1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Safwan ibn Y ahya from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar from certain individuals of his people from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following
“In three hours of the day and in three hours of the night Allah, the Majestic, the Glorious, glorifies Himself. The first hours of the day begin when the distance of the sun from this side, the East, is equal to that between ‘Asr (the beginning of afternoon prayer), on the West, and the start of the time of the first prayer (prayer at noon time), and the first hours of night which begin with the start of the remaining one third of the night to dawn. “Allah says, ‘I am Allah, Cherisher of the worlds, I am Allah, the Most High, the Most Great, I am Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Wise, I am Allah, the Most Forgiving, the Most Merciful, I am Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful, I am Allah, the Owner of the Day of Judgment, I am Allah, Who has always been and will be, I am Allah, the Creator of the good and bad, I am Allah, the Creator of paradise and fire, I am Allah, the Initiator of all things and to Me it returns, I am Allah, the only One and Self-sufficient, I am Allah, the Knower of the unseen and the seen, I am Allah, the Owner, the Holy, the Peace, the Protector, the Dominant, the Compeller, the One who is Proud, I am Allah, the Creator, the Designer, and the Shape-giver. 1 have all good names; I am Allah, the Great and the Most Lofty. ’ “The narrator has said that Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) then said in his own words, ‘Greatness is His dress. Whoever disputes Him in that, He (Allah) will throw him in fire.’ The Imam then said, ‘Whoever of the believing people prays to Him in these words turning with his heart to Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, He will grant his wish. Even if he is a person of evil fortune, I hope he will change into a person of good fortune.’”
1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
إِنَّ لله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ثَلاثَ سَاعَاتٍ فِي اللَّيْلِ وَثَلاثَ سَاعَاتٍ فِي النَّهَارِ يُمَجِّدُ فِيهِنَّ نَفْسَهُ فَأَوَّلُ سَاعَاتِ النَّهَارِ حِينَ تَكُونُ الشَّمْسُ هَذَا الْجَانِبَ يَعْنِي مِنَ الْمَشْرِقِ مِقْدَارَهَا مِنَ الْعَصْرِ يَعْنِي مِنَ الْمَغْرِبِ إِلَى الصَّلاةِ الأولَى وَأَوَّلُ سَاعَاتِ اللَّيْلِ فِي الثُّلُثِ الْبَاقِي مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِلَى أَنْ يَنْفَجِرَ الصُّبْحُ يَقُولُ إِنِّي أَنَا الله رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ إِنِّي أَنَا الله الْعَلِيُّ الْعَظِيمُ إِنِّي أَنَا الله الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ إِنِّي أَنَا الله الْغَفُورُ الرَّحِيمُ إِنِّي أَنَا الله الرَّحْمَنُ الرَّحِيمُ إِنِّي أَنَا الله مَالِكُ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ إِنِّي أَنَا الله لَمْ أَزَلْ وَلا أَزَالُ إِنِّي أَنَا الله خَالِقُ الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ إِنِّي أَنَا الله خَالِقُ الْجَنَّةِ وَالنَّارِ إِنِّي أَنَا الله بَدِي‏ءُ كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ وَإِلَيَّ يَعُودُ إِنِّي أَنَا الله الْوَاحِدُ الصَّمَدُ إِنِّي أَنَا الله عَالِمُ الْغَيْبِ وَالشَّهَادَةِ إِنِّي أَنَا الله الْمَلِكُ الْقُدُّوسُ السَّلامُ الْمُؤْمِنُ الْمُهَيْمِنُ الْعَزِيزُ الْجَبَّارُ الْمُتَكَبِّرُ إِنِّي أَنَا الله الْخَالِقُ الْبَارِئُ الْمُصَوِّرُ لِيَ الأسْمَاءُ الْحُسْنَى إِنِّي أَنَا الله الْكَبِيرُ الْمُتَعَالِ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) مِنْ عِنْدِهِ وَالْكِبْرِيَاءُ رِدَاؤُهُ فَمَنْ نَازَعَهُ شَيْئاً مِنْ ذَلِكَ أَكَبَّهُ الله فِي النَّارِ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ مُؤْمِنٍ يَدْعُو بِهِنَّ مُقْبِلاً قَلْبُهُ إِلَى الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِلا قَضَى حَاجَتَهُ وَلَوْ كَانَ شَقِيّاً رَجَوْتُ أَنْ يُحَوَّلَ سَعِيداً.
