THE INVOCATIONS OF THE MORNINGS AND EVENINGS
Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) has said, “ when a person recites the following ten times before the sunrise and before the sunset every day, all his sins committed on that day will be pardoned:
La ilaha il Allaho wahdahu la shareeka lahu lahul mulko wa lahul hamdo yohi wa yumeeto wa yohi wa huwa hayyun la yamooto be yadahil khaire wa huwa ala kulle shaiyin qadeer
|
Imam Mohammed Baqir (a.s.) has said, “ One who recites the Salawat on Mohammed and his progeny ten times at dawn and repeats the following words
Subhan Allah ( 35 times)
La ilaha il Allah (35 times)
Alhamdu lillah (35 times)
|
And repeats the same at dusk, then he will be counted as those who are busy supplicating to Allah throughout the day. And one who says allaho Akbar a hundred times at dawn and at dusk, he will get Reward equal to releasing a hundred slaves.
It is narrated that the Prophet of Allah (a.s.) used to recite three hundred and sixty times every dawn and dusk the following Alhamdu lillahi rabbilaalimeen kateeran ala kulle haalin
He (a.s.) said that there are 360 veins in the human body. Of them 180 are mobile and the other 180 are static. If, even one mobile vein becomes static, or any of the static veins becomes mobile, then the person doesn’t get the sleep and remains restless the whole night. He should therefore regularly recite the invocation mentioned above.
Hazrat Ameer al Momineen has said that anyone who recited three times the following words every morning and evening, then Allah will certainly enter him into the Heaven:
Razaito billahi rabban wa bilislame deenan wa Muhammadin sal allaho alaihi wa aalehi nabian wa bil qurane balaghan wa be aliyin imaman wa bil ausiayo min wuldehe aayimatan
|
Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s.) has said that one who recites the following words 25 times every day, then Allah will write one virtue in the names of all the momins from Adam (a.s.) till the Day of Reckoning and to that individual he will Reward equal to that of all the momins:
Allahumma aghfiru lilmomineena wal mominaate wal muslimeena wal muslimaate

Oh Allah! Bless Muhammad and the progeny of Muhammad, and pardon me, and have mercy on me, for surely Thou art the Praised and the Glorious. Oh Allah! as Thy light has guided me, so all praise is due to Thee; and by the bounty of Thy clemency pardon me, so all praise is due to Thee Oh our Lord! Thou art the Most Generous of the generous and Thy Splendour is greater than all splendour, and Thy gift is greater in merit than all gifts. Thou thank those who obey thee and forgive when disobeyed, and grants the supplication of one in distress, and removes the harm, and rescues from affliction, and enriches the indigent, and cures the ailing, and nobody can recompense for any of Thy blessings. Oh Most Merciful of the Merciful!”.

Then recite:“O Allah! surely, I have no knowledge of the main source of my subsistence, and I seek it only through the passing thoughts that come to my heart, and I wander about in cities searching for it, and I am preplexed in regard to what I search for. I do not know whether it is in a valley or in the mountains, in the earth or in the heavens, in the continent or in the sea, and in whose hands it is, and from whom it is. And surely I know that Thou hast its Knowledge, and its sources are in Thy hand, and Thou alone distributes it by Thy kindness, and creates opportunities through Thy mercy. Oh Allah therefore bless Muhammad and his progeny; and Oh Lord! increase my sustenance, apportioned by Thee, and make easy to search and the source near; and do not make me strive in the search of what Thou hast not decreed from my sustenance. For, surely: Thou art indifferent to chastise me and I need Thy mercy. Bless Muhammad and his progeny and by Thy grace show generosity to Thy slave, surely Thou art the most generous”.
Then recite:“Oh Allah! Who transforms hearts and eyes, steadfast in Thy religion. And deviate not my heart after Thou hast guided me aright and bless me from Thy mercy. Surely Thou art the Most generous Giver, and by Thy mercy protect me from the fire. Oh Allah! extend the span of my life and increase my subsistence and spread Thy mercy on me; and, if in Thy Knowledge, there is anything unhappy for me in the guarded tablets change it into happiness, for surely Thou changeth what Thou pleaseth and inscribe what Thou pleaseth; and the guarded Tablet belongs Thee alone”.
Then recite:“Surely Allah and His angels bless Prophet; Oh you who believe call for (Divine) blessings on him and salute him with a (becoming salutation. Oh Allah bless Muhammad, Thy Prophet and his progeny and his household”.

Then recite the following:
“Oh Allah, this is the prayer that I have offered to thee. In offering it I have no need from Thee and no personal wish from Thee except to bow down (before Thy majesty) and to obey Thee and to comply with what Thou hast commanded me.

Surely straight is the path of my Lord”.

“Oh Allah! By the truth of Muhammad and the progeny of Muhammad, bless Muhammad and the progeny of Muhammad; and save me from Thy plan; and make us not forgetful of Thy remembrance; and do not disclose our defects which Thou has concealed; and do not deprive us of Thy grace; and do not bring down Thy wrath on us; and do not send us away from Thy vicinity and do not diminish Thy mercy on us; and do not deflect Thy blessing from us; and do not deprive us of Thy salvation and set aright what thou has given us; and increase Thy blessed, excellent and fine bounty on us; and do not alter thy blessings which we possess and do not remove us away from Thy abundance for undoubtedly thou art most generous; and do not let us go astray after thou hast guided us aright; and grant us from Thee mercy. Verily, Thou are Most generous. Oh Allah! make our hearts obedient to Thee and our souls good, and keep our wives chaste, and make our tongues truthful and our belief lasting and our certainty sincere and do not destroy our livelihood our Lord! Grant us good in the world and good in the hereafter, and save us from the chastisement of the fire”.
