12. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from m Mahziyar who has that narrated to h Imams abu la’ far al-Shami saying that narrated to him a man in al- Sham (Damascus) called Hilqamu ibn abu Hilqamu who said the following: “Once I went in the presence of abu Ibrahim (a.s.). I said, ‘May Allah keep my soul in service for your cause, instruct me with a supplication of universal form for this world and hereafter but very short one.’ The Imam said, ‘After the morning-prayer until sunrise say, “Glory belongs to Allah, the Great and I praise Him. I plead before Allah for forgiveness and I beg of His generosity. ’ “Hilqamu has said, ‘I (financially) was the worst off person in my family. I received an inheritance from a man whom I did not think was related to me and I had no knowledge, but today I am the most comfortable person among my people and this is only because of what my master, the virtuous servant (of Allah) instructed me with.’”
