Chapter on the Prayer of Tasbih and Other Prayers

وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَلْحَمِيدِ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ:« يُقْرَأُ فِي اَلْأُولَى إِذَا زُلْزِلَتْ وَ فِي اَلثَّانِيَةِ وَ اَلْعَادِيَاتِ وَ فِي اَلثَّالِثَةِ« إِذٰا جٰاءَ نَصْرُ اَللّٰهِ» وَ فِي اَلرَّابِعَةِ« قُلْ هُوَ اَللّٰهُ أَحَدٌ»» قُلْتُ فَمَا ثَوَابُهَا قَالَ« لَوْ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلُ رَمْلِ عَالِجٍ ذُنُوباً غَفَرَ اَللَّهُ لَهُ ثُمَّ نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ لَكَ وَ لِأَصْحَابِكَ»
And in the narration of Ibrahim ibn Abd al-Hamid from Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام, peace be upon him: Imam al-Kadhim عليه السلام said: “In the first rak’ah, ‘Idha zulzilati’ (Surah al-Zalzalah) is recited; in the second, recite ‘al-Adiyat’ (Surah Al-'Adiyat); in the third, recite ‘Idha jaa nasrullah’ (Surah al-Nasr); and in the fourth, recite ‘Qul Huwa Allahu Ahad’ (Surah al-Ikhlas).” I asked: “What is its reward?” Imam عليه السلام said: “If his sins were as numerous as the sand of Alij, Allah سبحانه وتعالى would forgive them for him.” Then Imam عليه السلام looked at me and said: “This is only for you and your companions.” (meaning our Shia)
