ركعتان كُلّ ركعة

مَرَّة و

سبعين مَرَّة.

دُعاؤُه (عليه السلام) :

1

اَللَّهُمَّ رَبَّ ٱلأَرْوَاحِ ٱلْفَانِيَةِ

O Allah, Lord of the souls passing away

2

وَٱلأَجْسَادِ ٱلْبَالِيَةِ

and the rotten corpses!

3

أَسْأَلُكَ بِطَاعَةِ ٱلأَرْوَاحِ ٱلرَّاجِعَةِ إِلَىٰ أَجْسَادِهَا

I beseech You in the name of the obedience of the souls that are restored to their bodies

4

وَبِطَاعَةِ ٱلأَجْسَادِ ٱلْمُلْتَئِمَةِ بِعُرُوقِهَا

and the obedience of the corpses that join their veins

5

وَبِكَلِمَتِكَ ٱلنَّافِذَةِ بَيْنَهُمْ

and in the name of Your Word that is effective on them

6

وَأَخْذِكَ ٱلْحَقَّ مِنْهُمْ

and in the name of Your judging justly among them;

7

وَٱلْخَلاَئِقُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ

while the [other] creatures are standing before You

8

يَنْتَظِرُونَ فَصْلَ قَضَائِكَ

awaiting the decisions of Your judgment,

9

وَيَرْجُونَ رَحْمَتَكَ وَيَخَافُونَ عِقَابِكَ

hoping for Your mercy, and fearing Your punishment;

10

صَلِّ عَلَىٰ مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ

(please do) send blessings to Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad,

11

وَٱجْعَلِ ٱلنُّورَ فِي بَصَرِي

place light in my sight,

12

وَٱلْيَقِينَ فِي قَلْبِي

strong belief in my heart,

13

وَذِكْرَكَ بِٱللَّيْلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِ عَلَىٰ لِسَانِي

and reference to You night and day on my tongue,

14

وَعَملاً صَالِحاً فَٱرْزُقْنِي

and provide me with a righteous deed.
