جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي ذُو عِيَالٍ وَ عَلَيَّ دَيْنٌ وَ قَدِ اشْتَدَّتْ حَالِي فَعَلِّمْنِي دُعَاءً إِذَا دَعَوْتُ بِهِ رَزَقَنِيَ اللَّهُ مَا أَقْضِي بِهِ دَيْنِي وَ أَسْتَعِينُ بِهِ عَلَى عِيَالِي فَقَالَ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ تَوَضَّأْ وَ أَسْبِغْ وُضُوءَكَ ثُمَّ صَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ تُتِمُّ الرُّكُوعَ وَ السُّجُودَ فِيهِمَا ثُمَّ قُلْ يَا مَاجِدُ يَا وَاحِدُ يَا كَرِيمُ أَتَوَجَّهُ إِلَيْكَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ نَبِيِّكَ نَبِيِّ الرَّحْمَةِ يَا مُحَمَّدُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَتَوَجَّهُ بِكَ إِلَى اللَّهِ رَبِّكَ وَ رَبِّ كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَلَى أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ وَ أَسْأَلُكَ نَفْحَةً مِنْ نَفَحَاتِكَ وَ فَتْحاً يَسِيراً وَ رِزْقاً وَاسِعاً أَلُمُّ بِهِ شَعْثِي وَ أَقْضِي بِهِ دَيْنِي وَ أَسْتَعِينُ بِهِ عَلَى عِيَالِ.


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ahmad Bin Abu Dawood, from Abu Hamza, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘A man came over to the Prophet<sup>saww</sup> and he said, ‘O Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup>! I am with dependants, and upon me are debts, and my state has become difficult, so teach me a supplication when I supplicate with it, Allah<sup>azwj</sup> would Grace me what I can payback my debts with, and assist my dependants with it’. So he<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘O servant of Allah<sup>saww</sup>! Perform the <span class="iTxt">Wuzu</span> and the extensive <span class="iTxt">Wuzu</span>, then pray two Rak’at of <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>, completing the <span class="iTxt">Rukū</span> and the <span class="iTxt">Sajdah</span> in them, then say, ‘O Glorious! O One! O Benevolent! I diver to You<sup>azwj</sup> by Muhammad<sup>saww</sup> Your<sup>azwj</sup> Prophet<sup>saww</sup>, a Prophet<sup>saww</sup> of the Mercy! O Muhammad<sup>saww</sup>! O Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup>! I divert by you<sup>saww</sup> to Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, your<sup>saww</sup> Lord<sup>azwj</sup>, and the Lord<sup>azwj</sup> of everything, that You<sup>azwj</sup> should Send Blessings upon Muhammad<sup>saww</sup> and upon the People<sup>asws</sup> of his<sup>saww</sup> Household, and I ask You<sup>azwj</sup> for a gift from Your<sup>azwj</sup> gifts, and easy openings, and extensive livelihood I can gather my affairs with, and fulfil my debts with, and assist my dependants with’.
