2ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ مَنْ دَعَا وَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ النَّبِيَّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) رَفْرَفَ الدُّعَاءُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ فَإِذَا ذَكَرَ النَّبِيَّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) رُفِعَ الدُّعَاءُ.
2. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from his father from al- Nawfali from al-Sakuni from Abu ‘Abdillah who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah has said, ‘Whoever prays and does not mention the Holy Prophet, his prayer remains dangled over his head. When he mentions the Holy Prophet only then his prayer is raised up (to heavens).”’
