In the Name of Allah -azwj ...
In the Name of Allah -azwj , there is no might nor power except with Allah -azwj . Musa said, What you have brought is spells. God will assuredly bring it to naught. God sets not right the work of those who do corruption (10:81-2). So the truth came to pass, and false was proved what they were doing.
So they were vanquished there, and they turned about, humbled (7:118-119).” [2] مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَى الرَّبَعِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ غَالِبٍ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ ظَرِيفٍ عَنِ الْأَصْبَغِ بْنِ نُبَاتَةَ السُّلَمِيِّ عَنْ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع: قَالَ الْأَصْبَغُ أَخَذْتُ هَذِهِ الْعُوذَةَ مِنْهُ ع وَ قَالَ لِي يَا أَصْبَغُ هَذِهِ عُوذَةُ السِّحْرِ وَ الْخَوْفِ مِنَ السُّلْطَانِ تَقُولُهَا سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ Muhammad Ibn Musa Al-Rabi narrated from Muhammad Ibn Mahbub from ‘Abd Allah Ibn Ghalib from Sa’d Ibn Zarif from al-Asbagh Ibn Nubata from Al-Asbagh reports from Amir-ul-Momineen -asws : ‘I took this invocation from him.
He -asws said to me: “O Asbagh, this is an invocation for spells and fear (Al-khauf) of the ruler (al-sultan).
Recite it seven times: بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ بِاللَّهِ سَنَشُدُّ عَضُدَكَ بِأَخِيكَ وَ نَجْعَلُ لَكُما سُلْطاناً فَلا يَصِلُونَ إِلَيْكُما بِآياتِنا أَنْتُما وَ مَنِ اتَّبَعَكُمَا الْغالِبُونَ ‘In the Name of Allah -azwj , and by Allah -azwj , We will strengthen your arm with your brother, and We will give you both an authority, so that they shall not reach you; (go) with Our signs; you two and those who follow you shall be uppermost.
(28:35).’ وَ تَقُولُ فِي وَجْهِ الْمَاءِ إِذَا فَرَغْتَ مِنْ صَلَاةِ اللَّيْلِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَبْدَأَ بِصَلَاةِ النَّهَارِ سَبْعَ مَرَّاتٍ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَضُرُّكَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى. Recite it seven times over water when you have completed the night prayer (salat al-layl) and before you begin the morning prayer (salat al-nahar).
