Original Arabic text

1ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي نَجْرَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ الْعَبْدِيِّ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ مَنْ قَالَ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لا إِلَهَ إِلا الله وَحْدَهُ لا شَرِيكَ لَهُ إِلَهاً وَاحِداً أَحَداً صَمَداً لَمْ يَتَّخِذْ صَاحِبَةً وَلا وَلَداً كَتَبَ الله لَهُ خَمْسَةً وَأَرْبَعِينَ أَلْفَ حَسَنَةٍ وَمَحَا عَنْهُ خَمْسَةً وَأَرْبَعِينَ أَلْفَ سَيِّئَةٍ وَرَفَعَ لَهُ خَمْسَةً وَأَرْبَعِينَ أَلْفَ دَرَجَةٍ وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى وَكُنَّ لَهُ حِرْزاً فِي يَوْمِهِ مِنَ السُّلْطَانِ وَالشَّيْطَانِ وَلَمْ تُحِطْ بِهِ كَبِيرَةٌ مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ.

Published English translation

1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad and Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn abu Najran from ‘Abd al-‘Aziz al-‘Abdi from ‘Umar ibn Yazid from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Whoever says ten times everyday, ‘I testify that no one deserves to be worshipped except Allah alone, Who has no partner. One Lord, the only Self-sufficient, Who has not taken any companion nor any children,’ Allah will write down for him forty-five thousand good deeds, will cancel forty-five thousand of his evil deeds and will raise for him forty-five thousand degrees.’” “In another Hadith it is stated, ‘The above expression will serve him as stronghold against rulers and Satan and no major sin will engulf him.’”
