Abu Ali al-Ash’ari has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan from those whom he has mentioned (in his book) who has said the following: “Once I asked Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) to instruct me with something that I should say in the morning and in the evening. The Imam said say, ‘All praise belongs to Allah, who does as He wills, and does not do what anyone else wants. All praise belongs to Allah, as Allah loves to be praised. All praise belongs to Allah, as He deserves.

O Lord, keep me in every good in which You have kept Muhammad and his family and keep me out of every evil from which You have kept out Muhammad and his family. O Lord, grant al-Salat (favors) upon Muhammad and his family.’” رسل كالصحيح - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (2/266))
