Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful.
Ya Ali Madad! This post has three parts:
1. Knowledge Section;
2. The Ismaili Shahada; and
3. Angelic Salwat Dhikr.
Part 1: Knowledge Section
The following is a prayer for contentment as taught by NOOR Mowlana Murtaza Ali (a.s.) (Source: Nahjul Balagha: Sermons, letters and saying of Hazrat Ali, Khutba 229, page 197.)
| "O Lord! Protect my prestige and dignity by making me free from wants, by teaching me contentment and satisfaction with what You have granted me. And please God do not let abject proverty and destitution lower my status and position in the eyes of society and force me to go begging from those who are wicked and vicious. Lest I may lose nobility of my character and start praising those who give me anything, and slandering and back-biting those who refuse to come to my help and lest I forget You altogether and overlook the fact that You and You alone can bestow anything and everything if You like, and prevent everything from reaching anybody if You so desire. Verily You have Power and Might to do as You desire." (Ameen) |
Let us offer Shukran Lillāh Wal Hamdu Lillāh tasbi:
Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Shukhran Lillāh Wal Hamdu Lillāh:
All thanks are due to Allāh, and all praises are due to Allāh
Al-hamdu lillahi rabbil 'alamin.
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds!
May NOOR Mowlana Hazar Imam inspire us to follow the Right Path and be blessed with many Batini Noorani (spiritual and luminous) Didars in this life time. Ameen.
Part 2: The Ismaili Shahada
In the second part of our Holy Dua, we recite the Ismaili Shahada as follows:|
"La ilaha illallah, Muhammadur-Rasoolullah, 'Aliyyun Amirul-Mu'mineen 'Aliyullah Mawlana Shah Rahim ul Hussaini, Al-Imamul Hazarul Maujood."
"There is no deity except Allah, Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, 'Ali - the master of believers - is from Allah. Our Lord Shah Rahim Al-Hussaini is our present and living Imam"
|
Part 3. Angelic Salwat
Let us recite angelic salwats to invoke Divine grace and mercy.
Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim
In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
Allâhumâ salli alâ Muhammadin wa âle Muhammad:
O Allah! Bestow Peace on and through Muhammad and his Descendants
or
Al-hamdu lillahi rabbil 'alamin.
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the worlds!
