2. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from al-Husayn ibn Ali al-Kufiy from Ali ibn Mahziyar from al-Hassan ibn Ali ibn ‘Uthman from Ali ibn al-Husayn ibn abu Talib from Ali ibn Ja’far who has said the following: “Abu al-Hassan Musa (a.s.), has narrated from his father from his grandfather (a.s.), this Hadith. ‘My father, Ali ibn al-Husayn (a.s.), would stand near the grave of the Holy Prophet and offer his Salam, testify to his preaching the messages of Allah and ask Allah for his wishes, as he wanted. He then liked to keep his back against the brightly green stone, which is next to the grave, stay attached to the grave with his back toward it, facing the direction of Ka’bah, and say, “
O Allah, I have sought backing and support from You. I have turned my back for support toward the grave of Muhammad, Your servant and Your messenger, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause. I have set my back for support and faced the direction, which You chose for Muhammad (SAW). O Allah, I do not possess anything good for myself that I can hope for. I am not able to keep away from my soul any evil and wickedness of which I am afraid. All matters are in Your hands. There is no one poorer than I am. I am in dire need of goodness because of what has come upon me. O Allah, return me back with goodness; no one is able to keep away Your favors. O Allah, I seek protection with You against Your changing my name, my body and removal of Your bounties from me. O Allah, honor me with piety, beautify me with bounties, cover me with good health and grant me the opportunity to thank you for good health.’””
2ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْكُوفِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَخِيهِ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ (عَلَيْهِم السَّلاَم) قَالَ
كَانَ أَبِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ (عَلَيْهِما السَّلاَم) يَقِفُ عَلَى قَبْرِ النَّبِيِّ (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) فَيُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِ وَيَشْهَدُ لَهُ بِالْبَلاغِ وَيَدْعُو بِمَا حَضَرَهُ ثُمَّ يُسْنِدُ ظَهْرَهُ إِلَى الْمَرْوَةِ الْخَضْرَاءِ الدَّقِيقَةِ الْعَرْضِ مِمَّا يَلِي الْقَبْرَ وَيَلْتَزِقُ بِالْقَبْرِ وَيُسْنِدُ ظَهْرَهُ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ وَيَسْتَقْبِلُ الْقِبْلَةَ فَيَقُولُ اللهمَّ إِلَيْكَ أَلْجَأْتُ ظَهْرِي وَإِلَى قَبْرِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدِكَ وَرَسُولِكَ أَسْنَدْتُ ظَهْرِي وَالْقِبْلَةَ الَّتِي رَضِيتَ لِمُحَمَّدٍ (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) اسْتَقْبَلْتُ اللهمَّ إِنِّي أَصْبَحْتُ لا أَمْلِكُ لِنَفْسِي خَيْرَ مَا أَرْجُو وَلا أَدْفَعُ عَنْهَا شَرَّ مَا أَحْذَرُ عَلَيْهَا وَأَصْبَحَتِ الأُمُورُ بِيَدِكَ فَلا فَقِيرَ أَفْقَرُ مِنِّي إِنِّي لِمَا أَنْزَلْتَ إِلَيَّ مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَقِيرٌ اللهمَّ ارْدُدْنِي مِنْكَ بِخَيْرٍ فَإِنَّهُ لا رَادَّ لِفَضْلِكَ اللهمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ أَنْ تُبَدِّلَ اسْمِي أَوْ تُغَيِّرَ جِسْمِي أَوْ تُزِيلَ نِعْمَتَكَ عَنِّي اللهمَّ كَرِّمْنِي بِالتَّقْوَى وَجَمِّلْنِي بِالنِّعَمِ وَاغْمُرْنِي بِالْعَافِيَةِ وَارْزُقْنِي شُكْرَ الْعَافِيَةِ.
