When you accomplish the prayer, you may repeat (the phrase of) ‘sub¦¡nall¡h’ thirty-three times, (the phrase of) ‘al¦amdulill¡h’ thirty-three times, and (the phrase of) ‘all¡hu-akbar’ thirty-four times. You may then say the following supplication:Mp3

and save me from doing more acts of disobedience to You,	w¡`¥imny mina al¡zd¢¡di f¢ ma`¥iyatika	وَاعْصِمْنِي مِنَ الإزْدِيَادِ فِي مَعْصِيَتِكَ،

O my Master: a fugitive resorts to none save You,	sayyidy ilayka yalja’u alh¡ribu	سَيِّدِي إلَيْكَ يَلْجَأُ الْهَارِبُ،
and a needy begs none save You,	wa minka yaltamisu al§§¡libu	وَمِنْكَ يَلْتَمِسُ الطَّالِبُ،

and You have instructed Your servants to pardon; and You are verily the All-forgiving, the All-merciful.	wa amarta bil`af£i `ib¡daka wa anta alghaf£ru alrra¦¢mu	وَأَمَرْتَ بِالْعَفْوِ عِبَادَكَ وَأَنْتَ الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ.
O Allah: (please) do not deprive me of Your generosity for which I hope,	all¡humma fal¡ ta¦rimny m¡ rajawtu min karamika	اللّهُمَّ فَلا تَحْرِمْنِي مَا رَجَوْتُ مِنْ كَرَمِكَ،
and do not make me despair of Your opulent bounties,	wa l¡ tu´¢isny min s¡bighi ni`amika	وَلا تُؤْيِسْنِي مِنْ سَابِغِ نِعَمِكَ،
and do not disappoint me of Your abundant sustenance that You decide, this night, for those who are obedient to You,	wa l¡ tukhayybny min jaz¢li qisamika f¢ hadhihi allaylati liahli §¡`atika	وَلا تُخَيِّبْنِي مِنْ جَزِيلِ قِسَمِكَ فِي هذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ لأهْلِ طَاعَتِكَ،
and include me with Your protection against Your evil creatures.	waj`alny f¢ junnatin min shir¡ri bariyyatika	وَاجْعَلْنِي فِي جُنَّةٍ مِنْ شِرَارِ بَرِيَّتِكَ،
O my Lord: If I do not deserve so, then You are worthy of acting generously to me, and pardoning and forgiving me,	rabbi in lam akun min ahli dhalika fanta ahlu alkarami wal-`af£i wal-maghfirati	رَبِّ إنْ لَمْ أَكُنْ مِنْ أَهْلِ ذلِكَ فَأَنْتَ أَهْلُ الْكَرَمِ وَالْعَفْوِ وَالْمَغْفِرَةِ،
and (please) bestow upon me magnanimously according to that which befits You, not according to what I deserve,	wa jud `alayya bim¡ anta ahluhu l¡ bim¡ asta¦iqquhu	وَجُدْ عَلَيَّ بِمَا أَنْتَ أَهْلُهُ لا بِمَا أَسْتَحِقُّهُ،
verily, I carry an excellent opinion about You,	faqad ¦asuna ¨ann¢ bika	فَقَدْ حَسُنَ ظَنِّي بِكَ،
and I do hope for You,	wa ta¦aqqaqa raj¡iy laka	وَتَحَقَّقَ رَجَائِي لَكَ،
and my self is hanged to the rope of Your generosity,	wa `aliqat nafs¢ bikaramika	وَعَلِقَتْ نَفْسِي بِكَرَمِكَ
for You are verily the most Merciful of all those who show mercy,	fa-anta ar¦amu alrr¡¦im¢na	فَأَنْتَ أَرْحَمُ الرَّاحِمِينَ،
and You are the most Generous of all those who are generous.	wa akramu alakram¢na	وَأَكْرَمُ الأَكْرَمِينَ.
O Allah: (please) confer upon me exclusively with an abundant share of what You decide, out of Your generosity,	all¡humma w¡kh¥u¥ny min karamika bijaz¢li qisamika	اللّهُمَّ وَاخْصُصْنِي مِنْ كَرَمِكَ بِجَزِيلِ قِسَمِكَ،
and I seek refuge with Your pardon against Your chastisement,	wa a`£dhu bi`afwika min `uq£batika	وَأَعُوذُ بِعَفْوِكَ مِنْ عُقُوبَتِكَ،
and (please) forgive me the sin that prevents me from enjoying high morals,	wa ghfir liya aldhdhanba alladhy ya¦bisu `alayya alkhuluqa	وَاغْفِرْ لِيَ الذَّنْبَ الَّذِي يَحْبِسُ عَلَيَّ الْخُلُقَ،
and suppresses my sustenance,	wa yu¤ayyiqu `alayya alrrzqa	وَيُضَيِّقُ عَلَيَّ الرّزْقَ
so that I will do that which excellently achieves Your satisfaction	¦att¡ aq£ma bi¥¡li¦i ri¤¡ka	حَتَّى أَقُومَ بِصَالِحِ رِضَاكَ،
and I will enjoy Your profuse granting,	wa an`ama bijaz¢li `a§¡’ika	وَأَنْعَمَ بِجَزِيلِ عَطَائِكَ،
and I will be delighted by Your abundant bounties.	wa as`ada bis¡bighi na`m¡’ika	وَأَسْعَدَ بِسَابِغِ نَعْمَائِكَ،
I am having recourse to Your sanctity,	faqad ludhtu bi¦aramika	فَقَدْ لُذْتُ بِحَرَمِكَ،
and I am asking for Your generosity,	wa ta`arra¤tu likaramika	وَتَعَرَّضْتُ لِكَرَمِكَ،
and I am taking shelter in Your pardon against Your punishment,	w¡sta`adhtu bi`afwika min `uq£batika	وَاسْتَعَذْتُ بِعَفْوِكَ مِنْ عُقُوبَتِكَ،
and in Your forbearance against Your ire.	wa bi¦ilmika min gha¤abika	وَبِحِلْمِكَ مِنْ غَضَبِكَ،
So, (please) bestow upon me generously with that which I have asked from You,	fajud bim¡ sa-altuka	فَجُدْ بِمَا سَأَلْتُكَ،
and confer upon me with that which I have begged from You,	wa anil m¡ altamastu minka	وَأَنِلْ مَا الْتَمَسْتُ مِنْكَ،
I beseech You in Your name, since there is nothing great that You are.	a¥aluka bika l¡ bishay‘in huwa a`¨amu minka	أَسْأَلُكَ بِكَ لا بِشَيْءٍ هُوَ أَعْظَمُ مِنْكَ.

You may then pray Almighty Allah for sending blessings upon the Holy Prophet and ask for settling your requests.

By Allah I swear, even if you pray for needs as many as raindrops, Almighty Allah, out of His generosity and favors, will settle them all.”

Eleventh: Shaykh al-±£siy and Shaykh al-Kaf`amiy say: It is suitable to say the following supplication at this night: Mp3

إلهِي تَعَرَّضَ لَكَ فِي هذَا اللَّيْلِ الْمُتَعَرِّضُونَ،	il¡hy ta`arra¤a laka f¢ h¡dh¡ allayli almuta`arri¤£na	O Allah: tonight the seekers of favors, restless and eager, present themselves to You;
وَقَصَدَكَ الْقَاصِدُونَ،	wa qa¥adaka alq¡¥id£na	the determined aspirers have You in mind;

وَعَطَايَا وَمَوَاهِبُ	wa `a§¡y¡ wa maw¡hibu	free donations, and favors,

وَتَمْنَعُهَا مَنْ لَمْ تَسْبِقْ لَهُ الْعِنَايَةُ مِنْكَ،	wa tamna`uh¡ man lam tasbiq lahu al`in¡iyatu minka	and say no to those who do not try to get in advance (remain behind) for obtaining the bounties from You.
وَهَا أَنَا ذَا عُبَيْدُكَ الْفَقِيرُ إلَيْكَ	wa h¡ an¡ dh¡ `ubayduka alfaq¢ru ilayka	I, a modest needy bondman,
الْمُؤَمِّلُ فَضْلَكَ وَمَعْرُوفَكَ،	almu´ammilu fa¤laka wa ma`r£faka	am hopeful of Your obligingness and kindness.
فَإنْ كُنْتَ يَا مَوْلايَ تَفَضَّلْتَ فِي هذِهِ اللَّيْلَةِ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْ خَلْقِكَ	fain kunta y¡ mawl¡iya tafa¤¤alta f¢ hadhihi allaylati `al¡ a¦adin min khalqika	Indeed if You, O My Master, bestows a favor on any one, in this night, from among Your created beings,
وَعُدْتَ عَلَيْهِ بِعَائِدَةٍ مِنْ عَطْفِكَ	wa `udta `alayhi bi`¡’idatin min `a§fika	and multiply profits and gains for him out of love and affection,
فَصَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ	fa¥alli `al¡ mu¦ammadin wa ¡li mu¦ammadin	please send blessings upon Mu¦ammad and the Household of Mu¦ammad:
الطَّيِّبِينَ الطَّاهِرِينَ الْخَيِّرِينَ الْفَاضِلِينَ،	al§§iyyib¢na al§§¡hir¢na alkhayyr¢na alf¡¤il¢na	the pure, the immaculate, the virtuous, and the righteous;
وَجُدْ عَلَيَّ بِطَوْلِكَ وَمَعْرُوفِكَ	wa jud `alayya bi§awlika wa ma`r£fika	and then let me have enough and be contented on account of Your liberality and obligingness,
يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ،	y¡ rabba al`¡lam¢na	O Lord of the worlds!

وَآلِهِ الطَّاهِرِينَ	wa ¡lihi al§§¡hir¢na	and upon his Household, the immaculate,

إنَّ اللّهَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ.	inn all¡ha ¦am¢dun maj¢dun	verily, Allah is worthy of all praise, full of all glory.

إنَّكَ لا تُخْلِفُ الْمِيعَادَ.	innaka l¡ tukhlifu alm¢`¡da	verily, You never break Your promise.

It is worth mentioning that this supplication is advisably said immediately after the accomplishment of the Shaf` Prayer at the last hours of night.

Twelfth: It is recommended to say the supplication narrated by Shaykh al-±£siy and Sayyid Ibn ±¡w£s after each two Rak`ahs of the Night Prayer (¯al¡t al-Layl), the Shaf` Prayer, and the Witr Prayer.

Thirteenth: It is recommended to do the prostrations and say the supplications that are reported from the Holy Prophet (a.s). One of these is that Shaykh al-±£siy has narrated on the authority of °amm¡d ibn `«s¡ on the authority of Ab¡n ibn Taghlib that Imam Ja`far al-¯¡diq (a.s) recounted the following:

It was the fifteenth night of Sha`b¡n when the Holy Prophet (a.s) was with `ª'ishah, his wife. At midnight, the Holy Prophet (a.s) left the bed. When `ª'ishah woke up and could not find the Holy Prophet (a.s), she felt jealous and Thought that he joined one of his other wives. She therefore left her bed and put on her cloak, which was made of neither silk, not linen, nor cotton; rather it was made of camel hair. In any event, `ª'ishah searched for the Holy Prophet (a.s) in all the rooms of his other wives but she found him prostrating himself on the ground like a thrown dress. As she approached, she heard him saying:Mp3

The Holy Prophet (a.s) then raised his head and then prostrated himself again, saying:

When the Holy Prophet (a.s) accomplished these acts of worship and directed towards his bed, `ª'ishah ran before him until she reached the bed before he did. When he heard her speedy breathes, the Holy Prophet (a.s) asked her about it. He then said, “Do you know what this night is? This is the night of the half of Sha`b¡n. At this night, shares of provisions are distributed, ages are decided, and the pilgrims are appointed. Verily, Almighty Allah, at this night, forgives as many of His creatures as the hairs of the goats of Kalb Tribe. Almighty Allah also orders angels to descend to the earth, to Makkah, at this night.”

Fifteenth: It is recommended to offer the prayers that are dedicated to this night. As a matter of fact, these prayers are many. One of them is that which is reported by Ab£-Ya¦y¡ al-¯an`¡niy, as well as other thirty trustworth individuals, from Imam Mu¦ammad al-B¡qir (a.s) and Imam Ja`far al-¯¡diq (a.s) as follows:

At the night of the half of Sha`b¡n, you may offer a four Rak`ah prayer in each Rak`ah of which you may recite the S£rah of al-F¡ti¦ah once and the S£rah of al-Taw¦¢d one hundred times. After accomplishment, you may say the following supplication: Mp3

It is worth mentioning that °ad¢ths have decided a great reward for him who offers a one hundred Rak`ah prayer at this night; in each Rak`ah of which the S£rah of al-F¡ti¦ah is recited once and the S£rah of al-Taw¦¢d is repeated ten times.

السَّلامُ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ اللّه،	alssal¡mu `alayka y¡ ab¡ `abdi all¡h	Peace be upon you; O Ab£-`Abdull¡h!
السَّلامُ عَلَيْكَ وَرَحْمَةُ اللّه وَبَرَكَاتُهُ.	alssal¡mu `alayka wa ra¦matu all¡h wa barak¡tuhu	Peace and Allah’s mercy and blessings be upon you.

سُبْحَانَ اللّهِ،	sub¦¡na all¡hi,	All glory be to Allah;
وَالْحَمْدُ لِلّهِ،	wal¦amdu lill¡hi,	all praise be to Allah;
وَلا إلهَ إلاَّ اللّهُ،	wa l¡ il¡ha ill¡ all¡hu,	there is no god save Allah;
وَاللّهُ أَكْبَرُ،	wall¡hu akbaru,	Allah is the Greatest;

Prostrating before You are my body and my shadow	sajada laka saw¡dy wa khay¡l¢	سَجَدَ لَكَ سَوَادِي وَخَيَالِي،
and my heart is in full faith of You	wa ¡mana bika fu´¡d¢	وَآمَنَ بِكَ فُؤَادِي،
These are my two hands and this is what I have committed against myself,	hadhihi yad¡iya wa m¡ janaytuhu `al¡ nafs¢	هذِهِ يَدَايَ وَمَا جَنَيْتُهُ عَلَى نَفْسِي،
O the All-great: You are hoped for all enormous things;	y¡ `a¨¢mu turj¡ likulli `a¨¢min	يَا عَظِيمُ تُرْجَى لِكُلِّ عَظِيمٍ
Please, forgive me my serious offences	aghfir liya al`a¨¢ma	اغْفِرْ لِيَ الْعَظِيمَ
because none can forgive the serious sin except the All-great Lord.	fa’innhu l¡ yaghfiru aldhdhanba al`a¨¢ma ill¡ alrrabbu al`a¨¢mu	فَإنَّهُ لا يَغْفِرُ الذَّنْبَ الْعَظِيمَ إلاَّ الرَّبُّ الْعَظِيمُ.

I seek the protection of the light of Your Face that has lit the heavens and the earth	a`£dhu bin£ri wa jhika alladhy a¤¡‘at lahu alssam¡w¡tu wal-ara¤£na	أَعُوذُ بِنُورِ وَجْهِكَ الَّذِي أَضَاءَتْ لَهُ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالأَرَضُونَ،
and has removed all darkness	w¡nkashafat lahu al¨¨ulum¡tu	وَانْكَشَفَتْ لَهُ الظُّلُمَاتُ،
and has made active all the affairs of the past and the coming generations	wa ¥ala¦a `alayhi amru al-awwal¢na wal-¡khir¢na	وَصَلَحَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْرُ الأَوَّلِينَ وَالآخِرِينَ
against Your sudden chastisement	min fuj-ati naqimatika	مِنْ فُجْأَةِ نَقِمَتِكَ،
and against withdrawing the good health that You have granted me	wa min ta¦w¢li `¡fiyatika	وَمِنْ تَحْوِيلِ عَافِيَتِكَ،
and against the vanishing of Your bounties.	wa min zawal-i ni`matika	وَمِنْ زَوَالِ نِعْمَتِكَ.
O Allah: (please) grant me a heart that is pious and pure,	all¡humma arzuqny qalban taqiyyan naqiyyan	اللّهُمَّ ارْزُقْنِي قَلْباً تَقِيّاً نَقِيّاً
and is released from polytheism,	wa mina alshshirki bar¢’an	وَمِنَ الشِّرْكِ بَرِيئاً
and is neither atheist nor unhappy.	l¡ k¡firan wa l¡ shaqiyyan	لا كَافِراً وَلا شَقِيّاً.

I am putting my face on the ground	`affartu wajhy f¢ alttur¡bi	عَفَّرْتُ وَجْهِي فِي التُّرَابِ
and it is my duty to prostrate myself before You	wa ¦uqqa l¢ an asjuda laka	وَحُقَّ لِي أَنْ أَسْجُدَ لَكَ
