5ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ قَالَ تَقُولُ فِي آخِرِ رَكْعَةٍ مِنْ صَلاَةِ جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) يَا مَنْ لَبِسَ الْعِزَّ وَالْوَقَارَ يَا مَنْ تَعَطَّفَ بِالْمَجْدِ وَتَكَرَّمَ بِهِ يَا مَنْ لاَ يَنْبَغِي التَّسْبِيحُ إِلاَّ لَهُ يَا مَنْ أَحْصَى كُلَّ شَيْ‏ءٍ عِلْمُهُ يَا ذَا النِّعْمَةِ وَالطَّوْلِ يَا ذَا الْمَنِّ وَالْفَضْلِ يَا ذَا الْقُدْرَةِ وَالْكَرَمِ أَسْأَلُكَ بِمَعَاقِدِ الْعِزِّ مِنْ عَرْشِكَ وَبِمُنْتَهَى الرَّحْمَةِ مِنْ كِتَابِكَ وَبِاسْمِكَ الأعْظَمِ الأعْلَى وَكَلِمَاتِكَ التَّامَّةِ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَأَنْ تَفْعَلَ بِي كَذَا وَكَذَا.

Published English translation

5. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from certain individuals of our people from ibn Mahbub in a marfu‘ manner that the Imam said: “In the last Rak‘at (sajdah of last Rak‘at), in Salah (prayer) of Ja’far, you should say this. ‘O the One, Who has dressed up in majesty and dignity, who is kind with glory and is gracious with glory, You are the One, besides whom no one deserves Tasbih (glorification). (You are) the One whose knowledge has encompassed all things, the bountiful and generous, the One who does favors with additional generosity and the powerful and gracious. I appeal to You through the majestic qualities of Your Throne and the limits of mercy from Your book and through Your great, the most High name and perfect words. Allahumma Salli ‘Ala Muhammad wa ‘Ali Muhammad (O Allah grant Muhammad and his family a compensation worthy of their serving Your cause). Please make my such and such wishes come true.’”
