28ـ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ رِئَابٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ الْفَضْلِ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) إِذَا أَصْبَحْتَ وَأَمْسَيْتَ فَقُلْ عَشْرَ مَرَّاتٍ اللهمَّ مَا أَصْبَحَتْ بِي مِنْ نِعْمَةٍ أَوْ عَافِيَةٍ مِنْ دِينٍ أَوْ دُنْيَا فَمِنْكَ وَحْدَكَ لا شَرِيكَ لَكَ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ وَلَكَ الشُّكْرُ بِهَا عَلَيَّ يَا رَبِّ حَتَّى تَرْضَى وَبَعْدَ الرِّضَا فَإِنَّكَ إِذَا قُلْتَ ذَلِكَ كُنْتَ قَدْ أَدَّيْتَ شُكْرَ مَا أَنْعَمَ الله بِهِ عَلَيْكَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ وَفِي تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةِ.
28. Ibn abu ‘Umayr has narrated from ibn Ri’ab from Isma’il ibn al-Fadl who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام has said, ‘In the morning and evening say ten times: “O Lord, every morning I find myself with a favor and the well-being of the world or the hereafter. All such favors are from You, from You alone, and no one is Your partner. All praise belongs to You and thanks to You for Your favors to me, O Lord, until You are happy with me. Thanks to You even after Your being happy with me.”’ If you say this you have thanked Allah for what He has granted you on that day and on that night.”
