1. Muhammad ibn ’Isma‘il has narrated from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from Safwan ibn Yahya from ibn Muskan from Muhammad ibn Ali al-Halabiy who has said the following
“A man complained before abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), against his poverty and deprivation in business after being affluent and that in whatever way he moves to make a living, he faces difficulties. Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), commanded him to go to the special place of the Messenger of Allah which is between his grave and pulpit. ‘Perform two Rak‘at Salah (prayer) there and say, one hundred times, ‘O Lord, I appeal to You through Your power, Your determination, Your majesty and through whatever Your knowledge has encompassed, please facilitate my business and increase it for my sustenance in a way that is better and of good consequences.’ The man has said that thereafter in whichever way I moved for business Allah granted me benefits.”
1ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنِ ابْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْحَلَبِيِّ قَالَ
شَكَا رَجُلٌ إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) الْفَاقَةَ وَالْحُرْفَةَ فِي التِّجَارَةِ بَعْدَ يَسَارٍ قَدْ كَانَ فِيهِ مَا يَتَوَجَّهُ فِي حَاجَةٍ إِلاَّ ضَاقَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْمَعِيشَةُ فَأَمَرَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) أَنْ يَأْتِيَ مَقَامَ رَسُولِ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) بَيْنَ الْقَبْرِ وَالْمِنْبَرِ فَيُصَلِّيَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَيَقُولَ مِائَةَ مَرَّةٍ اللهمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِقُوَّتِكَ وَقُدْرَتِكَ وَبِعِزَّتِكَ وَمَا أَحَاطَ بِهِ عِلْمُكَ أَنْ تُيَسِّرَ لِي مِنَ التِّجَارَةِ أَوْسَعَهَا رِزْقاً وَأَعَمَّهَا فَضْلاً وَخَيْرَهَا عَاقِبَةً قَالَ الرَّجُلُ فَفَعَلْتُ مَا أَمَرَنِي بِهِ فَمَا تَوَجَّهْتُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهٍ إِلاَّ رَزَقَنِيَ الله.
