33ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنِ الْعَلاءِ بْنِ كَامِلٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) إِنَّ مِنْ الدُّعَاءِ مَا يَنْبَغِي لِصَاحِبِهِ إِذَا نَسِيَهُ أَنْ يَقْضِيَهُ يَقُولُ بَعْدَ الْغَدَاةِ لا إِلَهَ إِلا الله وَحْدَهُ لا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ وَيُمِيتُ وَيُحْيِي وَهُوَ حَيٌّ لا يَمُوتُ بِيَدِهِ الْخَيْرُ كُلُّهُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ قَدِيرٌ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ وَيَقُولُ أَعُوذُ بِالله السَّمِيعِ الْعَلِيمِ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ فَإِذَا نَسِيَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْئاً كَانَ عَلَيْهِ قَضَاؤُهُ.

Published English translation

33. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Isma’Il ibn Mehran from a man from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar from al-‘Ala’ ibn Kamil who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) has said, ‘Of the prayers are such that if one forgets one should make up for it. One should say after the morning prayer, “No one deserves to be worshipped except Allah, alone Who has no partner, to Him belongs the Kingdom and all praise, He gives life, causes death, causes death, gives life, He is living and does not die, in His hand is all good and He has power over all things,” ten times. One should then say, ‘I seek protection with Allah, the Hearing, the Omniscient,’ ten times and if one forgets any of this, he owes to make it up for them.’”
