FROM Tafseer Imam Hassan (as) book
The Prophet(saws) told Zaid (r.a.): If you desire to be protected from their harmful plots, recite
the following Du’a everyday early in the morning:
By the blessing of these words, Almighty Allah will protect you from their evil. No doubt, these
hypocrites are like devils, who talk flatteringly to deceive. But if you want to be protected from
drowning, fire and loss of property, recite this supplication every morning:
ِبۡس ِم ِہللا َم ا َش ا َء ُہللا ۔ اَل َیِرۡص ُف الُّس ۡو َء ِا َآل ُہللا ِبۡس ِم ِہللا ِم ا َش اَء ُہللا اَل َیُس ۡو ُق اۡلَخ َرۡی ِااَّل
ِبۡس ِم ِہللا َم ا شاَء ُہللا ۔ ال حۡو َل َو اَل، َم ا َیُک ۡو ُن ِم ۡن ِنۡع مٍۃ َفِم َن ِہللا، ُہللا ِبۡس ِم ِہللا َم ا شاَء ُہللا
ُقَّو َۃ ِا َآل اِب ِہلل اۡلَعِّیل اۡلَع ِظ ِمۡی ِبۡس ِم ِہللا َم ا شاَء ُہللا َو َص یّل ُہللا ٰعیٰل ُم حَّم ٍد َو آِلِہ الَّط ِّیِب َنۡی ۔
In the name of Allah, as Allah willed – None removes the troubles except Allah. In the Name of
Allah, as Allah willed. None sends any good except Allah. In the Name of Allah, as Allah
willed, there is no power and strength except with Allah, the High and Mighty. In the Name of
Allah, as Allah willed, and may Allah bless Muhammad and his pure progeny.
One, who recites this prayer thrice in the morning, will be protected from drowning, burning and
theft, until the evening, and if one recites it in the evening, he will be safe from these calamities
until the morning next. Then the Holy prophet (s.aw.a.s) said: every year during the Hajj, Al-
Khidhr and Ilyas (a.s) meet one another, and when they depart.
َو َال َحْو َل َو َال ُقَّو َة ِاَّال ِباِهلل اْلَعِلِّی اْلَعِظ ْيِم َالَّلُه َّم ِاَّياَك َنْع ُبُد َو ِاَّياَك َنْس َتِعْيُن َيا. ِبْس ِم اِهلل الَّر ْح ٰم ِن الَّر ِح ْيِم

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. And there is no strength or power except with
Allah, the Great and High. O Allah we worship You and from You only we seek help. O Allah!
O Merciful! O Compassionate! O the one! O the self-sufficient! O God of Muhammad! (Peace of
Allah be on him and his progeny). In Your domain feet are moving ahead and with the presence
of heart, eyes are awaiting, necks are stretched high, where desires are asked and hands are lifted.
O Allah! You judge between us and our nation with truth, as You are the best of the judges.
It is quoted from the elders and Shaykhs: One who is involved in difficulties and problems and
wishes to find a way out, should recite the following, nineteen times after every prayer:
. َنِّج َنا َو َخ ِّلْصَنا ِبَح ِّق ِبْس ِم اِهلل الَّر ْح ٰم ِن الَّر ِح ْيِم، َنَج اٌة ِّم ْنَك َيا َس ِّيِد ْى اْلَك ِر ْيِم
Najaatum minka yaa sayyidil kareem. Najjinaa wa khallis’naa bih’aqqi bismillaahir rah’maanir
rah’eem.
Success is from You O my kind Chief. Give us success and make us sincere by the right of “in
the name of Allah, the Beneficent the Merciful”.
If he repeats these words 786 times it would be perfect and complete. Also for escaping the
unjust and for achieving important objectives, it is necessary for him that he recite these words
73 times in a single sitting, then he should recite them facing the Qibla in a state of ritual purity,
and after completing it, he should recite Salawat 3 times and mention his needs. They shall be
fulfilled, if Allah wills.
Supplication for protection and safety
It is narrated in a tradition from Imam Zainul Abideen (a.s.) that he said: One who recites this
supplication, if all the jinns and men come together to cause harm to him, they could not harm
him. It is as follows:
َو ِإَلْيَك وَّج ْهُت، ِبْس ِم اِهلل َو ِباِهلل َو ِم َن اِهلل َو ِإَلی اِهلل َو ِفْى َس ِبْيِل اِهلل َالَّلُه َّم ِإَلْيك َاْس َلْم ُت َنْف ِس ْى

wa min tah’tee wadfa’ a’nnee bih’aulika wa quwwatika wa laa h’aula wa laa quwwata illaa
billaahil a’leeyil a’z’eem.
In the name of Allah and by Allah and from Allah and for the sake of Allah. O Allah I submit my
self to Thee, and towards You I have turned my face, and towards You I have entrusted my
affair. And protect me by the safety of faith from before me and from behind me, and from my
right and from my left and from above me and from below me. And ward off from me by Your
power and Your strength; and there is no power and might except by Allah, the Exalted and the
Mighty.[1]
It is narrated from Imam as-Sadiq (a.s.) that he said: When you are angry say:
َو َاُعْو ُذ، َاسَاُلَك ِر َض اَك، َو َاِج ْر ِنْي ِم ْن ُمِض َّالِت اْلِف َتِن، و اْغِف ْر ِلْى َذْنِبْى، َالَّلُه َّم َاْذِه ْب َعِّنْي َغْيَظ َقْلِبْى
، َو َاُعْو ُذ ِبَك ِم َن الَّش ِّر ُك ُّلُه، َو َاْس َاُلَك اْلَخ ْيَر ُك ُّلُه، َو َاُعْو ُذ ِبَك ِم ْن َناِر َك، ِبَك ِم ْن َس َخ ِط َك َاْس َاُلَك َج َّنِتَك
. َو اْجَعْلِنْي َر اِض ًيا َمْر ِض ًّيا َغْيَر َض اٍّل َو َال ُمِض ٍّل، َالَّلُه َّم َثِّبْتِنْي َعٰل ی اْلُه ٰد ی َو الَّص َو اِب
Allaahumma adh-hib a’nnee ghaiz’a qalbee. Waghfirlee dhambee wa ajirnee mim maz”allaatil
fitani as-aluka riz”aaka. Wa ao’o’dhubika min sakhat’ika as-aluka jannatik. Wa ao’o’dhubika

thabbitnee a’lal hudaa was’ s’awaab. Waj-a’lnee raaz”iyam marz”iyan ghaira z”aallinw wa laa
muz”il.
O Allah take away from me the anger of my heart, and forgive me my sins, and take me away
from mischief and deviations. I ask You Your pleasure, and I seek refuge of Your displeasure. I
ask You Your Paradise and seek refuge by You from Your Fire (Hell). And I ask You for all the
good and seek refuge from all evils. O Allah, make me firm on guidance and the correct way,
and make me satisfied and able to satisfy You, and not a deviant and deviator.[1]
When you intend to repel a person or a group of people you don’t like, say:
. َو َك اَن اُهلل َعٰل ی ُك ِّل َش ْی ٍء ُّمْق َتِد ًر ا، َتْذ ُرْو هُ الِّر ٰيُح.ِِبْس ِم اِهلل الَّر ْح ٰم ِن الَّر ِح ْيم
Bismillaahir rah’maanir rah’eem. “Tadhroohur riyaah’u wa kaanallaahu a’laa kulli shai-im
muqtadiraa.”
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent the Merciful. Which the winds scatter; and Allah is the
holder of power over all things.[2]
َر َّبَنا اْك ِش ْف َعَّنا اْلَعَذ اَب ِاَّنا ُمْو ِم ُنْو َن
Rabbanakshif a’nnal a’dhaaba innaa mu-minoon.
Read them softly (to yourself) then say: By the right of these blessed verses separate them from
me.
For destruction of the oppressor
Shaykh Kamaluddin ad-Damiri has mentioned in his book, Hayatul Haiwan: One who recites
Surah Feel a thousand times every day for ten days continuously and makes an intention of what
he desires and on the tenth day he should sit on flowing water and say:
O Allah, You are cognizant of all the hidden things of the secrets and intentions. O Allah, the
oppressors are more and the helpers are less. And You are the informed One, the Knowing, that
so and so has oppressed me and hurt me and except for You, none is a witness upon that. O Allah
indeed You are the owner. O Allah, degrade him absolutely and strip him off his oppressions.
Then say:
. َفَاَخ َذ ُه ُم اُهلل ِبُذ ُنْو ِبِه ْم َو َما َك اَن َلُه ْم ِم َن اِهلل ِم ْن َّو اٍق
Fa-akhadha humullaahu bidhunoobihim wa maa kaana lahum minallaahi minw waaq.
But Allah destroyed them for their sins; and there was not for them any defender against Allah.
[6]
Zamakhshari has mentioned in Rabiul Abrar that a man complained to al-Hasan (a.s.) that a
person had oppressed him. The Imam said: When you pray two units of prayer after the evening
(Maghrib) prayer, go into prostration and say:
َف ِّل َعٰل ی َّم ٍد ٰاِلِه اْك ِفِن ْؤ َنَة ُفَالٍن، ا َعِزْي َاذلّلَت ِبِعَّز ِتَك ِم ْي ِم َخ َلْق َت، ا َش ِد ْيَد اْلِم اِل
ُمَح َو َو ْي َم َص َج َع ْن َح َي ُز َي
. ِبَم ا ِش ْئَت
Yaa shadeedal mih’aali, yaa a’zeezu adhlillata bi-i’zzatika jameea’ min khalaqta fas’alli a’laa
muh’ammadinw wa aalihi wakfinee mau-nata fulaanim bimaa shi-t.
O One most difficult to comprehend, O Powerful One, by Your power You suppress all those
You have created. Then bless Muhammad and his progeny and save me from the evil of so and
so by whatever You wish.
Before he even realizes it, there would be a scream in the house of the oppressor. Shaykh Mufid
has also mentioned this narration with the following words:
. ِاْك ِفِنْي ٰه َذ ا الَّطاِغ َيِة َو اْنَتِق ْم ِلْى ِم ْنُه، َو َيا َذا اْلِعَّز ِة اَّلِتْى ُك ُّل َخ ْلِق َك َلَه ا َذِلْيٌل،َيا َذا اْلُقَّو ِة اْلَق ِو َّيِة
Yaa dhal quwwatil qaweeyati, yaa dhal i’zzatillatee kullu khalqika lahaa dhaleel. ikfinee
haadhat’ t’aaghiyati wan taqim lee minhu.
O One with a strong might, and O one with might with which everything that You created is
debased. Save me from this tyrant and take my revenge from him.[8]
Reciting Bismillah for removing difficulties and for destruction of the oppressor
It is quoted from some scholars that one who is involved in problems and calamities and desires
to escape from them, he should recite 19 times after every ritual prayer:
. َنِّج َنا َو َخ ِّلْصَنا ِبَح ِّق ِبْس ِم اِهلل الَّر ْح ٰم ِن الَّر ِح ْيِم، َنَج اٌة ِم ْنَك َيا َس ِّيِد ى اْلَك ِر ْيِم
Najaatum minka yaa sayyidil kareem. Najjinaa wa khallis’naa bih’aqqi bismillaahir rah’maanir
rah’eem.
Salvation is from You, O Kind Chief, save us and release us by the right of: In the name of
Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
When he recites it 786 times it would be complete and perfect.
For release from the oppressor and achieving important objects recite the following 73 times in a
single sitting facing the Qibla and having ritual purity, and after completing it, he should recite
Salawat three times and then ask for ones needs; they would be fulfilled soon, if Allah wills. (It
is of the proven remedies).[1]
Recite Ayatul Kursi for seven days, at sunrise, facing the Qibla before speaking to anyone 21
times. When you reach “ya’lamu maa baina” point in the direction of the enemy, and there is no
doubt that he will be destroyed. And when you reach “yashfa-u’ I’ndahu” make intention of
gaining the affection of that person, and there is no doubt that he would obtain his affection. It is
acknowledged to be effective with the condition that it should be strictly for permissible matters.
[2]
O Allah, O remover of sorrow, and the dispeller of sadness, and the curer of griefs and the
answerer of prayers of the troubled ones, O Beneficent one of the world and the hereafter and the
forgiver of the two. You are Beneficent for me and Beneficent for everything. Then give me such
a mercy that I become needless of all mercy from others than You. And through it liquidate my
debts.
. َو ِبَف ْض ِلَك َعَّم ْن ِس َو اَك َيا َاْرَح َم الَّر اِح ِم ْيَن، َالَّلُه َّم َاْغِنِنْي ِبَح َالِلَك َعْن َح َر اِم َك
Allaahumma aghninee bih’alaalika a’n h’araamika bifaz”lika a’mman siwaaka yaa arh’amar
raah’imeen.
O Allah, make me self-sufficient by Your permissible from Your prohibited and through Your
grace from those other than You. O the best of the merciful ones.[3]
Recite the following 970 times: ( كهيعصKaaf Haa Yaa A’in S’aad)
If he is able to, he must accompany it by the word:( حمعسقH’aa Meem A’in Seen Qaaf) and
recite both the words in a single sitting 2500 time then recite the prayer for needs and it is proven
effective.
The writer: Recite the letters of the words separately ك هـ ي ع صKaaf – Haa – Yaa – A’in – S’aad.

O One Who is not asleep that he should be awakened, and One Who is never forgetful that he
should be reminded, One Who is not absent that he should be waited for. O One Who is what He
is. O One Who does not know what He is but that He is. O one Who does not know how He is
but that He is. O Creator of the heavens and the earth and what is between them. Become a
barrier between me and the one who is causing harm to me or wants to take revenge from me.
Indeed You are powerful over everything.
Remember that it is a great supplication, and well known for being effective for that which you
are afraid of.[5]
Another Supplication
It is narrated from the Prophet (s.a.w.s.) that he said: One who encounters a problem in the
worldly matters or those of the Hereafter, should recite three times:
Is not Allah sufficient for His servant? And are we not supposed to rely on Allah while He has
guided us on our paths, and indeed we would be patient when subjected to hardships. And upon
Allah should rely the reliant ones. O Allah, I have halted at Your door and approached Your
court. Then do for me what is the best of You by Your mercy, O the best of the merciful ones.
It is narrated from Amirul Momineen (a.s.) that one who is being oppressed should perform
ablution and pray 2 units of prayers and prolong the bowings and after concluding the prayer say:
Repeat this a thousand times and you would be helped very soon.
Sayyid Ali bin Tawus (t.s.) has mentioned in Kitabul Daroo’: One who intends to suffice his
enemy should undertake on the first night of the month to look at the crescent moon and point
towards the house of one from whose mischief he wants to remain safe, and say:
. َيا َعِلُّى َيا َعِظ ْيُم، َو َطْيٍر َاَباِبيٍل، ِاْر ِمِه ِبِح َج اَر ٍة ِم ْن ِس ِّج ْيٍل، َو َعِّم ُه ِباْلَبَالِء َعًّم ا،َالَّلُه َّم َطِّم ُه ِبالَبَالِء َطًّم ا
allaahumma t’ammIhu bil balaa-i t’ammanW wa a’mmahu bil balaa-i a’mmaN. IrMihi
bih’ijaaratiM min sijjeelinw wa t’airin abaabeel. Yaa a’leeyU yaa a’z’eem.
O Allah, push him in the earth and bury him, make him blind by the calamities so that he
becomes blind, throw at him from pebbles of baked clay and send down (to prey) upon them
birds in flocks. O the High and the Great!
Then he should make intention towards him for two days, he would suffice for his mischief, if
Allah the High, wills. Do this at the time of new moon.
It is narrated from the Prophet (s.a.w.s.): Then say in the second and the third night, then you
would succeed. If not, repeat it in the second month and if you are still not successful, repeat it in
the third month, and if Allah, the Exalted wills, you will indeed succeed this time. [7]
It is narrated from Abi Abdullah (a.s.) that he said: If you are surrounded by afflictions do not
(invoke curse) pray against your companion, for even if one is oppressed, one curses and himself
becomes an oppressor. Thus if you are oppressed, perform the ritual bath (Ghusl) and pray two
units of prayer under open sky then recite:
، الَّس اَعَة، َفاْس َتَو َّف ِلْى ُظَالَم ِتْى، َالَّلُه َّم ِإَّن ُفَالَن اْبَن ُفَالٍن َظَلَم ِنْي َو َلْيَس ِلْى َاَح ٌد ُاُصْو ُل ِبِه َغْيُر َك

O Allah, so and so son of so and so has oppressed me and there is no resort for me except You.
Then remove his oppression from me. Right now, right now, right now. By the name the
distressed one asks You and You remove harm from him. And You settle him in the earth and
appoints Him as Your Caliph on Your creatures. Then I am also asking You to bless Muhammad
and the progeny of Muhammad that You remove for me my oppression, this moment, this
moment.
You would not complete it, but you’ll see what you like most.
It is narrated from as-Sadiq (a.s.) that he said: Perform the Wudhu properly, at any time you like,
then pray two units of prayers, complete the two bowings. When you conclude it, rub your cheek
on the ground while reciting:َر َّباُه َيا yaa rabbaahU O Lord!

O One Who destroyed the Ad first and then the Thamud and they did not survive, and the people
of Nuh previously. They were of those most unjust and rebellious. They followed the passions.
Then they were covered with what covers. That so and so son of so and so is unjust in what he
has done to me. Then appoint on him Your promise and do not appoint for him Your
forbearance, O the most proximate of the proximate ones.
Prayer of difficulties[10]
Al-Kazim (a.s.) said: Pray as many rakats of Prayer as you like. When you conclude, put your
cheeks and forehead on the earth and say:
Recite the above three times. Then put the right cheek on the ground and say:
. َقْد َو َح ِّق َك َاْع َيا َصْبِر ْى َفَف ِّر ْج َعِّنْي، َيا ُمَذ َّل ُك ِّل َج َّباٍر َيا ُمِعَّز ُك ِّل َذِلْيٍل
yaa mudhalla kulli jabbaarin yaa mui’zza kulli dhaleelin, qad wa h’aqqIka aa’yaa s’abrEE
fafarrij a’nnEE.
O One Who debases all the tyrants and honors all the dishonored ones, indeed by Your right, my
patience has reached its limit. So remove it from me.
Recite this also three times, then put the left cheek on the earth and say in the same way three
times, then put your forehead on the earth and say:
I testify that all the deities that are on the earth below Your sky are all false except Your face.
You are aware of my grief. Then remove it from me.
Say this three times. Then sit down when your heart softens and say:

Kadhaalikallaahu rabbEE…
O Allah You are the Living, the Eternal, the High and the Great. The Creator of the living things.
The giver of life and death. The Originator, for You is the kindness and for You is the praise and
for you is the favor, and for You is the generosity. Your Oneness, there is no partner for You. O
the One, O the Unique, O the Self-sufficient. O One Who does not beget and is not begotten.
And there is none like Him. Such is Allah, my Lord.
Invoke blessings (O Allah) on Muhammad and the Progeny of Muhammad, the truthful ones.
Recite two units of prayer and recite whichever chapter of Quran you like and invoke blessings
upon Muhammad and the progeny of Muhammad as much as you can. Then say:

O Allah, for You is the day when You will take revenge from the oppressors for the oppressed
one. But my sorrow and distress overpower my patience due to delay from Your side while You
indeed know that so and so has oppressed me and had been unjust to me by his power upon my
weakness. Then I ask You, O Lord of Majesty (and the distributor of sustenance) and the slayer
of the tyrants and the helper of the oppressed ones, that You show him Your power. I swear by
You, O Lord of the Might, right now, just now.
