وَ وَعَدَهُمْ أَنْ يُسَلِّمَ لَهُمُ الْأَرْضَ الْمُبَارَكَةَ...
وَ وَعَدَهُمْ أَنْ يُسَلِّمَ لَهُمُ الْأَرْضَ الْمُبَارَكَةَ وَ الْحَرَمَ الْآمِنَ وَ أَنْ يُنَزِّلَ لَهُمُ الْبَيْتَ الْمَعْمُورَ وَ يُظْهِرَ لَهُمُ السَّقْفَ الْمَرْفُوعَ وَ يُرِيحَهُمْ مِنْ عَدُوِّهِمْ وَ الْأَرْضِ الَّتِي يُبَدِّلُهَا اللَّهُ مِنَ السَّلَامِ وَ يُسَلِّمُ مَا فِيهَا لَهُمْ لَا شِيَةَ فِيهَا And He -azwj Promised them that He -azwj would Submit the Blessed earth to them, and the ‘الْحَرَمَ الْآمِنَ’ Just Al-Harrum, and that He -azwj would Bring down the Oft-Frequented House (Bayt Al-Mamour) to them, and He -azwj would Manifest the Raised Ceiling to them, and Given them respite from their enemies, and the earth Which Allah -azwj would Change for them from the peace and safety for whatever it therein for them there being no blemish in it’.
قَالَ لَا خُصُومَةَ فِيهَا لِعَدُوِّهِمْ وَ أَنْ يَكُونَ لَهُمْ فِيهَا مَا يُحِبُّونَ وَ أَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) عَلَى جَمِيعِ الْأَئِمَّةِ وَ شِيعَتِهِمُ الْمِيثَاقَ بِذَلِكَ وَ إِنَّمَا السَّلَامُ عَلَيْهِ تَذْكِرَةُ نَفْسِ الْمِيثَاقِ وَ تَجْدِيدٌ لَهُ عَلَى اللَّهِ لَعَلَّهُ أَنْ يُعَجِّلَهُ جَلَّ وَ عَزَّ وَ يُعَجِّلَ السَّلَامَ لَكُمْ بِجَمِيعِ مَا فِيهِ He -asws said: ‘There will be no disputes therein of their enemies, and there would happen to be for them in it what they would be loving.
And Rasool-Allah -saww took the Covenant upon the entirety of the Imams -asws and their -asws Shias with that. And rather, the greetings upon him -saww is a reminder to the self of the Covenant and the renewal of it upon Allah -azwj , perhaps He -azwj the Majestic and Mighty might Hasten the peace for you all with the entirety of whatever is in it’.
[27] Respite in the Supplications: اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي عَبْدُكَ وَ أَعْبُدُكَ وَ أُقَدِّسُكَ وَ أُصَلِّي لَكَ وَ أَسْجُدُ لَكَ وَ أُمَرِّغُ صَفْحَتَيْ فِي التُّرَابِ تَذَلُّلًا لَكَ كَيْ تَرْحَمَ مَخَافَتِي مِنْكَ وَ تَغْفِرَ السَّالِفَ مِنْ ذَنْبِي وَ عِصْيَانِي لَكَ رَبِّ وَا شِقْوَتِي إِنْ كُنْتَ لِلنَّارِ خَلَقْتَنِي رَبِّ وَا ذُلِّي إِنْ كُنْتَ لِلِانْتِقَامِ أَمْهَلْتَنِي (In a supplication, Rasool Allah -saww says): O Allah -azwj !
I am Your -azwj servant and I worship You -azwj , and extol Your -azwj Holiness, and I pray Salat to You -azwj , and I prostrate to You -azwj , and I roll my cheeks in the soil humbling to You ‑azwj so You -azwj will Mercy my fear from You -azwj and Forgive my past sins, and my acts of disobedience to You -azwj ! Lord -azwj , O my misery if You -azwj had Created me for the Hellfire!
