دَعْوَةُ الْعَبْدِ سِرّاً دَعْوَةً وَاحِدَةً تَعْدِلُ سَبْعِينَ دَعْوَةً عَلَانِيَةً . وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى دَعْوَةٌ تُخْفِيهَا أَفْضَلُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مِنْ سَبْعِينَ دَعْوَةً تُظْهِرُهَا .


Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Abu Hammam Ismail Bin Hammam, (It has been narrated) from Abu Al-Hassan Al-Reza<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘One secretive supplication of the servant equates to seventy supplications publicly’. And in another report, (He<sup>asws</sup> said): ‘A concealed supplication is more superior in the Presence of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> than seventy apparent supplications’.
