Al-Kafi 3477

Translation

From him, from Muhammad Bin Sinan, from Yaoub Bin Shuayb, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah^asws having said: ‘O my^asws Aider during my^asws complains, and my^asws Companions during my^asws difficulties, and O my^asws Guardian in my^asws Bounties, and O my^asws Helper during my^asws wishes!’. He^asws said: ‘And it was from the supplications of Amir Al-Momineen^asws: ‘(Say), ‘O Allah^azwj! You^azwj Write down the impacts, and Know the information, and are Notified upon the secrets. You^azwj are Situated between us and the hearts, therefore the secret with You^azwj is open, and the hearts are broken up to You^azwj, and rather Your^azwj Command for something when You^azwj Intend it is that You^azwj are Saying to it: “Be”, so it comes into being. So, Say with Your^azwj Mercy to Your^azwj obedience to enter into every part of my body parts, and not to separate from me until I meet You^azwj. And Say with Your^azwj Mercy to Your^azwj disobedience that it should exit from every part of my body parts, so it would not come near me until I meet You^azwj; and Grace me from the world, and Cause me to be ascetic therein, and not to impede me and my wishes therein, O Beneficent!’’.
