The Sufficient (Vol 2) · Hadith 1992 (#Ḥadīth #12)

12 - عنه، عن أحمد بن محمد، عن علي بن الحكم، عن أبي أيوب، عن إبراهيم الكرخي قال: علمنا أبو عبد الله (عليه السلام) دعاء وأمرنا أن ندعو به يوم الجمعة: " اللهم إني تعمدت إليك بحاجتي وأنزلت بك اليوم فقري ومسكنتي، فأنا [اليوم] لمغفرتك أرجا مني لعملي ولمغفرتك ورحمتك أوسع من ذنوبي فتول قضاء كل حاجة هي لي بقدرتك عليها وتيسير ذلك عليك ولفقري إليك فإني لم أصب خيرا قط إلا منك ولم يصرف عني أحد شرا قط غيرك وليس أرجو لآخرتي ودنياي سواك ولا ليوم فقري [و] يوم يفردني الناس في حفرتي وافضي إليك يا رب بفقري (2).

12. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Ayyub from Ibrahim al-Karkhi who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah had instructed us with this supplication to read on Fridays: ‘O Lord, I have relied on Your help in my needs and I have arrived before You on the day of my poverty and destitution. Today I rely on Your forgiveness more than on my deeds; Your mercy is more vast than my sins. Take all of my needs in Your hands; You have power over all of them. They cause no burden for You and I am desperately needy. 1 have never received any good from anyone except You and no one has ever diverted any evil from me except You. I do not have any hope in anyone for my worldly or the affairs of the hereafter except from You, nor do I have any hope in anyone for my day of desperation when people leave me in the hole (the grave) dug for me and I am being left to You, O Lord, with my poverty.’”
