IN THE PROSTRATION OF GRATIFICATION

Sheikh ut Taaefa, Toosi (R.A.) mentions in his book ‘Misbah ul Mutahajjid’ that: offer the prostration of gratitude and recite that which Imam Kazim (A.S.) has written for Abdullah bin Jundab; recite the following supplication thrice in the state of prostration:

أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي اُشْهِدُكَ ، وَاُشْهِدُ مَلائِكَتَكَ وَأَنْبِياءَكَ وَرُسُلَكَ وَجَميعَ خَلْقِكَ بِأَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ رَبّي ، وَالْإِسْلامُ ديني ، وَمُحَمَّدٌ نَبِيّي ، وَعَلِيٌّ وَلِيّي ، وَالْحَسَنُ وَالْحُسَيْنُ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ وَجَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ وَمُوسَى بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُوسى وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ وَالْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ وَالْخَلَفُ الصَّالِحُ صَلَواتُكَ عَلَيْهِمْ أَئِمَّتي ، بِهِمْ أَتَوَلَّى ، وَمِنْ عَدُوِّهِمْ أَتَبَرَّءُ . أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي اُنْشِدُكَ دَمَ الْمَظْلُومِ .

“O’ Allah, I hold You witness, and I hold all Your angels and Prophets and Messengers and the entire creation witness on the fact that certainly You are Allah, My Lord, and my religion is Islam, and Mohammad is my Prophet, and Ali is my Guardian, and Hasan, Husain, Ali bn Husain, Mohamad bin Ali, Jafar bin Mohammad, Musa bin Jafar, Ali bin Musa, Mohammad bin Ali, Ali bin Mohammad, Hasan bin Ali, and their noble successor, peace be upon them, my Imams, I express my devotion towards them, and my dislike towards their enemies. O’ Allah, I adjure You for the blood of the oppressed.

Then repeat three times:

أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي اُنْشِدُكَ بِوَأْيِكَ عَلى نَفْسِكَ لِأَوْلِيائِكَ ، لَتُظْهِرَنَّهُمْ عَلى عَدُوِّكَ وَعَدُوِّهِمْ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى الْمُسْتَحْفَظينَ مِنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ .

O’ Allah, I adjure You by the promise You made to Your friends that You will make them victorious over Your enemies and their enemies, I adjure You to bless Mohammad and the protectors from his household.

And repeat three times:

أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي اُنْشِدُكَ بِإيوائِكَ عَلى نَفْسِكَ لِأَعْدائِكَ ، لَتُهْلِكَنَّهُمْ وَلَتُخْزِيَنَّهُمْ بَأَيْديهِمْ وَأَيْدِى الْمُؤْمِنينَ ، أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلَى الْمُسْتَحْفَظينَ مِنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ

  O’ Allah, indeed I adjure You by the pledge You made to yourself regarding Your enemies that You will destroy them, and will humiliate them by their own hands and by the hands of the believers, I adjure You to bless Mohammad and the Protectors from Mohammad’s household.

And repeat three times:

أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي أَسْأَلُكَ الْيُسْرَ بَعْدَ الْعُسْرِ

O’ Allah, I ask You for ease and relief after difficulties and hardships. ^[1]
