Sa‘d ibn Abdullah from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn Hadid, and Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Najran, and al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from Hammad ibn Isa from Hariz ibn Abdillah from Zurarah: Abu Ja‘far عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: “It suffices you in prayer, in the words of directing yourself toward Allah سبحانه وتعالى (‘tawajjuh’), to say: ‘I turn my face toward the One عز وجل who created the heavens and the earth, upon the creed of Abraham, upright and submitting, and I am not among the polytheists. Indeed my prayer, my sacrifice, my life, and my death are for Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Lord عز وجل of the worlds. No partner has He عز وجل, and with this I have been commanded, and I am among the Muslims.’ And one ‘takbirah’ (saying of ‘Allahu Akbar’) is sufficient for you.”
