AAMAL IN JAMADI AL AKHIRAH

Sayyid Ibn Tawus has mentioned that, at any time in the month of Jumada al-Akhirah, it is recommended to offer a four unit prayer each two alone. In the first unit, Surah al-Faatehah is recited once, Ayah al-Kursi once, and Surah al-Qadr repeated twenty-five times. In the second unit, Surah al-Faatehah is recited once, Surah al-Takathur (No. 102) once, and Surah al-Tawheed repeated twenty-five times. In the third unit, Surah al-Faatehah is recited once, Surah al-Kafirun (No. 109) once, and Surah al-Falaq (No. 113) repeated twenty-five times. In the fourth unit, Surah al-Faatehah is recited once, Surah al-Nasr (No. 110) once, and Surah al-Nas (No. 114) repeated twenty-five times. After the accomplishment of the four units, it is recommended to repeat the following doxological prayer seventy times:

سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ وَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ وَ لا اِلَهَ اِلا اللّٰهُ وَ اللّٰهُ اَكْبَرُ

The following invocation of blessings may be repeated seven times, too:

اللّٰهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ

After that, the following imploration is repeated three times:

اللّٰهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ

After that, one should prostrate and repeat the following three times:

يَا حَيُّ يَا قَيُّومُ يَا ذَا الْجَلالِ وَ الْاِكْرَامِ يَا اللّٰهُ يَا رَحْمَانُ يَا رَحِيمُ يَا اَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَ

Then, one may pray Almighty Allah for granting one’s requests.

If one does all this, he, as well as his property, wife, sons, religion, and worldly affairs, will be saved up to the next year. If he dies during that year, he will be rewarded as martyred.
