أَبِی ره عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ سَلَمَهَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ یُوسُفَ بْنِ عُمَیْرٍ النَّخَعِیِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مَنْ سَمِعَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع یَقُولُ مَنْ صَلَّی رَکْعَتَیْنِ یَعْلَمُ مَا یَقُولُ فِیهِمَا انْصَرَفَ وَ لَیْسَ بَیْنَهُ وَ بَیْنَ اللَّهِ ذَنْبٌ إِلَّا غُفِرَ لَهُ.

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) says, “One who offers a two rakat Salaat paying attention to what he is reciting, there would not remain any sin between him and Allah when he concludes it and Allah would forgive all his sins.”

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ عُلْوَانَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ زَیْدِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص رَکْعَتَانِ خَفِیفَتَانِ فِی التَّفَکُّرِ خَیْرٌ مِنْ قِیَامِ لَیْلَهٍ.

1. The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) says, “A two-rakat Salaat offered with complete attention is better than to stand the whole night (in prayers).”

أَبِی ره عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ وَهْبِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص تَنَفَّلُوا فِی سَاعَهِ الْغَفْلَهِ وَ لَوْ بِرَکْعَتَیْنِ خَفِیفَتَیْنِ فَإِنَّهُمَا یُورِثَانِ دَارَ الْکَرَامَهِ قِیلَ یَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ مَا سَاعَهُ الْغَفْلَهِ قَالَ مَا بَیْنَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَ الْعِشَاءِ.

1. Abi (rah) from Sa’d b. Abdillah from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah from his father from Wahab b. Wahab from Ja’far b. Muhammad from his father from his forefathers (a.s.) who said: “One who offers a two rakat Nafila Salaat even if it is simple at the time of unawareness it would make him reach the door of Mercy (Paradise).” Someone asked, “O Messenger of Allah! What is this time of unawareness?” He replied, “It is between Maghrib and Isha prayers.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ الرَّازِیِّ عَنِ السَّکُونِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنِ النَّبِیِّ ص قَالَ: مَنْ صَلَّی مَا بَیْنَ الْجُمُعَتَیْنِ خَمْسَمِائَهِ رَکْعَهٍ فَلَهُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مَا یَتَمَنَّی مِنْ خَیْرِهِ.

Ahmad al-Razi from al-Sakuni from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) from The Prophet (s.a.w.s.) who said: “One who offers five hundred rakats of Salaat between two Fridays, anything good desired by him would be fulfilled by Allah.”

1. Imam Musa Kadhim (a.s.) narrates from his father that Amirul Momineen (a.s.) said, “One who recites Qul huwallaahu ah’ad eleven times after Morning Prayer won’t commit any sin on that day even if the Shaitaan wants him to.”

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِی الْحَوْرَاءِ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ عُلْوَانَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ أَبِی النَّجُودِ الْأَسَدِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی عُمَرَ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ ع یَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَیُّمَا امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ جَلَسَ فِی مُصَلَّاهُ الَّذِی یُصَلِّی فِیهِ الْفَجْرَ یَذْکُرُ اللَّهَ تَعَالَی حَتَّی تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ کَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ کَحَاجِّ بَیْتِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَی وَ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ فَإِنْ جَلَسَ فِیهِ حَتَّی تَکُونَ سَاعَهٌ تَحِلُّ فِیهَا الصَّلَاهُ فَصَلَّی رَکْعَتَیْنِ أَوْ أَرْبَعاً غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ مَا سَلَفَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ وَ کَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ کَحَاجِّ بَیْتِ اللَّهِ.

1. Imam Husain (a.s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said, “One who remembers Allah sitting at the place he offered Morning Prayer till sunrise is given reward equal to the number of pilgrims of the house of Allah and he would get salvation. If he sits there till the time of next Salaat and offers at least four rakat prayer all his past sins would be forgiven and he would get reward equal to performing Hajj of the House of Allah.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ أَبِی الْخَطَّابِ عَنِ الْحَکَمِ بْنِ مِسْکِینٍ عَنْ أَبِی الْعَلَاءِ الْخَفَّافِ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ ع قَالَ: مَنْ صَلَّی الْمَغْرِبَ ثُمَّ عَقَّبَ وَ لَمْ یَتَکَلَّمْ حَتَّی یُصَلِّیَ رَکْعَتَیْنِ کُتِبَتَا لَهُ فِی عِلِّیِّینَ فَإِنْ صَلَّی أَرْبَعاً کُتِبَتْ لَهُ حِجَّهٌ مَبْرُورَهٌ.

Miskeen from Abi al-’Ala al-Khafaf from Ja’far b. Muhammad (a.s.) who said: “One who recites Taaqibaat after Maghrib prayer and offers two rakat prayer without having spoken to anyone it would be written in Illiyeen and if he offers a four rakat prayer it would be counted as a pure Hajj.

أَبِی ره عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ السَّعْدَآبَادِیِّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ النَّضْرِ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص قَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلَالُهُ یَا ابْنَ آدَمَ اذْکُرْنِی بَعْدَ الْغَدَاهِ سَاعَهً وَ بَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ سَاعَهً أَکْفِکَ مَا أَهَمَّکَ.

3. Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said that Allah, the Might and Sublime said, “O children of Adam! Remember Me after Morning Prayer for an hour and after Asr prayers for an hour so that I fulfill your important wishes.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ إِبْرَاهِیمُ بْنُ هَاشِمٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِیِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ مَهْدِیٍّ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَبِی الْحَسَنِ الْأَوَّلِ ع قَالَ: مَنْ أَخْرَجَ زَکَاهَ مَالِهِ تَامّاً فَوَضَعَهَا فِی مَوْضِعِهَا لَمْ یُسْأَلْ مِنْ أَیْنَ اکْتَسَبَ مَالَهُ.

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Yahya who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Ahmad who said it was narrated to me by Abu Ishaq Ibrahim b. Hashim from al-Hassan b. Ali b. Fadhal from Mahdi a man from our companions from Abi al-Hassan the first (a.s.) who said: “One who takes out full Zakat from his wealth and disburses it in the proper manner would not be questioned from where he gathered his wealth.”

أَبِی ره حَدَّثَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِیمَ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِیِّ عَنِ السَّکُونِیِّ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِعَبْدٍ خَیْراً بَعَثَ إِلَیْهِ مَلَکاً مِنْ خُزَّانِ الْجَنَّهِ فَمَسَحَ صَدْرَهُ وَ یُسَخِّی نَفْسَهُ بِالزَّکَاهِ. وَ قَالَ أَمِیرُ الْمُؤْمِنِینَ ع فِی وَصِیَّتِهِ اللَّهَ اللَّهَ فِی الزَّکَاهِ فَإِنَّهَا تُطْفِئُ غَضَبَ رَبِّکُمْ.

2. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) narrates from his father that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said, “Whenever Allah wants to offer something good to His slave He sends the angel who is the treasurer of Paradise to that person. That angel strokes the chest of that slave and he would get the virtue of paying Zakat.” Amirul Momineen (a.s.) says in his will, “By Allah, be careful about Zakat because it silences the anger of your Lord.”
