Original Arabic text

22ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ قَالَ كَانَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) يَقُولُ فِي سُجُودِهِ أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ نَارٍ حَرُّهَا لاَ يُطْفَأُ وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ نَارٍ جَدِيدُهَا لاَ يَبْلَى وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ نَارٍ عَطْشَانُهَا لاَ يَرْوَى وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ نَارٍ مَسْلُوبُهَا لاَ يُكْسَى.

Published English translation

22. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ya’qub ibn Yazid from Ziyad ibn Marwan who has said the following: “Abu al-Hassan (a.s.), in prostration position would say, ‘O Lord, I seek Your protection against the fire of incessant heat. I seek Your protection against the fire which remains ever-new, I seek Your protection against the fire in which no one’s thirst is quenched; I seek Your protection against the fire in which the naked is never dressed up.’”
