7,Supplication of Ilhaah from Imam Sadiq (a.s.) narrated from Imam Mahdi (a.s.) Abu Naeem Ansari says: I was living on rent in Mecca near the Rukn and a group of men from the tribe Muqassira were also present. Mahmoodi, Allaan e Kulayni, Abu Haysum Dinari and Abu Ja’far Ahwal Hamdani were present amongst them and totally there were about thirty men. I didn’t know of any other pure-hearted Shia from their group except Mohammad bin Qasim Alavi Aqeeqi.
It was the sixth day of Zil Hijjah, 293 Hijrah, when suddenly a young man who was busy in circumambulation wearing two clothes of Ahraam and holding his shoes in his hand, came towards us. His reverence was overwhelming and we stood up involuntarily; all of us stood up from their positions without any exception and greeted him with Salaam. Then he sat down and looked towards his right and left, then said:
Do you people know what Imam Sadiq (A.S.) used to say in the supplication of Il’haah?
We asked: What was it? He said: He used to say:
أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذي بِهِ تَقُومُ السَّماءَ ، وَبِهِ تَقُومُ الْأَرْضَ،
“O’ Allah! Indeed I beseech You in You name with which the sky is upright, and with which the earth is upright

وَبِهِ تُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ الْحَقِّ وَالْباطِلِ ،
, and with which we differentiate between truth and evil,

وَبِهِ تَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ الْمُتَفَرِّقِ ، وَبِهِ تُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ الْمُجْتَمَعِ ،
and with which we join the separated ones, and with which we segregate the joined ones,

وَبِهِ أَحْصَيْتَ عَدَدَ الرِّمالِ ، وَزِنَةَ الْجِبالِ ، وَكَيْلَ الْبِحارِ ،
and with which we count the number of pebbles, and the weight of the mountains, and the measurement of the Oceans,

أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَأَنْ تَجْعَلَ لي مِنْ أَمْري فَرَجاً وَمَخْرَجاً .
to bless Mohammad and his holy Progeny, and to give me relief and a point of exit for my affair.[1]

It is reported in the book ‘Al Junnatul Waqiya’ that Imam Mahdi (A.S.) said: Imam Sadiq (A.S.) used to recite this supplication every morning. [2]

:4. Muhammad ibn Fudayl has reported that he wrote a letter to Imam Muhammad al-Taqi (al-Jawad) (`a) asking him to teach him a supplicatory prayer. The Imam’s answer came: In mornings and evening, you may say the following statement:

اللَّهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱللَّهُ رَبِّيَ
allahu allahu allahu rabbi
Allah, Allah, Allah is my lord,

ٱلرَّحْمٰنُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ
alrrahmanu alrrahimu
the All-beneficent and All-merciful.

لاَ أُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئاً
la ushriku bihi shay'an
I do not admit any one as partner of Him.

You may then submit your requests.
The previous statement is thus an introductory to the beseeching for any request by the permission of Allah the All-exalted.

5.Recite Ayah al-Kursi (2:255), the last (four) verses of Surah al-Hashr (59:21-24), ten verses of Surah al-Saffat (No. 37), and the following holy verses and these statements following them:
«سُبْحَانَ رَبِّكَ رَبِّ ٱلْعِزَّةِ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ.
subhana rabbika rabbi al-`izzati `amma yasifuna
“Glory be to your Lord, the Lord of Honor, above what they describe.

وَسَلاَمٌ عَلَىٰ ٱلْمُرْسَلِينَ.
wa salamun `ala almursalina
And Peace be upon the messengers.

وَٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلْعَالَمِينَ.»
walhamdu lillahi rabbi al`alamina
And all praise is due to Allah the Lord of the worlds.”

«فَسُبْحَانَ ٱللَّهِ حِينَ تُمْسُونَ وَحِينَ تُصْبِحُونَ.
fasubhana allahi hina tumsuna wa hina tusbihuna
“Therefore, glory be to Allah when you enter upon the time of the evening and when you enter upon the time of the morning;

وَلَهُ ٱلْحَمْدُ فِي ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَٱلأَرْضِ
wa lahu alhamdu fi alssamawati wal-ardi
and to Him belongs praise in the heavens and the earth,

وَعَشِيّاً وَحِينَ تُظْهِرُونَ.
wa `ashiyyan wa hina tuzhiruna
and at nightfall and when you are at midday.

يُخْرِجُ ٱلْحَيَّ مِنْ ٱلْمَيِّتِ
yukhriju alhayya min almayyiti
He brings forth the living from the dead

وَيُخْرِجُ ٱلْمَيِّتَ مِنْ ٱلْحَيِّ
wa yukhriju almayyita min alhayyi
and brings forth the dead from the living,

وَيُحْيِي ٱلأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا
wa yuhyi al-arda ba`da mawtiha
and gives life to the earth after its death,

وَكَذٰلِكَ تُخْرَجُونَ.»
wa kadhalika tukhrajuna
and thus shall you be brought forth.”

سُبُّوْحٌ قُدُّوسٌ
subbuhun quddusun
Glorified and Sacred be You;

رَبُّنَا وَرَبُّ ٱلْمَلاَئِكَةِ وَٱلرُّوحِ
rabbuna wa rabbu almala'ikati walrruhi
our Lord and the Lord of the angels and the Holy Spirit.

سَبَقَتْ رَحْمَتُكَ غَضَبَكَ
sabaqat rahmatuka ghadabaka
Your mercy has preceded Your wrath.

لاَ إِلٰهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ
la ilaha illa anta
There is no god save You.

سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي ظَلَمْتُ نَفْسِي فَٱغْفِرْ لِي
subhanaka inni zalamtu nafsi faghfir li
Glory be to You. I have wronged myself; so, forgive me,

وَٱرْحَمْنِي وَتُبْ عَلَيَّ إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ ٱلتَّوَّابُ ٱلرَّحِيمُ
warhamni wa tub `alayya innaka anta alttawwabu alrrahimu
have mercy upon me, and accept my repentance, for You are the Oft-Returning, the All-merciful.


Sahifa Fatima (sa) No. 13- Her supplication in the morning and evening

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

O Living. O eternal, by your mercy, I seek your refuge (so give me refuge)

وَ لَا تَكِلْنِيْ اِلٰى نَفْسِيْ طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ اَبَدًا،
fa-aghisnee wa laa tiklnee elaa nafsee tarfata a’ynin abadan,
and do not leave me to my self even for the blink of the eye, ever.

وَ اَصْلِحْ لِيْ شَاْنِيْ كُلَّهٗ.
asleh leee shaanee kullahu,
And reform all my conditions

بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا اَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِيْنَ
, be-rahmatika ya arhamar rahimeen.
on account of your mercy, o most merciful



7.Sahifa Mahdi ( ajtfs)- Supplication Of The Shi'a, When Our Master Rises (May Our Souls Be Sacrificed For Him)
In tradition, the holy Prophet (peace be on him and on his holy progeny) said: "whoever wanted to be secured from drowning, burnt and theft should recite the following in the morning":
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ ما شاءَ اللَّهُ ، لايَصْرِفُ السُّوءَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ ما شاءَ اللَّهُ ، لايَسُوقُ الْخَيْرَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ ، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ ما شاءَ اللَّهُ ، ما يَكُونُ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ فَمِنَ اللَّهِ . بِسْمِ اللَّهِ ما شاءَ اللَّهُ ، لا حَوْلَ وَلا قُوَّةَ إِلّا بِاللَّهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْعَظيمِ ، بِسْمِ اللَّهِ ما شاءَ اللَّهُ ، وَصَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ الطَّيِّبينَ .
By the name of Allah and His wishes, no one turns away evils except Allah, by the name of Allah and His wishes, no one that do convey goods except Allah, by the name of Allah and His wishes, what ever bounty one possess is from Allah, by the name of Allah and His wishes, there is no power nor strength except that of Allah the Exalted, the Greatest, blessing be on Muhammad and on his pure and holy progeny.
Whoever recites this supplication (3) three times in the morning shall be rescued from drowning, burnt and theft till the evening period, and whoever recite it (3) three times in the evening shall be rescued from burnt, drowning and theft till morning period.
Verily Khidr and Ilyas (peace be on them) usually meet in every occasion and departed each other with these very words.
"This is the slogan of my followers which differentiate them from my enemies when the Qa'im shall be coming out"[1]

8. From Usul Kafi

3296‒22. Abū ‘Alī al-Ash‘arī (‒) Muḥammad ibn ‘Abdi ‘l-Jabbār (‒) Ṣafwān, whoever mentioned it [to him] that Abū ‘Abdillāh (‘a.s.) said [when]: “I said to him: ‘Teach me something that I may recite when the day dawns and when night falls.’ He [‘a.s.] said: ‘Say:
الْحَمْدُ لَِِّ الَّذِي يَفْعَلُ مَا يَشَاءُ وَ لَ يَفْعَلُ مَا يَشَاءُ غَيْرُهُ الَْمْدُ لَِِّ كَمَا يُِبُّ اللَُّ أَنْ يُْمَدَ الَْمْدُ لَِِّ كَمَا هُوَ أَهْلُهُ اللَّهُمَّ أَدْخِلْنِ فِ كُلِّ خَيٍْ أَدْخَلْتَ فِيهِ مَُمَّداً وَ آلَ مَُمَّدٍ وَ أَخْرِجْنِ مِنْ كُلِّ سُوءٍ أَخْرَجْتَ مِنْهُ مَُمَّداً وَ آلَ مَُمَّدٍ وَ صَلَّى اللَُّ عَلَى مَُمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مَُمَّدٍ.
“All praise belongs to Allāh Who does as He wishes and no one other than Him can do as he wishes. All praise be to Allāh, the way Allāh loves to be praised. All praise be to Allāh, just as He is deserving of it. O Allāh, make me enter upon every good that you made Muḥammad and the Household of Muḥammad enter, and take me out of every evil that you took Muḥammad and the Household of Muḥammad out of it, and the blessing of Allāh be upon Muḥammad and the Household of Muḥammad.”’”

3305‒31. From him (‒) Muḥammad ibn ‘Alī (‒) ‘Abdu ‘r-Raḥmān ibn Abī Hāshim (‒) Abū Kḥadījah that Abū ‘Abdillāh (‘a.s.) said: “Verily supplication before sunrise and sunset is an incumbent practice. At dawn and sunset, one should say ten times: If he forgets to do so, he should make up for it just as he makes up for the prayers that he forgets to perform.
لَ إِلَهَ إِلَّ اللَُّ وَحْدَهُ لَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَ لَ ه الَْمْدُ يُْيِي وَ يُِيتُ وَ يُِيتُ وَ يُْيِي وَ هُوَ حَيٌّ لَ يَُوتُ بِيَدِهِ الَْيْرُ وَ هُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَ يءٍ قَدِيرٌ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ وَ تَقُولُ أَعُوذُ بِللَِّ السَّمِيعِ الْعَلِيمِ مِنْ هََزَاتِ الشَّيَاطِينِ وَ أَعُوذُ بِكَ رَبِّ أَنْ يَْضُرُونِ إِنَّ اللََّ هُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ
‘There is no deity but Allāh, alone, without any partner. His is the Kingdom and all praise belongs to Him. He gives life and causes death, He causes death and gives life, and He is ever-living and does not die. In His hand is all good and He has power over all things.’ Then he should say ten times: ‘I seek refuge with Allāh,the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing, from the whisperings of the devils and I seek Your refuge, O Lord, from their presence near me, indeed Allāh is All-Hearing, All-Knowing,’


3311‒37. al-Ḥusayn ibn Muḥammad (‒) Aḥmad ibn Isḥāq (‒) Sa‘dān (‒) Dāwūd ar-Raqqī that Abū ‘Abdillāh (‘a.s.) said: “Never stop reciting the following supplication thrice in the morning and thrice in the evening: Indeed my father (‘a.s.) used to say that this is one of the treasured supplications.”
اللَّهُمَّ اجْعَلْنِ فِ دِرْعِكَ الَْصِينَةِ الَّتِ تَْعَلُ فِيهَا مَنْ تُرِيدُ
‘O Allāh, place me in your protective shield wherein You place those whom You wish.’



9.Prophets Duas 3312‒38. ‘Alī ibn Muḥammad (‒) some of his co-sectarians (‒) Muḥam-mad ibn Sinān (‒) Abū Sa‘īd al-Makārī (‒) Abū Ḥamzah that Abū Ja‘far (‘a.s.) said:
“I asked him: ‘What is meant by the verse wherein Allāh says: And Ibrāhīm who fulfilled [his duty], [Qur., 53:37]?’ He [‘a.s.] said: ‘Some words that he pronounced regularly.’ I asked: ‘What were these words?’ He [‘a.s.] said: ‘Whenever he woke up in the morning he would say the following thrice:And he said the same thing thrice in the evenings.
أَصْبَحْتُ وَ رَبِّ مَْمُودٌ أَصْبَحْتُ لَ أُشْرِكُ بِللَِّ شَيْئاً وَ لَ أَدْعُو مَعَهُ إِلَاً وَ لَ أَتَِّذُ مِنْ دُونِهِ وَلِيّاً
“I awake and my Lord be praised. I awake without ascribing anything as a partner to Allāh, and I do not call upon any other god with Him, nor do I take any guardian besides Him.”


I asked: ‘What did He mean when He said about Nūḥ: Indeed he was a grateful servant [Qur., 17:3]?’ He [‘a.s.] replied: ‘Some words that he pronounced regularly.’ I asked: ‘What were these words?’ He [‘a.s.] said: ‘Whenever he awoke in the morning he would say: He would say this thrice every morning and thrice every evening.’
إِذَا أَصْبَحَ قَالَ أَصْبَحْتُ أُشْهِدُكَ مَا أَصْبَحَتْ بِ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ أَوْ عَافِيَةٍ فِ دِينٍ أَوْ دُنْيَا فَإِنَّهَا مِنْكَ وَحْدَكَ لَ شَرِيكَ لَكَ فَلَكَ الَْمْدُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَ لَكَ الشُّكْرُ كَثِير
“I wake up taking You as my witness that whatever I have awoken with of blessings and wellbeing in my religion or of this world – it is all from You alone, without and partner. So, all praise belongs to You for this, and plentiful gratitude.”

I further asked: ‘What did He mean when He said about Yaḥyā: And a compassion from us and a purity [Qur., 19:13]?’ He [‘a.s.] answered: ‘The compassion of Allāh.’ I said: ‘What was the compassion of Allāh that reached him?’ He [‘a.s.] said: ‘Whenever he would say: “My Lord” Allāh, to Whom belong Might and Majesty would say: “I am here O Yaḥyā!”’”

From Usul Kafi sunset
Ibrāhīm al-Ja‘farī said: “I heard Aba ‘l-Ḥasan (‘a.s.) saying: ‘When night is about to fall and you see the sun in the west, about to set, then say this: This is a security from seven [afflictions], and from the accursed Satan and his offspring.’
أَبَ الَْسَنِ يَقُولُ: إِذَا أَمْسَيْتَ فَنَظَرْتَ إِلَ الشَّمْسِ فِ غُرُوبٍ وَ إِدْبَرٍ فَقُلْ بِسْمِ اللَِّ الرَّحَْنِ الرَّحِيمِ الَْمْدُ لَِِّ الَّذِي لَْ يَتَّخِذْ وَلَداً وَ لَْ يَكُنْ لَهُ شَرِيكٌ فِ الْمُلْكِ الَْمْدُ لَِِّ الَّذِي يَصِفُ وَ لَ يُوصَفُ وَ يَعْلَمُ وَ لَ يُعْلَمُ يَعْلَمُ خَائِنَةَ الَْعْيُِ وَ مَا تُْفِي الصُّدُورُ أَعُوذُ بِوَجْهِ اللَِّ الْكَرِيمِ وَ بِسْمِ اللَِّ الْعَظِيمِ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا ذَرَأَ وَ مَا بَرَأَ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا تَْتَ الثَّرَى وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا ظَهَرَ وَ مَا بَطَنَ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا كَانَ فِ اللَّيْلِ وَ النَّهَارِ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ أَبِ مُرَّةَ وَ مَا وَلَدَ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ الرَّسِيسِ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا وَصَفْتُ وَ مَا لَْ أَصِفْ فَالَْمْدُ لَِِّ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
“In the name of Allāh, the Beneficent, the Merciful. All praise belongs to Allāh, Who never took a son and has no partner in His kingdom. All praise be to Allāh, Who describes and cannot be described, Who knows but cannot be known. He knows the treacherous gazes and what is hidden in the hearts, [Qur., 40:19]. I seek refuge with Allāh’s bountiful countenance and with Allāh’s great name, from the evil in what is created and released, from the evil that is under the earth, from the manifest and hidden evil, from the evil of the night and day, from the evil of Abū Murrah (Satan) and his offspring, from the evil of the beguiling corruptor, and from the evil of what I have described and what I have nor described; for all praise belongs to Allāh, Lord of the worlds.”
