Imam عليه السلام said: “If you stay in al-Madinah for three days, then fast on the first day, Wednesday, and pray on the night of Wednesday at the column of Abu Lubabah. It is the Column of Repentance (Ustuwanah al-Tawbah), to which he tied himself until his pardon was sent down from heaven. Remain by it on Wednesday. Then, on the following night, the night of Thursday, go to the place beside the station of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless him and his family, and remain there for your night and your day. Fast on Thursday. Then, on the night of Friday, go to the column that is beside the station of the blessed Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless him and his family, and his prayer-place. Pray beside it throughout your night and your day, and fast on Friday. If you are able, during these days, not to speak about anything except what is necessary for you, not to leave the mosque except for a need, and not to sleep by night or by day, then do so, for that is among the things in which merit is counted. Then, on Friday, praise Allah سبحانه وتعالى, extol Him سبحانه وتعالى, send blessings upon the Prophet صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless him and his family, and ask for your need. Let the following be among what you say: ‘O almighty Allah سبحانه وتعالى, whatever need I have with You سبحانه وتعالى, whether I have begun to seek it and request it or have not begun, whether I have asked You سبحانه وتعالى for it or have not asked You سبحانه وتعالى for it, I turn to You سبحانه وتعالى through Your Prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم, the Prophet of Mercy, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless him and his family, for the fulfilment of my needs, the small of them and the great.’ For it is fitting that your need will be fulfilled, if Allah سبحانه وتعالى, Exalted is He سبحانه وتعالى, wills.”
