١٤ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ جَمِيعاً عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ قَالَ كَتَبَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ الْغَنَوِيُّ إِلَيَّ يَسْأَلُنِي أَنْ أَكْتُبَ إِلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) فِي دُعَاءٍ يُعَلِّمُهُ يَرْجُو بِهِ الْفَرَجَ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيَّ أَمَّا مَا سَأَلَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ مِنْ تَعْلِيمِهِ دُعَاءً يَرْجُو بِهِ الْفَرَجَ فَقُلْ لَهُ يَلْزَمُ يَا مَنْ يَكْفِي مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ وَلا يَكْفِي مِنْهُ شَيْ‏ءٌ اكْفِنِي مَا أَهَمَّنِي مِمَّا أَنَا فِيهِ فَإِنِّي أَرْجُو أَنْ يُكْفَى مَا هُوَ فِيهِ مِنَ الْغَمِّ إِنْ شَاءَ الله تَعَالَى فَأَعْلَمْتُهُ ذَلِكَ فَمَا أَتَى عَلَيْهِ إِلا قَلِيلٌ حَتَّى خَرَجَ مِنَ الْحَبْسِ.
14. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad and Muhammad ibn Yahya from Ahmad ibn Muhammad all from Ali ibn Mahziyar who has said the following: “Muhammad ibn Hamza al-Ghanawi once wrote to me to ask abu Ja’far  to instinct him with a supplication that helps make his wish for relief come true. The Imam wrote back to me, ‘About the request of Muhammad ibn Hamza who wants to be instructed with a supplication that helps make his wish for relief come true, tell him to hold to this: “O the One who suffices for everything and nothing suffices for Him, suffice me in what concerns me in my condition,” 1 hope this will suffice him in his condition of sadness, by the will of Allah, the Most High.’ 1 then informed him of the supplication and shortly thereafter he was released from prison.’”
