20. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from certain individuals of his people from Husayn ibn ‘Ammarah from Husayn ibn abu Sa’id al-Makari and Jahm ibn abu Jahmah from abu Ja’far - a man from al-Kufa who was know by his being father of someone - who has said the following: “Once I asked Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) to instruct me with a supplication with which I can pray to Allah. The Imam agreed and told me to say, ‘O the One who is my hope in all that is good, O the One whose anger is not feared (in certain cases) in every mistake, O the One who grants a great deal for very little, O the One who gives to whoever asks Him for help out of compassion and kindness, O the One who gives to those who do not even ask for help and do not even know Him, grant al-Salat (favors) upon Muhammad and his family, bestow upon me for my plea all the good of the world and the hereafter; what You have given me already is not just a little and increase for me from Your vast generosity, O the Magnanimous One.’”
