traduza o texto completamente e perfeitamente para o português The Prophet of Allah (a.s) has said that the best time for supplication is
near dawn (Sahr).
Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) has said “Do your supplication before sunrise. This is the time when the rivers of the Firmament are opened,
sustenance is distributed and prayers are answered.”
Hazrat Ali (a.s) has said, “If one wants to supplicate to Allah, three
timings are the most suitable: 1.On Fridays before the congregational sermon is delivered. 2. At the time of sunset. 3. Before sunrise (every day).”
Imam Zain al Abedeen (a.s) narrates that Hazrat Fatima Zehra (a.s)
heard the Prophet of Allah (a.s) say that there is a particular time on Fridays when prayers are generally answered. When asked, what is that
timing, the Prophet (a.s) said that it is the time when the sun is half way
to set.
Hazrat Ali (a.s) said on Friday there will be a wind of Allah’s Blessing
around sunset. The doors of the Heaven are open at that time. This is the
best time for supplicating to Allah.
EIGHTH CONDITION: Crying and beseeching makes the supplication effective. If tears flow from the supplicant’s eye while he prays, or
even one drop of tear comes out of the eye, the prayer will definitely be
answered.
Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) has said the creature nearest to Allah is one
who, while prostrating in prayer, cries and if he has lost hope of his
prayer getting answered he should raise his hands towards the Heaven
as if importuning Allah for granting his wish.
NINETH CONDITION: The supplicant should give alms to poor and
needy because these are the servants of Allah.They are like the janitors at
a king’s palace. To reach the king, one has to please the janitors.
TENTH CONDITION: One should make others needs the medium of
conveying his own prayers for acceptance. If one approaches a munificent person and places the needs of others ahead of his own requirement, the donor will be pleased with the concern of the person for others
and fulfils his demand.
Therefore, the Prophet of Allah (a.s) has said that when one prays, he
should pray not only for himself but pray for others as well. Such prayers will be answered.
Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) says that a person remembers forty momins in
his prayers, his own prayer too will be accepted.
The Prophet of Islam (a.s) has said that a person’s prayer may not be
accepted as soon as the prayer for the one who is away, and the person
prays for him, from a distance.
366Imam Mohammed Baqir (a.s) has said that the most acceptable prayer
is one that is offered for a momin who is not present at the place.
The Prophet of Islam (a.s) has said that when a person prays in general
for the momins, Allah will keep in mind the numbers of momins past and
those yet to come and fulfils his wishes accordingly. If the person’s actions qualify him for going to Hell, the spirits of the momins would plead
with Allah for his pardon that he used to pray for them. Then Allah
would pardon him and send him to Heaven
Imam Moosa Kazim (a.s) has said when a momin prays for another
who is not present, Allah will reward him a hundred times for this act.
ELEVENTH CONDITION: For acceptance of the prayers, one should
thank Allah for His Bounties before supplicating. This is the same way,
when a person of status is approached for help, his past munificence is
mentioned.with profuse thanks.
Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) has said: If you wish your prayers to be
answered, you should first praise Allah, then say durood (benediction) for
the Prophet and his Holy Progeny (a.s) that your prayers are answered
soon. It is like when one wants to approac a king, he makes presents to
those who are close to him. Therefore it is essential that one offers benediction to the Prophet (a.s) and his family. This benediction should always be repeated before and after any prayer is made. It is natural that
when what is accepted before and after the prayer, the prayer too will be
accepted!
The Prophet of Allah (a.s) has said, “Say benediction on me and my
Ahl al Bayt so that the angels will say benediction for you. Benediction removes dissensions amongst people.”
It is said: When you hear the Prophet (a.s)’s name, offer benediction
again and again. Because when a person says the benediction once, all
the creatures would praise the person. Ignorant and unfortunate is the
person who is not aware of this requirement. Allah, the Prophet (a.s) and
the Ahl al Bayt will be annoyed with such persons.
It is mentioned in a tradition that in the balance of actions, no act has
so much weight as the benediction of the Prophet (a.s) and the Ahl al
Bayt. On the Day of Judgement, the actions of the men would be put in
the balance, but since they will be light, the scale would tilt to the other
side. Then the Prophet (a.s) would put the benedictions uttered by the
person on the side of the scale where his actions are there. Thus the balance will tilt in favor of the person!
367There is another tradition that if one wishes to save his face from the
Hellfire, then say the benediction (Salawat) a hundred times after the
morning prayer.
A person who says the benediction a hundred times after the Friday
prayer, Allah will fulfill his sixty wishes— thirty in this life and thirty in
the Hereafter.
Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) says that on the eve of Friday the angels descend from the firmament and their number is equivalent to the particles
in the atmosphere or the ants on the earth.These angels will have golden
pens and tablets in their hands. They will not record the actions of the
persons who were not attended by the benediction to the Prophet till
Saturday of the week. It is therefore advised that on the eve and the day
of Friday, the benediction is repeatedly uttered. The Imam (a.s) also said
that it was the Prophet (a.s)'s exhortation (Sunnat e Muwakkidah) that one
should repeat the benediction a thousand times on fridays and a hundred times on the week days.
Imam Reza (a.s) has said, “If a person doesn’t have the means to pay
expiation (Kaffarah) for his sins, he should utter benediction to the Prophet and his Ahl al Bayt (a.s) that it will reduce the burden of his sins.”
Imam Ali Naqi (a.s) says, “Allah has deemed Hazrat Ibrahim (a.s) His
friend because he used to excessively utter benediction to Mohammed
(a.s) and his Ahl al Bayt.”
Imam Jafar e Sadiq (a.s) says that one who says the benediction like
this,
Salawatullahi alaihi was salawatu malaekatehi wa anbiaehi wa rusulehi wa
jamie kalqehi ala Mohammadin wa aale Mohammedin wassalamu alaihi wa
alaihim wa rehmatullahi wa barkatahu,
his sins would be obliterated and he would be as clean as he way at his
birth.
Imam Mohammed Baqir (a.s) is quoted by an authentic source as having said: When one gets a sneeze, he should say:
Alhamdu lillahi rabil aalameena was salallahu Mohammedin wa ahl e baytehi
In another tradition it is said that when one hears the sound of sneezing by someone else, he should say the benediction mentioned above. He
will never, then, get pain of the teeth or the eyes.
The Prophet of Islam (a.s) has said: One who does not say benediction
on me and my progeny, will never get the fragrance of the Heaven although this smell reaches as far as the distance that can be traveled over
a period of five hundred years.
