IMAM JAA'-FAR BIN MUHAMMAD AL SAADIQ

May I
enter O my masters? May I enter O the dearest friends of Allah?May I
enter O the attentive Angels of Allah, quartered in this place of
pilgrimage?(2) While entering [put the right foot forward]
recite:Allah is the Greatest in His absolute greatness.

All
praise (in surpassingabundance) be to Allah.

Glory be to Allah in the
morning and evening.

Praise be to Allah, the eternally besought, the
Majestic, the Single, the Generous, the Bestower ofbounties, the
Benefactor, the Compassionate, who did a favour and made easy for me
the"Ziyaarat" of my masters, out of compassion and kindness, and did
not stop me from their"Ziyaarat', but helped and blessed.

(3) It is
highly desirable to recite "Ziyaarat Jaami-a'h Kabeer" and "Ziyaarat
Ameenallaah", in addition to the following:Peace
be on you, O Guides who show the Right Path! Peace be on you,O the
embodiments of piety! Peace be on you, O the manifestations of
trueevidence for the mankind! Peace be on you, O those who remained
amongthe people to establish justice and fairplay! Peace be on
you,O the personifications of purity! Peace be on you, O descendants
of the Messengerof Allah.

Peace be on you, O those who are fully aware
of the secret communications!I bear witness that, verily, you
explained the truth and gave sincere advice,exercised self-control in
the way of Allah,(whenever) people contradicted you and took liberties
with you, and had forgiven them.

I bear witness that, verily, you are
the rightly guided Guides who show the right path;verily, it is
obligatory to obey you; verily, that which you had said is
true.

verily, you invited the people, but they did not pay attention;
you gave instructions,but they did not obey; verily, you are the
mainstay of the religion, you maintain the earth,do not let it depart
from Allah's original model, Allah preserved you in the pureloins,
from the beginning to the end, He transferred you from one chaste womb to
another,did not let the dirt of ignorance (even) touch you, did not
let the disorder of vaindesires come near you to stir up trouble,
purified you [excelled you in knowledge] and thoroughlycleansed your
substance [rendered your source qualified and effective to the highest
degree ofperfection], and through you made it possible for us to
obtain recompenseon the "day of requital", so, with Allah's consent
(all of) you are privileged to glorifyand praise [make known the true
meaning of] His attributes, and the blessings we invoke foryou
(Salawaat), in fact, becomes a mercy for ourselves.

and an atonement of
our sins,because Allah has chosen you for us, refined our nature and
mannersthrough that which He, as a favour, has provided us-our love
for you; by knowing you, we, before Allah,are considered
exalted, we are included among those who "profess the true faith"
becausewe believe in your truthfulness This is the place where one,
who has exceeded the bounds and hasdone wrong, discovers his own sorry
plight, and taking advantage, makes a clean confession andhopes to
obtain salvation, and finally is saved from the danger through you,and
thus the condemned escape the total destruction, Therefore, you are my
intercessors,I have come to you, usually people run away from you, and
laugh at the signs of Allah,treat them with haughtiness.

O He who
is Ever-Vigilant, never forgets one thing over another; (who is)
Everlasting Eternal,never passes away the time (free from space-time),
surrounds and keeps under controlall things, (all) bounties
belong to Thee, through which, Thou prospers andassists me, and made
me know that (love of Ahlul Bayt) which binds mesecurely with Thy
bounties, whereas (some of) Thy servants turn aside, and ignore it due to
lack ofknowledge, carelessly make light of its obligation, and turn to
mediocrity instead ofmaking use of it (love of Ahlul Bayt); so, do a
favour to me and includeme among the special group which stay closely
attached with them (the Ahlul Bayt).

(All) praise be to Thou, because I
am here, duly thought of and summoned up,so, do not deny me that which
I long for, do not let me fall short of thatfor which Thou has invited
me, in the name of the sanctity of Muhammad and his puredescendants;
blessings of Allah be on Muhammad and on the children of
Muhammad.
