DUA'A - UL - A'DEELA
This dua'a contains the articles offaith. Every faithful must recite
this dua'a regularly to drive awayShaytan, and to remain firm in the
true faith. A dying faithful, in the last moments of life, should
recite this dua'a, or , if it is not possible, ask someone else to
read it aloud for him or her, so asnot to be misled by doubts whichmay
come into the mind, or not to be depressed emotionally, because these
forces together with the misleading suggestions of Shaytan, more often
than not, in the last hour of life, make mandie a death of an infidel
or hypocrite.

Allah (Himself) is witness that there is no god but He.
The angles and the men of wisdom, standing firm for justice(too are witness).
That there is no god but He, the Almighty, the All-Wise. Verily,
religion with Allah is Islam.
And I, a timid servant, sinful, guilty, insignificant, needy,
destitute, give witness of my Benefactor, my creator, my Sustainer,
and my liberal patron, just as He Himself testifies, and testify the
Angles and the men of wisdom, His servants, that verily there is no
god but He, Possessor of bounties and favours, generosity and
blessings.
Eternal almighty, Ever-lasting, knower, One and only Ever-living,
Ever-existing, Hearer, seer, willing, discriminating, Aware,
Independent. Worthy is He of these attributes, although, truly
speaking, He is over and above attribution. He was Almighty prior to
the actuality of might and power was created. He was wise before the
conception of knowledge and reason was brought about. He was Absolute
Sovereign even when there was no kingdom or possession. He is Glory
under al circumstances. His supreme Being is prior to antecedence, and
Eternal, without a beginning. He will survive continually beyond the
end of everything, imperishable, and without an end. He has no needs;
in the beginning as well asin the end. He is able free from
dependence, by Himself, whether inward, or outward, There is no
injustice in His Judgment, no unfairness in His management, no
oppression in His administration.
(It is) impossible to deny His Sovereignty, or to run away from His
firm grip, or to avoid His punishment. His mercy overtakes his anger.
If a (handicapped) person asks for anything from Him, unable to
approach Him (properly) on account of frustrating trouble, he is
treated in the matter of fulfillment at parwith an able beseecher. He
has given capacity to carry out (His) commands, has made it easy to
avoid (His ) prohibitions and has not made obedience cumbersome but
according to one's competency.
Glory be to he! How much kind is He! Highest is His glory. Glory be to
He! How wonderful His gifts! And certainly his favours are countless.
He sent down Prophets to explain clearly His justice, appointed guides
to make known his power and generosity, and put us among the ummah
(followers) of the Prophet-in-chief, the closest friend of Allah, the
superlative being, and the most pious, Muhammad, Allah's blessings
andpeace be on him and on his descendants.
We paid attention to him, believed in what he said, and in the Holy
Quran, Thou revealed to him, and in his successor Ali, appointed by
him on the day of Ghadeer, and identified in clear words: "This is
Ali". I testify that there are pious Imams and righteous successors,
after the chosen Messenger , from Ali, the subduer of infidels. After
him, his eldest son, Hasan bin Ali, thereafter his brother, Husayn,
the grandson of the Messenger ofAllah, obedience unto whom is the will
of Allah; then Ali, the adorer of Allah (A'abid), then Muhammad, the
treasure of knowledge (Baaqir), then Ja'far, the truthful (S'aadiq),
then Moosathe sagacious (Kaaz'im), then Ali the devoted (Riz'aa), then
Muhammad the pious (Taqiyy), then Ali the (Naqiyy), then Hasan the
gatherer (A'skariyy), then, theawaited saviour, evident argument and
established successor, my hope, because of hose perpetuity, the world
is going on; because of whose blessings all living beings get their
daily bread, because of whose presence, the heaven and the earth stay
stable; and through him Allah will fill the earth with equity and
justice, when it is run over with tyranny and oppression.
I bear witness that their words are decisive arguments; to followtheir
example is obligatory, to obey them is compulsory, to love them is
necessary (because it has been) preordained, to take after them is
sure salvation, to oppose them is certain destruction. They are the
chiefs of the people of paradise, effective helpers on the Dayof
Judgment, the best guides for the mankind, surely the best approved
successors. I testify that death is certain, interrogation in the
grave is certain, raising of the dead is certain, Siraat (the bridge
over hell) is certain, Meezan (trail) is certain, Hisaab
(accountability) is certain, The Book (Holy Quraan) istrue, paradise
is real, Hell is real, and certainly there is no doubt in the hour of
resurrection. Verily Allah shall raise the dead from their graves.
O Allah! I hope to receive Thy favour, Thy generosity and mercy I
expect for getting into paradise,for my conduct gives me no right,for
obtaining Thy bliss as I was not obedient, except that I believe Thy
Oneness, and Thy Justice. I depend upon Thy favours, and Thy
generosity. Accommodated me for the sake of my Prophet and his
progeny, Thy beloved friends. Thou art the most Generous, the most
Merciful. O Allah send blessings on the best creature, Muhammad, and
on his pious andpure progeny. There is no authority and no might
except Allah's, the High, the Great. (All) praise is for Allah, the
lord of the worlds. My Allah! O the most Merciful, I deposit my
beliefs and religion with Thee as a Trust, Thou art the best of all
trustees, We have been commanded to preserve that which is entrusted
to us, so give back (what I have deposited now) at the time of mydeath
and when "Mankar and Nakeer" will question me, for the sake of
Muhammad and his pure and pious progeny, through Thy Mercy, O the Most
Merciful.

so, (please) keep for me this deposit to give it back to me at the

وَعِنْدَ مُسَاءَلَةِ مُنْكَرٍ وَنَكِيرٍ
wa `inda mus¡'alati munkarin wa nak¢rin
and at the time of the interrogation of Munkar and Nak¢r;
بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا ا رْحَمَ ٱلرَّاحِمِينَ
bira¦matika y¡ ar¦ama alrr¡¦im¢na
[I beseech You] in the name of Your mercy; O most Merciful of all
those who show mercy.
Many authentically reported supplications have comprised the following
statement:
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي ا عُوذُ بِكَ مِنَ ٱلعَدِيلَةِ عِنْدَ ٱلْمَوْتِ
all¡humma inn¢ a`£dhu bika mina al`ad¢lati `indaalmawti
O Allah, I seek Your protection against deviation at the hour of death.
Deviation at the hourof death stands for shifting from the right to
the wrong at the hour of death. To explain, Satan attends at the hour
of death in order to deceivethe moribund and suggest evil to him in
order to make him doubtabout his religion. If Satan succeeds, he will
pull out faith from the heart of the dying person. To avoid that, many
supplications have comprised statements of seeking Almighty Allah's
protection against deviation at death. Fakhr al-Mu¦aqqiq¢n says, "To
escape deviation at the hour of death, one should bethink the proofs
of creed in which he believes, as well as thefive principles of the
religion with all of their irrefutable evidences, with absolute
sincerity and purity and should then trust them with Almighty Allah
beseeching Him for giving them back at the hour of dying. This can be
done by saying the following prayer:
اللَّهُمَّ يَا ا رْحَمَ ٱلرَّاحِمِينَ
all¡humma y¡ ar¦ama alrr¡¦im¢na
O Allah, O most Merciful ofall those who show mercy,
إِنِّي ا وْدَعْتُكَ يَقِينِي هٰذَا وَثَبَاتَ دِينِي
inn¢ qad awda`tuka yaq¢n¢ h¡dh¡ wa thab¡ta d¢n¢
I am depositing with You this faith of mine and my firmness on this belief;
وَا نتَ خَيْرُ مُسْتَوْدَعٍ
wa anta khayru mustawda`in
and You are the ever-bestof all those who keep deposits.
وَقَدْ ا مَرْتَنَا بِحِفْظِ ٱلْوَدَائِعِ
wa qad amartan¡ bi¦if¨i alwad¡'i`i
You have commanded us to keep safe deposits thatare put with us;
فَرُدَّهُ عَلَيَّ وَقْتَ حُضُورِ مَوْتِي
faruddah£ `alayya waqta¦u¤£ri mawt¢
so, (please) keep for me this deposit to give it back to me at the
time of my death
According to the view of Fakhr al-Mu¦aqqiq¢n, Du`¡' al-`Ad¢lah along
with calling its contents in one's mind grants security against the
danger of deviation at the hour of death. The question whether this
supplication has been reported from the Holy Imams, peace be upon
them, or has been composed by a certain scholar is controversial.
Concerning this, our master °¡jj M¢rz¡ °usayn al-N£r¢, a
master°ad¢thist and well-versedin the reports of the Holy Imams, peace
be upon them, says that Du`¡' al-`Ad¢lah has been composed by some
scholars since it cannot be found in the famous books of °ad¢th.
A similar prayer is Hifz emaan:-
It is also worth mentioning that Shaykh al-±£s¢ has narrated that
Mu¦ammad ibn Sulaym¡n al-Daylam¢ said to Imam Ja`far al-¯¡diq (`a)
"Your adherents say that Faith is of two sections; one is steady and
the other depository. So, please teach me a supplication that makes my
faith perfect and saves it from removal."
Imam al-¯¡diq (`a) hence taught him to say the following prayer after
each obligatory prayer:
رَضِيتُ بِٱللَّهِ رَبّاً
ra¤¢tu bill¡hi rabban
I have submitted to Allah being my Lord,
وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّىٰ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْهِوآلِهِ نَبِيّاً
wa bimu¦ammadin ¥all¡ all¡hu `alayhi wa ¡lih¢ nabiyyan
to Mu¦ammad—may Allahsend blessings to him andhis Household—being [my] Prophet,
وَبِٱلإِسْلاَمِ دِيناً
wa bil-isl¡mi d¢nan
to Islam being my religion,
وَبِٱلْقُرْآنِ كِتَاباً
wa bilqur'¡ni kit¡ban
to the Qur'¡n being my book,
وَبِٱلْكَعْبَةِ قِبْلَةً
wa bilka`bati qiblatan
to the Ka`bah being my direction,
وَبِعَلِيٍّ وَلِيّاً وَإِمَاماً
wa bi`aliyyin waliyyan wa im¡man
to `Al¢ being my guardian and leader,
وَبِٱلْحَسَنِ وَٱلْحُسَيْنِ
wa bil¦asani wal¦usayni
to al-°asan, al-°usayn,
وَعَلِىٰ بْنِ ٱلْحُسَيْنِ وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ
wa `aliyyi bni al¦usayni wa mu¦ammadi bni `aliyyin
`Al¢ ibn al-°usayn, Mu¦ammad ibn `Al¢,
وَجَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَمُوسىٰ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ
wa ja`fari bni mu¦ammadin wa m£s¡ ibni ja`farin
Ja`far ibn Mu¦ammad, M £ s ¡ ibn Ja`far,
وَعَلِىٰ بْنِ مُوسَىٰ وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ
wa `aliyyi bni m£s¡ wa mu¦ammadi bni `aliyyin
`Al¢ ibn M£s¡, Mu¦ammad ibn `Al¢,
وَعَلِىٰ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَٱلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ
wa `aliyyi bni mu¦ammadin wal¦asani bni `aliyyin
`Al¢ ibn Mu¦ammad, al-°asan ibn `Al¢,
وَٱلْحُجَّةِ بْنِ ٱلْحَسَنِ
wal¦ujjati bni al¦asani
and the Argument [of Allah] and the son of al-°asan,
صَلَوَاتُ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْهِمْ ا ئمَّةً
¥alaw¡tu all¡hi `alayhim a'immatan
Allah's blessings be upon them, being my leaders.
اَللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي رَضيتُ بِهِمْ ا ئِمَّةً
all¡humma inn¢ ra¤¢tu bihim a'immatan
O Allah, I submit to them as my leaders;
فَا رْضَنِي لَهُمْ
fa-ar¤an¢ lahum
so, make me accepted in their sight.
إِنَّكَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيء قَديرٌ
innaka `al¡ kulli shay'in qad¢run
Verily, You have power over all things.
