3. Abū ‘Abdil Raĥmān Muĥammad ibn Aĥmad ibn Ĥusain Al-‘Askari narrated to me from Ĥasan ibn ‘Ali ibn Mahziyār, from his father ‘Ali ibn Mahziyār, from ‘Ali ibn Ĥusain ibn ‘Ali ibn ‘Umar ibn ‘Ali ibn Ĥusain ibn ‘Ali ibn Abǐ Ťālib, from ‘Ali ibn Ja’far ibn Muĥammad, from his brother Abil Ĥasan Mūsā ibn Ja’far (Imam Kāżim ), from his father (Imam Šādiq ), who said: His grandfather (Imam Bāqir ) said: ‘Ali ibn Ĥusain (Imam Sajjād ) used to stand next to the grave of the Prophet ﷺ and say Salām to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and testify that he announced the message of Allāh. Then he used to recite any prayer that would come to his mind. Thereafter, he would lean his back on the very delicate green marble that is attached to the grave of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. He would lean his back on the grave and face the Qiblah, and say:                 O Allāh! I seek refuge with You in (all of) my affairs and I have leaned my back on the grave of Muĥammad, Your slave and Your messenger, and I have turned my face toward the Qiblah that You chose for Muĥammad.                                O Allāh! I find that I do not have the power to attain the good that I desire for myself, nor do I have the power to avert the harm I fear. (O Allāh!) I find that all affairs are in Your Hand and that there is no one more needy than I. I am in need of the good that You have given me.        O Allāh! I ask You to decree that which is good for me because no one can keep away Your grace.                 O Allāh! I seek refuge with You from replacing my name, from changing my body, or from removing Your blessing from me.           O Allāh! Adorn me with piety and beautify me with Your blessings. Give me a long, healthy life and sustain me with the ability to thank You for good health.
