أَللّٰهُمَّ اكْشِفْ هٰذِهِ الغُمَّةَ عَنْ هٰذِهِ الأُمَّةِ بِحُضُورِهِ وَ عَجِّلْ لَنَا ظُهُورَهُ إِنَّـهُمْ يَرَوْنَهُ بَعِيداً وَ نَرَاهُ قَرِيباً بِرَحْـمَتِكَ يَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمينَ O’ Allah remove this grief from this Ummah by his presence and hasten his reappearance for “verily they (the hypocrites) regard it to be distant and we see it very near” (al-Qur`an 70:6-7) by Your mercy, O’ the Most Merciful.” One should then strike one’s right hand on the right thigh three times, and each time recites the following: أَلْعَجَلَ أَلْعَجَلَ يَا مَوْلاَيَ يَا صَاحِبَ الزَّمَانِ “Hasten, Hasten, O’ my Master O’ Master of the time.” It has been narrated that after Prophet Ibrahim saw the celestial lights of the fourteen Infallibles, he said to Allah: إِلٌـهِي وَ سَيِّدِي أَرَى عِدَّةَ أَنْوَارٍ حَوْلَهُمْ لاَ يُحْصِي عِدَّتَهُمْ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ.

قَالَ يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ هٌؤُلاَءِ شِيعَتُهُمْ وَ
