SUPPLICATION ON THE DAY OF GHADEER FESTIVAL

Whoever recites this supplication shall be under the banner of Imam Mahdi (peace be on him) and his tent among the generous and associates.

Allamah Majlisi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: we have narrated with connected chain of collectors what Mohammad bn Ali Al-Tarazi has narrated in his book while reporting from Muhammad bn Sanan , from Daud bn Katheer Al-Raqi, from Amarah bn Jaween Abi Harun Al-Abdi; we have also narrated from Sheikh Mufid, Muhammad bn Muhammad bn Al-Nu'man of what he has narrated from Amarah bn Jaween Abi Harun Al- Abdi, he said: I entered to Abi Abdullah (peace be on him) on the eighteenth day of Zil Hijjah and I met him fasting, he said: "This day, God has made it a sanctuary for the believers when He perfected His Religion and completed His favour on them and renew His covenant of the early creation with them, when Allah made them to remember and they accepted it from Him and He did not make them people of denial and those  that disavowed"

I said to him: may my soul be sacrifice for you: what shall be the reward for those that fast this day? He said: "this day is a day of joy and happiness and the fasting is a thanks giving to Almighty Allah, verily fasting this day is equivalent to (60) sixty months fasting of the sacred month, and whoever offer (2) two units (Raka'at) of prayer at any time of this day (but the better before Zuhr prayer because that was the time the commander of the faithful (peace be on him) was conferred   with the   successorship   in Ghadeer Khum before the general public) and after that he go on prostration position and thank Almighty Allah (by saying  (100شُكْراً للَّه) one hundred times after that, he rise from the prostration and recite the following supplication:

أَللَّهُمَّ إِنّي أَسْئَلُكَ بِأَنَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدَ ، وَحْدَكَ لا شَريكَ لَكَ ، وَأَنَّكَ واحِدٌ أَحَدٌ صَمَدٌ ، لَمْ تَلِدْ وَلَمْ تُولَدْ ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَكَ كُفُواً أَحَدٌ ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّداً عَبْدُكَ وَرَسُولُكَ صَلَواتُكَ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ .

  يا مَنْ هُوَ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ في شَأْنٍ ، كَما كانَ مِنْ شَأْنِكَ أَنْ تَفَضَّلْتَ عَلَيَّ ، بِأَنْ جَعَلْتَني مِنْ أَهْلِ إِجابَتِكَ ، وَأَهْلِ دينِكَ وَأَهْلِ دَعْوَتِكَ ، وَوَفَّقْتَني لِذلِكَ في مُبْتَدَءِ خَلْقي ، تَفَضُّلاً مِنْكَ وَكَرَماً وَجُوداً .

  ثُمَّ أَرْدَفْتَ الْفَضْلَ فَضْلاً ، وَالْجُودَ جُوداً ، وَالْكَرَمَ كَرَماً ، رَأْفَةً مِنْكَ وَرَحْمَةً إِلى أَنْ جَدَّدْتَ ذلِكَ الْعَهْدَ لي تَجْديداً بَعْدَ تَجْديدِكَ خَلْقي ، وَكُنْتُ نَسْياً مَنْسِيّاً ناسِياً ساهِياً غافِلاً ، فَأَتْمَمْتَ نِعْمَتَكَ بِأَنْ ذَكَّرْتَني ذلِكَ ، وَمَنَنْتَ بِهِ عَلَيَّ ، وَهَدَيْتَني لَهُ .

  فَلْيَكُنْ مِنْ شَأْنِكَ يا إِلهي وَسَيِّدي وَمَوْلايَ ، أَنْ تُتِمَّ لي ذلِكَ ، وَلاتَسْلُبْنيهِ ، حَتَّى تَتَوَفَّاني عَلى ذلِكَ وَأَنْتَ عَنّي راضٍ ، فَإِنَّكَ أَحَقُّ الْمُنْعِمينَ أَنْ تُتِمَّ نِعْمَتَكَ عَلَيَّ .

  أَللَّهُمَّ سَمِعْنا وَأَطَعْنا ، وَأَجَبْنا داعِيَكَ بِمَنِّكَ ، فَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ غُفْرانَكَ رَبَّنا وَإِلَيْكَ الْمَصيرُ ، آمَنَّا بِاللَّهِ ، وَحْدَهُ لا شَريكَ لَهُ ، وَبِرَسُولِهِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ ، وَصَدَّقْنا وَأَجَبْنا داعِيَ اللَّهِ ، وَاتَّبَعْنَا الرَّسُولَ في مُوالاةِ مَوْلانا وَمَوْلَى الْمُؤْمِنينَ أَميرِالْمُؤْمِنينَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبي طالِبٍ ، عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَخي رَسُولِهِ ، وَالصِّدّيقِ الْأَكْبَرِ ، وَالْحُجَّةِ عَلى بَرِيَّتِهِ ، اَلْمُؤَيِّدِ بِهِ نَبِيَّهُ وَدينَهُ الْحَقَّ الْمُبينَ ، عَلَماً لِدينِ اللَّهِ ، وَخازِناً لِعِلْمِهِ ، وَعَيْبَةَ غَيْبِ اللَّهِ ، وَمَوْضِعَ سِرِّ اللَّهِ ، وَأَمينَ اللَّهِ عَلى خَلْقِهِ ، وَشاهِدَهُ في بَرِيَّتِهِ .

  أَللَّهُمَّ « رَبَّنا إِنَّنا سَمِعْنا مُنادِياً يُنادي لِلْإيمانِ أَنْ آمِنُوا بِرَبِّكُمْ فَآمَنَّا رَبَّنا، فَاغْفِرْلَنا ذُنُوبَنا وَكَفِّرْ عَنَّا سَيِّئاتِنا وَتَوَفَّنا مَعَ الْأَبْرارِ × رَبَّنا وَآتِنا ما وَعَدْتَنا عَلى رُسُلِكَ وَلاتُخْزِنا يَوْمَ الْقِيامَةِ إِنَّكَ لاتُخْلِفُ الْميعادَ» .

  فَآمَنَّا رَبَّنا بِمَنِّكَ وَلُطْفِكَ ، أَجَبْنا داعِيَكَ ، وَاتَّبَعْنَا الرَّسُولَ وَصدَّقْناهُ وَصدَّقْنا مَوْلَى الْمُؤْمِنينَ ، وَكَفَرْنا بِالْجِبْتِ وَالطَّاغُوتِ ، فَوَلِّنا ما تَوَلَّيْنا، وَاحْشُرْنا مَعَ أَئِمَّتِنا، فَإِنَّا بِهِمْ مُؤْمِنُونَ مُوقِنُونَ، وَلَهُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ.

  آمَنَّا بِسِرِّهِمْ وَعَلانِيَتِهِمْ ، وَشاهِدِهِمْ وَغائِبِهِمْ ، وَحَيِّهِمْ وَمَيِّتِهِمْ ، وَرضينا بِهِمْ أَئِمَّةً ، وَقادَةً وَسادَةً ، وَحَسْبُنا بِهِمْ بَيْنَنا وَبَيْنَ اللَّهِ دُونَ خَلْقِهِ ، لانَبْتَغي بِهِمْ بَدَلاً ، وَلانَتَّخِذُ مِنْ دُونِهِمْ وليجَةً . وَبَرِئْنا إِلَى اللَّهِ مِنْ كُلِّ مَنْ نَصَبَ لَهُمْ حَرْباً ، مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَالْإِنْسِ ، مِنَ الْأَوَّلينَ وَالْآخِرينَ ، وَكَفَرْنا بِالْجِبْتِ وَالطَّاغُوتِ ، وَالْأَوْثانِ الْأَرْبَعَةِ ، وَأَشْياعِهِمْ وَأَتْباعِهِمْ ، وَكُلِّ مَنْ والاهُمْ مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَالْإِنْسِ ، مِنْ أَوَّلِ الدَّهْرِ إِلى آخِرِهِ .

  أَللَّهُمَّ إِنَّا نُشْهِدُكَ أَنَّا نَدينُ بِما دانَ بِهِ مُحَمَّدٌ وَآلُ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَيْهِمْ ، وَقَوْلُنا ما قالُوا ، وَدينُنا ما دانُوا بِهِ ، ما قالُوا بِهِ قُلْنا ، وَما دانُوا بِهِ دِنَّا ، وَما أَنْكَرُوا أَنْكَرْنا ، وَمَنْ والَوْا والَيْنا ، وَمَنْ عادَوْا عادَيْنا ، وَمَنْ لَعَنُوا لَعَنَّا وَمَنْ تَبَرَّءُوا مِنْهُ تَبَرَّأْنا مِنْهُ ، وَمَنْ تَرَحَّمُوا عَلَيْهِ تَرَحَّمْنا عَلَيْهِ ، امَنَّا وَسَلَّمْنا وَرضينا ، وَاتَّبَعْنا مَوالينا صَلَواتُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ .

  أَللَّهُمَّ فَتَمِّمْ لَنا ذلِكَ وَلاتَسْلُبْناهُ ، وَاجْعَلْهُ مُسْتَقِرّاً ثابِتاً عِنْدَنا ، وَلاتَجْعَلْهُ مُسْتَعاراً، وَأَحْيِنا ما أَحْيَيْتَنا عَلَيْهِ، وَأَمِتْنا إِذا أَمَتَّنا عَلَيْهِ ، آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ أَئِمَّتُنا ، فَبِهِمْ نَأْتَمُّ ، وَإِيَّاهُمْ نُوالي ، وَعَدُوَّهُمْ عَدُوَّ اللَّهِ نُعادي ، فَاجْعَلْنا مَعَهُمْ فِي الدُّنْيا وَالْآخِرَةِ وَمِنَ الْمُقَرَّبينَ ، فَإِنَّا بِذلِكَ راضُونَ ، يا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمينَ .

O' Allah I am asking You, verily You are worth praising, You are alone without any associates, verily You are one, alone and everlasting, You did not begotten nor were You begotten, and there is no one comparable to You, verily Muhammad is Your servant and Your Messenger, may Your blessing be on him and on his family, O' He who is at duty every time,  as it was Your stature to confer favour on me, to make me among those You answer their prayers, and among those that practice Your Religion, let me among those that call upon You, as You have accord me that right from the commencement of my creation just as a favour and generosity from You.

Then followed by favour, bounty, and Munificence as leniency and mercy from You till You renew my covenant after the renewal of my creation, then I was completely forgotten and negligence, then You complete Your favour on me by reminding me of that, You bestowed and guided me to that.

O' My Lord, my Leader and my master, let among Your duty the perfection of that favour on me and don't deprive me of that, till You take my life while You are pleasing with me, verily You worth granting and perfecting favour on me.

O' Allah, we heard and shall obey and answer Your call due to Your favour on us, all praiseand forgiveness are due to You, O' our God unto You the whole fate. We believe in God, He is alone without any associate, we also believe in His Messenger Muhammad, may the blessing of Allah be on him and on his holy family, we endorsed and answer the call of God, we followed the Messenger in accepting the guardianship of our master and the believers master, the commander of the faithful, Ali son of Abi Talib, the servant of Allah, the brother of His Messenger, the great righteous one and the proof on His creation, the supporter of His Prophet and His manifested true Religion, the flag bearer of the Religion of God, the treasure of His knowledge, the suitcase of Allah's secrets, the place of Allah's mysteries, the trustee of Allah on His creatures and His witness among His creations.

O' Allah, {O' Lord, we have heard a caller calling us to believe saying, "believe you in Your Lord!" and we believe our Lord, forgive Thou us our sins and acquit us of our evil deeds, and take us to thee with the pious, Our Lord, give us what Thou hast promise us by Thy Messengers and abase us not on the day of resurrection, Thou wilt not fail the trust}^[1]

O' our Lord, we believe on Your favour and kindness and answer the callers on Your path and we followed and believe the Prophet, and we believe on the master of the believers, we disbelieves on tyrants and idols, we obey those whom You had confer on us as leaders and guardian, resurrect us together with our Imams, because we certainly believe in them and to them we surrender.We believe in their secrets and their overt, the present and the absent among them, we are pleased for their Imamate, leadership and mastership, they are sufficient to us between us and God without any other of His creations, we don't wish for their exchange and we don't take other than them as our confidant.

We acquit before Allah with whoever declares war against them, among the Jinn and the mankind from the beginning to the end of the time, we disbelieve the tyrants and idols and the major four idols together with their followers and whoever paid them allegiance among the Jinn and mankind, from the beginning to the end of the time.

O' Allah, we take You as witness that we believe on what Muhammad and the family of Muhammad has believed on, blessing of Allah be upon him and upon them, our sayings is what they say, our Religion is their Religion, what ever they said is what we say, what ever they adopted we adopt, what ever they rejected we reject, what ever they paid allegiance we pay allegiance to, we revert what ever they reverted, we curse what ever they cursed, we disavow what ever they disavowed from, we have mercy on who ever they have mercy on, we believe, surrender, please and follow our masters, may Allah's blessing be on them all.

O' Allah, perfected that for us and don't deprived us of it, let that be firm and well established with us, and don't make it a fictitious, let our life in this situation and when You seize our life, on the same situation of the family of Muhammad, they are our Imams, for their memorial we gathered and to them we pay allegiance, we revolt against their enemywho are also the enemy of Allah, let us be among their intimacy in this world and the world Hereafter, verily we are pleased with that, O' the Most Merciful of the merciful…

Then you prostrate while praising Allah by saying «اَلْحَمْدُ للَّهِ» 100 one hundred times and thank Almighty Allah«شُكْراً للَّهِِ» 100 one hundred times. Who ever offer all this, is like he is present that day and give allegiance to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and upon his family) on that, and his rank is like that of the trustworthy ones that certify Allah and His Messenger in paying allegiance to their leader that day, and shall be like he who has witness the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and upon his family), the commander of the faithful (peace be on him) and Al-Hasan and Al-Husein (peace be on them). And also he is like those under the banner of Imam Al-Mahdi (may our souls be sacrifice for him) in his tent among the generous and noble ones.^[2]
