1ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا صَبَّاحٌ الْحَذَّاءُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُوسَى بْنَ جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) يَقُولُ
لَوْ كَانَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْكُمْ إِذَا أَرَادَ السَّفَرَ قَامَ عَلَى بَابِ دَارِهِ تِلْقَاءَ وَجْهِهِ الَّذِي يَتَوَجَّهُ لَهُ فَقَرَأَ فَاتِحَةَ الْكِتَابِ أَمَامَهُ وَعَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ شِمَالِهِ وَآيَةَ الْكُرْسِيِّ أَمَامَهُ وَعَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ شِمَالِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ اللهمَّ احْفَظْنِي وَاحْفَظْ مَا مَعِي وَسَلِّمْنِي وَسَلِّمْ مَا مَعِي وَبَلِّغْنِي وَبَلِّغْ مَا مَعِي بِبَلاغِكَ الْحَسَنِ لَحَفِظَهُ الله وَحَفِظَ مَا مَعَهُ وَسَلَّمَهُ وَسَلَّمَ مَا مَعَهُ وَبَلَّغَهُ وَبَلَّغَ مَا مَعَهُ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا صَبَّاحُ أَ مَا رَأَيْتَ الرَّجُلَ يُحْفَظُ وَلا يُحْفَظُ مَا مَعَهُ وَيَسْلَمُ وَلا يَسْلَمُ مَا مَعَهُ وَيَبْلُغُ وَلا يَبْلُغُ مَا مَعَهُ قُلْتُ بَلَى جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ.
1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Musa ibn al-Qasim from Sabah al-Hadhdha’ who has said the following:
“I once heard Musa ibn Ja‘far , say, ‘When one of your people decides to leave for a journey, he should stand at the door of his house. He should face the direction of his journey, read Chapter one of the Holy Quran to his front, right and left side. He then should read Ayatu al-Kursiy (verse 255 of Chapter two) to his front, right and left side, then say, “O Allah, protect me and whatever is with me, keep me and whatever is with me safe, move me and whatever is with me with Your best moving means to our destination.” Allah protects him and whatever is with him, keeps him and whatever is with him safe, and moves him and whatever is with him to his destination.’” “He (the Imam) then said, ‘O Sabbah, ‘Have you seen a person is protected but not what is with him, kept safe but not what is with him and helped to reach his destination but not what is with him?’ I replied, ‘Yes, I have seen. I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause.’”
