ANOTHER SUPPLICATION FROM IMAM MAHDI (A.S.) FOR RESCUE FROM DIFFICULTIES AND PROTECTION FROM BANDITS
Late Ayatullah Sheikh Ali Akbar Nahavandi writes: “Sheikh Ali Akbar Tehrani, who lives in Mashhad, narrated an incident for us saying:
The pious cleric, Sheikh Mohammad Taqi Turbati, who was one of the great scholars and clerics of Islamic Ethics and a student of Allama Mirza Habibullah Rashti and had is permission of jurisprudence, said: One of my religious god-fearing students, who were among the Sayyids of the city of Turbat, narrated for me that:
“On returning from the Ziyarat of the holy shrines, I left ‘Khaniqeen’ along with a student and went walking behind a caravan towards the ‘Qasr e Shireen’. We were weakened as a result of immense thirst and hunger, and with great difficulty, we managed to reach the caravan. We saw that the caravan was looted by bandits and all their wealth was robbed, their men were injured and were found lying in the desert, their carriers were broken and fallen on the ground.
We moved towards a corner out of fear and went on top of a hill. All of a sudden, we saw a dignified Sayyid standing next to us. He greeted us with Salam, then gave us seven dates of Zahidi and said: eat four dates and give the remaining three to the Sheikh.
When we eat the dates, our thirst vanished. Then he said: Recite this supplication for deliverance from difficulties and protection from the evil of thieves:
أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي أَخافُكَ ، وَأَخافُ مِمَّنْ يَخافُكَ ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِمَّنْ لايَخافُكَ .
O’ Allah, indeed I fear You and fear those who fear You, and I seek refuge in You from those who do not fear You.
Thereafter, we walked a short distance with that honorable Sayyid; suddenly, he indicated towards a place and said: this is your house. When we looked, we found our house situated below that hill. On entering the house, we felt very sleepy out of extreme tiredness. We slept without paying attention to the incident that occurred to us. After waking up, we understood that that noble man was the master of time, Imam Mahdi (A.S.). [1]
