DUA-E-NUDBA

Translated and Edited by: Aim

IN THE NAME OF GOD

 INTRODUCTION

(Say: My lord would not care for you were it not for your prayer.” (Qur’an/25/77“
One of the true and authentic feeling of mankind which has an innate root in the
nature of man is paying attention to Dua and spiritual relation with the unseen world
.and the origin of creation
This is a matter, which even the famous psychologists have not neglected it. Although
the necessity of Dua is present in the nature of man but it manifests itself more during
calamities and misfortunes from materialistic forces. Human being, without any will
and option turns himself towards the All-Powerful Allah with all his might and energy,
And he asks his help and protection. Dua is the weapon of a Mo’min. It lightens the
pressures of misfortunes and difficulties an above all, it showers upon the human
.(being the boundless mercy of the All-Truth (Allah
Like other matters, even in the method of Dua, human being is in need of and
reasoned and rational guidance so that this natural feeling which is necessary for the
soul does not mislead him. And it does not become a means and pretest for the
cheaters and imposters. With the correct method of its usage, the thirst of the
.conscience of man gets quenched and finds his intended destination
t:2
When the radiating sun of Islam glittered the Earth and the curtains of superstition
ware ripped off, its rich resources altered all aspects of individual, social, spiritual,
material, and moral affairs of human life. Dua was also amongst the things, which was
covered by this transformation. Its program is so laid that can be understood as
.worthy of the affairs of every program human being and the true worshipper of Allah
Islammic Duas and Zisra’t other than their sacred, holy and divine aspects are the big
and comprehensive treasures full of humanistic concepts. Invocating them like
attending a training course leaves a very deep and good impression on our
personality, the reason being that their interesting meaningful texts are narrated
directly from our prophet (S.A.) and his infallible progeny in which they have thought
various lessons about the sublime learning of Monotheism, Resurrection,
Prophethood Wilayat, moral sense, laws and ethics. Indeed, the school of Dua one is
one of the high schools which is having a great effect in the development of human
thinking, spiritual and social growth, of course if it is correctly used. Till the Muslims do
not pass this school, their Islamic personality will not become perfect. The school is
day and night open for everybody and the repetition of its lessons will always make
.the person ascend from one stage to another
One of these treasures which, always the believers and those anxious for the
reappearance of the righteous and universal Government of Hazrat Baqi-at-allah
(May Allah hasten his Reappearance), have set it as their slogan is the glorious Dua-e-
Nudba. They renew their allegiance with their Master during fixed occasions and
.establish emotional gatherings for reading it
t:3
Nudba (Iamentation) and wailing for visiting his Holiness, the coming to an end of his
Occultation, pray for hastening his reappearance and expressing regret upon the
prevalent turbulent and oppressive condition of, today’ world (the Period of
Occultation) is a lesson which the Shias have learnt from their Imams (A .S.) and their
.behaviour is a pattern for their partisans
Sadir-e-seirafi, a distinguished companion of Imam Jafar-e-Sadiq (AS.) says that
along with three other companions, they visited Imam (A.S.). They saw Imam (A.S) in a
very sad and sorrowful condition sitting on the ground. Like a mother who has lost her
dear son and with a painful heart, Imam (A.S.) was crying, wailing, meaning and
:saying
My master, your occultation has snatched away sleep from my eyes, has taken my“
.concentration and has deprived tranquility from my heart
My master, your occultation has surrounded with a tragic suffering due to which I can
never find sympathy and consolation. Due to the loss of friends one after the other,
.our gathering is breaking
Calamities, hardships, difficulties and disasters have so much pained my heart that I
do no feel the tears of my eyes and the yelling and crying of my heart. Yet other
severe and unbearable sufferings are imagined that one more difficult and fragile
”.than the previous ones
:Sadir says
Calamity struck us and our heart became full of sadness and sorrow for Imam (A.S.).“
We presumed that an unpleasant event has made Imam (A.S.) - this mountain of
”patience and forbearance in such a lamenting and mournful condition
:We said
.O Son of the best mankind. May Allah not make you cry“
t:4
 ”?For what circumstances are you weeping in such a manner
:His holiness heaved a sad sigh from his afflicted heart and said
This morning, when I was looking at “the book of Jafr”, the book of knowledge of“
various predicts, until Qiyamat, which has been assigned and made exclusive to
Hazrat Mohammad (S.A) and his successors (A.S.). It contains the birth, occultation,
delay in reapearance, longevity Hazrat Mahdi (A.S) sufferings of believers during
occultation, doubts and uncertainties which arise in their hearts due to the
prolongation of Occultation, a majority of them leave aside Islam and our wilaiat and
do not mind about religion. Due to thinking on these things grief and sadness has
.”…overpowered me
(Raf: Kamaluddin, pg. 352-357, Ghaibat-e-Tusi, pg. 1o4-l08)
Therefore, with considering the behaviour of Imam (A.S.) regarding the of Hazrat
Mahdi (A.S.), we should also become sad and depressed; and express our wish and
interest in his reappearance by seeking shelter towards Allah and reciting Dua,
bearing in mind that if He (Allah) wishes, He can rectify the Occultation of Imam (AS.)
.in one night itself
Dua-e-Nudba is one of the most important and famous authentic Duas of Shia. Its
stability in text, vocabulary and meaningful subjects increase he credibility of its
document. This Dua has been narrated by the great Sayyed, the late Razi-ud-Din Ali
Ibn-e-Taoos who was from amongst the great Shia scholars of the seventh century.
He has narrated in his great hooks of ‘Iqbal’ pg. 295-299 and the seventh chapter of
‘Misbah-uz-Zair’ Before him, the great sheikh, Mohammad Ibn-e-Jafar-e-Mashadi
Haeri who was amongst the great Shia scholars of the sixth century. He has narrated
it

t:5
in his book of ‘Mataar’ Dua number 107. Prior to these two, Qutb-e-Rawandi who was
also amongst the great shia scholars of the fifth century has written this Dua in his
book of ‘Mazaar’. And before all these three persons, the great Shaikh, Mohammad
Ibn-e-Ali Ibn-e-Abi Qirra who also was amongst the great Shia scholars of the fifth
century has brought in his book. This book was used by the later scholars. He narrates
it from the great and honorable Shaikh, Mohammad Ibne-e-Hussain-e-Bazoofari,
one of the former learned teacher from whom shaikh Mufid was narrating. Bazoofari
in his own chain of narration does not quote its narrators due to its fame and great
reputation, he has narrated the Dua from Imam Zaman (AS.). He has declared its
recitation as a Mostahab Dua on four Idds; Jumah, Fitr, Qurban and Ghedeer. Allame
Majilisi (May Allah be satisfied with him) also has narrated this Dua in his book of
“Bihar-ul-Anwar” -and “Zaad-ul-Maad” from Sayyed Ibn-e-Ta’oos from the book of
Mazaar-e-Mashadi, from Ibn-e-Abu Qirra, from Mohammad Ibn-e-Hussain
.Basoofari. He testifies to the credibility of its document
Therefore, it is necessary that on Friday mornings which is considered as one of the
four Idds and the time for the recitation of this great Dua, and during the other
mentioned days, in a mass and bewail, with concentrating our mind, asking
forgiveness and reciting Salawat, we wash away our sins and remove the obstacles
which has stopped the granting of our Duas. Then with a full attention, weeping and
moaning state, we call Imam (AS.) in the same way as sadir has narrated it from our
sixth Imam, Hazat Sadiq (AS.). We cry and recite Nudbah upon the Occultation sad
being far away from Imam (AS.). We request Allah to hasten his reappearance and
ends the corruption, persecution and

t:6
injustice which is reigning in this world due to the absence of Imam (AS.). May the
Almighty Allah has mercy upon our Nudbas and moanings. He may have mercy upon a
weeping from amongst the weeping and will remove the chastisement of Occultation
from amongst us. Thus, He may give us the grate and favour of the presence of Imam
.(AS.) once more
.With His Grace and Benevolence May Allah desire so

The argument is that it had been the practice of Allah Himself to appoint and - 4
nominate the successors of every prophet for the preservation of His teachings and
therefore He must have appointed the successors of Mohammad and could not have
left their appointment in the hands of an electorate, as the Holy Qur’an says, “you will
never find any alteration in the practice of Allah.” (Holy Qur’an: 33/62; 48/23; 35/43). This
