحْرِ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ اَيْدِىْ النّاسِ.‘‘
Fa-innaka qulta wa qawluka al-ḥaq: "Ẓahara al-fasād fī al-barri wa al-baḥri bimā kasabat aydī an-nās."
For You have said, and Your word is true: "Corruption has appeared on land and sea because of what the hands of people have earned."
فَاَظْهِرِ اللّهُمّ لَنَا وَلِيّكَ وَابْنَ بِنْتِ نَبِيّكَ،
Fa-aẓhir illāhumma lanā waliyyaka wa ibn binti nabiyyika,
So O Allah, reveal to us Your representative and the son of the daughter of Your Prophet,
الْمُسَمّیٰ بِاسْمِ رَسُولِكَ صَلّی الله عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ،
Al-musammā bismi rasūlika ṣallā Allāhu ʿalayhi wa ālihi,
The one named after Your Messenger, peace be upon him and his family,
حَتّیٰ لَا يَظْفَرَ بِشَیْءٍ مِنَ الْبَاطِلِ اِلاّ مَزّقَهُ وَيُحِق الله الْحَقّ بِكَلِمَاتِهِ وَ يُحَقّقَهُ.
Ḥattā lā yaẓfara bishayʾin mina al-bāṭil illa mazzaqahu wa yuḥiq allāha al-ḥaqq bi-kalimātihi wa yuḥaqqiqah.
So that he may gain nothing from falsehood except that he tears it apart, and Allah establishes the truth through his words and realizes it.
اََللّهُمّ اکْشِفْ هٰذِهِ الْغُمّةَ عَنْ هٰذِهِ اْلأمّةِ بِظُهُوْرِهِ،
Allāhumma ikshif hādhihi al-ghummata ʿan hādhihi al-ummah bi-ẓuhūrih,
O Allah, remove this grief from this nation by his appearance,
اِنّهُمْ يَرَوْنَهُ بَعِيْدًا وَنَرَاهُ قَرِيْبًا،
Innahum yarawnahu baʿīdan wa narāhu qarīban,
Indeed, they see it as distant, but we see it as near,
