A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ‘Amr ibn ‘Uthman and Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father all from ‘Abd Allah ibn al-Mughirah from ibn Muskan from abu Basir Layth al-Muradi from ‘Abd al-Karim ibn ‘Utbah who has said the following: “I heard Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) saying, ‘Whoever (sincerely) says ten times before sunrise and before sunset, ‘No one deserves to be worshipped except Allah alone Who has no partner, the Kingdom is His, all praise belongs to Him, He gives life, causes death, causes death and gives life, He is living and will never die, in His hands is the good and He has power over all things,’ this will be the remedy and expiation for his sins on that day.’” صحيح - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (12/202))
