THE RITES OF THE REST OF Sha‘bān
Imam al-Rida (عليه السلام) is reported as saying: If one observes fasting on the last three days of Sha‘bān and connects it with the obligatory fasting of Ramaḍān, Almighty Allah will decide for him as having observed fasting for two consecutive months.
Abu’l-Salt al-Harawi has narrated that when he visited Imam al-Rida (عليه السلام) on the last Friday of Sha’ban, the Imam said to him:
Abu’l-Salt, the days of Sha‘bān have almost passed. This is the last Friday. You should thus settle what you have missed in this month by working harder in the rest of it. You may supplicate God, implore for His forgiveness, recite the Holy Qur’an, and repent to Him from your sins so that you receive the month of Ramaḍān with pure sincerity to Him. You must fulfil all the trusts that you are liable to settle, do not bear malice against any of your brethren-in-faith, you must give up any sin that you commit. Fear Almighty Allah and trust in Him in secret and openly, for ‘If anyone puts his trust in Allah, sufficient is (Allah) for him. For Allah will surely accomplish his purpose. Verily, for all things has Allah appointed a due proportion. 65/3’
In the remaining days of Sha‘bān, it is highly recommended to recite the following supplication frequently for Almighty Allah rescues many people from hellfire on account of the sanctity of this month:
اَللّٰهُمَّ اِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ غَفَرْتَ لَنَا فِيمَا مَضَى مِنْ شَعْبَانَ فَاغْفِرْ لَنَا فِيمَا بَقِيَ مِنْهُ

بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ كَلِمَةِ الْمُعْتَصِمِينَ وَ مَقَالَةِ الْمُتَحَرِّزِينَ وَ اَعُوذُ بِاللّٰهِ تَعَالَى مِنْ جَوْرِ الْجَائِرِينَ وَ كَيْدِ الْحَاسِدِينَ وَ بَغْيِ الظَّالِمِينَ وَ اَحْمَدُهُ فَوْقَ حَمْدِ الْحَامِدِينَ اَللّٰهُمَّ اَنْتَ الْوَاحِدُ بِلَا شَرِيكٍ وَ الْمَلِكُ بِلَا تَمْلِيكٍ لَاتُضَادُّ فِي حُكْمِكَ وَ لَاتُنَازَعُ فِي مُلْكِكَ اَسْاَلُكَ اَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ عَبْدِكَ وَ رَسُولِكَ وَ اَنْ تُوزِعَنِي مِنْ شُكْرِ نُعْمَاكَ مَا تَبْلُغُ بِي غَايَةَ رِضَاكَ وَ اَنْ تُعِينَنِي عَلَى طَاعَتِكَ وَ لُزُومِ عِبَادَتِكَ وَ اسْتِحْقَاقِ مَثُوبَتِكَ بِلُطْفِ عِنَايَتِكَ وَ تَرْحَمَنِي بِصَدِّي [وَ صُدَّنِي] عَنْ مَعَاصِيكَ مَا اَحْيَيْتَنِي وَ تُوَفِّقَنِي لِمَا يَنْفَعُنِي مَا اَبْقَيْتَنِي وَ اَنْ تَشْرَحَ بِكِتَابِكَ صَدْرِي وَ تَحُطَّ بِتِلَاوَتِهِ وِزْرِي وَ تَمْنَحَنِي السَّلَامَةَ فِي دِينِي وَ نَفْسِي وَ لَاتُوحِشَ بِي اَهْلَ اُنْسِي وَ تُتِمَّ اِحْسَانَكَ فِيمَا بَقِيَ مِنْ عُمْرِي كَمَا اَحْسَنْتَ فِيمَا مَضَى مِنْهُ يَا اَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِينَIn the Name of Allah, the All-Beneficent, the All-Merciful.
“In the name of Allah” the word of those who hold fast to Him, the speech of those who seek His protection. I seek refuge in Allah, high exalted is He, from the injustice of the unjust, the trickery of the enviers, and the oppression of the wrongdoers, and I praise Him beyond the praise of the praisers!O Allah, You are the One without partner, and the King without having been made sovereign; no one opposes You in Your decree and no one contests You in Your kingdom.
I beseech You to bless Mu¦ammad and his Household, Your servant and Your messenger, inspire me with a thanksgiving for Your favors that You take to the utmost limit of Your good pleasure, help me to obey You, hold fast to worshiping You, and deserve Your reward, through the gentleness of Your solicitude have mercy upon me, bar me from acts of disobedience to You as long as You keep me alive, give me success in what profits me as long as You spare me, expand my breast through Your Book, lessen my burden through its recitation bestow upon me health in my religion and my soul, estrange not my intimates from me, and complete Your beneficence in what is left of my lifetime, just as You have shown beneficence in that of it which has passed!
O Most Merciful of all those who show mercy!

اِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَ اِنَّا اِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَThen say the following:
اُصِبْنَا بِكَ يَا حَبِيبَ قُلُوبِنَا فَمَا اَعْظَمَ الْمُصِيبَةَ بِكَ حَيْثُ انْقَطَعَ عَنَّا الْوَحْيُ وَ حَيْثُ فَقَدْنَاكَ فَاِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَ اِنَّا اِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ يَا سَيِّدَنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللّٰهِ صَلَوَاتُ اللّٰهِ عَلَيْكَ وَ عَلَى آلِ بَيْتِكَ [الطَّيِّبِينَ] الطَّاهِرِينَ هَذَا يَوْمُ السَّبْتِ وَ هُوَ يَوْمُكَ وَ اَنَا فِيهِ ضَيْفُكَ وَ جَارُكَ فَاَضِفْنِي وَ اَجِرْنِي فَاِنَّكَ كَرِيمٌ تُحِبُّ الضِّيَافَةَ وَ مَأْمُورٌ بِالْاِجَارَةِ فَاَضِفْنِي وَ اَحْسِنْ ضِيَافَتِي وَ اَجِرْنَا وَ اَحْسِنْ اِجَارَتَنَا بِمَنْزِلَةِ اللّٰهِ عِنْدَكَ وَ عِنْدَ آلِ بَيْتِكَ وَ بِمَنْزِلَتِهِمْ عِنْدَهُ وَ بِمَا اسْتَوْدَعَكُمْ مِنْ عِلْمِهِ فَاِنَّهُ اَكْرَمُ الْاَكْرَمِينَAs for myself, ‘Abbas al-Qummi the author of this book, whenever I address this form of Ziyarah to the Holy Prophet (صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم) I begin with the following form that Imam al-Rida (عليه السلام) taught to al-Bizanti. In this respect, it has been authentically narrated that when Abu-Basir asked him about the most proper form of visiting the Holy Prophet’s tomb and invoking Allah’s salutations upon him after the prayer, Imam Alī ibn Mūsā ar-Riḍā (عليه السلام) answered that he may say:
اَلسَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللّٰهِ وَ رَحْمَةُ اللّٰهِ وَ بَرَكَاتُهُ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ يَا مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ يَا خِيَرَةَ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ يَا حَبِيبَ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ يَا صِفْوَةَ اللّٰهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَلَيْكَ يَا اَمِينَ اللّٰهِ اَشْهَدُ اَنَّكَ رَسُولُ اللّٰهِ وَ اَشْهَدُ اَنَّكَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللّٰهِ وَ اَشْهَدُ اَنَّكَ قَدْ نَصَحْتَ لِاُمَّتِكَ وَ جَاهَدْتَ فِي سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ وَ عَبَدْتَهُ حَتَّى اَتَاكَ الْيَقِينُ فَجَزَاكَ اللَّهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللّٰهِ اَفْضَلَ مَا جَزَى نَبِيّاً عَنْ اُمَّتِهِ اَللّٰهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ اَفْضَلَ مَا صَلَّيْتَ عَلَى اِبْرَاهِيمَ وَ آلِ اِبْرَاهِيمَ اِنَّكَ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ.
