In the book �Fee Ziyaarat wa al-Adiyyah� it is written that Sayed Ibn Taaoos narrates in �Misbaah al-Zaaer� that if anybody wants to perform Ziyaarat of any infallible Imam (a.s.) on deputation of all believers or any particular group, then he should determine to perform ziyaarat in his deputation and then perform ziyaarat for that Imam (a.s.). After that perform two rak�at prayer for ziyaarat and than say:
|
..O Allah! I have visited this (place of) ziyaarat and prayed two unit�[4] |
allaahumma innee zurto haazehiz zeyaarata wa sallayto haataynir rak-a�tayne� |
اَللّٰہُمَّ اِنِّیْ زُرْتُ ہٰذِہِ الزِّیَارَۃَ وَ صَلَّیْتُ ہَاتَیْنِ الرَّكْعَتَیْنِ. |
In the same book it has been narrated:
If anybody wants to offer prayer of ziyaarat on deputation of any particular person then after determining the ziyaarat, recite the following in deputation of that person:
|
.Peace be on you, O friend of Allah from so and so. So intercede for him with your Lord and reward me for it � |
assalaamo a�layka yaa waliyyal laahe min folaan ibne folaanin ataytoka zaaeran a�nho fasfa� lahu i�nda rabbeka waa jurnee a�laa zaaleka |
اَلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا وَلِيَّ اللهِ مِنْ فُلَانِ بْنِ فُلَانٍ اَتَيْتُكَ زَآئِرًا عَنْهُ فَاشْفَعْ لَهٗ عَنْدَ رَبِّكَ وَ اْجُرْنِیْ عَلٰی ذٰلِكَ |
Then offer two units prayer of ziyaarat in his deputation, then say:
|
.O Allah! I have prayed for You and bowed for You and prostrated for You�[5] |
ALLAAHUMMA LAKA SALLAYTO WA LAKA RAKA�TO WA LAKA SAJADTO� |
اَللّٰهُمَّ لَكَ صَلَّيْتُ وَ لَكَ رَكَعْتُ وَ لَكَ سَجَدْتُ.. |
In the same book it has been mentioned:If anybody is on deputation from the beginning of the journey and want to perform short ziyaarat then he should intend to perform ziyaarat from any of the particular ziyaarat (زِيَارَتِ مَخْصُوْصَة) on behalf of that person. Then offer two units prayer of ziyaarat and then recite this supplication:
|
اO Allah! whatever afflicted me of fatigue, discomfort, starving or exhaustion, give the reward to so and so for it�[6] |
allaahumma maa asaabanee min ta-a�bin aw nasabin aw sagabin aw loghoobin faa-jurni folaan abna folaanin a�layhe� |
َللّٰہُمَّ مَا اَصَابَنِیْ مِنْ تَعَبٍ اَوْ نَصَبٍ اَوْ سَغَبٍ اَوْ لُغُوْبٍ فَاْجُرْ فُلَانَ بْنَ فُلَانٍ عَلَیْہِ... |
