1ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي نَجْرَانَ وَابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ كَانَ يَقُولُ عِنْدَ الْعِلَّةِ اللهمَّ إِنَّكَ عَيَّرْتَ أَقْوَاماً فَقُلْتَ قُلِ ادْعُوا الَّذِينَ زَعَمْتُمْ مِنْ دُونِهِ فَلا يَمْلِكُونَ كَشْفَ الضُّرِّ عَنْكُمْ وَلا تَحْوِيلاً فَيَا مَنْ لا يَمْلِكُ كَشْفَ ضُرِّي وَلا تَحْوِيلَهُ عَنِّي أَحَدٌ غَيْرُهُ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَاكْشِفْ ضُرِّي وَحَوِّلْهُ إِلَى مَنْ يَدْعُو مَعَكَ إِلَهاً آخَرَ لا إِلَهَ غَيْرُكَ.

1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn abu Najran and ibn Faddal from certain individuals of our people from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “For an ailment the Imam (a.s.) would say, ‘O Lord, You have criticized certain nations saying, “(Muhammad), tell them, ‘Seek help from those whom you consider equal to Allah. They are not able to remove or change your hardships’” (17:56) O the One besides whom no one is able to provide me relief or divert the hardships away from me, confer al-Salat (favors) upon Muhammad and his family, grant me relief and divert the suffering from me to those who worship things other than You.’” 

2ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ الْمُهْتَدِي عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ زُرْبِيٍّ قَالَ مَرِضْتُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ مَرَضاً شَدِيداً فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) فَكَتَبَ إِلَيَّ قَدْ بَلَغَنِي عِلَّتُكَ فَاشْتَرِ صَاعاً مِنْ بُرٍّ ثُمَّ اسْتَلْقِ عَلَى قَفَاكَ وَانْثُرْهُ عَلَى صَدْرِكَ كَيْفَمَا انْتَثَرَ وَقُلِ اللهمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِاسْمِكَ الَّذِي إِذَا سَأَلَكَ بِهِ الْمُضْطَرُّ كَشَفْتَ مَا بِهِ مِنْ ضُرٍّ وَمَكَّنْتَ لَهُ فِي الأرْضِ وَجَعَلْتَهُ خَلِيفَتَكَ عَلَى خَلْقِكَ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَأَنْ تُعَافِيَنِي مِنْ عِلَّتِي ثُمَّ اسْتَوِ جَالِساً وَاجْمَعِ الْبُرَّ مِنْ حَوْلِكَ وَقُلْ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَاقْسِمْهُ مُدّاً مُدّاً لِكُلِّ مِسْكِينٍ وَقُلْ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ قَالَ دَاوُدُ فَفَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَكَأَنَّمَا نُشِطْتُ مِنْ عِقَالٍ وَقَدْ فَعَلَهُ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ فَانْتَفَعَ بِهِ.

2. Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from ‘Abd al-‘Aziz ibn al-Muhtadi from Yunus ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman from Dawud ibn Razin who has said the following: “I fell severely ill in Madiana and Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) had found out about it. He wrote to me, ‘Your ailment has come to our notice and you should buy one Sa’a (about 3 kg) of wheat, lie down on your back, pour it on your chest, as is done and say, “O Lord, I plead before You through Your name with which when a helpless person pleads before You, You remove his hardship, establish him on earth, and appoint him as Your deputy among Your creatures, bestow al-Salat (favors) upon Muhammad and his family, grant me good health and recovery from my ailment.” Then sit straight, collect the wheat around you and say what you just said and distribute it among the destitute a handful for each one and say what you just said (above supplication).’ “Dawud has said, ‘I followed his instruction and it was like I was freed from a rope with which I was tied up. Many people tried it and benefited thereby.’” 

3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ اشْتَكَى بَعْضُ وُلْدِهِ فَقَالَ يَا بُنَيَّ قُلِ اللهمَّ اشْفِنِي بِشِفَائِكَ وَدَاوِنِي بِدَوَائِكَ وَعَافِنِي مِنْ بَلائِكَ فَإِنِّي عَبْدُكَ وَابْنُ عَبْدِكَ.

3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from al- Husayn ibn Nu’aym from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Once one of the sons of Imam (a.s.) complained from an ailment and he told him to say, ‘O Lord, cure me with Your treatment, provide me medication from Your medicine and relieve me from Your misfortune; I am Your servant, son of Your servant.’” 

4ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ هَذَا الَّذِي قَدْ ظَهَرَ بِوَجْهِي يَزْعُمُ النَّاسُ أَنَّ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَمْ يَبْتَلِ بِهِ عَبْداً لَهُ فِيهِ حَاجَةٌ فَقَالَ لِي لا لَقَدْ كَانَ مُؤْمِنُ آلِ فِرْعَوْنَ مُكَنَّعَ الأصَابِعِ فَكَانَ يَقُولُ هَكَذَا وَيَمُدُّ يَدَهُ وَيَقُولُ يا قَوْمِ اتَّبِعُوا الْمُرْسَلِينَ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِذَا كَانَ الثُّلُثُ الأخِيرُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فِي أَوَّلِهِ فَتَوَضَّأْ وَقُمْ إِلَى صَلاتِكَ الَّتِي تُصَلِّيهَا فَإِذَا كُنْتَ فِي السَّجْدَةِ الأخِيرَةِ مِنَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الأولَيَيْنِ فَقُلْ وَأَنْتَ سَاجِدٌ يَا عَلِيُّ يَا عَظِيمُ يَا رَحْمَانُ يَا رَحِيمُ يَا سَامِعَ الدَّعَوَاتِ وَيَا مُعْطِيَ الْخَيْرَاتِ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَأَعْطِنِي مِنْ خَيْرِ الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ مَا أَنْتَ أَهْلُهُ وَاصْرِفْ عَنِّي مِنْ شَرِّ الدُّنْيَا وَالآخِرَةِ مَا أَنْتَ أَهْلُهُ وَأَذْهِبْ عَنِّي هَذَا الْوَجَعَ وَسَمِّهِ فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ غَاظَنِي وَأَحْزَنَنِي وَأَلِحَّ فِي الدُّعَاءِ قَالَ فَمَا وَصَلْتُ إِلَى الْكُوفَةِ حَتَّى أَذْهَبَ الله بِهِ عَنِّي كُلَّهُ.

4. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Malik ibn ‘Atiyyah from Yunus ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Once I said to Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) may Allah keep my soul in service for your cause, about this thing that has appeared on my face, people say that Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, does not allow it to cause suffering to one about whom He cares.’ The Imam said, ‘No, that is not so. The fingers of the believing person among the people of Pharaoh were such that bones were visible and he would speak to people extending his hand forward: ‘O people, follow the messengers.’ (36:20) The Imam then said, ‘When it is the beginning of the last third of the night, make Wuzu and stand up for prayer that you (usually) perform. In the last Sajdah (prostration) of the first two Rak’at say, ‘O the Most High, O the Most Great, O the Beneficent, O the Merciful, O the Hearer of the pleas for help, O the Conferrer of the good, grant al-Salat (favors) upon Muhammad and his family, facilitate for me of the good of this and the next world that much which You would deem proper, divert away from me the evil of this and the next world that much that You deem proper and relieve me from this pain; - mention it by its name - it has caused me anguish and sadness,’ and be persistent in your pleading and prayer.’ “The narrator has said that before his reaching al-Kufa Allah had totally relieved him from that disease.’” (See also Hadith 30 Ch. 103) 

5ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَعِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ جَمِيعاً عَنْ حَنَانِ بْنِ سَدِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ إِذَا رَأَيْتَ الرَّجُلَ مَرَّ بِهِ الْبَلاءُ فَقُلِ الْحَمْدُ لله الَّذِي عَافَانِي مِمَّا ابْتَلاكَ بِهِ وَفَضَّلَنِي عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى كَثِيرٍ مِمَّنْ خَلَقَ وَلا تُسْمِعْهُ.

5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father and A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad Drust ibn abu Mansur Muhammad ibn Isma’Il all from Hanan ibn Sadir from his father from abu Ja’far (a.s.) who has said the following: “Whenever you see a man afflicted with a misfortune, say, ‘All praise belongs to Allah, Who has kept me safe from that with which you suffer, that He has given me preference over you and over many creatures,’ but be sure not to make him hear what you said.’” 

6ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ زُرْبِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ تَضَعُ يَدَكَ عَلَى الْمَوْضِعِ الَّذِي فِيهِ الْوَجَعُ وَتَقُولُ ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ الله الله رَبِّي حَقّاً لا أُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئاً اللهمَّ أَنْتَ لَهَا وَلِكُلِّ عَظِيمَةٍ فَفَرِّجْهَا عَنِّي.

6. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from certain individuals of his people from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Dawud ibn Razin from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Place your hand over the painful part and say three times: Allah, Allah, my Lord in all truth, I do not believe in anything as His partner, O Lord, You are (the help) for this and all the great troubles, provide me relief from this pain.’” 

7ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ دَاوُدَ عَنْ مُفَضَّلٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) لِلأوْجَاعِ تَقُولُ بِسْمِ الله وَبِالله كَمْ مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ لله فِي عِرْقٍ سَاكِنٍ وَغَيْرِ سَاكِنٍ عَلَى عَبْدٍ شَاكِرٍ وَغَيْرِ شَاكِرٍ وَتَأْخُذْ لِحْيَتَكَ بِيَدِكَ الْيُمْنَى بَعْدَ صَلاةٍ مَفْرُوضَةٍ وَتَقُولُ اللهمَّ فَرِّجْ عَنِّي كُرْبَتِي وَعَجِّلْ عَافِيَتِي وَاكْشِفْ ضُرِّي ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَاحْرِصْ أَنْ يَكُونَ ذَلِكَ مَعَ دُمُوعٍ وَبُكَاءٍ.

7. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Dawud from Mufaddal from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “For pains say, ‘In the name of Allah, and with (the help of) Allah, how much is of the bounties of Allah in a painful or painless vein of a thankful or unthankful servant (of Allah).’ After an obligatory prayer hold your beard in your hand and say, ‘O Lord, relieve me from my pain with an immediate good health and remove hardships from me, say it three times and try it to happen with tears coming from your eyes and a feeling of weeping.’” 

8ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ عَنْ رَجُلٍ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) فَشَكَوْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَجَعاً بِي فَقَالَ قُلْ بِسْمِ الله ثُمَّ امْسَحْ يَدَكَ عَلَيْهِ وَقُلْ أَعُوذُ بِعِزَّةِ الله وَأَعُوذُ بِقُدْرَةِ الله وَأَعُوذُ بِجَلالِ الله وَأَعُوذُ بِعَظَمَةِ الله وَأَعُوذُ بِجَمْعِ الله وَأَعُوذُ بِرَسُولِ الله وَأَعُوذُ بِأَسْمَاءِ الله مِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَحْذَرُ وَمِنْ شَرِّ مَا أَخَافُ عَلَى نَفْسِي تَقُولُهَا سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ فَفَعَلْتُ فَأَذْهَبَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِهَا الْوَجَعَ عَنِّي.

8. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Ibrahim ibn ‘Abd al-Hamid from a man who has said the following: “Once I went in the presence of Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) and complained to him from a pain that I suffered. The Imam instructed me to say, ‘In the name of Allah, wipe your hand on the painful area and say, “I seek protection through the power of Allah, I seek protection through the glory of Allah, I seek protection through the greatness of Allah, I seek protection through the community of Allah, I seek protection through the Messenger of Allah, I seek protection through the names of Allah, against the evil of that which I avoid and from the evil of that from which I fear for myself,”’ - seven times. I (the narrator) followed the instruction and Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, removed the pain from me.’”
