۞
Ali ibn Muhammad narrated from some of his companions, from Muhammad ibn Sinan, from Abu Sa'id al-Mukhari that Abu Hamza (al-Thumali) asked Abu Ja'far (al-Baqir) (as), "What is the meaning of His words: 'And Ibrahim who fulfilled [his duties].'" (53:37) He said, "
Eloquent words that he would say often." I asked, "What were they?". He said, "Whenever he would wake up in the morning, he would say three times: 'I have awakened, and by my Lord, all praise is due to Him, I do not associate anything with Allah, nor do I call upon any god besides Him, nor do I take anyone other than Him as a protector.' And when evening came, he would say it three times as well.' So Allah, the Almighty, revealed in His book this verse." I then asked, "Then what about His words regarding Nuh (as): 'Indeed, he was a grateful servant.' (17:3) He said, "Eloquent words that he would say often." I asked, "What are they?". He said, "Whenever he would wake up in the morning, he would say three times: 'I testify that there is no blessing or well-being that I wake up to, in religion or in the world, except from You alone, there is no partner for You, so to You is all praise for that and abundant thanks.' He used to say it three times in the morning and three times in the evening." I then asked, "What about His words regarding Yahya (as): '[We gave him] affection from us and purity, and he was God-fearing.'" (19:13) He said, "Allah showed compassion." I asked, "How much of Allah's compassion did he receive?". He said, "Whenever he called out 'Ya Rabb', Allah (swt) would respond with, 'Labayka Ya Yahya'.
38ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمُكَارِي عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
قُلْتُ لَهُ مَا عَنَى بِقَوْلِهِ وَإِبْراهِيمَ الَّذِي وَفَّى قَالَ كَلِمَاتٍ بَالَغَ فِيهِنَّ قُلْتُ وَمَا هُنَّ قَالَ كَانَ إِذَا أَصْبَحَ قَالَ أَصْبَحْتُ وَرَبِّي مَحْمُودٌ أَصْبَحْتُ لا أُشْرِكُ بِالله شَيْئاً وَلا أَدْعُو مَعَهُ إِلَهاً وَلا أَتَّخِذُ مِنْ دُونِهِ وَلِيّاً ثَلاثاً وَإِذَا أَمْسَى قَالَهَا ثَلاثاً قَالَ فَأَنْزَلَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فِي كِتَابِهِ وَإِبْراهِيمَ الَّذِي وَفَّى قُلْتُ فَمَا عَنَى بِقَوْلِهِ فِي نُوحٍ إِنَّهُ كانَ عَبْداً شَكُوراً قَالَ كَلِمَاتٍ بَالَغَ فِيهِنَّ قُلْتُ وَمَا هُنَّ قَالَ كَانَ إِذَا أَصْبَحَ قَالَ أَصْبَحْتُ أُشْهِدُكَ مَا أَصْبَحَتْ بِي مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ أَوْ عَافِيَةٍ فِي دِينٍ أَوْ دُنْيَا فَإِنَّهَا مِنْكَ وَحْدَكَ لا شَرِيكَ لَكَ فَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَلَكَ الشُّكْرُ كَثِيراً كَانَ يَقُولُهَا إِذَا أَصْبَحَ ثَلاثاً وَإِذَا أَمْسَى ثَلاثاً قُلْتُ فَمَا عَنَى بِقَوْلِهِ فِي يَحْيَى وَحَناناً مِنْ لَدُنَّا وَزَكاةً قَالَ تَحَنُّنَ الله قَالَ قُلْتُ فَمَا بَلَغَ مِنْ تَحَنُّنِ الله عَلَيْهِ قَالَ كَانَ إِذَا قَالَ يَا رَبِّ قَالَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَبَّيْكَ يَا يَحْيَى.
