Sheikh Kafa’ami (may Allah have mercy on him) quoted it in “Al-Misbaah” from our master, the proof (peace be on him).His (a.t.f.s.) Supplication for the Destitute, the Sick, the Living and the Dead
يَا مُدَبِّرَ الْاُمُوْرِ،
يَا بَاعِثَ مَنْ فِي الْقُبُوْرِ،
صَلِّ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَاٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ،
وَاجْعَلْ لِيْ وَلِشِيْعَتِيْ مِنَ الضِّيْقِ فَرَجًا،
وَمِنَ الْهَمِّ مَخْرَجًا،
وَاَوْسِعْ لَنَا الْمَنْهَجَ،
وَاَطْلِقْ لَنَا مِنْ عِنْدِكَ مَا يُفَرِّجُ،
وَافْعَلْ بِنَا مَا اَنْتَ اَهْلُهُ يَاكَرِيْمُ۔

Another supplication from our master the proof (peace be on him) to satisfy an important need. It was quoted in “Qisas Al-Anbiyaa” the stories of the Prophets.His (a.t.f.s.) Supplication for Overpowering Straitening Affairs
يَا مَنْ اِذَا تَضَايَقَتِ الْاُمُوْرُ فَتَحَ لَنَا بَابًا لَمْ تَذْهَبْ اِلَيْهِ الْاَوْهَامُ،
فَصَلِّ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَاٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ،

In “Tuhfatu Ridawiyah” he said: Allamah Taqi, Sayyid Mirza Hasan bn Sayyid Mirza Ali Agha Shirazi (may Allah glorifies his secret) told me of the following supplication, he mentioned that it was from the proof (may Allah hasten his relief) and some pious scholars has also narrated it. He (may Allah have mercy on him) said: you recite it after every day compulsory prayers and at any other time, it suffices you in your important requests and makes you reach your goal.

This preservation of our master Al-Qa’im (peace be on him) was narrated by Sayyid Al-Ajal in Mahju Dda’waah and Sheikh Al-Kafa’ami in Misbaah:
بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
يَا مَالِكَ الرِّقَابِ،
وَهَازِمَ الْاَحْزَابِ،
يَا مُفَتِّحَ الْاَبْوَابِ،
يَا مُسَبِّبَ الْاَسْبَابِ،
سَبِّبْ لَنَا سَبَبًا لَانَسْتَطِيْعُ لَهُ طَلَبًا،
بِحَقِّ لَاۤ اِلٰهَ اِلَّا اللهُ،
مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُوْلُ اللهِ صَلَوَاتُ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ اَجْمَعِيْنَ۔

parties, the Opener of the closed doors, O’ the causer of
all effects, cause an un-demanded ways for us by the sake
of there is no god except Allah and Muhammad, the
Messenger of Allah, peace be on him and on all his
progeny.1
Sayyid Ali bn Taaus in Mahju Dda’waah said: we have narrated through the chain of Muhammad bn Ahmad bn Ibrahim Al-Ja’afi popularly known as Saaban. The occultation of Imam Al-Mahdi peace be on him was mentioned there in, I said: what shall Your followers do? He said:
Be aware of supplication and expectation of relief, verily knowledge shall appear to you, then you give praise to God and hold fast with what appeared to you I said: with what shall we supplicates? He said: recite the following:
وَعَرَّفْتَنِيْ رَسُوْلَكَ،
وَعَرَّفْتَنِيْ مَلَاۤئِكَتَكَ وَعَرَّفْتَنِيْ نَبِيَّكَ،
وَعَرَّفْتَنِيْ وُلَاةَ اَمْرِكَ۔ اَللّٰهُمَّ لَا اٰخِذَ اِلَّا مَا اَعْطَيْتَ،
وَلَا وَاقِيَ اِلَّا مَا وَقَيْتَ۔

Angels to me, You have defined Your Prophets to me
and You have defined to me the leaders of Your affairs.

given, no one is rescued except those You have preserved.
O’ Allah! Don’ t deprive me from the rank of Your
intimate friends, and don’t change my mind after being
guided. O’ Allah! Guide me to the guardianship of those
you have make incumbent for me to follow.1
SUPPLICATION APPROPRIATE FOR THE TIME OF OCCULTATION
The honorable Sayyid Ali bin Taoos (R.A.) states: I witness someone in my dream who taught me a supplication with regard to the time of occultation. It should be recited as follows:
يا مَنْ فَضَّلَ آلَ إِبْراهيمَ وَآلَ إِسْرائيلَ عَلَى الْعالَمينَ بِاخْتِيارِهِ ، وَأَظْهَرَ في مَلَكُوتِ السَّماواتِ وَالْأَرْضِ عِزَّةَ اقْتِدارِهِ ، وَأَوْدَعَ مُحَمَّداً صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَأَهْلَ بَيْتِهِ غَرائِبَ أَسْرارِهِ ، [صَلِّ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ] ، وَاجْعَلْني مِنْ أَعْوانِ حُجَّتِكَ عَلى عِبادِكَ وَأَنْصارِهِ .
[1] Muhaj ud Da’waat: p. 396; Biharul Anwaar: 95/336; An Najmus Saqib: 2/482
SUPPLICATION FOR RESCUE FROM AFFLICTIONS
It was written in the book”Silaahul Mu’mineen”.
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحيمِ
أَللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، وَعَجِّلْ فَرَجَهُمْ ، ( يا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمينَ هفت مرتبه تكرار شود).
أَللَّهُمَّ عُمَّ أَعْداءَ آلِ نَبِيِّكَ وَظالِميهِمْ وَأَعْداءَ شيعَتِهِمْ ، وَأَعْداءَ مَواليهِمْ بِالشَّرِّ عَمّاً ، وَطُمَّهُمْ بِالشَّرِّ طَمّاً ، وَاطْرُقْهُمْ بِلَيْلَةٍ لا اُخْتَ لَها ، وَساعَةٍ لامَنْجى مِنْها ، وَانْتَقِمْ مِنْهُمُ انْتِقاماً عاجِلاً ، وَأَحْرِقْ قُلُوبَهُمْ بِنارِ غَضَبِكَ .
أَللَّهُمَّ شَتِّتْ شَمْلَهُمْ ، وَفَرِّقْ جَمْعَهُمْ، وَقَلِّبْ تَدْبيرَهُمْ ، وَنَكِّسْ أَعْلامَهُمْ ، وَخَرِّبْ بُنْيانَهُمْ ، وَقَرِّبْ آجالَهُمْ ، وَأَلْقِ بَأْسَهُمْ بَيْنَهُمْ ، وَاجْعَلْنا مِنْ بَيْنِهِمْ سالِمينَ ، وَخُذْهُمْ أَخْذَ عَزيزٍ مُقْتَدِرٍ .
أَللَّهُمَّ أَلْقِ الْأَوْجاعَ وَالْأَسْقامَ في أَبْدانِهِمْ، وَضَيِّقْ مَسالِكَهُمْ ، وَاسْلُبْهُمْ مَمالِكَهُمْ، وَحَيِّرْهُمْ في سُبُلِهِمْ ، وَاقْطَعْ عَنْهُمُ الْمَدَدَ ، وَانْقُصْ مِنْهُمُ الْعَدَدَ.
أَللَّهُمَّ وَاحْفَظْ مَوالِيَ آلِ بَيْتِ نَبِيِّكَ عَلَيْهِمُ السَّلامُ مِنْ شُرُورِهِمْ ، وَسَلِّمْهُمْ مِنْ مَكْرِهِمْ ، وَخَدْعِهِمْ وَضُرِّهِمْ ، وَانْصُرْهُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ بِنَصْرِكَ ، وَاجْمَعْ كَلِمَتَهُمْ ، وَأَلِّفْ جَمْعَهُمْ ، وَدَبِّرْ أَمْرَهُمْ . وَعَرِّفْهُمْ ما يَجْهَلُونَ ، وَعَلِّمْهُمْ ما لايَعْلَمُونَ ، وَبَصِّرْهُمْ ما لايُبْصِرُونَ ، وَأَعْلِ كَلِمَتَهُمْ ، وَاجْعَلْهَا الْعُلْيا ، وَاجْعَلْ كَلِمَةَ الْأَعْداءِ السُّفْلى .
O’ Allah encompass the enemies of the families of Your Prophet and those that oppressed them and the enemies of their followers and enemies of those that gave allegiance to them with entire evil, and overflow them with evil, and silent them with unbearable night and with unsaved time and quickly retaliate from them and burn their heart with the wrath of Your Hell fire.
O’ Allah! Scattered their unity, disunite their gatherings, change their plans, turn their banners upside down, destroy their homes and make their life span very near, let their afflictions between themselves,
and let us be free from them and held them with intensive responsibility.
O’ Allah! Impose sufferings and illness on their body and tighten their means of sustenance and deprive them of their properties, and distract them of their ways and cut Your assistance from them and reduce their population.
O’ Allah! Protect the followers of the household of Your Prophet peace be on them from their evils, and free them from their plots, deceits and afflictions. Help them with Your Grace and unite their words and their gatherings, administer their affairs and teach them what is unknown to them, let them see what is unseen to them, elevate their words and make it very exalted and make very low the words of the enemies.[1]

SUPPLICATION OF IMAM JAWAD (A.S.)FOR THE END OF OPPRESSION FROM THE WORLD
The honorable Sayyid Ali bin Taoos narrates this supplication from our Master, Imam Jawad (A.S.), in his book ‘Muhaj ud Da’waat’ in the following manner:
أَللَّهُمَّ إِنَّ ظُلْمَ عِبادِكَ قَدْ تَمَكَّنَ في بِلادِكَ حَتَّى أَماتَ الْعَدْلَ ، وَقَطَعَ السُّبُلَ، وَمَحَقَ الْحَقَّ، وَأَبْطَلَ الصِّدْقَ، وَأَخْفَى الْبِرَّ، وَأَظْهَرَ الشَّرَّ ، وَأَخْمَدَ التَّقْوى ، وَأَزالَ الْهُدى ، وَأَزاحَ الْخَيْرَ ، وَأَثْبَتَ الضَّيْرَ ، وَأَنْمَى الْفَسادَ ، وَقَوَّى الْعِنادَ ، وَبَسَطَ الْجَوْرَ ، وَعَدَى الطَّوْرَ . أَللَّهُمَّ يا رَبِّ لايَكْشِفُ ذلِكَ إِلّا سُلْطانُكَ ، وَلا يُجيرُ مِنْهُ إِلّاَ امْتِنانُكَ.
أَللَّهُمَّ رَبِّ فَابْتُرِ الظُّلْمَ ، وَبُثَّ حِبالَ الْغَشْمِ ، وَأَخْمِدْ سُوقَ الْمُنْكَرِ ، وَأَعِزَّ مَنْ عَنْهُ يَنْزَجِرُ ، وَاحْصُدْ شافَةَ أَهْلِ الْجَوْرِ ، وَأَلْبِسْهُمُ الْحَوْرَ بَعْدَ الْكَوْرِ ، وَعَجِّلِ اللَّهُمَّ إِلَيْهِمُ الْبَياتَ ، وَأَنْزِلْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْمُثَلاتِ ، وَأَمِتْ حَياةَ الْمُنْكَرِ لِيُؤْمَنَ الْمَخُوفُ ، وَيَسْكُنَ الْمَلْهُوفُ ، وَيَشْبَعَ الْجائِعُ ، وَيَحْفَظَ الضَّائِعُ ، وَيَأْوَى الطَّريدُ ، وَيَعُودَ الشَّريدُ ، وَيُغْنَى الْفَقيرُ ، وَيُجارَ الْمُسْتَجيرُ ، وَيُوَقَّرَ الْكَبيرُ ، وَيُرْحَمَ الصَّغيرُ ، وَيُعَزَّ الْمَظْلُومُ ، وَيُذَلَّ الظَّالِمُ ، وَيُفَرَّجَ الْمَغْمُومُ ، وَتَنْفَرِجَ الْغَمَّاءُ ، وَتَسْكُنَ الدَّهْماءُ ، وَيَمُوتَ الْإِخْتِلافُ ، وَيَعْلُوَ الْعِلْمُ ، وَيَشْمَلَ السِّلْمُ ، وَيُجْمَعَ الشَّتاتُ ، وَيَقْوَى الْإيمانُ ، وَيُتْلَى الْقُرْآنُ ، إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الدَّيَّانُ الْمُنْعِمُ الْمَنَّانُ .

SUPPLICATION FOR PROTECTION FROM DAJJAL’S EVIL
It has been narrated from Ma’aaz bin Jabal that he said: One day, the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H.) sent me to Abdullah bin Salaam while his holiness was surrounded by a group of his companions. Abullah bin Salaam came near the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H.), his holiness said:
“O’ Abdullah, inform me about those ten words which were taught by Allah (S.W.T.) to Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him) on the day when he was to be thrown in fire. Have you found those words written in your Torah?”
Abdullah said: “O’ Messenger of Allah, my parents be sacrificed upon you, has anything about those ten words revealed upon you? Certainly I have seen the reward of reciting those them in Torah but haven’t come across those ten supplications which have the ‘Ism- e-Aazam’ of Allah in each one of them.”
Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “Did Allah teach those words to Prophet Musa (A.S.)?”
Abdullah said: “Allah did not teach them to anyone except Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him).”
Holy Prophet said: “What have you seen regarding its reward in Torah”?
Abdullah said: O’ Allah’s Messenger, who has the power to attain such a reward”? I saw in Torah that it was written:
There is no slave upon whom the Lord has bestowed His grace by placing these words in his heart but that his eyes have been illuminated and certainty has been placed in his heart, and his chest is broadened for the acceptance of faith, and a light is allotted for him which rises from where he sits towards the sky; and the Lord praises him twice a day before the angels and grants wisdom in his tongue and blesses him with the memorization of the book, even though he might not be greedy for this reward; and he makes him a jurisprudent and scholar of the religion, and places his love in the hearts of His slaves, and protects him from the punishments of the grave, and the schemes of Dajjal, and from the great fear of the Day of Resurrection.
And God may resurrect him among the group of martyrs; honor him and bless him with the dignity and greatness which is has been bestowed by Him upon his Prophets, and such a person will remain fearless on the day when all humans will be filled with fear, and they will not be sorrowful on the day when all the people will be sorrowful, and his name will be written as ‘Siddeeq’ (the truthful) near Allah, and he will resurrect on the Day of Resurrection while his heart will be peaceful and satisfied, and he will be under the shadow of the dignified men along with Prophet Ibrahim (A.S.).
By the grace of this supplication, a worshipper will be bestowed with whatever he desires from God; and if he adjures God, God will act upon his vow, and he will be situated on the majestic position (heaven) in the vicinity of the Merciful God, and all the rewards of the martyrs from the beginning of world’s creation will be written for him.
Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H.) asked: “What is meant by the majestic position?”
Abdullah says: “It means the Eden gardens and it is the place of the Almighty God and His Holy Threshold”.
Ibn e Salaam said: “O Messenger of Allah, teach us that supplication and be gracious upon us just as God has bestowed His grace upon you”.
Prophet (P.B.U.H.) said: “Prostrate before the God Almighty”.
Ma’aaz bin Jabal said: All of them prostrated, and when they lifted their heads from prostration, the holy Prophet said: “recite:
يا اَللَّهُ يا اَللَّهُ يا اَللَّهُ ، أَنْتَ الْمَرْهُوبُ مِنْكَ جَميعُ [خَلْقِكَ] ، يا نُورَ النُّورِ ، أَنْتَ الَّذِي احْتَجَبْتَ دُونَ خَلْقِكَ فَلاتُدْرِكُ نُورَكَ نُورٌ ، يا اَللَّهُ يا اَللَّهُ يا اَللَّهُ ، أَنْتَ الرَّفيعُ الَّذِي ارْتَفَعْتَ فَوْقَ عَرْشِكَ مِنْ فَوْقِ سَمائِكَ ، فَلايَصِفُ عَظَمَتَكَ أَحَدٌ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ ، يا نُورَ النُّورِ قَدِ اسْتَنارَ بِنُورِكَ أَهْلُ سَمائِكَ ، وَاسْتَضاءَ بِضَوْئِكَ أَهْلُ أَرْضِكَ .
يا اَللَّهُ يا اَللَّهُ يا اَللَّهُ ، أَنْتَ الَّذي لا إِلهَ غَيْرُكَ ، تَعالَيْتَ عَنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ شَريكٌ ، وَتَعَظَّمْتَ عَنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ وَلَدٌ ، وَتَكَرَّمْتَ عَنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ شَبيهٌ ، وَتَجَبَّرْتَ عَنْ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ ضِدٌّ ، فَأَنْتَ اللَّهُ الْمَحْمُودُ بِكُلِّ لِسانٍ ، وَأَنْتَ الْمَعْبُودُ في كُلِّ مَكانٍ ، وَأَنْتَ الْمَذْكُورُ في كُلِّ أَوانٍ وَزَمانٍ ، يا نُورَ النُّورِ ، كُلُّ نُورٍ خامِدٌ لِنُورِكَ ، يا مَليكَ كُلِّ مَليكٍ ، يَفْنى غَيْرُكَ يا دائِمُ ، كُلُّ حَيٍّ يَمُوتُ غَيْرُكَ .يا اَللَّهُ يا اَللَّهُ يا اَللَّهُ الرَّحْمانُ الرَّحيمُ ، اِرْحَمْني رَحْمَةً تُطْفِئُ بِها غَضَبَكَ ، وَتَكُفُّ بِها عَذابَكَ ، وَتَرْزُقُني بِها سَعادَةً مِنْ عِنْدِكَ ، وَتَحُلُّني بِها دارَكَ الَّتي تَسْكُنُها خِيَرَتُكَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ ، يا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمينَ .
يا مَنْ أَظْهَرَ الْجَميلَ ، وَسَتَرَ الْقَبيحَ ، يا مَنْ لَمْ يُؤاخِذْ بِالْجَريرَةِ ، وَلَمْ يَهْتِكِ السِّتْرَ ، يا عَظيمَ الْعَفْوِ ، يا حَسَنَ التَّجاوُزِ ، يا واسِعَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ ، يا باسِطَ الْيَدَيْنِ بِالرَّحْمَةِ ، يا صاحِبَ كُلِّ نَجْوى ، وَيا مُنْتَهى كُلِّ شَكْوى .
يا كَريمَ الصَّفْحِ ، يا عَظيمَ الْمَنِّ ، يا مُبْتَدِئاً بِالنِّعَمِ قَبْلَ اسْتِحْقاقِها ، يا رَبَّاهُ يا رَبَّاهُ ، وَيا سَيِّداهُ وَيا أَمَلاهُ ، وَيا غايَةَ رَغْبَتاهُ ، أَسْأَلُكَ يا اَللَّهُ يا اَللَّهُ يا اَللَّهُ أَنْ لاتُشَوِّهَ خَلْقي فِي النَّارِ .
Ibn e Salaam asked: “O’ Messenger of Allah, what is the reward of he who recites these verses”?
His holiness said: “Alas! Alas! It is not possible to write down its rewards. If the angles of the seven heavens and earth come together and wish to describe it till the day of Resurrection, they would fail to mention even one part out of the thousand parts of its reward.
Then Prophet (P.B.U.H.) stated numerous rewards and attributes of these words which cannot be mentioned here due to the conciseness of this book and conclude this discussion here. [1]

THE NARRATED SUPPLICATION FROM HIM (peace be on him) FOR RESCUE FROM NARROWNESS AND DIFFICULTIES
It was said in Al-Kalamu Ttayyib: I have seen the hand writing of some of our companions among the pious and trustworthy ones: I heard in Rajab in the year 1093 A.H. from a brother in Islam, the maid of Suduq who has obtained perfection in humanity and holy attributes, he is by name Al-Ameer Ismail bn Husein beek bn ali bn Suleiman Al-Jaabiri Al-Ansari (may Allah brighten his proves) saying: I heard Sheikh Hajj Ali Al-Makki saying: I was afflicted with narrowness and difficulties and I fear the destruction of myself, later I came across a wrapped supplication in my pocket that was not given to me by any one, I was then surprise and became confused, after that I saw a pious man in my dream saying:I have given the supplication to you, so offer it you will be saved from your narrowness and difficulties, though it was not obvious to me who speaks to me in my dream, the scene that increases my surprise. Another time I saw the awaiting proof (peace be on him) and said to me: offer the supplication I have given it to you and you should teach those that are in need of it.
Consequently, I have implemented it several times and have seen a quick acceptance, then the supplication get out of my hand for some times and I seriously regret of its lost by seeking pardon from Allah for my bad deeds, later an unknown person cane to me telling me that the supplication fall from me in certain place, and it did not cross my mind to go to such place, I took my supplication and observe a thanksgiving prostration to Allah, the supplication is as follows:
رَبِّ أَسْئَلُكَ مَدَداً رُوحانِيّاً تَقْوى بِهِ قُوايَ الْكُلِّيَّةُ وَالْجُزْئِيَّةُ ، حَتَّى أَقْهَرَ بِمَبادي نَفْسي كُلَّ نَفْسٍ قاهِرَةٍ ، فَتَنْقَبِضَ لي إِشارَةُ دَقائِقِها ، اِنْقِباضاً تَسْقُطُ بِهِ قُويها ، حَتَّى لايَبْقى فِي الْكَوْنِ ذُو رُوحٍ إِلّا وَنارُ قَهْري قَدْ أَحْرَقَتْ ظُهُورَهُ .
يا شَديدُ ، يا شَديدُ ، يا ذَا الْبَطْشِ الشَّديدِ ، يا قاهِرُ يا قَهَّارُ ، أَسْئَلُكَ بِما أَوْدَعْتَهُ عِزْرائيلَ مِنْ أَسْمائِكَ الْقَهْرِيَّةِ ، فَانْفَعَلَتْ لَهُ النُّفُوسُ بِالْقَهْرِ ، أَنْ تُودِعَني هذَا السِّرَّ في هذِهِ السَّاعَةِ ، حَتَّى اُ لَيِّنَ بِهِ كُلَّ صَعْبٍ ، وَاُذَلِّلَ بِهِ كُلَّ مَنيعٍ ، بِقُوَّتِكَ يا ذَا الْقُوَّةِ الْمَتينِ .
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
O’ my Lord; I requested spiritual auxiliaries from You that shall strengthen my general and sectional power till I subdued with my fundamental self and every despotic souls and depressed all its movement till all its power drops and never allow any despotic on Earth until is burnt with the fire of my subjugation.
O’ the powerful, O’ the powerful, O’ He who possess terrible assault, the one who subdue, O’ He who subdued. I requested from You what You have deposited among Your forcible names that all souls subdued to, to bestowed me with this mysteries at this very time, till all difficulties are made easy and to surmount all impenetrable by Your strength, O’ He who possess substantial strength.
You recite this supplication (3) three times early dawn, if possible (3) three times in the morning and (3) three times in the evening time. If the situation persist the reader should recite the following thirty times:
O’ the Beneficent, O’ the Merciful, O’ the Most Merciful of the merciful, I requested lenience from You which goes through its measures.[1]

SUPPLICATION FOR THE RELIEF ON THE DAY OF HIS REAPPEARANCE
Sheikh No’maani narrates this supplication in his book ‘Al Ghaybah’ from Yunus bin Zibyaan that Imam Sadiq (A.S.) said:
When the eve of Friday arrives, Allah sends an angel towards the Heaven of this world. That blowing the dawn, that angel sits on the Throne situating himself above the ‘Bait ul Ma’moor’. Then he arranges pulpits of light for Prophet Mohammad (peace be upon him), Ali (A.S.), Imam Hasan and Imam Husain (peace be upon them), they ascend the pulpit, then the angles and the prophets and the believers gather around them and the doors of the Heaven opens wide.
When the time of Zuhr arrives, Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) says: “O’ Lord, when will the time of the fulfillment of promises made by You in Quran come?”
(And that promise is the following verse).
Thereafter, the angels and prophets recite the same supplication; then Mohammad, Ali, Hasan and Husain (peace be upon them) go in the state of prostration, and say:
Allah will accept their supplication and the ‘Yaum ul Ma’loom’ is that same day.[2]

It was quoted in Qabsil Misbaah, brief supplication for seeking means through our master, the leader of the time, peace be on him as follows:
O’ Allah! I am seeking from You, by the sake of Your guardian and Your proof, the leader of the time to assist me in all my affairs and prevent me against every thing harmful, oppressors and aggressors, assist me because all my struggles has exhausted, suffice me against all my enemies, anxiety, debt, my descendant and all my families including my brothers and all those that their affairs concerns me, (Amen) the Lord of the worlds.[1]
It was said in “Jannatil Khulud” surely the key and successfulness against the enemies during the days of war and other days and paying off debt is base on seeking means through the leader of the affairs (may our souls be sacrifice for him) with the above mentioned supplication.[2]
[1]- Annajmu Thaqib: 731.
[2]- Jannatul Khulud: 40.
It was related that whoever is affected with grief, distress and trouble should recite the following (70) seventy times:
[1]- Muntakhabul Khutum: 196.
and this 70 times
It was said in Tuhfa Arridawiyah: you should sent blessing to the Prophet (100) one hundred times after the recommended (Nafila) after Magrib prayer, and then you recite the following supplication (70) seventy times.
After that you send (100) one hundred blessing to the Prophet (peace be on him and his holy progeny) and put forward your requests.
Sayyid Allamah Al-wahid mentioned that it was tested for achieving important issues.[1]

Shaheed (may Allah have mercy on him) in his book ”Zikra” said: Ibn Abi Aqeel has chosen this supplication base on what has been narrated from the commander of the faithful (peace be upon him) concerning Qunut:
اَللّٰهُمَّ اِنَّا نَشْكُوْ اِلَيْكَ غَيْبَةَ نَبِيِّنَا وَقِلَّةَ عَدَدِنَا، وَكَثْرَةَ عَدُوِّنَا، وَتَظَاهُرَ الْاَعْدَاۤءِ عَلَيْنَا، وَوُقُوْعَ الْفِتَنِ بِنَا، فَفَرِّجْ ذٰلِكَ اللّٰهُمَّ بِعَدْلٍ تُظْهِرُهُ، وَاِمَامِ حَقٍّ تُعَرِّفُهُ، اِلٰهَ الْحَقِّ اٰمِيْنَ رَبَّ الْعَالَمِيْنَ۔
He said: it gets to me that Imam Sadiq (peace be upon him) use to command his followers to observe this supplication in their Qunut after reciting the words of relief (Faraj).[1]
Sayyid (may Allah have mercy on him) reported it in Mahji Dda’wah and Kafa’ami (may Allah have mercy on him) in Balad Al-Ameen that our master, the leader of the time observes this supplication in his Qunut.
فَاِنَّكَ اللّٰهُمَّ قُلْتَ وَقَوْلُكَ الْحَقُّ «حَتّٰى اِذَا اَخَذَتِ الْاَرْضُ زُخْرُفَهَا وَازَّيَّنَتْ وَظَنَّ اَهْلُهَا اَنَّهُمْ قَادِرُوْنَ عَلَيْهَا اَتَاهَا اَمْرُنَا لَيْلًا اَوْ نَهَارًا فَجَعَلْنَاهُمْ حَصِيْدًا كَاَنْ لَمْ تَغْنَ بِالْاَمْسِ كَذٰلِكَ نُفَصِّلُ الْاٰيَاتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُوْنَ»۔وَقُلْتَ «فَلَمَّا اٰسَفُوْنَا انْتَقَمْنَا مِنْهُمْ»، وَاِنَّ الْغَايَةَ عِنْدَنَا قَدْتَنَاهَتْ، وَاِنَّا لِغَضَبِكَ غَاضِبُوْنَ، وَاِنَّا عَلٰى نَصْرِ الْحَقِّ مُتَعَاصِبُوْنَ، وَاِلٰى وُرُوْدِ اَمْرِكَ مُشْتَاقُوْنَ، وَلِاِنْجَازِ وَعْدِكَ مُرْتَقِبُوْنَ، وَلِحُلُوْلِ وَعِيْدِكَ بِاَعْدَاۤئِكَ مُتَوَقِّعُوْنَ۔اَللّٰهُمَّ فَاْذَنْ بِذٰلِكَ، وَافْتَحْ طُرُقَاتِهِ، وَسَهِّلْ خُرُوْجَهُ، وَوَطِّاْ مَسَالِكَهُ، وَاَشْرِعْ شَرَاۤئِعَهُ، وَاَيِّدْ جُنُوْدَهُ وَاَعْوَانَهُ، وَبَادِرْ بَاْسَكَ الْقَوْمَ الظَّالِمِيْنَ، وَابْسُطْ سَيْفَ نَقِمَتِكَ عَلٰى اَعْدَاۤئِكَ الْمُعَانِدِيْنَ، وَخُذْ بِالثَّارِ، اِنَّكَ جَوَادٌ مَكَّارٌ۔
and You O’ Allah are in ambush for the schemers, You have not let them loose in spite of Your respite for them, only he who relies upon You relaxes in peace, who desires You is benefitting, who intends Your door, O’ Allah, is secured.
O’ Allah, punish them sooner who have oppressed to the final extent, and have continued his infidelity and ingratitude due to his ignorance towards his fate, Your forbearance has resulted in his lust greed for his motives, therefore they have hastened in committing bad deeds against Your friends and devotees, and place their wicked traps on their ways one after the other, and visit their houses and residences with the intention of harming them.
O’ Allah, lift Your punishment from the believers, and send it down upon the transgressors.
O’ Allah, keep Your torment away from those who seek refuge in You, and descend it upon the alternators.
O’ Allah, assist the groups of truth in haste, and destruct the supporters of oppression and tyranny immediately.
O’ Allah, make us fortunate with Your gratitude, and make victory our share, and protect us from the hastening evil, and from evil fate and lust”.[1][1] Muhaj ud Da’waat: p. 82, Al Balad ul Amin: p. 657
Sayyid bn Taaus (may Allah have mercy on him) in his Mahji Dda’wah and Kafa’ami in his Baladul Ameen narrated the second supplication of Imam of the time (peace be upon him) in his Qunut.
وَتَنْزِعُ الْمُلْكَ مِمَّنْ تَشَاۤءُ،
وَتُعِزُّ مَنْ تَشَاۤءُ،
وَتُذِلُّ مَنْ تَشَاۤءُ،
بِيَدِكَ الْخَيْرُ،
اِنَّكَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْ ءٍ قَدِيْرٌ،
يَا مَاجِدُ يَا جَوَادُ،
يَا ذَا الْجَلَالِ وَالْاِكْرَامِ،
يَا بَطَّاشُ يَا ذَا الْبَطْشِ الشَّدِيْدِ،
يَا فَعَّالًا لِمَا يُرِيْدُ،
يَا ذَا الْقُوَّةِ الْمَتِيْنِ،
يَا رَؤُوْفُ يَا رَحِيْمُ،
يَا لَطِيْفُ يَا حَيُّ حِيْنَ لَا حَيَّ۔
اَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْمَخْزُوْنِ الْمَكْنُوْنِ الْحَيِّ الْقَيُّوْمِ،
اَلَّذِي اسْتَاْثَرْتَ بِهِ فِيْ عِلْمِ الْغَيْبِ عِنْدَكَ لَمْ يَطَّلِعْ عَلَيْهِ اَحَدٌ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ،
وَاَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِيْ تُصَوِّرُ بِهِ خَلْقَكَ فِي الْاَرْحَامِ كَيْفَ تَشَاۤءُ،
وَبِهِ تَسُوْقُ اِلَيْهِمْ اَرْزَاقَهُمْ فِيْ اَطْبَاقِ الظُّلُمَاتِ،
مِنْ بَيْنِ الْعُرُوْقِ وَالْعِظَامِ،
وَاَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِيْ اَلَّفْتَ بِهِ بَيْنَ قُلُوْبِ اَوْلِيَاۤئِكَ،
وَاَلَّفْتَ بَيْنَ الثَّلْجِ وَالنَّارِ،
لَا هٰذَا يُذِيْبُ هٰذَا،
وَلَا هٰذَا يُطْفِئُ هٰذَا۔وَاَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِيْ كَوَّنْتَ بِهِ طَعْمَ الْمِيَاهِ،
وَاَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِيْ اَجْرَيْتَ بِهِ الْمَاۤءَ فِي عُرُوْقِ النَّبَاتِ بَيْنَ اَطْبَاقِ الثَّرٰى،
وَسُقْتَ الْمَاۤءَ اِلٰى عُرُوْقِ الْاَشْجَارِ بَيْنَ الصَّخْرَةِ الصَّمَّاۤءِ،
وَاَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِيْ كَوَّنْتَ بِهِ طَعْمَ الثِّمَارِ وَاَلْوَانَهَا،
وَاَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِيْ بِهِ تُبْدِئُ وَتُعِيْدُ۔وَاَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الْفَرْدِ الْوَاحِدِ،
اَلْمُتَفَرِّدِ بِالْوَحْدَانِيَّةِ،
اَلْمُتَوَحِّدِ بِالصَّمَدَانِيَّةِ،
وَاَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِيْ فَجَّرْتَ بِهِ الْمَاۤءَ مِنَ الصَّخْرَةِ الصَّمَّاۤءِ،
وَسُقْتَهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ شِئْتَ۔
وَاَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِيْ خَلَقْتَ بِهِ خَلْقَكَ،
وَرَزَقْتَهُمْ كَيْفَ شِئْتَ وَكَيْفَ شَاۤؤُوْا،
يَا مَنْ لَايُغَيِّرُهُ الْاَيَّامُ وَاللَّيَالِيْ،
اَدْعُوْكَ بِمَادَعَاكَ بِهِ نُوْحٌ حِيْنَ نَادَاكَ فَاَنْجَيْتَهُ وَمَنْ مَعَهُ،
وَاَهْلَكْتَ قَوْمَهُ،
وَاَدْعُوْكَ بِمَا دَعَاكَ بِهِ اِبْرَاهِيْمُ خَلِيْلُكَ حِيْنَ نَادَاكَ فَاَنْجَيْتَهُ وَجَعَلْتَ النَّارَ عَلَيْهِ بَرْدًا وَسَلَامًا،
وَاَدْعُوْكَ بِمَا دَعَاكَ بِهِ مُوْسٰى كَلِيْمُكَ حِيْنَ نَادَاكَ فَفَلَقْتَ لَهُ الْبَحْرَ فَاَنْجَيْتَهُ وَبَنٰي اِسْرَاۤئِيْلَ،
وَاَغْرَقْتَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَقَوْمَهُ فِي الْيَمِّ۔
وَاَدْعُوْكَ بِمَا دَعَاكَ بِهِ عِيْسٰى رُوْحُكَ حِيْنَ نَادَاكَ فَنَجَّيْتَهُ مِنْ اَعْدَاۤئِهِ وَاِلَيْكَ رَفَعْتَهُ،
وَاَدْعُوْكَ بِمَا دَعَاكَ بِهِ حَبِيْبُكَ وَصَفِيُّكَ وَنَبِيُّكَ مُحَمَّدٌ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهِ فَاسْتَجَبْتَ لَهُ،
وَمِنَ الْاَحْزَابِ نَجَّيْتَهُ،
وَعَلٰى اَعْدَاۤئِكَ نَصَرْتَهُ۔
وَاَسْاَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِيْ اِذَا دُعِيْتَ بِهِ اَجَبْتَ،
يَا مَنْ لَهُ الْخَلْقُ وَالْاَمْرُ،
يَا مَنْ اَحَاطَ بِكُلِّ شَيْ ءٍ عِلْمًا،
يَا مَنْ اَحْصٰى كُلَّ شَيْءٍ عَدَدًا،
يَا مَنْ لَاتُغَيِّرُهُ الْاَيَّامُ وَاللَّيَالِيْ،
وَلَاتَتَشَابَهُ عَلَيْهِ الْاَصْوَاتُ،
وَلَاتَخْفٰى عَلَيْهِ اللُّغَاتُ،
وَلَايُبْرِمُهُ اِلْحَاحُ الْمُلِحِّيْنَ۔
اَسْاَلُكَ اَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَاٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ خِيَرَتِكَ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ،
فَصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ بِاَفْضَلِ صَلَوَاتِكَ،
وَصَلِّ عَلٰى جَمِيْعِ النَّبِيِّيْنَ وَالْمُرْسَلِيْنَ،
اَلَّذِيْنَ بَلَّغُوْا عَنْكَ الْهُدٰى،
وَاَعْقَدُوْا لَكَ الْمَوَاثِيْقَ بِالطَّاعَةِ،
وَصَلِّ عَلٰى عِبَادِكَ الصَّالِحِيْنَ۔
يَا مَنْ لَايُخْلِفُ الْمِيْعَادَ اَنْجِزْ لِيْ مَا وَعَدْتَنِيْ،
وَاجْمَعْ لِيْ اَصْحَابِيْ وَصَبِّرْهُمْ،
وَانْصُرْنِيْ عَلٰى اَعْدَاۤئِكَ وَاَعْدَاۤءِ رَسُوْلِكَ،
وَلَاتُخَيِّبْ دَعْوَتِيْ،
فَاِنِّيْ عَبْدُكَ،
اِبْنُ عَبْدِكَ،
اِبْنُ اَمَتِكَ،
اَسِيْرٌ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ،
سَيِّدِيْ اَنْتَ الَّذِيْ مَنَنْتَ عَلَيَّ بِهٰذَا الْمَقَامِ وَتَفَضَّلْتَ بِهِ عَلَيَّ دُوْنَ كَثِيْرٍ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ،
اَسْاَلُكَ اَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَاٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَاَنْ تُنْجِزَ لِيْ مَا وَعَدْتَنِيْ،
اِنَّكَ اَنْتَ الصَّادِقُ وَلَاتُخْلِفُ الْمِيْعَادَ،
وَاَنْتَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْ ءٍ قَدِيْرٌ۔
