A LETTER TO ALLAH (S.W.T.)
PLACED BETWEEN THE LETTER OF IMAM MAHDI (A.S.)
Late Allama Majlisi (R.A.) writes in his book ‘Bihar ul Anwaar’ that: Write this letter and fold it, then write another letter addressing the Holy Threshold of Imam Mahdi (A.S.), then place that letter and the letter written to Allah between the letter addressed to Imam Mahdi (A.S.). Then cover it with clay and drop it in a well or river.
The text of the letter addressed to Allah will be in the following way:
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحيمِ
إِلَى اللَّهِ سُبْحانَهُ وَتَقَدَّسَتْ أَسْماؤُهُ ، رَبِّ الْأَرْبابِ ، وَقاصِمِ الْجَبابِرَةِ الْعِظامِ ، عالِمِ الْغَيْبِ وَكاشِفِ الضُرِّ ، اَلَّذي سَبَقَ في عِلْمِهِ ما كانَ وَما يَكُونُ .
مِنْ عَبْدِهِ الذَّليلِ الْمِسْكينِ ، اَلَّذِي انْقَطَعَتْ بِهِ الْأَسْبابُ ، وَطالَ عَلَيْهِ الْعَذابُ ، وَهَجَرَهُ الْأَهْلُ ، وَبايَنَهُ الصَّديقُ الْحَميمُ فَبَقِيَ مُرْتَهِناً بِذَنْبِهِ ، قَدْ أَوْبَقَهُ جُرْمُهُ ، وَطَلَبَ النَّجاةَ فَلَمْ يَجِدْ مَلْجَأً وَلا مُلْتَجَأً ، غَيْرَ الْقادِرِ عَلى حَلِّ الْعَقْدِ ، وَمُؤَبِّدِ الْأَبَدِ ، فَفَزَعي إِلَيْهِ وَاعْتِمادي عَلَيْهِ ، وَلا لَجَأَ وَلا مُلْتَجَأَ إِلّا إِلَيْهِ .
أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِعِلْمِكَ الْماضي ، وَبِنُورِكَ الْعَظيمِ ، وَبِوَجْهِكَ الْكَريمِ ، وَبِحُجَّتِكَ الْبالِغَةِ ، أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلى آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ،
وَأَنْ تَأْخُذَ بِيَدي وَتَجْعَلَني مِمَّنْ تَقْبَلُ دَعْوَتَهُ، وَتُقيلُ عَثْرَتَهُ، وَتَكْشِفُ كُرْبَتَهُ، وَتُزيلُ تَرْحَتَهُ وَتَجْعَلُ لَهُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ فَرَجاً وَمَخْرَجاً، وَتَرُدَّ عَنّي بَأْسَ هذَا الظَّالِمِ الْغاشِمِ ، وَبَأْسَ النَّاسِ يا رَبَّ الْمَلائِكَةِ وَالنَّاسِ ، حَسْبي أَنْتَ وَكَفى مَنْ أَنْتَ حَسْبُهُ، يا كاشِفَ الْاُمُورِ الْعِظْامِ، فَإِنَّهُ لا حَوْلَ وَلا قُوَّةَ إِلّا بِكَ.
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
To Allah Almighty, whose names are glorified, the Lord of all lords, the destroyer of all the chief tyrants, the Knower of the unseen and the rescuer from difficulties, He who had the knowledge of what has happened and what will happen from before; from His disgraced and destitute servant, who is disconnected from all means and sources, and entanglements are prolonged for him, who is separated from his family, and is left alone by his dear friends in the cobweb of sins and mistakes, who is devastated by his crimes, who sought deliverance but found no shelter or refuge, who is not capable of solving his difficulty, and has eternalized the everlasting, hence I seek shelter in Him and rely on He save whom there is no shelter or refuge. O’ Allah, indeed I ask You by the means of Your certain knowledge, and Your great Light, and Your beneficent position, and through Your expressive Proof, to bless Mohammad and his household, and to hold my hand and regard me among those whose prayers You accept, and whose mistakes You forgive, whose difficulties You resolve, whose helplessness is ended by You, and for whom You regard relief and exit in his affairs, and rescue me from the evil of this transgressing tyrant, and from the evil of all people, O’ Lord of the Angels and the humans, You are sufficient for me, and You are enough for those whom You suffice, O’ solver of all the great affairs, thus indeed no movement and no Power exists without You.
After this letter, write the Letter of Request addressed to Imam Mahdi
(A.S.) in the following way:
بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحيمِ
تَوَسَّلْتُ بِحُجَّةِ اللَّهِ الْخَلَفِ الصَّالِحِ ، مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبي طالِبٍ ، اَلنَّبَإِ الْعَظيمِ ، وَالصِّراطِ الْمُسْتَقيمِ ، وَالْحَبْلِ الْمَتينِ ، عِصْمَةِ الْمَلْجَإِ ، وَقَسيمِ الْجَنَّةِ وَالنَّارِ .
أَتَوَسَّلُ إِلَيْكَ بِآبائِكَ الطَّاهِرينَ الْخَيِّرينَ الْمُنْتَجَبينَ ، وَاُمَّهاتِكَ الطَّاهِراتِ الْباقِياتِ الصَّالِحاتِ ، اَلَّذينَ ذَكَرَهُمُ اللَّهُ في كِتابِهِ ، فَقالَ عَزَّ مَنْ قائِلٌ « اَلْباقِياتُ الصَّالِحاتُ » ، وَبِجَدِّكَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَخَليلِهِ وَحَبيبِهِ وَخِيَرَتِهِ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ ، أَنْ تَكُونَ وَسيلَتي إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ في كَشْفِ ضُرّي ، وَحَلِّ عَقْدي ، وَفَرَجِ حَسْرَتي ، وَكَشْفِ بَلِيَّتي ، وَتَنْفيسِ تَرْحَتي .
وَبِكهيعص وَبِيس وَالْقُرْآنِ الْحَكيمِ ، وَبِالْكَلِمَةِ الطَّيِّبَةِ ، وَبِمَجارِي الْقُرْآنِ ، وَبِمُسْتَقَرِّ الرَّحْمَةِ ، وَبِجَبَرُوتِ الْعَظَمَةِ ، وَبِاللَّوْحِ الْمَحْفُوظِ ، وَبِحَقيقَةِ الْإيمانِ ، وَقِوامِ الْبُرْهانِ ، وَبِنُورِ النُّورِ ، وَبِمَعْدَنِ النُّورِ ، وَالْحِجابِ الْمَسْتُورِ ، وَالْبَيْتِ الْمَعْمُورِ ، وَبِالسَّبْعِ الْمَثاني ، وَالْقُرْآنِ الْعَظيمِ ، وَفَرائِضِ الْأَحْكامِ ، وَالْمُكَلَّمِ بِالْعِبْرانِيِّ ، وَالْمُتَرْجَمِ بِالْيُونانِيِّ ، وَالْمُناجى بِالسِّرْيانِيِّ ، وَما دارَ فِي الْخَطَراتِ ، وَما لَمْ يُحِطْ بِهِ لِلظُّنُونِ ، مِنْ عِلْمِكَ الْمَخْزُونِ ، وَبِسِرِّكَ الْمَصُونِ ، وَالتَّوْراةِ وَالْإِنْجيلِ وَالزَّبُورِ .
يا ذَا الْجَلالِ وَالْإِكْرامِ صَلِّ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ ، وَخُذْ بِيَدي ، وَفَرِّجْ عَنّي بِأَنْوارِكَ وَأَقْسامِكَ وَكَلِماتِكَ الْبالِغَةِ ، إِنَّكَ جَوادٌ كَريمٌ ، وَحَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكيلُ ، وَلا حَوْلَ وَلا قُوَّةَ إِلّا بِاللَّهِ الْعَلِيِّ الْعَظيمِ ، وَصَلَواتُهُ وَسَلامُهُ عَلى صَفْوَتِهِ مِنْ بَرِيَّتِهِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَذُرِّيَّتِهِ .
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
I seek means through the Proof of Allah, the noble successor, Mohammad bin al-Hasan bin Ali bin Mohammad bin Ali bin Musa bin Jafar bin Mohammad bin Ali bin al-Husain bin Ali bin Abi Talib, the great news, the straight path, the firm rope, the reliable shelter, the divider of the Heaven and Hell. I seek means to you through your purified predecessors, the noblemen, the chosen ones, and your purified mothers, the enduring good deeds, those whom Allah has mentioned in His Book, and said: ‘the enduring good deeds’[1], and through your Prophet, the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him and his family and his friend and his beloved and His chosen ones from the creation, my request is that You become the means towards Allah Almighty for ending my difficulties, and solving my problem, and relieving me from my sorrows, and removing my calamities, and taking away all my helplessness; through the means of کھیعص and یس and the Holy Quran, and the noble words, and through the sources of Quran, and the rest-house of mercy, and the grandness and sublimity, and the protected tablet, and the truth of faith, and the endurance of evidence, and the brightness of light, and the source of light, and the hidden veil, and Bait-ul-Mamoor (the place which is circumambulated by the dwellers of heaven), and through Sab’ul Masani (chapter al-Hamd), and the great Quran, and the obligatory commands, and the speaker of Hebrew, and through that which is spoken in Hebrew, and that which is translated to Greek, and that which is supplicated in Syriac, and that which entered the thoughts, and that which the assumptions cannot overcome, from Your treasured knowledge, and Your Protected Secret, and the Torah, the Gospel and the Psalms. O’ Holder of dignity and honor, bless Mohammad and his household, and hold my hand, and give us relief through Your Lights and Your Vows and Your Evident Words, indeed You are Generous and Beneficent, Allah is sufficient for us and He is the Best Disposer of affairs, and there is no movement or power but through Allah, the Almighty, the Sublime, and His Peace and Blessings be upon His chosen one from the creations, Mohammad and his household.
After writing the second letter, apply good smell on both of them and place the first letter (addressed to Allah) between the second letter (written to Imam Mahdi) and drop both of them in running water or inside a well. Though, before this act, cover these letters with soft clay (without pebbles). Then offer two units of prayers and turn towards Allah by the means of Mohammad and his holy Progeny (peace be upon them). You should drop the letters in water on the eve of Friday.
One should remember not to write these letters with the intention of testing or examining, but should have the faith that his demands will be fulfilled. And should perform this act at times of extreme difficulties and entanglements only.
Similarly, one should not inform about this act to someone who is not worthy of it and should not write this letter for him, because it will not benefit him in anyway. On the other hand, these letters are a deposit safeguarding which is your responsibility, and you will be questioned regarding it.
After dropping the letters, recite the following supplication:
أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِالْقُدْرَةِ الَّتي لَحَظْتَ بِهَا الْبَحْرَ الْعِجاجَ ، فَأَزْبَدَ وَهاجَ وَماجَ ، وَكانَ كَاللَّيْلِ الدَّاجِ ، طَوْعاً لِأَمْرِكَ ، وَخَوْفاً مِنْ سَطْوَتِكَ ، فَأَفْتَقَ اُجاجُهُ ، وَائْتَلَقَ مِنْهاجُهُ ، وَسَبَّحَتْ جَزائِرُهُ ، وَقَدَّسَتْ جَواهِرُهُ ، تُناديكَ حيتانُهُ بِاخْتِلافِ لُغاتِها ، إِلهَنا وَسَيِّدَنا مَا الَّذي نَزَلَ بِنا ، وَمَا الَّذي حَلَّ بِبَحْرِنا فَقُلْتَ لَها اُسْكُني ، سَاُسْكِنُكَ مَلِيّاً ، وَاُجاوِرُ بِكَ عَبْداً زَكِيّاً ، فَسَكَنَ وَسبَّحَ وَوَعَدَ بِضَمائِرِ الْمِنَحِ .
فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ بِهِ ابْنُ مَتَّى بِما أَلِمَ الظُّنُونَ ، فَلَمَّا صارَ في فيها سَبَّحَ في أَمْعائِها ، فَبَكَتِ الْجِبالُ عَلَيْهِ تَلَهُّفاً ، وَأَشْفَقَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْأَرْضُ تَأَسُّفاً ، فَيُونُسُ في حُوتِهِ كَمُوسى في تابُوتِهِ لِأَمْرِكَ طائِعٌ ، وَلِوَجْهِكَ ساجِدٌ خاضِعٌ ، فَلَمَّا أَحْبَبْتَ أَنْ تَقِيَهُ أَلْقَيْتَهُ بِشاطِىِ الْبَحْرِ شَلْواً لاتَنْظُرُ عَيْناهُ ، وَلاتَبْطِشُ يَداهُ ، وَلاتَرْكُضُ رِجْلاهُ ، وَأَنْبَتَّ مِنَّةً مِنْكَ عَلَيْهِ شَجَرَةً مِنْ يَقْطينٍ ، وَأَجْرَيْتَ لَهُ فُراتاً مِنْ مَعينٍ ، فَلَمَّا اسْتَغْفَرَ وَتابَ خَرَقْتَ لَهُ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ باباً ، إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ الْوَهَّابُ .
O’ Allah, indeed I ask You for the sake of Your Power through which You have observed the great oceans, and created the storms and waves, and they became like a dark night, obeying Your command, and fearing Your awe, thus its salty water split, and its ways were adorned, and its islands engaged in glorification, and its treasures began exaltation, its whales calling You in different languages, O’ Lord, O’ Master, what has descended upon us? What has occurred in our oceans? Then You told the whales: Be calm (and said to the ocean): I will grant you relaxation soon, and will bring a pure and appropriate person in your vicinity, thus it relaxed and glorified and was promised for concealed rewards. When the son of Mata descended there, and faced such difficulties whose imagination is dreadful, and when he entered the mouth of the whale, and inside its belly, he began to glorify You, while the mountains began to weep on him, and the Earth felt pity for him and became saddened, the condition of Yunus inside the whale was the same as Musa inside the coffin, both of them obeyed Your command, and prostrated with humility before Your Sublime Existence; at last, when You wished to safeguard him, You dropped him on the seashore while his eyes weren’t capable of seeing, and his hands and legs did not have the power of any movement, at that time You favored upon him and grew a squash tree for him, and made drinkable water flow for him, and when he repented and sought forgiveness, You opened a path for him towards the Heaven, indeed You are the Bestower.
At the end, remember each one of the fourteen Infallibles (A.S.) and greet each one of them with Salaam.[2]
