From Ususl Kafi
3278‒4. Muḥammad ibn Yaḥyā (‒) Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad (‒) al-
Ḥajjāl* and Bukayr ibn Muḥammad (‒) Abū Isḥāq ash-Sha‘īrī (‒) Yazīd
ibn Kalthamah that Abū ‘Abdillāh or Abū Ja‘far (‘a.s.) said:
“When you wake up in the morning, say:
إِذَا أَصْبَحْتَ أَصْبَحْتُ بِللَِّ مُؤْمِناً عَلَى دِينِ مَُمَّدٍ وَ سُنَّتِهِ وَ دِينِ عَلِيٍّ وَ سُنَّتِهِ وَ
ِينِ الَْوْصِيَاءِ وَ سُنَّتِهِمْ آمَنْتُ بِسِرِّهِمْ وَ عَلَنِيَتِهِمْ وَ شَاهِدِهِمْ وَ غَائِبِهِمْ وَ أَعُوذُ بِللَِّ مَِّا
اسْتَعَاذَ مِنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَِّ وَ عَلِيٌّ وَ الَْوْصِيَاءُ وَ أَرْغَبُاللَِّ فِيمَا رَغِبُوا إِلَيْهِ
وَ لَ حَوْلَ وَ لَ قُوَّةَ إِلَّ بِللَِّ.
‘I arise a believer in Allāh,upon the religion of Muḥammad and his sunnah, the religion of ‘Alī and
his sunnah, and the religion of the Legatees (i.e. the infallible Imāms) and
their sunnah. I believe in their secrets and open declarations, when they are
present or hidden; and I seek Allāh’s refuge from that which the Messenger
of Allāh (ṣ) sought refuge, as did ‘Alī (‘a.s.) and the Legatees; and I desire
from Allāh that which they desired from Him, and there is no might or
power except by [the will of] Allāh.’”
“He (‘a.s.) said: ‘Amīr al-Mu’minīn (‘a.s.) used to say in the mornings:
سُبْحَانَ اللَِّ
الْمَلِكِ الْقُدُّوسِ ثَلَثاً اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ زَوَالِ نِعْمَتِكَ وَ مِنْ تَْوِيلِ عَافِيَتِكَ وَ مِنْ
فَجْأَةِ نَقِمَتِكَ وَ مِنْ دَرَكِ الشَّقَاءِ وَ مِنْ شَرِّ مَا سَبَقَ فِ الْكِتَابِ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّ أَسْأَلُكَ بِعِزَّةِ
مُلْكِكَ وَ شِدَّةِ قُوَّتِكَ وَ بِعَظِيمِ سُلْطَانِكَ وَ بِقُدْرَتِكَ عَلَى خَلْقِكَ
“Glory be to Allāh, the King, the Most Holy [thrice].” [Then he would
say:] “O Allāh, I seek refuge with You from the waning of Your blessings,
change in the good health You have granted, the suddenness of Your
chastisement, from falling into wretchedness, and from the evil that has
previously befallen in the Book. O Allāh, I beg You by the glory of Your
kingdom, the might of Your strength, the greatness of Your dominion and
Your power over Your creation.”’”
3312‒38. ‘Alī ibn Muḥammad (‒) some of his co-sectarians (‒) Muḥam-mad
ibn Sinān (‒) Abū Sa‘īd al-Makārī (‒) Abū Ḥamzah that Abū Ja‘far (‘a.s.) said:
“I asked him: ‘What is meant by the verse wherein Allāh says: And
Ibrāhīm who fulfilled [his duty], [Qur., 53:37]?’ He [‘a.s.] said: ‘Some
words that he pronounced regularly.’ I asked: ‘What were these words?’
He [‘a.s.] said: ‘Whenever he woke up in the morning he would say the
following thrice:And he said the
same thing thrice in the evenings.
أَصْبَحْتُ وَ رَبِّ مَْمُودٌ أَصْبَحْتُ لَ أُشْرِكُ بِللَِّ شَيْئاً وَ لَ أَدْعُو مَعَهُ
إِلَاً وَ لَ أَتَِّذُ مِنْ دُونِهِ وَلِيّاً
“I awake and my Lord be praised. I awake without
ascribing anything as a partner to Allāh, and I do not call upon any other
god with Him, nor do I take any guardian besides Him.”
I asked: ‘What did He mean when He said about Nūḥ: Indeed he
was a grateful servant [Qur., 17:3]?’ He [‘a.s.] replied: ‘Some words that
he pronounced regularly.’ I asked: ‘What were these words?’ He [‘a.s.]
said: ‘Whenever he awoke in the morning he would say: He
would say this thrice every morning and thrice every evening.’
إِذَا أَصْبَحَ قَالَ أَصْبَحْتُ أُشْهِدُكَ مَا أَصْبَحَتْ بِ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ
أَوْ عَافِيَةٍ فِ دِينٍ أَوْ دُنْيَا فَإِنَّهَا مِنْكَ وَحْدَكَ لَ شَرِيكَ لَكَ فَلَكَ الَْمْدُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَ لَكَ
الشُّكْرُ كَثِير
“I wake up taking
You as my witness that whatever I have awoken with of blessings and wellbeing
in my religion or of this world – it is all from You alone, without and
partner. So, all praise belongs to You for this, and plentiful gratitude.”
I further
asked: ‘What did He mean when He said about Yaḥyā: And a compassion
from us and a purity [Qur., 19:13]?’ He [‘a.s.] answered: ‘The compassion
of Allāh.’ I said: ‘What was the compassion of Allāh that reached him?’ He
[‘a.s.] said: ‘Whenever he would say: “My Lord” Allāh, to Whom belong
Might and Majesty would say: “I am here O Yaḥyā!”’”

‘I arise a believer in Allāh,upon the religion of Muḥammad and his sunnah, the religion of ‘Alī and
his sunnah, and the religion of the Legatees (i.e. the infallible Imāms) and
their sunnah. I believe in their secrets and open declarations, when they are
present or hidden; and I seek Allāh’s refuge from that which the Messenger
of Allāh (ṣ) sought refuge, as did ‘Alī (‘a.s.) and the Legatees; and I desire
from Allāh that which they desired from Him, and there is no might or
power except by [the will of] Allāh.’”
“He (‘a.s.) said: ‘Amīr al-Mu’minīn (‘a.s.) used to say in the mornings:
سُبْحَانَ اللَِّ

“Glory be to Allāh, the King, the Most Holy [thrice].” [Then he would
say:] “O Allāh, I seek refuge with You from the waning of Your blessings,
change in the good health You have granted, the suddenness of Your
chastisement, from falling into wretchedness, and from the evil that has
previously befallen in the Book. O Allāh, I beg You by the glory of Your
kingdom, the might of Your strength, the greatness of Your dominion and
Your power over Your creation.”’”

ibn Sinān (‒) Abū Sa‘īd al-Makārī (‒) Abū Ḥamzah that Abū Ja‘far (‘a.s.) said:
“I asked him: ‘What is meant by the verse wherein Allāh says: And
Ibrāhīm who fulfilled [his duty], [Qur., 53:37]?’ He [‘a.s.] said: ‘Some
words that he pronounced regularly.’ I asked: ‘What were these words?’
He [‘a.s.] said: ‘Whenever he woke up in the morning he would say the
following thrice:And he said the
same thing thrice in the evenings.
أَصْبَحْتُ وَ رَبِّ مَْمُودٌ أَصْبَحْتُ لَ أُشْرِكُ بِللَِّ شَيْئاً وَ لَ أَدْعُو مَعَهُ
إِلَاً وَ لَ أَتَِّذُ مِنْ دُونِهِ وَلِيّاً
“I awake and my Lord be praised. I awake without
ascribing anything as a partner to Allāh, and I do not call upon any other
god with Him, nor do I take any guardian besides Him.”
I asked: ‘What did He mean when He said about Nūḥ: Indeed he
was a grateful servant [Qur., 17:3]?’ He [‘a.s.] replied: ‘Some words that
he pronounced regularly.’ I asked: ‘What were these words?’ He [‘a.s.]
said: ‘Whenever he awoke in the morning he would say: He
would say this thrice every morning and thrice every evening.’
إِذَا أَصْبَحَ قَالَ أَصْبَحْتُ أُشْهِدُكَ مَا أَصْبَحَتْ بِ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ

“I wake up taking
You as my witness that whatever I have awoken with of blessings and wellbeing
in my religion or of this world – it is all from You alone, without and
partner. So, all praise belongs to You for this, and plentiful gratitude.”
I further
asked: ‘What did He mean when He said about Yaḥyā: And a compassion
from us and a purity [Qur., 19:13]?’ He [‘a.s.] answered: ‘The compassion
of Allāh.’ I said: ‘What was the compassion of Allāh that reached him?’ He
[‘a.s.] said: ‘Whenever he would say: “My Lord” Allāh, to Whom belong
Might and Majesty would say: “I am here O Yaḥyā!”’”

Supplication of ilhaah from imam sadiq (a.s.) narrated from imam mahdi (a.s.) Abu Naeem Ansari says: I was living on rent in Mecca near the Rukn and a group of men from the tribe Muqassira were also present. Mahmoodi, Allaan e Kulayni, Abu Haysum Dinari and Abu Ja’far Ahwal Hamdani were present amongst them and totally there were about thirty men. I didn’t know of any other pure-hearted Shia from their group except Mohammad bin Qasim Alavi Aqeeqi.
It was the sixth day of Zil Hijjah, 293 Hijrah, when suddenly a young man who was busy in circumambulation wearing two clothes of Ahraam and holding his shoes in his hand, came towards us. His reverence was overwhelming and we stood up involuntarily; all of us stood up from their positions without any exception and greeted him with Salaam. Then he sat down and looked towards his right and left, then said:
Do you people know what Imam Sadiq (A.S.) used to say in the supplication of Il’haah?
We asked: What was it? He said: He used to say:
