21. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from ‘Abd Allah ibn Ja’far from al-Sayyari from Muhammad ibn Bakr from abu al-Jarud from al-Asbagh ibn Nubatah from Amir al-Mu’minin, Ali ibn abu Talib (a.s.) who has said the following: “I swear by the One who sent Muhammad (a.s.) with the truth and honored his family, all supplications for protection is in the Holy Quran. In the Holy Quran there is protection against fire, theft, straying of animals from the owner, lost items, or runaway persons. Whoever wants to know, ask me. The narrator has said that a man then stood up and said, ‘Instruct me in something against fire and drowning’ The Imam said, ‘Read this verse: “The (true) Guardian is certainly Allah Who has revealed the Book and is the Guardian of the righteous ones.” (7:196) and ‘They have not paid due respect to Allah. The whole earth will be gripped in His hands on the Day of Judgment and the heavens will be just like a scroll in His right hand. Allah is by far more Glorious and High to be considered equal to their idols.’ (39:67) Whoever reads them will be safe from burns and drowning. [The man read them and fire broke out in the homes of his neighbors. His house was in the middle but remained unaffected]. Then another man stood up and said, ‘O Amir al-Mu’Minin (a.s.) my horse is unyielding and I am afraid of it.’ The Imam said, ‘Read in his right ear: “. . . all that is in the heavens and the earth have submitted themselves to His will, either by their own free will or by force? To Allah all things do return.” (3:83) [He read the above verse and his horse became subservient]. Another man stood up and said, ‘O Amir al- Mu’Minin, my land is filled with wild beasts. They overwhelm my house to get their prey.’ The Imam said, ‘Read: “A Messenger from your own people has come to you. Your destruction and suffering is extremely distressful to him. He really cares about you and is very compassionate and merciful to the believers.”’ (9:128) (Muhammad), if they turn away from you, say, ‘Allah is sufficient (support) for me. No one deserves to be worshipped except Allah. In Him 1 trust and He is the Owner of the Great Throne.’ (9:129) [This man also was saved from the beasts after reading the Quranic reading]. “Thereafter another man stood up and said, ‘O Amir al- Mu’Minin, in my stomach there is yellow water. Is there any cure for it?’ The Imam said yes, without dirham and dinar, ‘Write verse 255 of Chapter 2 of the Holy Quran on your stomach, then wash and drink it to save it in your stomach, you will be cured by the will of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy.’ [This man also followed the instruction and was cured]. Another man stood up and asked about his straying animal. The Imam said, ‘Read Chapter 36 in two Rak’at (a prayer consisting of two times bowing down on one’s knees) prayer and say, “O guide of the straying, return my straying animal to me.’ [This man also followed the instruction and his animal was returned]. Another man stood up and said, ‘O Amir al-Mu’minin, tell me about a runaway.’ The Imam said, ‘Read: “Or they (the deeds of the unbelievers) are like the darkness of a deep, stormy sea with layers of giant waves, covered by dark clouds. It is darkness upon darkness whereby even if one stretches out his hands, he cannot see them. One can have no light unless Allah gives him light.’” (24:40) [He followed the instruction and his runaway person was found]. Thereafter another man stood up and said, ‘O Amir al-Mu’minin, tell me about theft. Every night they steal my things.’ The Imam said, ‘When going to bed read, “(Muhammad), tell them, ‘It is all the same whether you call Him Allah or the Beneficent. All the good names belong to Him. (Muhammad), do not be very loud or slow in your prayer. Choose a moderate way of praying.’ (17:110) Say, ‘It is only Allah who deserves all praise. . . .’ (17:111) Amir al-Mu’minin, Ali ibn abu Talib (a.s.) has said, ‘If one is in an uninhabited land at night the angels will guard him and devils move away from him upon his reading this: ‘Your Lord is Allah Who established His dominion over the Throne (of the realm) after having created the heavens and the earth in six days. He made the night darken the day, which it pursues at a (considerable) speed and He made the sun and the moon submissive to His command. Is it not He who creates and governs all things? Blessed is Allah, the Cherisher of the Universe.’ (7:54) The narrator has said that a man traveled and stayed at a mined town without reading the above verse of the Holy Quran, Satan overwhelmed him and was holding his face. His (Satan’s) friend told him to wait. It made the man wake up and read the above verse of the Holy Quran. Satan then said to his friend, ‘May Allah humiliate you, now stay here to guard him till morning.’ In the morning he came to Amir al-Mu’minin, Ali ibn abu Talib (a.s.) and informed him of the incident saying, ‘In your words I found cure and truth.’ After sunrise he went to the place and he found a bunch of the hairs of the devil on the ground.’”
IsnādMuhammad ibn Yahya a rapporté d'Abdullah ibn Ja'far, de As-Sayyari, de Muhammad ibn Bakr, d'Abu Al-Jarud, de Asbagh ibn Nubatah, de l'Imam Ali (que la paix soit sur lui)
par Allah qui a envoyé Muhammad avec la vérité et a honoré les membres de sa famille, il a dit : "Il n'y a rien que vous cherchez, que ce soit la protection contre le feu, la noyade, le vol, la perte d'un animal de compagnie, l'égarement, ou le vol d'un bien, sans que cela ne se trouve dans le Coran. Celui qui cherche cela devrait me questionner à ce sujet." Il se leva alors un homme et dit : "Ô Commandeur des croyants, informe-moi sur ce en quoi je dois croire pour me protéger du feu et de la noyade." Il répondit : "Récite ces versets : 'Allah, qui a fait descendre le Livre et qui prend soin des justes, et qui n'ont pas donné à Allah la juste valeur qui Lui est due, jusqu'à Son dire : Gloire à Lui, et qu'ils ne Lui associent rien.' Celui qui les récite est préservé du feu et de la noyade." Un homme les récita et le feu éclata dans les maisons de ses voisins, entourant sa maison, mais il ne fut pas touché. Ensuite, un autre homme se leva et dit : "Ô Commandeur des croyants, mon animal de compagnie m'est devenu difficile à gérer et je crains pour ma vie." Il répondit : "Récite dans son oreille droite : 'À Lui se soumet tout ce qui est dans les cieux et sur la terre, volontairement ou par contrainte, et à Lui ils seront ramenés.' Il le fit et son animal se calma. Un autre homme se leva et dit : "Ô Commandeur des croyants, ma terre est entourée de bêtes sauvages qui menacent mon domicile et je ne peux pas les chasser sans prendre leur proie." Il répondit : "Récite : 'Certes, vous est venu un Messager pris parmi vous, lourd de souffrance pour vous, plein de sollicitude et de miséricorde envers les croyants.' S'ils se détournent, dis : 'Allah me suffit. Il n'y a de divinité que Lui. En Lui je place ma confiance, et Il est le Seigneur du Trône immense.' Il les récita et les bêtes sauvages s'éloignèrent. Puis un autre homme se leva et dit : "Ô Commandeur des croyants, j'ai une maladie dans mon estomac, est-il un remède pour moi?" Il répondit : "Oui, sans argent ni argent, écris sur ton estomac le verset du Trône, lave-le, bois-le et place-le comme protection dans ton estomac, tu seras guéri par la volonté d'Allah." L'homme fit comme il lui avait été dit et fut guéri par la volonté d'Allah. Ensuite, un autre homme se leva et dit : "Ô Commandeur des croyants, informe-moi sur l'égarement." Il répondit : "Récite Yasin dans deux unités de prière et dis : 'Ô Guide des égarés, ramène mon égaré vers moi.' Il le fit et retrouva ce qui était perdu. Puis un autre homme se leva et dit : "Ô Commandeur des croyants, informe-moi sur le vol, car des choses disparaissent de chez moi nuit après nuit." Il lui dit : "Quand tu te couches, dis : 'Invoque Allah ou invoque le Miséricordieux, peu importe celui que tu invoques. Et glorifie-Le avec une grande glorification.' Puis l'Imam Ali (que la paix soit sur lui) ajouta : "Celui qui passe la nuit dans une terre désolée et récite le verset : 'Votre Seigneur est Allah, qui a créé les cieux et la terre en six jours, puis S
