O` Allah I ask You in the name of two grand personalities born in month of Rajab-Mohammad the second of Ali and his son Ali ibne Mohammad.

16)Dua'a by Imam Sajjad (a.s) & Imam Jafar Sadiq (a.s)  |  Rajab Duas from Sahifa Mehdi(atfs):-No1 / No2 / No3

17): Sayyid Ibn Tawus has also reported from the Holy Prophet (a.s) that if one offers a four-Rak`ah prayer on Friday in Rajab between the obligatory Zuhr and `ASr Prayers in each Rak`ah of which the Surah of al-Fatihah is recited once and the Ayat al-Kursiy is repeated seven times and the Surah of al-Tawhid is repeated five times and then the following invocation is repeated ten times—if one offers this prayer, Almighty Allah will decide for him, from the day on which this prayer is offered up to the day of his death, one Thousand rewards a day, and will give him a city built with ruby in Paradise for each verse (of the Holy Quran) that he recites, and will give him a palace built with white pearls in Paradise for each letter that he recites from the Holy Qur'an, and will give him in marriage the Women of Paradise, and will be satisfied with him completely, and will include him with the (true) worshippers, and will seal his life with happiness and forgiveness... etc. The invocation is as follows:

I seek the forgiveness of Allah and I pray Him for accepting of my repentance.

astaghfiru allaha alladhy la ilaha illa huwa wa asaluhu alttawbata

أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللّه وَأَسْأَلُهُ التَّوْبَةَ.

Fourth: Shaykh al-Tusi has also mentioned that the following supplication is  recited each day in Rajab:

 وَمَنَحَ فَأَفْضَلَ.

O He Who has elevated so honorably that all sights have missed Him;

يَا مَنْ سَمَا فِي الْعِزِّ فَفَاتَ نَوَاظِرَ الأبْصَارِ،

and has approached so gently that He has passed all apprehensions.

Rajab Month Duas Index

A Commentary on the Dua PDF    Commentary Text

The following du`a is recommended after the daily obligatory prayers in the month of Rajab.The du`a, according to Shaykh `Abbas Qummi in MafateeHul Jinaan has been taught by Imam Ja`far as-Sadiq (a). Sayyid Ibn Tawus has narrated that Muhammad ibn Dhakwan—known as 'al-Sajjad' due to his remarkable, long prostration during which he used to weep so heavily that he lost his sight—asked Imam Ja`far al-Sadiq (a.s), saying, "May Allah accept me as ransom for you! We are now in Rajab; I therefore please you to teach me a supplication due to which Almighty Allah may help me." Hence, the Imam (a.s) asked him to write down the following:

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

 

O Allah, bless Muhammad and his household.
O He from whom I can hope for all goodness And I am safe from His anger at every evil.

O He who gives a lot in exchange of a little.
O He who gives to one who asks Him.
O He who gives to one who does not ask Him and does not know Him,
Out of His affection and mercy.

Give me, for my request is only to You alone, All the good of this world and all the good of the Hereafter.
Keep away from me, for my request is only to You alone, All the evil of this world and the evil of the Hereafter. For indeed it is not diminishing what is given by You. Increase (for) me from Your bounty, O The Generous.

 

(Then the 6th Imam held his beard in his left hand and gave a movement to the index finger in his right hand saying :)

O The Sublime and The Distinguished,
O The Bountiful and The Magnanimous,
O the Gracious and the Mighty,
Save my grey hairs of the beard from the fire (of Hell).

Bismillahir-raHmaanir-raHeem.  Allahumma Swalli `alaa muHammadinw wa-aali muHammad.

Yaa man arjoohoo likulli khayr Wa-aamanu sakhaTahoo `inda kulli sharr Yaa manyu`Til-katheera bil-qaleel Yaa manyu`Tee man sa-alah Yaa manyu`Tee man lam yas-alhu wa-mal-lam ya`rifhu taHannunam minhu waraHmah A`tinee bimasalatee iyyaak Jamee`a khayrid-dunyaa wajamee`a khayril-aakhirah WaSrif `annee bimas-alatee iyyaak Jamee`a sharrid-dunyaa washarril aakhirah Fainnahoo ghayru manqooSin maa a`Tayt Wazidnee min faDhlika yaa Kareem

(Then the 6th Imam held his beard in his left hand and gave a movement to the index finger in his right hand saying :)

Yaa dhaljalaali walikraam

Yadhal-manni waTTawl
Harrim shaybatee `alan-naar.

Common mistakes while reciting the above dua'a:

The dua "يا من ارجوه لكل خير" (yaa man arjoohu li kulli khayr) is commonly recited after prayers during this month. Many people have unknowingly misinterpreted the tradition accompanying the dua and make these common mistakes:

- The tradition says to hold your beard in your left hand while moving the index finger of your right hand. It doesn't say to move your hand or your arm. Swinging your arm around left and right doesn't fit with what the tradition says. Instead, keep your arm and hand steady and still and move only your pointing finger back and forth.

- The narration actually says that the Imam (a) held his beard and moved his finger throughout the whole dua, not just the part that begins with

يا ذا الجلال و الاكرام (ya dhal jalaali wal ikraam). This can be proven by carefully examining the whole tradition.

- Women are exempted from the accompany rites and can simply recite the dua while lifting their hands towards the sky as is typical when asking from Allah.

O He Whom alone I hope for all good things;

وآمَنُ سَخَطَهُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ عَثْرَةٍ،

wa amanu sakhatahu `inda kulli sharrin,

and Whose wrath I do not expect when I do wrong;

يَا مَنْ يُعْطِي الْكَثِيرَ بِالْقَلِيلِ،

ya man yu`ty alkathira bilqalili,

O He Who recompenses the little deed with very much reward;

يَا مَنْ يُعْطَي مَنْ سَأَلَهُ

ya man yu`ty man salahu,

O He Who answers him who begs Him;

يَا مَنْ يُعْطي مَنْ لَمْ يَسْأَلْهُ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَعْرِفْهُ تَحَنُّناً مِنْهُ وَرَحْمَةً،

ya man yu`ty man lam yasalhu wa man lam ya`rifhu tahannnan minhu wa rahmatan,

O He Who gives those who do not ask Him and do not even recognize Him out of His kindness and mercifulness:

أَعْطِنِي بِمَسْأَلتِي مِنْ جَمِيعِ خَيْرِ الدُّنْيَا،

a`tiny bimasalaty iiyyaka jami`a khayri alddunya

(please do) give me, for I pray You, the whole welfare of this world

وَجَمِيعِ خَيْرِ الآخِرَةِ،

wa jami`a khayri alakhirati,

and the whole welfare of the Next World;

وَاصْرِفْ عَنّي بِمَسْألَتي إيَّاكَ جَميعَ شَرِّ الدُّنْيا وَشَرِّ الآخِرَة

wasrif `anni bimasalaty iiyyaka jami`a sharr alddunya wa sharr alakhirati,

and save me, for I pray You, the whole evil of this world and the Next World

فَإنَّهُ غَيْرُ مَنْقُوصٍ مَا أَعْطَيْتَ،

fa'innhu ghayru manqusin ma a`tayta,

Verily, all that which You give is unblemished.

وَزِدْنِي مِنْ سَعَةِ فَضْلِكَ يَا كَرِيمُ.

wa zidny min fazlika yakarimu.

(Please do) increase Your favors upon me, O the All-generous.

The narrator then added that Imam al-Sadiq (a.s), then, grasped his beard with his left hand, while reciting this supplication, and moved ceaselessly his forefinger of his right hand. He then uttered the following:

يَا ذَاَ الْجَلالِ وَالإكْرَامِ،

ya dhal-jalali wal-ikrami

O the Lord of Majesty and Honor;

يَا ذَاَ النَّعْمَاءِ وَالْجُودِ،

ya dhalnna`ma'i wal-judi

O the Lord of bliss and magnanimity;

يَا ذَاَ الْمَنِّ وَالطَّوْلِ،

ya dhal-manni walttawli

O the Lord of favor and munificence;

حَرِّمْ شَيْبَتِي عَلَى النَّارِ.

harrim shaybaty `ala alnnari

(please do) rescue my white-hair beard from Hellfire.

 

SEEKING THE ABSOLUTE  

from www.al-mubin.org

A Summarized Commentary of a Daily Supplication of the Holy Month of Rajab al-Murajjab taught by Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq ('A) By: Muhammad Khalfan

THE SOURCE OF THE DU'A Abu al-hasan 'Ali bin Muhammad al-Bursi said: al-husayn bin Muhammad bin Shayban narrated to us, who narrated from hamza bin

al-Qasim al-'Alawi al-'Abbasi, who narrated from Muhammad bin 'Abdullah bin 'Imran al-Barqi, who narrated from Muhammad bin 'Ali

al-Hamadani, who narrated from Muhammad bin Sinan who narrated a lengthy tradition from Muhammad al-Sajjad1 in which he said:

I said to Aba 'Abdillah ('a): May I be made your ransom. This is the month of Rajab. Teach me a supplication by which Allah would benefit

me. He said: So Imam al-Sadiq ('a) said to me: Write down: Bismillahi al- Rahman al-Rahim…and recite every day in Rajab in the mornings and

evenings and after the daily prayers during the day and night: يَا مَنْ أَرْجُوهُ لِكُلِّ خَيٍْْ وَ آمَنُ سَخَطَهُ عِنْدَكُلِّ شَرٍّ يَا مَنْ يُعْطِي الكَْثِيَْ

YAA man arju-hu….I call him and say "O One on whom..." because although He is near to me than my jugular vein (Holy Qur‟an, 50:16), I am extremely remote from His Absolute Perfection. Hence I call Him.

In the supplication of Jawshan al-Kabir we address Allah as: "O most distant of all the distant ones, O nearest of all near ones" (Ref: Mafatih al-Jinan of Sh Abbas Qummi)

Yaa man arju-HUOnly "on Him" do I pin my hopes, because He is the primary cause of everything. Only He is the Independent giver and owner of every creation moment by moment. This is established by the Qur‟an, Holy traditions, Spiritual Unveiling, and intellectual cognition. Imam Zayn al-„Abidin („A) in his supplication of the Hopeful Ones (Munajat al-Raajin) says: "How can I have hope on other than You, whilst all good is in Your Hand?" (Ref: Mafatih al-Jinan of ShAbbas Qummi)

Yaa man ARJU-huI am "hopeful", because He Himself has said La taqnatu min Rahmati Allah (Do not despair in Allah‟s Mercy (Holy Qur‟an, 39:53)). I am hopeful because "to Him alone belong all the treasures" (Holy Qur‟an, 63:7). I am hopeful because according to a tradition of Imam al-Sadiq („A), a believer is not a believer if the light of hope does not exist in his heart. (Ref: Al-Kafi of Shaykh Kulayni, v.2, p. 67). In fact as Amir al-mu‟minin („A) has taught us in the supplication of Kumayl "hope" is my capital asset. "Irham man ra‟sumaalihi al-rajaa" (Have mercy on one whose capital asset is hope). (Ref: Mafatih al-Jinan of Shaykh „Abbas Qummi)

Yaa man ARJU-hu li-kulli khayrI always hope, because despair is a great sin. [the aorist verb (al-fi‟l al-mudhaari‟) arju here signifies an ongoing event.)

Yaa man arju-hu li-KULLI khayrI am hopeful, for "every" good because my aspirations are exalted. I do not merely aspire for an inanimate, vegetable or animal life. I am a human being who by nature always opts for the best and every good. Hence I do not want to leave aside any kind of good whatsoever.

Yaa man arju-hu li-kulli KHAYRI hope what Allah has made naturally attractive to my innate disposition. The meaning of khayr is "something that one is naturallyinclined to".

 وَآمَنُ سَخَطَهُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ شَرٍّ  Wa amanu sakha§a-hu 'inda kulli sharr

And I am safe from His displeasure at every instance of evil

Wa AAMANU sakhata-hu „inda kulli SHARRWhenever I sin I am not immediately punished. Sharr in Qur‟an is employed to denote sin. Consider the verse […wa man ya‟mal mithqaal dharratin sharran yarahu (and whosoever does an atom‟s weight of evil shall see it)] (Holy Qur‟an,99:8)

Wa AAMANU sakhata-hu „inda kulli SHARRWhenever I sin (SHARR), although its effect or rather its reality is reflected in the realms of barzakh and qiyama, which are the higher levels of created existence, the material cover of the body always protects me (AAMANU). I cannot behold the snakes, the scorpions and the fire that I have lit for myself. The material body serves as a shield.

Wa aamanu SAKHATA-huWhenever I sin I am protected from His punishment (SAKAHATAHU). The word sakhat which means displeasure cannot be conceived to be like human displeasure, which is a kind of change of state. According to a tradition, His displeasure is His very punishment. (Ref: Al-Tawhid of Shaykh al-Saduq, p. 169)

Wa aamanu SAKHATA-hu „inda kulli SHARRSometimes sharr is also employed to denote a calamity, and sakhat (Divine displeasure) refers to the ultimate state of wretchedness. Hence, in case of every calamity that befalls me, I am always safe from His displeasure. Hence, circumstances of evil (sharr) instead of being signs for wretchedness for me, are signs for self-development and freedom from sin and Hell-Fire.

In a beautiful tradition narrated by al-Ahwazi in his Kitab al-Mu‟min, Imam al-Sadiq („A) is reported to have said: "Surely Allah does not destine anything for a Muslim save that it is good (khayr) for him."

 

يَا مَنْ يُعْطِي الكَْثِيَْ بِالقَْلِيلِ Ya man yu'§i al-kathira bi'l qalil

O one who gives abundance in return to very little

Yaa man YU‟TI al-katheeraHe always gives us abundance in return for very little.

Ya man yu‟ti AL-KATHEERA BI AL-QALEELI…Every good that we do Allah gives us tenfold or even more. In fact in some verses no measure has been determined for it. See: [Man ja‟a bi al-hasanati falahu „ashru amthaaliha- Whoever brings a good deed, he shall have ten like it] (Holy Qur‟an, 6:160)

Ya man yu‟ti AL-KATHEERA BI ALQALEELI…

Whatever is abundant for us is very little for Him. Hence His qaleel is our katheer. Perhaps this verse is trying to say that "O One who always gives abundance through what is very little for Him.

 

يَا مَنْ يُعْطِي مَنْ سَأَلهَُ   Ya man yu'§i man sa'ala-hu

O one who always bestows on whosoever asks Him

Yaa man yu‟ti man SA‟ALA-huWe should really ASK Him. When He witnesses REAL NEED in us for whatever we ask, He would not stop giving. In another beautiful supplication of the Holy month of Rajab we say: "Your habit is to do good to the wrong doers" [Ref: Mafatih al-Jinan of Shaykh „Abbas Qummi]. If that is the case, what about those who sincerely supplicate for being availed with goodness?

Yaa man yu‟ti man sa‟ala-HUTherefore we should anticipate everything from Him alone. No other means can be taken to have any effect save through His graceand permission.

Yaa man yu‟ti man sa‟ala-HU…(O One who gives to whosoever asks for Him). This is when we consider the third person pronoun "hu" affixed to sa‟ala-hu to refer to Allah, and our prayer is to seek Him and His proximity alone.

 

يَا مَنْ يُعْطِي مَنْ لمَْ يَسْأَلهُْ وَمَنْ لمَْ يَعْرِفْهُتَََنُّنا مِنْهُ وَرَحْمَة

Ya man yu'§i man lam yas'al-hu wa man lam ya'rif-hu tahannunan mihu wa Rahma

O one who bestows on one who does not ask Him, nor does he know Him, out of kindness and mercy

Ya man yu‟ti man LAM YAS‟AL-HUMany of us vocalize our apparent desires, which in reality are notour needs and wants. Nevertheless, Almighty Allah provides us with what we ask Him, and enables us toemploy that in His way.

Ya man yu‟ti man LAM YAS‟AL-HUMany of the people despite not asking Him, nor knowing Him are graced by Him through His kindness in mercy. This is because His mercy is all-embracing. He is al-Rahman, and hence he gives existence to all and also bestows them with the provisions essential to wake up and realize the truth. He knows when and how a dead heart can get to life, while we are oblivious about that.

أَعْطِنِِْ بَِِسْأَلتَِِ إِيَّاكَجََِيعَ خَيِْْ الدُّنْيَا وَجََِيعَ خَيِْْ الْخِرَةِ

A'§ini bimas'alati iyyaka jami'a khayr al-dunya wa jami'a khayr al-akhirah

Avail me by my asking you all the good of this world and all the good of the Hereafter

A‟tini bi-mas‟alati iyyaa-ka JAMI‟A KHAYR AL-DUNYA WA JAMI‟A KHAYR AL-AAKHIRASince the dunya is

a lower manifestation of aakhira, if we seek all the good of this world, we have also sought all the good of the hereafter. The criteria of something good therefore is when it is good in both the realms of existence. We should therefore not be deceived to conjecture that heavily engaging ourselves with the pleasures of the world is what "khayr al-dunya" is all about.

A‟tini bi-mas‟alati iyyaa-ka JAMI‟A khayr al-dunya wa JAMI‟A khayr al-aakhiraThis verse reveals an elevated spirit who in reality seeks the Absolute. We said earlier that the root meaning of khayr is "inclination". Hence because the human being is innately inclined to all the perfect attributes of Allah and does not yearn for them in a limited form, He seeks the ABSOLUTE. He yearns for all power, all-knowledge, all-beauty. In short he aspires for JAMI‟A khayr al-dunya wa JAMI‟A khayr alaakhira.

 

وَاصْرِفْ عَنِِّ بَِِسْأَلتَِإِيَّاكَ جََِيعَ شَرِّ الدُّنْيَا وَشَرِّ الْخِرَةِ

Wa¥rif 'anni bimas'alati iyyaka jami'a shar al-dunya wa sharr al-akhirah

And avert from me by my asking You,all the evil of the world and the evil of the Hereafter.

WASRIF „ANNIThe human being has been innately fashioned to seek advantage (jalb al-manfa„a) and dispel harm (daf„ al-dharar). Every evil is harmful to the human being. And hence to ask Allah to dispel every evil is to respond to the innate call of the heart SHARR al-dunya wa al-aakhiraSharr in reality is the

absence of good. It is not an existential reality (amrwujudi). Hence we are in reality asking Allah to protectus from imperfection. And since the world is amanifestation of the Hereafter, we are seeking for theprevention of such imperfections that pertain to thisworld as well as the Hereafter.

 

فَإِنَّهُ غَيُْْ مَنْقُوصٍ مَا أَعْطَيْتَ  Fa innahu ghayru manqasin ma a'§ayt For surely whatever You give is not decreased [from your treasure]

Fa innahu GHAYRU MANQUSIN MAA ATAYTA…Because whatever He provides does not separate from Him (lam yalid), but rather is His action, nothing decreases from His kingdom (ghayru manqus).

Rather, because when He provides to a receptacle which contain great knowledge, it widens, He provides more, and this process always continues. Hence the provisions of His treasures instead of decreasing always increase.

In Du‟a al-Iftitah we recite "…wa la taziduhu kathrat al- „ataa illa judan wa karaman" (And the abundance of His bestowals does not increase save His openhandedness and generosity.)

Fa innahu GHAYRU MANQUSIN MAA A‟TAYTA…Another meaning of ghayru manqus is "not deficient". Since there is no kind of stinginess on the part of Allah, whatever He provides is perfect. The cause(s) of imperfection is from our side. The rain is provided pure and limpid, but our containers and receptacles have been contaminated. So if we receive contaminated water, it is our own fault and not His. If we come with a broken container, the loss of water is due to the receptacle and not the giver of water. We should seek for a spacious heart (al-qalb al-mashruh) in order to be able to enjoy great quantities of spiritual waters.

Fa innahu GHAYRU MANQUSIN MAA A‟TAYTA…The descent of existence from the ABSOLUTE PERFECTION brings about deficiency. Hence deficiency is not provided.

 

وَزِدْنِِ مِنْ فَضْلِكَ يَا كَرِيمُ  Wa zidni min fa¤lika Ya Karima

And increase in me from your favors O Honorable One.

Wa zidni min fadhlika YA KAREEMUInvoking the name Ya Kareemu reveals that we are asking for karaama (greatness). And the most kareem according to Allah is the most God-wary and pious. Inna akramakum „inda Allahi atqaakum (Indeed the most honorable and great near Allah is one who is most God-wary of you (Holy Qur‟an, 49:13)). Hence we are asking increase in being God-wary. And since the Holy Qur‟an teaches us "If you are thankful, I shall increase you"(Holy Qur‟an,14:7) we must struggle to be God-wary in order to get a higher level of taqwa.

Wa zidni min FADHLIKAWe employed the words fadhlika (Your favor) because in actuality whatever Allah gives us, whether the succor of obeying him, understanding the depths of His religion, performing good deeds, or receiving material and spiritual provisions, is only a favor. We have nothing of our own so that we can anticipate something in return. Everything is from Him and His, and will always remain so. This is a Qur‟anic and intellectual reality.

 

يَا ذَا الْْلَاَلِ وَااِكْرَامِ Ya dha al-Jalali wa al-Ikram

O the Possessor of Majesty and Greatness

YAA DHAL JALALI WA AL-IKRAAMAccording to the tradition that reports this supplication, Imam al-Sadiq („A) raised his left hand, held his beard and moving the index finger of his right hand recited these concluding verses that reveal the beautiful names of Allah: "Ya Dhal Jalali wal Ikraam,Ya Dha al-Na‟maa‟I wal Jud…."

YAA DHAL JALALI WA AL-IKRAAMIn a tradition, Abu Basir asks Imam al-Sadiq („A) about the meaning of raising one‟s hands during supplication, and the Imam („A) speaks of five ways (1) As for al-ta‟awwudh (seeking refuge in Allah from Satan), it is when your palms should face qibla. (2) As for du‟a (calling Allah) for His provision (rizq), it is when you should spread out your palms and make them face the sky, (3) As for al-tabattul (complete connection to Allah and detachment from other than Him), it is when you point with your index finger. (4) As for al-ibtihaal (extreme supplication), it is when you should raise both your hands until they align with your head, (5) As for al-tadharru‟ (expressing humility near Allah), it is when you move your index finger near your face, and that is secret supplication.(Ref: „Uddat al-Daa‟I of Ibn Fahd al-Hilli, p. 183)

YAA DHAL JALALI WA AL-IKRAAMHence moving our index figures signifies humility on our part. Therefore we should struggle to ensure that our heart reflects what our speech expresses.

YAA DHAL JALALI WA AL-IKRAAMAccording to exegetes the Name Dhu al-Jalaali wal Ikraam encapsulates the Divine Attributes of Beauty and Majesty. Invoking such a name, perhaps informs us that all what we sought previously in summarized in this name. If one becomes the manifestation of this name, he has attained his goal in life. He has become the manifestation of the name Allah, which exemplifies all the attributes of Divine Beauty and Majesty.

يَا ذَا النّعْمَااِ وَالْْوُْدِ   Ya Dha al-na'ma'i wa al-jad

O Possessor of Extended Blessings and Generosity

Yaa DHA AL-NA‟MAAI wa al-jud…Some opine that al- Na‟maa signifies "al-ni‟ma al-mumtadda" (extended blessing). Some say that it refers to hidden blessings. Others believe that it refers to diversity of blessings. Hence He is the possessor and owner of diverse blessings.

YAA DHA AL-NA‟MAAI WA AL-JUD…Invoking these beautiful names, we say to Allah, that it is You who gives every kind of blessing. Hence bless us with what we have asked you for. Likewise you are the Absolute Generous (al-jawad al-mutlaq) in reality. Any generosity manifested in anyone is in reality Your property. Hence You alone can bestow us what we have asked You for.

 

يَا ذَا ااَْنِّ وَالطّوْلِ   Ya dha al-manni waal-§awl

O Possessor of Weighty & Enduring Blessings

The noun mann means "a great favor". And when the article al is prefixed to it, it can signify a specific great favor. Perhaps it refers to the specific great blessing of sending the Holy Prophet (S) as the Messenger of Allah on the 27th of Rajab. The Holy Qur‟an when referring to this has employed the verb "manna Allaha…" (Allah bestowed great favor…) (Holy Qur‟an, 3:164). The word mann is also employed for the blessing of guidance. (Holy Qur‟an, 49:17). In short, He alone is the owner of every great favor.

Tawl denotes "an enduring blessing". Hence He is the giver and thus owner of enduring blessings.

And the spirit of guidance is crystallized in a person when he exemplifies the attributes of Allah. Hence because only He is the owner of the great blessing of hidaya (guidance), it is correct to invoke Him with this name.

And only He has the power to guide independently. Whosoever would like to guide anyone can never do so independently. Without His permission no kind of change can transpire whatsoever.

حَرِّمْ شَيْ تِِْ عَلىَ النَّارِ    °arrim shaybati 'la al-Nar

Prohibit my grey hair to burn in the Fire

HARRIM shaybati „ala AL-NAAR…Perhaps this expression taught by Imam al-Sadiq („A) is one of the praiseworthy ways of seeking freedom from Hell Fire.

Harrim SHAYBATI „ala al-Naar…Perhaps grey hair (shayba) refers to one‟s transformed state of fear on the Judgment Day. Imam „Ali („A) is reported to have said: "O servants of Allah, indeed after the resurrection is that which is more severe than the grave, the day when a small child‟s hair would turn grey (yawma yashibu fihi al-sagheer)…" (Ref: Al-Amaali of Shaykh Mufid, p. 265).

Harrim SHAYBATI „ala al-Naar…Some scholars like the late Shaykh al-Mishkini in his prayer manual al-Misbahal-Munir, after having mentioned this supplication, suggest that those who do not have grey hair, instead of saying "…harrim shaybati „ala al-naar" (…prohibit my grey hair on the Hell Fire) may say "…harrim sha‟ri „ala al-Naar" (…prohibit my hair on the Hell Fire) (Ref: Al-Misbah al-Munir of Mirza „Ali Mishkini, p. 252). He hasnot substantiated this with any particular hadith. It is only a suggestion on his part.

In a beautiful tradition from Imam „Ali („A) we are told,"Laa tantifu al-shayb fa innahu noorul Muslim" (do not uproot grey hair for surely it is the light of a Muslim)(Ref: Bihar al-Anwaar of „Allama al-Majlisi, v.10, p.91)

Harrim SHAYBATI „ala al-Naar…In a very beautiful whispering supplication (MUNAJAAT), Imam Zayn al-Abidin („A) says: "Ilahi al-shayba noorun min anwaarik fa muhaalun an tuhriqa nooruka bi naarika" (O God, grey hair is a light from Your lights. Therefore it is impossible that You burn Your light with Your fire.") (Ref: Bihar al-Anwaar of „Allama al-Majlisi, v.91, p.139). Perhaps Imam al-Sadiq („A) would like to allude to this very point. In saying,"…harrim shaybati „ala al-Naar", he in reality would like to say the following: "Because my hair are grey, and thus they exemplify a light from Your lights, and because You cannot burn Your light withYour fire, then forbid my grey hair on Hell Fire."

May the Almighty enable us understand the depths of this beautiful supplication as we continue our journey to His proximity
