٣٣ - علي بن إبراهيم، عن أبيه، عن ابن أبي عمير، عن منصور بن يونس، عن أبي بصير، عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام) فقال: قل: اللهم إني أسألك قول التوابين وعملهم و نور الأنبياء وصدقهم ونجاة المجاهدين وثوابهم وشكر المصطفين ونصيحتهم وعمل الذاكرين ويقينهم وإيمان العلماء وفقههم وتعبد الخاشعين وتواضعهم وحكم الفقهاء و سيرتهم وخشية المتقين ورغبتهم وتصديق المؤمنين وتوكلهم ورجاء المحسنين وبرهم اللهم إني أسألك ثواب الشاكرين ومنزلة المقربين ومرافقه النبيين، اللهم إني أسألك خوف العاملين لك وعمل الخائفين منك وخشوع العابدين لك ويقين المتوكلينعليك وتوكل المؤمنين بك، اللهم إنك بحاجتي عالم غير معلم وأنت لها واسع غير متكلف وأنت الذي لا يحفيك سائل (١) ولا ينقصك نائل ولا يبلغ مدحتك (٢) قول قائل أنت كما تقول وفوق ما نقول، اللهم اجعل لي فرجا قريبا وأجرا عظيما وسترا جميلا اللهم إنك تعلم أني على ظلمي لنفسي وإسرافي عليها لم أتخذ لك ضدا ولا ندا ولا صاحبة ولا ولدا، يا من لا تغلطه المسائل، يا من لا يشغله شئ عن شئ ولا سمع عن سمع ولا بصر عن بصر ولا يبرمه إلحاح الملحين (٣) أسألك أن تفرج عني في ساعتي هذه من حيث أحتسب ومن حيث لا أحتسب إنك تحيي العظام وهي رميم وإنك على كل شئ قدير، يا من قل شكري له فلم يحرمني وعظمت خطيئتي فلم يفضحني ورآني على المعاصي فلم يجبهني (٤) وخلقني للذي خلقني له فصنعت غير الذي خلقني له (٥) فنعم المولى أنت يا سيدي وبئس العبد أنا وجدتني ونعم الطالب أنت ربي وبئس المطلوب [أنا] ألفيتني، عبدك وابن عبدك وابن أمتك بين يديك ما شئت صنعت بي، اللهم هدأت الأصوات وسكنت الحركات وخلا كل حبيب بحبيبه وخلوت بك أنت المحبوب إلي فاجعل خلوتي منك الليلة العتق من النار يا من ليست لعالم فوقه صفة يا من ليس لمخلوق دونه منعة (٦) يا أول قبل كل شئ ويا آخر بعد كل شئ يا من ليس له عنصر (٧) ويا من ليس لآخره فناء ويا أكمل منعوت ويا أسمح المعطين ويا من يفقه بكل لغة يدعى بها ويا من عفوه قديم وبطشه شديد وملكه مستقيم أسألك باسمك الذي شافهت به موسى (٨)يا الله يا رحمن يا رحيم، يا لا إله إلا أنت، اللهم أنت الصمد أسألك أن تصلي على محمد وآل محمد وأن تدخلني الجنة برحمتك ".
33. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ibn abu ‘Umayr from Mansur ibn Yunus from abu Basir from abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Say, ‘O Lord, I plead before You, to grant me such words as those of repenting people and their deeds, the light of the prophets and their truthfulness, salvation of the fighters for Your cause and their rewards, thankfulness of the chosen ones and their good advice, actions of those who speak of You and their certainty, belief of the scholars and their deep understanding, worship of the concerned people and their humility, the judgment of the experts in the law (Shari’ a) and their discipline, worries of the pious people and their interest (in religion), the affirmation of the believing people and their trusting (Allah) and the hope of the virtuous people and their good deeds. “O Lord, I plead before You grant me a reward as that granted to those who thank (You), the position of those very near to (You) and the friendship of the prophets. O Lord, I plead before You to grant me a fear like that of the people who act for Your sake, the acts of those who fear You, the humility of those who worship You, the certainty of those who place their trust in You and the trust of the believing people with You. O Lord, You know my needs without being taught, and You are capable of helping without being burdened. You are the One Whom no pleading person can overcome verbally, or anyone can find faults with or anyone can exhaust His praise. O Lord, You are as You say and above what we say. O Lord, provide me immediate relief, great rewards, and beautiful covering. O Lord, You know that in doing injustice to myself and transgressing against it I did not take anyone as Your opposition, partner, companion, or a child. “O the One whom pleading cannot confuse, nothing can preoccupy in listening to one from listening to the other, seeing one from seeing the other and the insistence of insisting people cannot tire Him. I plead before You to provide me relief in this hour from the sources I except or from that which I do not expect; You bring to life the bones that have turned to ashes; You have power over all things. O the One to whom my thanks had been very little but He has not deprived me, my sins were monstrous but He has not disgraced me. He found me in sins but did not encounter me. He created me for what He has created me but I have acted against what He has created me for. What a great owner are You O my Master! What a despicable slave am I! You have found me, You are the best of finders O Lord! What a despicable thing am 1 to look for! It is Your slave, the son of Your slave and the son of Your female slave before You to deal with as You will. O Lord, the voices have silenced, movements have calmed down, every loving one has sought privacy with his beloved, and I have sought privacy with You. You are the beloved to me, make the privacy that 1 have sought with You my freedom from the fire. O the One above whom there is no person of knowledge more praiseworthy. O the One below whom there is no creature barred to reach Him. O the First before all things, O the Last after all things. O the One who has no elements, O the One for whom there is no end for annihilation, O the One of perfect attributes, O the most lenient of providers, O the One who communicates with all languages and is spoken to as well, O the One whose forgiveness had been there from long before, whose hold is stern, whose kingdom is solid, I plead before You through Your name with which You faced Moses, O Allah, O the Beneficent, O the Merciful, O the One, no one deserves to be worshipped except You. O Lord, You are Selfsufficient, I plead before You to bestow al-Salat (favors) upon Muhammad and his family and admit me in paradise.”
