Sayyed ibn Tawus reports the following supplication in Iqbal Amaal for the Night of Ghadir:
Ghadeer night
اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ دَعَوْتَنَا إِلَى سَبِيلِ طَاعَتِكَ وَ طَاعَةِ نَبِيِّكَ وَ وَصِيِّهِ وَ عِتْرَتِهِ
allahumma innaka da-‘awtana ila sabeeli ta’atika wa ta’ati nabiyyika wa wasiyyihi wa ‘itratihi
O” my God! You invited us to the path of obeying You, Your Prophet, his Trustee and his household
دُعَاءً لَهُ نُورٌ وَ ضِيَاءٌ وَ بَهْجَةٌ وَ اسْتِنَارٌ
du’aa-an lahu noorun wad hiya-un wa bahjatun wa-stinaar
– an invitation filled with light, illumination, joy and brightness.
فَدَعَانَا نَبِيُّكَ لِوَصِيِّهِ يَوْمَ غَدِيرِ خُمٍّ
fa-da’aana nabiyyuka liwasiyyihi yawma ghadeeri khummin
Then Your Prophet of Mercy invited us to follow his Trustee (Imam Ali) on the Day of Ghadir Khum
فَوَفَّقْتَنَا لِلْإِصَابَةِ وَ سَدَّدْتَنَا لِلْإِجَابَةِ لِدُعَائِهِ
fa-waffaqtana lilisaabati wa saddad-tana lil ijaabati li-du’aaihi
and You granted us success in choosing the correct path and helped us accept his invitation.
فَأَنَبْنَا إِلَيْكَ بِالْإِنَابَةِ وَ أَسْلَمْنَا لِنَبِيِّكَ قُلُوبَنَا
fa-anaba ilayka bil-inaabati wa aslamna linabiyyika quloobana
Thus we turned back to You and submitted our hearts to Your Prophet,
وَ لِوَصِيِّهِ نُفُوسَنَا وَ لِمَا دَعَوْتَنَا إِلَيْهِ عُقُولَنَا فَتَمَّ لَنَا نُورُكَ
wa liwasiyyihi nufoosana wa lima da-‘awtana ilayhi ‘uqoolana fatamma lana nooruka
and our souls to his Trustee and our intellects to what You invited us to.

O’ Guider of the deviated! Please perfect Your Light for us.

shukran lillahi
Thanks be to Allah.
Whoever does this aamal is similar to those who were present there and pledged allegiance to the Prophet of God and Ali. They will have the same rank as that of the honest ones who acknowledged God and His Prophet with their love for their Master on that day, and they will be like those who were martyred with the Prophet of God, the Commander of the Faithful (Ali), Al-Hassan and Al-Hussein. They will be like the noble ones who were in the tent of the Riser (ajtfs)1
from the Progeny of the Prophet and under his flag.
2 Raka' Salaah -Iqbal Aamal
It is recommended to do Ghusl and offer a two unit prayer half an hour before midday. At each unit, one should recite
Surah al-Fatihah once, Surah al-Tawhid ten times, Ayah al-Kursi ten times, and Surah al-Qadr ten times.
The reward of practicing this act is equal, in the sight of Almighty Allah, to the rewards of one hundred thousand times of Hajj and one hundred thousand times of `Umrah. Almighty Allah will also grant all the worldly and religious needs of the performer with easiness and good health.
After completion of the prayer recite the following dua:
رَبَّنا إِنَّنا سَمِعْنا مُنادِياً يُنادِي لِلْإِيمانِ أَنْ آمِنُوا بِرَبِّكُمْ فَآمَنَّا
Our Lord! we have heard the call of one calling (Us) to Faith, 'Believe ye in the Lord,' and we have believed.
رَبَّنا فَاغْفِرْ لَنا ذُنُوبَنا وَ كَفِّرْ عَنَّا سَيِّئاتِنا وَ تَوَفَّنا مَعَ الْأَبْرارِ
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins, blot out from us our iniquities, and take to Yourself our souls in the company of the righteous
رَبَّنا وَ آتِنا ما وَعَدْتَنا عَلى رُسُلِكَ وَ لا تُخْزِنا يَوْمَ الْقِيامَةِ إِنَّكَ لا تُخْلِفُ الْمِيعادَ
Our Lord! Grant us what You didst promise unto us through Your apostles, and save us from shame on the Day of Judgment: For You never break Your promise.
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أُشْهِدُكَ وَ كَفَى بِكَ شَهِيداً
O' my God! I take You as witness. You suffice as a witness for me
وَ أُشْهِدُ مَلَائِكَتَكَ وَ حَمَلَةَ عَرْشِكَ وَ سُكَّانَ سَمَاوَاتِكَ وَ أَرْضِكَ
I take Your angels, the carriers of Your Throne, the controllers of Your heavens and earth as witnesses
بِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ الْمَعْبُودُ الَّذِي لَيْسَ مِنْ لَدُنْ عَرْشِكَ إِلَى قَرَارِ أَرْضِكَ
that You are God and there are no Gods but You
مَعْبُودٌ يُعْبَدُ سِوَاكَ إِلَّا بَاطِلٌ مُضْمَحِلٌّ غَيْرَ وَجْهِكَ الْكَرِيمِ
You are the one besides whose Noble Face none is worshipped!
لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ الْمَعْبُودُ لَا مَعْبُودَ سِوَاكَ تَعَالَيْتَ عَمَّا يَقُولُ الظَّالِمُونَ عُلُوّاً كَبِيراً
There is no God but You! O' He who is Worshipped and there is no one else to worship but You. You are Sublime and You are high indeed are You exalted above what the evil-doers say! "Exalted and Great (beyond measure)!"
وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً عَبْدُكَ وَ رَسُولُكَ
And I bear witness that Muhammad is Your Servant and Your Prophet.
وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ عَلِيّاً أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ وَلِيُّهُمْ وَ مَوْلَاهُمْ وَ مَوْلَايَ
I witness that Ali is the Commander of the Faithful. He is their friend, and master and he is my master.
رَبَّنَا إِنَّنَا سَمِعْنَا النِّدَاءَ وَ صَدَّقْنَا الْمُنَادِيَ رَسُولَكَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ
O' our Lord! We heard the call and acknowledge the caller who is Your Prophet (God's blessings be upon him and his family).
إِذْ نَادَى نِدَاءً عَنْكَ بِالَّذِي أَمَرْتَهُ أَنْ يُبَلِّغَ عَنْكَ مَا أَنْزَلْتَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ مُوَالاةِ وَلِيِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
He called based on Your Order and declared the mastery of the Commander of the Faithful.
وَ حَذَّرْتُهُ وَ أَنْذَرْتَهُ إِنْ لَمْ يَبْلُغْ أَنْ تَسْخَطَ عَلَيْهِ
about which You had admonished him that You would be angry with him if he does not deliver this message
وَ أَنَّهُ إِذَا بَلَّغَ رِسَالَتَكَ [رِسَالاتِكَ] عَصَمْتَهُ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَنَادَى مُبَلِّغاً وَحْيَكَ وَ رِسَالاتِكَ
and that You will protect him from the people if he does. So he delivered this message and declared,
أَلَا مَنْ كُنْتُ مَوْلَاهُ فَعَلِيٌّ مَوْلَاهُ وَ مَنْ كُنْتُ وَلِيَّهُ فَعَلِيٌّ وَلِيُّهُ وَ مَنْ كُنْتُ نَبِيَّهُ فَعَلِيٌّ أَمِيرُهُ
"Whoever I am the Master of, Ali is the Master of. Whoever I am the Guardian of, Ali is the Guardian of! Whoever I am the Prophet of, Ali is the Commander of!"
رَبَّنَا قَدْ أَجَبْنَا دَاعِيَكَ النَّذِيرَ الْمُنْذِرَ مُحَمَّداً عَبْدَكَ الَّذِي أَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِ
O our Lord! We positively respond to the call of Muhammad - the conveyor of good tidings, the warner, Your servant whom You blessed

O' our Lord! We believe and follow our master, our guardian, our guide, the one who invites us and invites the people
وَ صِرَاطَكَ السَّوِيَّ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ وَ مَحَجَّتَكَ الْبَيْضَاءَ وَ سَبِيلَكَ الدَّاعِيَ إِلَيْكَ عَلَى بَصِيرَةٍ هُوَ وَ مَنِ اتَّبَعَهُ
and in Your Straight Path, Your Bright Path through which he and his followers call us to You
وَ سُبْحانَ اللَّهِ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ بِوَلَايَتِهِ وَ بِأَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ وَ بِاتِّخَاذِ الْوَلَائِجِ مِنْ دُونِهِ
Exalted is Allah far above the things they associate with Him! Some doubt his Mastery and Order of their Lord by finding associates other than him
فَاشْهَدْ يَا إِلَهِي أَنَّ الْإِمَامَ الْهَادِيَ الْمُرْشِدَ الرَّشِيدَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ صَلَوَاتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
O' my God! Please bear witness that Ali ibn Abi Talib (God's blessing be upon him) is the Divine Leader – the guide, the guider and the guided

Muhammad is Your Servant and Prophet. And Ali is the Commander of the Faithful. You established confessing to His Mastery as the perfection of belief in Your Oneness

O Allah, by Your kindness I hope for Your mercy
وَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ أَرْجُو رِضْوَانَكَ

And accept from me every good I have done
لَكَ فِي اللَّيْلِ وَ النَّهَارِ مُنْذُ خَلَقْتَنِي
For You in the night and the day since You created me
وَ ارْفَعْهُ لِي عِنْدَكَ فِي الرَّفِيعِ الْأَعْلَى
And raise it for me with You in the highest place
وَ أَعْطِنِي عَلَيْهِ الثَّوَابَ الْكَثِيرَ
And grant me abundant reward for it
بِرَحْمَتِكَ إِنَّكَ جَوَادٌ لَا تَبْخَلُ
By Your mercy, for You are Generous and do not withhold
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَصْبَحْتُ مُتَوَكِّلًا عَلَيْكَ
O Allah, indeed I have started my day relying upon You
فَاكْفِنِي وَ أَصْبَحْتُ فَقِيراً إِلَيْكَ فَأَغْنِنِي
So suffice me, and I have started my day poor to You, so enrich me
وَ أَصْبَحْتُ لَا أَعْرِفُ رَبّاً غَيْرَكَ

مُعْتَرِفاً لَكَ بِالْعُبُودِيَّةِ
Confessing to You my servitude
وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ
And I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, alone without partner
إِلَهاً وَاحِداً أَحَداً صَمَداً لَمْ يَتَّخِذْ صاحِبَةً وَ لا وَلَداً
A god who is one, indivisible, eternal, who did not take a consort or a child
وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً عَبْدُهُ وَ رَسُولُهُ
And that Muhammad is His servant and His messenger
أَرْسَلَهُ بِالْهُدى وَ دِينِ الْحَقِّ
He sent him with guidance and the religion of truth
لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَ لَوْ كَرِهَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ
To make it prevail over all religion, even if the polytheists dislike it
فَبَلَّغَ رِسَالاتِهِ وَ نَصَحَ لِأُمَّتِهِ
So he conveyed His messages and advised his nation
وَ جَاهَدَ فِي اللَّهِ حَقَّ جِهَادِهِ
And strove in the way of Allah as is due
وَ عَبَدَهُ حَتَّى أَتَاهُ الْيَقِينُ
And worshiped Him until certainty came to him
صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ عَلَى آلِهِ وَ سَلَّمَ
May Allah bless him and his family and grant them peace
وَ أَشْهَدُ أَنَّ السَّاعَةَ آتِيَةٌ لا رَيْبَ فِيها
And I bear witness that the Hour is coming, there is no doubt about it
وَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ يَبْعَثُ مَنْ فِي الْقُبُورِ
And that Allah will resurrect those in the graves
وَ أَنَّ الْجَنَّةَ حَقٌّ وَ النَّارَ حَقٌّ
And that Paradise is true and the Fire is true
And the resurrection is true
وَ إِنِّي أُومِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَ بِرَسُولِهِ
And I believe in Allah and His messenger
صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ عَلَى آلِهِ وَ سَلَّمَ
May Allah bless him and his family and grant them peace
وَ بِمَلائِكَتِهِ وَ كُتُبِهِ وَ رُسُلِهِ
And in His angels, His books, and His messengers
لا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِنْ رُسُلِهِ
We do not differentiate between any of His messengers
اللَّهُمَّ فَاكْتُبْ لِي هَذِهِ الشَّهَادَةَ عِنْدَكَ
O Allah, write this testimony for me with You
وَ لَقِّنِّيهَا عِنْدَ حَاجَتِي إِلَيْهَا
And make me recite it when I need it
And give me life upon it
And resurrect me upon it
And gather me upon it
وَ اجْزِنِي جَزَاءَ مَنْ لَقِيَكَ بِهَا مُخْلِصاً غَيْرَ شَاكٍّ فِيهَا
And reward me as You reward those who meet You with it, sincere and not doubting
وَ لَا مُرْتَدٍّ عَنْهَا وَ لَا مُبَدِّلٍ لَهَا
And not turning away from it, and not altering it
آمِينَ رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ
Ameen, Lord of the worlds
وَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلَى آلِهِ الطَّيِّبِينَ الطَّاهِرِينَ الْأَخْيَارِ
May Allah bless Muhammad and his pure and good family
And grant them much peace
سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ اللَّهُ أَكْبَرُ
Glory be to Allah, and praise be to Allah, and there is no god but Allah, and Allah is the Greatest
وَ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ غَفَّارُ الذُّنُوبِ وَ أَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ
And I seek forgiveness from Allah, who there is no god but He, the Forgiver of sins, and I repent to Him
وَ أَسْأَلُهُ أَنْ يَتُوبَ عَلَيَّ
And I ask Him to accept my repentance
وَ لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْعَظِيمِ

It is recommended to congratulate the brethren-in-faith on this day by saying:
اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَنَا مِنَ ٱلْمُتَمَسِّكِينَ
alhamdu lillahi alladhi ja`alana min almutamassikina
Praise be to Allah Who has blessed us to be among those who cling and hold
بِوِلاَيَةِ امِيرِ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَٱلائِمَّةِ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلسَّلاَمُ
biwilayati amiri almu'minina wal'a'immati `alayhim alssalamu
to the divinely commissioned leadership and authority of Amir al- Mu'minin and all the Imams, peace be upon them all.
It is also recommended to say the following:
اَلْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ٱلَّذِي اكْرَمَنَا بِهٰذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ
alhamdu lillahi alladhi akramana bihadha alyawmi
All praise be to Allah Who has honored us with this day
وَجَعَلَنَا مِنَ ٱلْمُوفِينَ بِعَهْدِهِ إِلَيْنَا
wa ja`alana min almufina bi`ahdihi ilayna
and included us with those who have fulfilled their promise to Him
وَميثَاقِهِ ٱلَّذِي وَاثَقَنَا بِهِ
wa mithaqihi alladhi wathaqana bihi
and their covenant made with Him;
مِنْ وِلاَيَةِ وُلاَةِ امْرِهِ
min wilayati wulati amrihi
that is the loyalty to His representatives
walquwwami biqistihi
and the establishers of His justice.
وَلَمْ يَجْعَلْنَا مِنَ ٱلْجَاحِدينَ
wa lam yaj`alna min aljahidina
He has not made us of the deniers
وَٱلْمُكَذِّبينَ بِيَوْمِ ٱلدِّينَ
walmukadhdhibina biyawmi alddini
and rejecters of the Judgment Day.
The merit of the Eid al-Ghadir Day is too great to be cited. On this day, the deeds of the Shi`ah are admitted and their grievances are relieved. On this day, Prophet Moses (`a) overcame the sorcerers, the fire in which Prophet Abraham (`a) was thrown was made by Almighty Allah comfort and peace, Prophet Moses (`a) appointed Yushua ibn Nun as his successor, Prophet Solomon (`a) declared openly before his people that Asif ibn Barkhiya would be his successor, and the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his famiy) united as brothers his companions; therefore, the believers are advised to form brotherhood with each other on this day.
This fraternization, as is quoted by Shaykh al-Nuri in Mustadrak al-Wasa'il from the book of Zad al-Firdaws, can be practiced by putting the right hand on the brother-in-faith’s right hand and saying the following:
akhaytuka fillahi
I declare my brotherhood with you for the sake of Allah,
وَصَافَيْتُكَ فِي ٱللَّهِ
wa safaytuka fillahi
I establish friendly terms with you for the sake of Allah,
وَصَافَحْتُكَ فِي ٱللَّهِ
wa safahtuka fillahi
I shake hands with you for the sake of Allah,
وَعَاهَدْتُ ٱللَّهَ وَمَلاَئِكَتَهُ
wa `ahadtu allaha wa mala'ikatahu
I promise Allah, His angels,
wa kutubahu wa rusulahu
His Books, His Messengers,
وَانْبِيَاءَهُ وَٱلائِمَّةَ ٱلْمَعْصُومِينَ
wa anbiya'ahu wala'immata alma`sumina
His Prophets, and the Infallible Imams,
`alayhim alssalamu
peace be upon them,
عَلَىٰ انِّي إِنْ كُنْتُ مِنْ اهْلِ ٱلْجَنَّةِ وَٱلشَّفَاعَةِ
`ala anni in kuntu min ahli aljannati walshshafa`ati
that if I will be an inhabitant of Paradise, allowed to intercede for others,
وَاذِنَ لِي بِانْ ادْخُلَ ٱلْجَنَّةَ
wa udhina li bi'an adkhula aljannata
and if I will be allowed Paradise,
لاَ ادْخُلُهَا إِلاَّ وَانْتَ مَعِي
la adkhuluha illa wa anta ma`i
I will not enter it unless you accompany me therein.
The other party should then agree by saying; qabilt(u)
I agree
Then, the first party says;
اسْقَطْتُ عَنْكَ جَمِيعَ حُقُوقِ ٱلاخُوَّةِ
asqattu `anka jami`a huquqi al'ukhuwwati
I thus release you from all the duties of fraternity
مَا خَلاَ ٱلشَّفَاعَةَ وَٱلدُّعَاءَ وَٱلزِّيَارَةَ
ma khala alshshafa`ata walddu`a'a walzziyarata
except intercession, supplication, and visiting the tombs of the Infallibles.
Similar to this form, al-Muhaddith al-Fayd, in his book of Khulasat al-Adhkar, has mentioned a form of fraternization adding that the other party, or his representative, may accept the fraternization by uttering any statement entailing agreement. Then, each party releases the other from the duties of fraternity except supplication and visiting the tombs of the Infallibles.
