4ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ إِذَا دَخَلْتَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ تُقِيمَ ثَلاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ الأَرْبِعَاءَ وَالْخَمِيسَ وَالْجُمُعَةَ فَصَلِّ مَا بَيْنَ الْقَبْرِ وَالْمِنْبَرِ يَوْمَ الأَرْبِعَاءِ عِنْدَ الأُسْطُوَانَةِ الَّتِي تَلِي الْقَبْرَ فَتَدْعُو الله عِنْدَهَا وَتَسْأَلُهُ كُلَّ حَاجَةٍ تُرِيدُهَا فِي آخِرَةٍ أَوْ دُنْيَا وَالْيَوْمَ الثَّانِيَ عِنْدَ أُسْطُوَانَةِ التَّوْبَةِ وَيَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ عِنْدَ مَقَامِ النَّبِيِّ (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) مُقَابِلَ الأُسْطُوَانَةِ الْكَثِيرَةِ الْخَلُوقِ فَتَدْعُو الله عِنْدَهُنَّ لِكُلِّ حَاجَةٍ وَتَصُومُ تِلْكَ الثَّلاثَةَ الأَيَّامِ.

4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad from al-Halabiy who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said that when you enter the Masjid, if you can stay three days, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, perform salat (prayer) between the grave and the pulpit. On Wednesday, perform salat (prayer) near the pillar next to the grave. Appeal before Allah and ask Him for your wishes for the matters of the next life or the worldly matters. On the second day, perform salat (prayer) near al-Tawbah pillar and on Friday near the Maqam of the Holy Prophet, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, opposite to the pillar of abundant fragrance. Appeal before Allah for your wishes and fast during these three days.”
