TEN DUAS FOR FUFILLMENT OF PETITIONS (REQUESTS)
Muhammad ibn Harith al-Nawfali, the servant of Imam Muhammad al-Taqi (a), has reported that when al-Mamun,
the Abbasid ruler, decided to give his daughter in marriage to Imam Muhammad ibn Ali (a), the Imam (a) wrote
to him this message:
Every wife must be given a dowry from the property of her husband. As for us, Almighty Allah has put off our
properties to give them to us in the Hereafter just as He has given you your properties in advance in this worldly life.
I thus decide to dower your daughter with the means to the response to the petitions. A number of confidential
prayers, my father has given me these supplicatory means and said that he received them from his father Musa, who
told that he had received them from his father Jafar, who told that he had received them from his father
Muhammad, who told that he had received them from his father Ali, who told that he had received them from his
father al-Husayn, who told that he had received them from his brother al-Hasan, who told that he had received them
from his father Ali ibn Abi-Talib, who told that he had received them from the Holy Prophet Muhammad, who told
that he had received them from Archangel Gabriel who said, Muhammad, the Almighty Lord conveys His greetings
to you and says that He is carrying to You the keys to the treasures of this world and the Next World. He thus advises
you to use them as the means to the response to your petitions. Through these confidential prayers, you can attain
your desires and succeed in winning your requests. Therefore, do not use them in this-worldly requests rather than
the otherworldly requests; lest, you will lessen the value of your otherworldly prizes. These means are ten
supplicatory prayers by which you can knock on the doors of your desires and they will be opened before you, and
you can ask for things, and you will be given access to them.
