Assalamu Alalika Ya Aba Abdillah Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah e wabarakatoh Ziarat of Imam Husayn(as) : This Ziarat is for 1st Rajab, 15th Rajab and 15th Shaabaan. It is related from Imam Sadiq (a.s.) that one who performs the Ziarat of Imam Husain (a.s.) on 1st Rajab would be forgiven by Allah. It is narrated from Ibne Abi Nasr that he asked Imam Reza (a.s.) what was the best time for the Ziarat of Imam Husain (a.s.). He (a.s.) replied: 15th Rajab and 15th Shaabaan. Shaykh Mufeed (a.r.) and Sayyid Ibne Taaoos (r.a.) have mentioned that this Ziarat is for 1st Rajab and 15th Shaabaan, but Shaheed (r.a.) has prescribed it for 1st eve of Rajab, eve and day of 15th Rajab and 15th Shaabaan. Thus according to him this Ziarat is for six occasions. The method of this Ziarat is like this: When you want to perform the Ziarat of Imam Husain (a.s.) on these occasions, perform ghusl, wear ritually pure clothes and stand at the door of the Shrine facing the qibla and salute the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.), Ali (a.s.), Hazrat Fatemah (a.s.), Imam Hasan (a.s.) and Imam Husain (a.s.) and other Imams (a.s.). After this recite the dua for permission to enter and then enter. allhu akbaru allhu akbaru kabran walamdu lillhi kathran wa subna allhi bukratan wa alan walamdu lillhi alladhy hadn lihdh wa m kunn linahtadiya lawl an hadn allhu laqad jat rusulu rabbn bilaqqi alssalmu `al rasli allhi all allhu `alayhi wa lihi alssalmu `al amri almuminna alssalmu `al fimata alzri sayyidati nisi al`lamna

Special Ziarat of Imam Husayn(as) for 15 Shaban Ziyarah of Imam al-Husayn on the Fifteenth of Sha`ban MP3

There are two forms of Ziarat for the fifteenth of Sha`ban. The first form is the same as Ziyarah on the first of Rajab, and the second as in the book of al-Balad al-Amin, Shaykh al-Kaf`amiy has reported Imam al-Sadiq (a.s) as saying that one may stop at the holy tomb of Imam al-Husayn (a.s) and say the following: alhamdu lillahi al`aliyy al`azimi wa alssalamu `alayka ayyuha al`abdu alSSalihu alzzakiyy udi`uka shahadatan minny laka tuqarribuny ilayka fi yawmi shafa`atika ash-hadu annaka qutilta wa lam tamut bal birajai hayatika hayiyat qulubu shi`atika wa biziyai nurika ahtada alttalibuna ilayka wa ash-hadu annaka nuru allahi alladhy lam yutfa wa la yutfau abadan wa annaka wajhu allahi alladhy lam yahlik wa la yuhlaku abadan wa ash-hadu ann hadhihi alttrbata turbatuka wa hadha alharama haramuka wa hadha almaSra`a maSra`u badanika la dhalila wallahu mu`izzuka wa la maghluba wallahu naSiruka hadhihi shahadatun li `indaka ila yawmi qabzi ruhy bihazratika wa alssalamu `alayka wa rahmatu allahi wa barakatuhu 5) Recite Namaz /Salaat of Jafar-e-Tayyar Salat of Jafar e Tayyar (as) Salaat of -Jafar-e-Tayyar (brother of Imam Ali (as) is among the prayers that are greatly emphasized and it is famous among all sects. It was a gift of love bestowed by the Holy Prophet ( s.a.w.s.) to his cousin upon his return from the journey. Imam Sadiq ( a.s.) has said: On the day of the conquest of Khyber when Jafar returned from Abyssinia the Holy Prophet ( s.a.w.s.) asked: Dont you want a reward? Dont you want a gift? Hazrat Jafar replied: Why not, O Messenger of Allah? The Messenger of Allah ( s.a.w.s.) said: I am giving you something that if you perform it everyday it would better than all those things that are present in the world. And if you perform it once in two days the Almighty will forgive the sins of both these days and if you perform it every Friday or every month or every year the Almighty will forgive all the sins committed in between. The best time to perform it is on Friday before noon. This prayer can be counted as the Nafila of the night or the Nafila of the day. It is a four rakat Namaz, divided into two parts 2 x 2 rakat. Pray each part exactly like the Fajr Namaz, with the following adjustments: (i) First rakat After recitation of Sura Faatihah, recite Sura 99 Zilzaal (ii) Second rakat After recitation of Sura Faatihah, recite Sura 100 Aadiyaat (iii) Third Rakat After recitation of Sura Faatihah, recite Sura 109 Nasr (iv) Fourth Rakat after recitation of Sura Faatihah, recite Sura Ikhlaas. (Use www.tanzil.net to recite ,if you do not remember these surahs of each rakat, then recite sura Ikhlaas in all 4 rakats).

In each rakat recite Tasbeehaatul Arbaa 75 times ie cumulative 300 times in four rakats. :(i) After reciation of Surahs 15 times (ii) In Rukoo 10 times (iii) In Qiyyaam after Rukoo 10 times (iv) In the First Sajdah 10 times (v) While sitting after First Sajdah 10 times (vi) In the second Sajdah 10 times (vii) While sitting after second Sajdah 10 times. ( inc in second rakat 'before' reciting salam) One has to make an effort to remember to recite this at each movement since the automatic action is to go to next action in normal salaat.In case the recitation is mised in any position , those tasbihaat may be recited at the end upon completion Tasbeehatul Arbaa is recited as under :SUBHAANALLAAHI WAL HAMDU LILLAAHI WA LAA ILAAHA ILLALLAAHU WALLAAHU AKBAR Glory be to Allah, Praise be to Allah, there is no god but Allah, and Allah is Great. In case of old age/weakness ,one can recite Tasbeehaatul arbaa 300 times at the end of Namaz, according to your convenience, while sitting, lying or standing. More rules According to Imam Jafar Sadiq ( a.s.), the following Dua is to be recited, in the last Sajdah of the fourth Rakat ALLAHUMMA SALLI ALAA MUHAMMADINW WA AALLI MUHAMMAD BISMILLAHIR RAHMAANIR RAHEEM SUBHAANA MAN LABISAL IZZA WAL WAQAAR, SUBHAANA MAN TA ATTAFA BIL MAJDI WA TAKARRAMA BIHEE SUBHAANA MAL LAA YANBAGHIT TASBEEHU ILLAA LAHOO.

6) Recite Dua Kumayl for Seeking forgiveness. In Hadith, it is mentioned that Kumayl ibn Ziyad said, "I was sitting with my master Amir al-Mominin Ali ibn Abu Talib (peace be upon him) in Masjid Kufa and a group of companions were also sitting with him. One of them asked him what the meaning of the verse 'Whereupon every wise command is made clear.' (Surah ad-Dukhan, Verse 4) The Imam (peace be upon him) replied, The meaning of this is the night of the 15th of Shaban. I swear by the One who holds the life of Ali in His hands there is not a single servant of Allah except that all the good and bad that will reach him in this year is divided up and handed out on the 15th of Shaban and this good and bad will continue from the 15th of Shaban until the next year on the same night. The servant who stays up this night and recites the Dua of Khidr will have his supplications answered." This dua taught to Kumayl ibn Ziad is now known popularly as Dua e Kumayl. Dua'a E Kumayl -Taught by Imam Ali(as) ORIGIN OF THE DU'A Kumayl Ibn Ziyad Nakha'i was a confidant amongst the companions of Imam Ali Ibn Abi Talib(as.) and this sublime Du'a was first heard from the beautiful, though anguished, voice of Imam Ali. According to Allama Majlisi (on whom be Allah's Mercy) Kumayl had attended an assembly in the Mosque at Basra which was addressed by Imam Ali in the course of which the night of the 15th of Shaban was mentioned. Imam Ali said-"Whosoever keeps awake in devoutness on this night and recites the Du'a of Prophet Khizr, undoubtedly that person's supplication will be responded to and granted. When the assembly at the Mosque had dispersed, Kumayl called at the house where Imam Ali was staying, and requested him to acquaint him with Prophet Khizr's "Du'a". Imam Ali asked Kumayl to sit down, record and memorise the "Du'a" which Imam Ali dictated to Kumayl. Imam Ali then advised Kumayl to recite this "Du'a" on the eve of (i.e. evening preceding) every Friday, or once a month or at least once in every year so that, added Imam Ali, "Allah may protect thee from the evils of the enemies and the plots contrived by impostors. O' Kumayl! in consideration of thy companionship and understanding, I grant thee this honour of entrusting this "Du'a" to thee."

One may write an Ariza(Letter)to Imam as well .Our supplications and Salat should always be performed with the thought in the back of our minds of the distance from our leader however we should also keep in mind and be thankful to Allah swt that we are blessed with such a guide. Recite the duas relating to the Imam (atfs) Dua Nudba , Ziarat e Imam-Isteghasa & Ziarat Aale Yasin of the Ahlulbayt(as).

Ziarat Aale -Yasin Ziarat Aal-e-Yaseen is another important Ziarat of Imam-e-Zaman(a.s.). It is actually a Hadith Qudsi (direct saying of Allah(swt)) as reported in Mafatih-al-Jinnan. According to the traditions, "Aal-e-Yaseen" is equivalent to "Aal-e-Muhammad(pbuh&hf)" and is the correct pronunciation (Qira'at) of verse 37:130 of the Holy Quran. Beside its superb beauty, one of the interesting points about this Duaa is that, in it, we confess all the central beliefs one by one.
