Hadith.948 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "The minimum supplication that suffices you after the obligatory (prayers) is to say: 'O’ Allah (swt), bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad. O’ Allah (swt), we ask You for every good that Your knowledge encompasses, and we seek refuge in You from every evil that Your knowledge encompasses. O’ Allah (swt), we ask You for Your protection in all of our matters, and we seek refuge in You from the disgrace of this world and the punishment of the Hereafter.'"

Hadith.949 - The Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) said: "Whoever wishes to leave this world with their sins purified, like gold that is free of impurities, and without anyone having a claim against them, let them say at the end of the five daily prayers the praise of the Lord (azj) (Surah Ikhlas) twelve times, then raise their hands and say: 'O’ Allah (swt), I ask You by Your hidden, stored, pure, blessed, and great name, and by Your ancient sovereignty, to send blessings upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad. O’ Giver of gifts, O’ Reliever of captives, O’ Liberator of necks from the fire, I ask You to send blessings upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, and to free my neck from the fire, to take me out of this world safely, to admit me into Paradise peacefully, and to make my supplication the beginning of success, its middle fruitful, and its end righteous, for You are the Knower of the unseen.'" Then Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) said: "This is from the hidden teachings that the Messenger of Allah (sw) taught me and instructed me to teach to Imam Hasan (as) and Imam Hussain (as)."

Hadith.953 - Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) said: "Whenever a servant extends their hands to Allah (swt), Allah (swt) feels shy to return them empty without placing in them something of His grace and mercy, as He wills.

Indeed, for every Muslim, this brings about a good deed”.

955 - وَقَالَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «إِذَا فَرَغَ أَحَدُكُمْ مِنَ اَلصَّلاَةِ فَلْيَرْفَعْ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى اَلسَّمَاءِ وَ لْيَنْصَبْ فِي اَلدُّعَاءِ» فَقَالَ اِبْنُ سَبَإٍ يَا أَمِيرَ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَ لَيْسَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِكُلِّ مَكَانٍ قَالَ «بَلَى» قَالَ فَلِمَ يَرْفَعُ يَدَيْهِ إِلَى اَلسَّمَاءِ فَقَالَ «أَ وَ مَا تَقْرَأُ: «وَ فِي اَلسَّمٰاءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَ مٰا تُوعَدُونَ» فَمِنْ أَيْنَ يُطْلَبُ اَلرِّزْقُ إِلاَّ مِنْ مَوْضِعِهِ وَ مَوْضِعُ اَلرِّزْقِ وَ مَا وَعَدَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ اَلسَّمَاءُ.

Hadith.955 - The Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) said: "When one of you finishes the prayer, let him raise his hands to the sky and be earnest in supplication." Ibn Saba asked: "O’ Commander of the Faithful, is not Allah (swt) present everywhere?" He (Imam Ali) replied: "Indeed, He is." Ibn Saba then asked: "So why do we raise our hands towards the sky?" Imam Ali answered, "Do you not recite: ' And in the heaven is your sustenance and what you are promised' (Surah Adh-Dhariyat 51:22)? From where else should sustenance be sought except from its place, and the place of sustenance and Allah’s (swt) promise is in the sky."

I seek to draw close to You through Muhammad, Your servant and messenger, and through Your closest angels and Your sent prophets. And by You, O’ Allah (swt)—You have no need of me, yet I am in dire need of You; You are the Rich, and I am the poor in need of You. Forgive my missteps, cover my sins, fulfil my needs today, and do not punish me for the evils You know of me, but let Your forgiveness encompass me and Your generosity extend over me." Then he would prostrate and say: Ya Ahl at-Taqwa wa Ya Ahl al-Maghfirah, Ya Barru Ya Raheem, Anta abarru bi min abi wa ummi wa min jamee‘ al-khala’iq. Iqlibni bi-qada’i hajati mujabaan du‘a’i marhooman sawti, qad kashafta anwa‘ al-bala’i ‘anni "O’ People of piety and forgiveness, O’ Benevolent, O’ Merciful—You are more benevolent to me than my father, my mother, and all of creation. Fulfil my need with answered supplications and a voice received with mercy; remove all types of afflictions from me."

O’ Allah (swt), keep away from me the evil of the disobedient among jinn and humans, and make my eventual return one of perpetual goodness and everlasting bliss."

Hadith.959 - It was narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Faraj that He said: “Abu Ja'far Muhammad ibn 'Ali al-Ridha (as) wrote to me and taught me this supplication, saying: "Whoever recites it after the Fajr prayer, their needs will be made easy, and Allah (swt) will suffice them from that which concerns them: In the name of Allah (swt), and with Allah (swt), and blessings upon Muhammad and his family. 'And I entrust my affair to Allah (swt); indeed, Allah (swt) is Seeing of [His] servants. 'So Allah (swt) protected him from the evils of their plotting. 'There is no deity except You; glory be to You! Indeed, I have been among the wrongdoers.' So We responded to him and delivered him from distress; and thus We deliver the believers. 'Sufficient for us is Allah (swt), and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs.' So they returned with favour from Allah (swt) and bounty, no harm having touched them. Whatever Allah (swt) wills—there is no might nor power except with Allah (swt). Whatever Allah (swt) wills shall be, even if people dislike it. Sufficient is my Lord (azj) from among the created ones; sufficient is the Creator from among the creation; sufficient is the Provider from among the provided; sufficient is He who has always been sufficient for me, and He who remains sufficient.

Hadith.960 - Imam (as) said: "When you finish the obligatory prayer, say: 'I am content with Allah (swt) as my Lord (azj), with Islam as my religion, with the Qur'an as my book, with Muhammad as my Prophet, with Ali as my guardian, and with Hasan, Hussain, Ali ibn al-Hussain, Muhammad ibn Ali, Ja'far ibn Muhammad, Musa ibn Ja'far, Ali ibn Musa, Muhammad ibn Ali, Ali ibn Muhammad, Hasan ibn Ali, and the Hujjah ibn al-Hasan (peace be upon them all) as Imams. O’ Allah (swt), protect Your guardian, the Hujjah, from all sides—from in front of him, behind him, on his right, on his left, above him, and below him. Extend his lifespan, make him the one to establish Your command, grant him victory for Your religion, and show him what pleases him and brings him joy in himself, his family, his progeny, his wealth, and his followers. Show him what frightens his enemies and demonstrate to his enemies what they fear. Heal the hearts of believers through him.'" The Prophet (sw) would say upon finishing his prayer: Allahumma ighfir li ma qaddamtu wa ma akhkhartu wa ma Asrartu wa ma a‘lantu wa israfi ‘ala nafsi wa ma anta a‘lamu bihi minni. Allahumma anta al-Muqaddimu wa anta al-Mu’akhkhiru, la ilaha illa anta.

"O’ Allah (swt), forgive me for what I have sent ahead and what I have delayed, for what I have concealed and what I have revealed, and for my excesses against myself, and for what You know better than I. O’ Allah (swt), You are the First and the Last. There is no god but You. By Your knowledge of the unseen and Your power over creation, if You know that life is better for me, then grant me life, and if You know that death is better for me, then take me unto You. O’ Allah (swt), I ask You for fear of You in secret and in public, for the word of truth in contentment and anger, and for moderation in wealth and poverty. I ask You for unending bliss, for joy that does not cease, and for contentment with what You have decreed and a comfortable life after death. I ask for the sweetness of looking upon Your face and a longing to meet You without a harmful calamity or a dark fitnah. O’ Allah (swt), adorn us with the adornment of faith and make us guides and guided ones. O’ Allah (swt), guide us among those You have guided. I ask You for determination upon the right path, stability in the affair, gratitude for Your blessings, good health, and the ability to fulfil Your rights. O’ Lord (azj), I ask You for a sound heart, a truthful tongue, forgiveness for what You know, the best of what You know, and protection from the evil of what You know and what we do not. Truly, You know and we do not, and You are the Knower of all that is hidden.'"

I seek refuge for myself, my wealth, my children, my family, my house, and everything that pertains to me with the Surah Al-Falaq, 'from the evil of what He has created' (to the end of the surah) and with the Surah Al-Nas (to the end of the surah), and with Ayat al-Kursi (to the end of the verse).'".

Hadith.962 - Hilqam ibn Abi Hilqam narrated that He said: "I came to Abu Ibrahim (Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim (as)) and said: 'May I be your sacrifice, teach me a supplication that encompasses both worldly and otherworldly affairs and make it concise.' Imam (as) said: 'Recite after the Fajr prayer until the sun rises: "Subhan Allah (swt) al-Azim wa bihamdihi (Glory be to Allah (swt), the Great, and praise be to Him). I seek forgiveness from Allah (swt) and ask Him for His bounty."' Hilqam then said: 'I was the worst off among my household, but I did not know what had happened until an inheritance came to me from a man whom I did not know to have any kinship with me. And today, I am the wealthiest among my household, and this is solely due to what my master, the righteous servant, taught me (as).'"

Hadith.964 - Hisham ibn Salim said to Abu Abdullah (as): "I go out and I love to be in a state of spiritual continuation (mu'aqqib)." Imam (as) replied: "If you are in a state of ablution (wudhu), then you are considered to be in a state of spiritual continuation (mu'aqqib)."
