DUA FOR SAFETY FROM ILLNESS AND AILMENTS

Imam Ali(a.s.) is reported to have said: Put your hand on the ailed organ and repeat the following supplicatory prayer three times:

Allah, Allah, Allah is my Lord indeed.

I do not associate with Him anything.

O Allah, You are the only besought for this and for every terrible thing; so (please) relieve it.

Imam al-Sadiq(a.s.) is reported to have said in this regard: You may put your hand on the ailed organ and say:

In the Name of Allah.

You may then rub the ailed organ with your hand and repeat the following evil-repelling prayer (‘udhah) seven times:

I pray for the protection of Allah’s almightiness,

I pray for the protection of Allah’s omnipotence,

I pray for the protection of Allah’s majesty,

I pray for the protection of Allah’s greatness,

I pray for the protection of Allah’s wholeness,

I pray for the protection of Allah’s Messenger, may Allah’s blessings be upon him and his Household

and I pray for the protection of Allah’s Names

against the evil of what I concern

and the evil of what I fear for myself.
