8ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الْخَزَّازِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ لَيْسَ عَلَى النِّسَاءِ جَهْرٌ بِالتَّلْبِيَةِ وَلا اسْتِلامُ الْحَجَرِ وَلا دُخُولُ الْبَيْتِ وَلا سَعْيٌ بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالْمَرْوَةِ يَعْنِي الْهَرْوَلَةَ.

8. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from abu Ayyub al-Khazzaz from abu Basir who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘It is not necessary for women to say al-Talbiyah (here I am, O Lord, to obey Your command) aloud, touch the Black Stone, enter the House or Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah that is in a trotting (step).”’

9ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُوسَى عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ الله (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) اسْتَلِمُوا الرُّكْنَ فَإِنَّهُ يَمِينُ الله فِي خَلْقِهِ يُصَافِحُ بِهَا خَلْقَهُ مُصَافَحَةَ الْعَبْدِ أَوِ الرَّجُلِ يَشْهَدُ لِمَنِ اسْتَلَمَهُ بِالْمُوَافَاةِ.

9. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah from Ahmad ibn Musa from Ali ibn Ja’far from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said this. ‘You should touch the corner (of the Black Stone); it is the right hand of Allah among His creatures with which He shakes hands with His creatures, like shaking hands by a slave - or a man (uncertainty is by the narrator) - and those who touch it bear witness to their standing up to their covenant.’”

10ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اسْتِلامِ الْحَجَرِ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْبَابِ فَقَالَ أَ لَيْسَ إِنَّمَا تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَسْتَلِمَ الرُّكْنَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ يُجْزِئُكَ حَيْثُ مَا نَالَتْ يَدُكَ.

10. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Nu’man from Sa‘id al-’A‘raj who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about touching the Black Stone from the side of the door. He (the Imam) said, ‘Is it not the case that you want to touch the corner?’ I said, ‘Yes, that is what I want.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Whichever way your hand reaches is sufficient.’”

1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr and Muhammad ibn Isma‘il from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr and Safwan ibn Yahya from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that one must walk seven times around the Ka'bah. During Tawaf, one should say, ‘O Allah, I appeal before You through Your name by which one walks on water just as one walks on hard land. I appeal before You through Your name for which Your Throne vibrates. I appeal before You through Your name for which the feet of Your angels shake. I appeal before You through Your name by which Moses called You from the side of Mount Tur. You answered his call and placed on him love from Yourself. I appeal before You through Your name because of which You granted forgiveness to Muhammad (SAW), for his past and future Dhanb (shortcomings) and completed for him Your favors, grant my so and so wishes. Ask for whatever you wish.’ After you arrive near the door of al-Ka'bah say, '0 Allah, grant salawat (favors and compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause).’ Between the corner of al- Yemaniy and the Black Stone say, 'Our Lord, grant us good in this world and in the next life and protect us from hellfire.’ During your Tawaf (walking around the Ka'bah) say, '0 Allah, I need You and I am afraid. I seek protection. Do not change my body and do not change my name.”’

2ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ مُسْكَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَيُّوبُ أَخُو أُدَيْمٍ عَنِ الشَّيْخِ قَالَ قَالَ لِي أَبِي كَانَ أَبِي (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) إِذَا اسْتَقْبَلَ الْمِيزَابَ قَالَ اللهمَّ أَعْتِقْ رَقَبَتِي مِنَ النَّارِ وَأَوْسِعْ عَلَيَّ مِنْ رِزْقِكَ الْحَلالِ وَادْرَأْ عَنِّي شَرَّ فَسَقَةِ الْجِنِّ وَالإِنْسِ وَأَدْخِلْنِي الْجَنَّةَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ.

2. A number of our people have narrated, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id, from Muhammad ibn Sinan, from ‘Abd Allah ibn Muskan who has said that narrated to me Ayyub Akhu ‘Udaym, from al-Shaykh who has said the following: “Al-Shaykh (a.s.), once said to me, £ My father (a.s.), when facing al-Mizab would say, “O Allah, set my neck free from hellfire, increase my sustenance of the lawful kind and repel from me the wickedness of al-Jinn and man, and admit me in paradise through Your kindness’”

3ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ أَبِي الْبِلادِ عَنْ عَبْدِ السَّلامِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) دَخَلْتُ طَوَافَ الْفَرِيضَةِ فَلَمْ يُفْتَحْ لِي شَيْ‏ءٌ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ إِلاَّ الصَّلاةُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَسَعَيْتُ فَكَانَ كَذَلِكَ فَقَالَ مَا أُعْطِيَ أَحَدٌ مِمَّنْ سَأَلَ أَفْضَلَ مِمَّا أُعْطِيتَ.

3. Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from Ibrahim ibn abu al-Bilad from ‘Abd al-Salam ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Nu’aym who said: “I once said to Abu `Abdillah (a.s.), 'I began my obligatory Tawaf but did not know any prayer to say except the prayers upon Muhammad and the family of Muhammad. During Sa'y I also said that.' He (the Imam) said, 'No one among those who ask is given what you have been given.’”

4ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) مَا أَقُولُ إِذَا اسْتَقْبَلْتُ الْحَجَرَ فَقَالَ كَبِّرْ وَصَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِهِ قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُهُ إِذَا أَتَى الْحَجَرَ يَقُولُ الله أَكْبَرُ السَّلامُ عَلَى رَسُولِ الله (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه).

4. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from Safwan ibn Yahya from Ya’qub ibn Shu’ayb who has said the following: “I once asked Abu `Abd Allah (a.s.), 'What should I say when I face the Black Stone?’ He (the Imam) replied, 'Say Takbir (Allah is great beyond description) and say O Allah, grant salawat (favors and compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause).’ I also heard him when going near the Black Stone say Takbir (Allah is great beyond description), peace and obedience is due for the Messenger of Allah (saw).’”

5ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ كَانَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ (عَلَيْهِما السَّلاَم) إِذَا بَلَغَ الْحَجَرَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَبْلُغَ الْمِيزَابَ يَرْفَعُ رَأْسَهُ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ اللهمَّ أَدْخِلْنِي الْجَنَّةَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ وَهُوَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَى الْمِيزَابِ وَأَجِرْنِي بِرَحْمَتِكَ مِنَ النَّارِ وَعَافِنِي مِنَ السُّقْمِ وَأَوْسِعْ عَلَيَّ مِنَ الرِّزْقِ الْحَلالِ وَادْرَأْ عَنِّي شَرَّ فَسَقَةِ الْجِنِّ وَالإِنْسِ وَشَرَّ فَسَقَةِ الْعَرَبِ وَالْعَجَمِ.

5.

Then he would say, ‘O Allah, grant me protection through Your mercy against hellfire, grant me good health against illnesses, increase my sustenance from Your lawful provisions, and keep away from me the wickedness of sinful Satan in the form of Jinn, man, Arab and non- Arab people/”

6ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) يَقُولُ لَمَّا انْتَهَى إِلَى ظَهْرِ الْكَعْبَةِ حِينَ يَجُوزُ الْحَجَرَ يَا ذَا الْمَنِّ وَالطَّوْلِ وَالْجُودِ وَالْكَرَمِ إِنَّ عَمَلِي ضَعِيفٌ فَضَاعِفْهُ لِي وَتَقَبَّلْهُ مِنِّي إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ.

6. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from ‘Umar ibn ‘Udhaynah who has said the following: “I heard abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), when reaching at the backside of al-Ka‘bah after passing the Black Stone, say, ‘O Possessor of munificence, generosity and kindness, my deeds are weak, so increase them and accept them from me; You are all-Hearing and all-Knowing/”

7ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ يُسْتَحَبُّ أَنْ تَقُولَ بَيْنَ الرُّكْنِ وَالْحَجَرِ اللهمَّ آتِنَا فِي الدُّنْيَا حَسَنَةً وَفِي الآخِرَةِ حَسَنَةً وَقِنَا عَذَابَ النَّارِ وَقَالَ إِنَّ مَلَكاً مُوَكَّلاً يَقُولُ آمِينَ.

7. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from al-Nadr ibn al-Suwayd from ‘Abd Allah ibn Sinan who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that it is preferable when one is between the corner and the Black Stone to say, ‘O Allah, grant us goodness in this world as well as in the next life and protect us against hellfire/ He (the Imam) said, ‘The two guard angels will say, “Amen.’””
