Chapter on the Merit of Prayer, and What is Obligatory and Recommended from It

عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلنُّعْمَانِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عُرْوَةَاِ بْنِ أُخْتِ شُعَيْبٍ اَلْعَقَرْقُوفِيِّ عَنْ خَالِهِ شُعَيْبٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ:« مَنْ جَاعَ فَلْيَتَوَضَّأْ وَ يُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ يَا رَبِّ إِنِّي جَائِعٌ فَأَطْعِمْنِي فَإِنَّهُ يُطْعَمُ مِنْ سَاعَتِهِ»
From him, from Al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Al-Nu‘man, who said: Al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Faddal narrated to me from ‘Urwah, the son of the sister of Shu‘ayb Al-‘Aqarqufi, from his uncle Shu‘ayb, who said: Abu Abdillah عليه السلام said: “Whoever feels hunger, let him perform ablution and pray two units of prayer, then say: ‘O Lord, I am hungry, so feed me’. And he will be fed at that very moment.”
