26 - علي، عن أبيه، عن ابن محبوب، عن هشام بن سالم، عن أبي حمزة قال: أخذت هذا الدعاء عن أبي جعفر [محمد بن علي] (عليهما السلام) قال: وكان أبو جعفر يسميهالجامع: " بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له وأشهد أن محمدا عبده ورسوله، آمنت بالله وبجميع رسله وبجميع ما أنزل به (1) على جميع الرسل وأن وعد الله حق ولقاءه حق وصدق الله وبلغ المرسلون والحمد لله رب العالمين وسبحان الله كلما سبح الله شئ وكما يحب الله أن يسبح والحمد لله كلما حمدالله شئ وكما يحب الله أن يحمد ولا إله إلا الله كلما هلل الله شئ وكما يحب الله أن يهلل والله أكبر كلما كبر الله شئ وكما يحب الله أن يكبر، اللهم إني أسالك مفاتيح الخير وخواتيمه وسوابغه وفوائده وبركاته وما بلغ علمه علمي وما قصر عن إحصائه حفظي، اللهم انهج إلي أسباب معرفته وافتح لي أبوابه وغشني ببركات رحمتك ومن علي بعصمة عن الإزالة عن دينك وطهر قلبي من الشك ولا تشغل قلبي بدنياي وعاجل معاشي عن آجل ثواب آخرتي واشغل قلبي بحفظ ما لا تقبل مني جهله وذلل لكل خير لساني وطهر قلبي من الرياء ولا تجره في مفاصلي واجعل عملي خالصا لك، اللهم إني أعوذ بك من الشر وأنواع الفواحش كلها ظاهرها وباطنها وغفلاتها وجميع ما يريدني به الشيطان الرجيم وما يريدني به السلطان العنيد، مما أحطت بعلمه وأنت القادر على صرفه عني، اللهم إني أعوذ بك من طوارق الجن والإنس وزوابعهم وبوائقهم ومكائدهم ومشاهد الفسقة من الجن والإنس (2) وأن أستزل عن ديني فتفسد علي آخرتي وأن يكون ذلك منهم ضررا علي في معاشي أو يعرض بلاء (3) يصيبني منهم لا قوة لي به ولا صبر لي على احتماله فلا تبتلني يا إلهي بمقاساته فيمنعني ذلك عن ذكرك ويشغلني عن عبادتك، أنت العاصم المانع الدافع الواقي من ذلك كله، أسألكاللهم الرفاهية في معيشتي ما أبقيتني، معيشة أقوى بها على طاعتك وأبلغ بها رضوانك وأصير بها إلى دار الحيوان غدا ولا ترزقني رزقا يطغيني ولا تبتلني بفقر أشقى به مضيقا علي، أعطني حظا وافرا في آخرتي ومعاشا واسعا هنيئا مريئا في دنياي ولا تجعل الدنيا علي سجنا ولا تجعل فراقها علي حزنا أجرني من فتنتها واجعل عملي فيها مقبولا وسعيي فيها مشكورا، اللهم ومن أرادني بسوء فارده بمثله ومن كادني فيها فكده واصرف عني هم من أدخل علي همه وامكر بمن مكر بي فإنك خير الماكرين وافقأ (1) عني عيون الكفرة الظلمة والطغاة والحسدة، اللهم وأنزل علي منك السكينة وألبسني درعك الحصينة واحفظني بسترك الواقي وجللني عافيتك النافعة وصدق قولي وفعالي وبارك لي في ولدي وأهلي ومالي اللهم ما قدمت وما أخرت وما أغفلت وما تعمدت وما توانيت (2) وما أعلنت وما أسررت فاغفره لي يا أرحم الراحمين ".

26. Ali has narrated from his father from ibn Mahbub from Hisham ibn Salim from abu Hamza who has said the following: “I acquired this supplication from abu Ja’far, Muhammad ibn Ali . Abu Ja’far would call it al-Jami’ (comprehensive supplication): “In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful, I testify that no one deserves to be worshipped except Allah alone, Who has no partner and I testify that Muhammad is His servant and messenger. I believe in Allah, in all of His messengers, in all that He has revealed to all the messengers, that the promise of Allah is true, meeting Him is true, Allah has spoken the truth, and the messengers have preached. “All praise belongs to Allah, Lord of the worlds, all glory belongs to Allah whenever anyone glorifies Allah, the way Allah loves to be glorified, all praise belongs to Allah whenever anyone praises Allah in the way Allah loves to be praised, no one deserves to be worshipped except Allah whenever anyone expresses this declaration and testimony as Allah loves to be spoken of as such, Allah is greater than can be described, whenever anyone speaks of Allah as such and as Allah loves to be spoken of as such. “O Lord, I plead before You for the opening of virtue and good and its end, its pleasures and benefits, its blessings and what I know of as well as what I do not know of and my memory has fallen short to keep them. “O Lord, plan for me the means of knowing it (good and virtue), open for me its doors, cover me with the blessings of Y our kindness, oblige me with protection against slipping away from Your religion, cleanse my heart from doubt, do not allow the immediate issue of living of this life divert my attention away from the rewards of the next life, engage my heart in saving what You will not accept my ignorance of it. Humble my tongue for all virtuous deeds, cleanse my heart from showing off, do not allow it (showing off) running in my joints, but making my deeds stand pure. “O Lord, I seek protection with You against the evil of all kinds of indecency, the apparent and the hidden, its carelessness and all of whatever the condemned Satan wants to involve me in, whatever a hostile ruler wants from me, which Your knowledge encompass and You have the power to divert away from me. “Lord I seek protection with You against the encounters of Jinns and human beings, their anger, evil altercations, evil plots, sinful exposures of the Jinn and human beings that may cause me to slip away from my religion, may ruin my hereafter, harm me in my living or an incident of misfortune from them that I may not have the power to deal with, or patience to bear. Do not cause me to suffer such things, O Lord, and its hardships that may prevent me from speaking of You and divert me away from Your worship. You are the protector, the defender, and the savior from all such things. I plead before You O Lord, for comfort in my living as long as You will allow me to live, a living with which I will be able to obey You and earn Your happiness with me, and move thereby to the house of life tomorrow. Do not provide me a sustenance that may cause me to transgress, do not afflict me with a poverty that gives me misery due to constraint, grant me a share good enough for my hereafter, a living that is vast, pleasing, and delightful in my worldly life. Do not make the world a prison for me, or departing it a sorrowful to me, provide me protection against its trials and tribulations. Make my deeds in it acceptable, and my efforts appreciated. “O Lord, whoever intends evil against me, plan against him similarly, whoever plots against me, plan against him and protect me the concern of that which has causes me concern, plot against whoever plots against me; You are the best devisor, cause blindness to the eyes of the unbelievers, oppressors, rebellious ones and enviers against me. “O Lord, send upon me comfort and calm from You and dress me up with Your protective coat of arms, save me with Your safe guarding cover, beautify me with Your well-being, good and beneficial health. Make my words and deeds true. Grant me blessings in my children, my family and my property. “O Lord, forgive me for whatever I have done before, whatever I will do, whatever I neglected, did intentionally, out of laziness, openly or secretly. O the Most Merciful of all merciful ones.’”
