Hadith 967
۞
Hadith.969 - In a narration from Ibrahim ibn Abd al-Hamid, it is mentioned that Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) advised a man:
“When you are afflicted by distress, place your hand on the spot of your prostration, then wipe your hand over your face starting from the left cheek, then over your forehead, ending at the right cheek.”
Ibn Abi Umayr stated that Ibrahim ibn Abd al-Hamid described it to us in the same manner. The Imam continued, “Then say
‘In the name of Allah (swt), the One besides whom there is no deity, the Knower of the unseen and the seen.. the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful. O’ Allah (swt), remove from me distress and grief.’”
Recite this three times.
