Merits of al-K£fah city
Be it known to you that al-K£fah city is one of the four cities chosen by Almighty
Allah exclusively. It is narrated that the word §£r-s¢n¢n (Holy Qur'¡n, 95/2) mentioned
in the Holy Qur'¡n is an indication of this city. According to another narration, this
city is the sanctuary of Almighty Allah, the Holy Prophet (¥), and Imam Àl¢ (‘a), and
to give one dirham as alms in this city is equal in rewarding to giving one hundred
dirhams at other places, and to offer a two-unit prayer there is equal in rewarding to
offering a hundred-unit prayer at other places.
Merits of masjid al-K£fah
To mention all the merits of Masjid al-K£fah (the K£fah Mosque) cannot be covered
in this book, because they are too many to be contained by one book. The least to
mention in this respect is that this honorable mosque is one of the four mosques that
are worthy of being visited so that the merits of such visit may be attained. It is also
one of the four places where a traveler is free to perform the obligatory prayers either
in the complete form (itm¡m) or in the shortened form (qa¥r). The reward of
performing one obligatory prayer at Masjid al-K£fah is equal to the reward of going on
one acceptable ¦ajj and equal to the reward of performing one thousand prayers at
other places.
In Masjid al-K£fah, according to narrations, all Prophets offered prayers, and the
Awaited Imam—peace be upon him—will also offer prayer therein. In this connection,
a ¦ad¢th reads that one thousand Prophets and one thousand successors of Prophets
offered prayers in Masjid al-K£fah. Moreover, some narrations may hint that this
mosque is preferred in merits to the Holy Mosque in Jerusalem (al-masjid al-aq¥¡).
Ibn Qawlawayh has reported Imam Mu¦ammad al-B¡qir (‘a) as saying, “If people
were to realize the favors that they may attain when they visit Masjid al-K£fah, they
should certainly travel to it from remote countries… One obligatory prayer in this
mosque is equal in reward to (the reward of) one time of admitted ¦ajj, and to offer a
supererogatory prayer in this mosque is equal in reward to (the reward of) one
admitted ùmrah.”
However, according to another narration, the reward of one obligatory prayer and
one supererogatory prayer that are performed in Masjid al-K£fah is equal to the
reward of one ¦ajj and one ùmrah practiced with the Holy Prophet (¥).
Shaykh al-Kulayn¢, as well as other scholars, has reported on the authority of our
master reporters that Imam Ja`far al-¯¡diq (‘a) asked H¡r£n ibn Kh¡rijah, “What is
the distance between your house and Masjid al-K£fah? Is it one mile?”
“No,” answered H¡r£n, “It is less than that.”
The Imam (‘a) asked, “Do you then perform all your prayers there?”
“No, in fact” answered H¡r£n.
The Imam (‘a) commented, “Had I been present in the precinct of that mosque, I
would have never missed any prayer that I can perform there. Do you know the
merits of that place? All Prophets and virtuous saints offered prayers in Masjid alK£fah, including the Holy Prophet Mu¦ammad (¥). When he was taken to the heavens,
Archangel Gabriel said to him, ‘Mu¦ammad, do you know where you are now? You are
now opposite to the mosque of k£f¡n.’ The Holy Prophet (¥) thus asked permission
from his Lord to visit the mosque and offer a two-unit prayer. He was thus permitted.
Verily, the right side of this mosque is a garden of Paradise, the middle of it is a
garden of Paradise, and the back of it is also a garden of Paradise. To perform an
obligatory prayer there is equal in reward to performing one thousand prayers (at
other places). To offer a supererogatory prayer therein is equal in reward to offering
five hundred prayers. To sit there without reciting or saying any devotional statement
is considered worship. If people were to realize the merits of visiting this place, they
would certainly come to it, even crawling.”
According to another narration, the reward of one obligatory prayer that is
performed in Masjid al-K£fah is equal to the reward of going on ¦ajj, and the reward
of one supererogatory prayer that is offered there is equal to the reward of one
ùmrah.
At the end of the previously mentioned seventh untimed form of ziy¡rah of Imam
Àl¢ (‘a), I have also referred to some merits of Masjid al-K£fah.
Finally, in the word of some narrations, the right side of this mosque is more
favorable than its left side.
devotional Acts at Masjid al-K£fah
As is mentioned in the book of Mi¥b¡¦ al-Z¡'ir and other books, the recommended
devotional acts at Masjid al-K£fah are as follows:
You may begin with the following words when you enter the city of al-K£fah:
In the Name of Allah (I
begin),
bismi all¡hi
in Allah (I trust),
wa bill¡hi
on the way of Allah (I
proceed),
and the course of Allah’s
Messenger,
peace be upon him and
his Household, (I
follow).
O Allah, (please do)
enable me to reside
blessedly
and You are the best of
those who enable to
reside.

You may then walk to the fourth column of the mosque, which is situated next to
b¡b al-anm¡§ and opposite to the fifth column. This column is also called is§iw¡nat
ibr¡h¢m (the column of Prophet Abraham). You may then offer a four-unit prayer. In
the first two units, you may recite S£rah al-F¡ti¦ah and S£rah al-Taw¦¢d. In the other
two units, you may recite S£rah al-F¡ti¦ah and S£rah al-Qadr (No. 97). When you
finish, you may say tasb¢¦ al-zahr¡' litany and then say the following words:
Peace be upon the
righteous, orthodox
servants of Allah
from whom Allah has
removed filth and
purified them a thorough
purification.
He also made them
Prophets and
Messengers
and set them as
arguments against all the
created beings.
Peace be upon the
Messengers
and all praise be to Allah
the Lord of the worlds.
This is the arrangement
of the Mighty, Knowing
Lord.

devotional Acts in the Seat of Judgment
and the Place of the Washtub
The seat of judgment (dakkat al-qa¤¡’) was a shop-like structure inside Masjid alK£fah in which there was a bench that was used by Imam Àl¢ (‘a) for judging. Next
to this place, there was a short column on which the following holy verse was written:
“Surely, Allah enjoins the doing of justice
and the doing of good to others and the
giving to the kindred, and He forbids
indecency and evil and rebellion; He
admonishes you that you may be
mindful.”

The place of the washtub (bayt al-§ast) is the place where one of the miracles of
Imam Àl¢ (‘a) was shown:
While an unmarried girl was swimming in a pool, a leech could penetrate into her
body to settle in her womb. This leech fed on the blood of that girl and thus grew up.
Hence, the girl’s belly began to grow bigger and bigger that her brothers though that
she was illegally pregnant. As they intended to kill their sister, they first provided the
case before Imam Àl¢ (‘a) to decide about her. The Imam (‘a) ordered that a thick
curtain should be erected in one of the sides of the mosque (Masjid al-K£fah) behind
which the girl would sit. The Imam (‘a) then asked a famous midwife in al-K£fah city
to check the girl. The answer of the midwife came as follows: “O Am¢r al-Mu'min¢n,
this girl is pregnant. She carries a fetus in her womb.”
However, the Imam (‘a) ordered them to bring a washtub made of clay and he
asked them to make that girl sit there. When the leech felt the stench of the clay, it
sneaked out from where it had entered and it fell in the washtub. Thus, the innocence
of the girl was proved.
According to other narrations, Imam Àl¢ (‘a) extended his hand and brought a
piece of ice from the mountains of Syria and put it in the washtub, causing the leech
to come out.
Order of devotional Acts in Masjid al-K£fah
Be it known to you that the order of doing the recommended acts in Masjid alK£fah according to the opinion of the majority of scholars is that the acts to be done
in the center of the mosque come directly after the acts at the fourth column. Hence,
the acts of the seat of judgment and the place of washtub should be the last of all,
which means that they are done after the accomplishment of the acts at the seat of
Imam al-¯¡diq (‘a) (dakkat al-¥¡diq).
In this book, I imitate the order followed by Sayyid Ibn ±¡w£s, in his book of
Mi¥b¡¦ al-Z¡'ir, Àll¡mah al-Majlis¢, in his book of Bi¦¡r al-Anw¡r, and Shaykh Kha¤ir,
in his book of al-Maz¡r.
In conclusion, one who desires to follow the opinion of the majority of scholars
may do the acts at the seat of judgment (dakkat al-qa¤¡') and the place of washtub
(bayt al-§ast) after accomplishing all the other acts of Masjid al-K£fah.
Back to the acts of dakkat al-qa¤¡' and bayt al-§ast, after finishing from the fourth
column, you may walk to dakkat al-qa¤¡' and offer there a two-unit prayer, reciting in
each unit S£rah al-F¡ti¦ah and any other S£rah you like to recite. After
accomplishment, you may say the famous Tasb¢¦ al-Zahr¡' litany and then say the
following supplicatory words:
O He Who possesses me,
He Who endows me with
possessions,
and He Who
encompasses me with
enormous bounties
albeit that I do not
deserve them.

It is narrated that Imam al-¯¡diq (‘a) offered a two-unit prayer in this place; the
place of the washtub (bayt al-§ast).
Prayers and Supplications in the Center of the Mosque
At the center of Masjid al-K£fah, you may offer a two-unit prayer, reciting in the
first unit S£rah al-F¡ti¦ah and S£rah al-Taw¦¢d, and in the second unit S£rah alF¡ti¦ah and S£rah al-K¡fir£n (No. 109). After you finish the prayer and say the Tasb¢¦
statements, you may say the following:
O Allah, You are the
Peace.
You are the source of
peace.
To You does peace
belong.
Your abode is the abode
of peace.
So, our Lord, greet us
with peace from You.

It is worth mentioning that the center of Masjid al-K£fah is also called dakkat almi`r¡j (Seat of the Ascension to the Heavens). Apparently, when the Holy Prophet
(¥), at the night of his Ascension, asked permission from Almighty Allah to visit this
mosque, he offered his prayer at this place. Previously, I have mentioned the
narration involving this incident.
Devotional Acts at the Seventh Column
The seventh column is the place where Almighty Allah guided Prophet Adam to ask
for repentance. Hence, you may walk to this place, stop there, face the kiblah
direction, and say the following words:
In the Name of Allah (I
begin), in Allah (I trust),
and the course of Allah’s
Messenger,
peace be upon him and
his Household, (I
follow).
There is no god but
Allah.
Mu¦ammad is Allah’s
messenger.

Be it known to you that the narrations carrying the merits of the seventh column in
Masjid al-K£fah are numerous. For instance, al-Kulayn¢ has reported through an
authoritative chain of authority that Imam Àl¢ Am¢r al-Mu'min¢n (‘a) used to offer
prayers next to the seventh column and the distance between him and this column
was so close that one could hardly pass from there.
According to another validly reported narration, each night sixty thousand angels
descend from the heavens to offer prayer at the seventh column and none of them
returns until the Resurrection Day.
According to another validly reported tradition, Imam al-¯¡diq (à) has said, “The
seventh column is the standing-place of Prophet Abraham (‘a).”
In his book of al-K¡f¢, Shaykh al-Kulayn¢ has also narrated that Ab£-Ism¡`¢l alSarr¡j reported that Mu`¡wiyah ibn Wahab took him from the arm to the seventh
column and said that Ab£-°amzah al-Thum¡l¢ had taken him from the arm to this
seventh column and said that al-A¥bagh ibn Nub¡tah had taken him from the arm to
this seventh column and said, “This is the place where Imam Àl¢ Am¢r al-Mu'min¢n
(‘a) used to be. Imam al-°asan (‘a) used to offer prayers at the fifth column, but
when Imam Àl¢ (‘a) would be absent, al-°asan (‘a) would take his place at the
seventh column, which is at b¡b kindah (the Gate of Kindah).”
In conclusion, the narrations reporting the merits of the seventh column at Masjid
al-K£fah are numerous; but because my course in this book is to sum up as much as
possible, I will mention no more.
devotional Acts at the Fifth Column
The fifth column in al-K£fah Mosque is one of the peculiar places; therefore, it is
advised not to miss offering a prayer there and not to miss supplicating Almighty
Allah for granting the personal requests. According to an authoritative narration,
Prophet Abraham (‘a) offered a prayer at this place.
As other narrations have mentioned that Prophet Abraham (‘a) offered prayers at
other places in this mosque, this does not bring about contradiction between such
narrations; rather, it means that Prophet Abraham (‘a) offered prayers at different
places in this mosque.
According to another authoritative narration, Imam al-¯¡diq (‘a) has said, “The
fifth column is the standing-place of Archangel Gabriel (‘a).
It is also understood from an aforementioned narration that Imam al-°asan (‘a)
used to offer prayers at this place.
In conclusion, narrations have confirmed that the seventh and the fifth columns in
Masjid al-K£fah are the most blessed places.
Sayyid Ibn ±¡w£s says: At the fifth column, you may offer a two-unit prayer
reciting any S£rah you want after S£rah al-F¡ti¦ah. When you finish the prayer and
say the Tasb¢¦ statements, you may say the following supplicatory prayer:
O Allah, I beseech You in
the name of all Your
Names:
all¡humma inn¢
as'aluka bijam¢ì
asm¡'ika kullih¡
those which we know
and those which we do
not.

And I beseech You in the
name of Your Great, Allgreat,
wa as'aluka bismika

which if one beseeches
You by it, You will
respond to him,
if one begs you by it, You
will give him,
if one asks You for
victory by it, You will
give him victory,
if one asks for Your
forgiveness by it, You
will forgive him,
if one seeks Your aid by
it, You will aid him,
if one solicits You by it
for sustenance, You will
grant him sustenance,
if one seeks Your help by
it, You will help him,

It is narrated that Imam al-¯¡diq (‘a) instructed one of his companions to offer a
two-unit prayer at the fifth column, for it is the place where Prophet Abraham (‘a)
used to offer prayers. The Imam (‘a) then taught him to say there, while facing the
kiblah direction, the aforementioned form of ziy¡rah that comprises the following
statements:
Peace be upon our father
Adam and our mother
Eve…
ab¢n¡ alssal¡mu àl¡

Devotional Acts at the Third Column
You may then walk to the seat of Imam Àl¢ ibn al-°usayn Zayn al-`ªbid¢n (‘a)
that is situated near the third column from the direction of b¡b kindah (the Gate of
Kindah). Opposite to this place from the kiblah direction is the seat of Imam Àl¢ Am¢r
al-Mu'min¢n (‘a) and from the west side is b¡b kindah, which is now blocked. It has
been also said that one who wants to offer prayers there must stand five arms far
from the column, since the actual place of the seat of Imam Zayn al-`ªbid¢n (‘a) was
there. Anyhow, you may offer there a two-unit prayer reciting S£rah al-F¡ti¦ah and
any other S£rah you like. When you finish the prayer and say the Tasb¢¦ statements,
you may say the following:
In the Name of Allah;
the All-beneficent, the
All-merciful.
O Allah, my sins have
been growing
and nothing can stand
for them except the hope
in Your pardon

Some inauthoritative books have mentioned that the following instruction of Imam
al-¯¡diq (‘a) to one of his companions may be carried out in this place. As a matter of
fact, this instruction is not dedicated to this place; rather, to the courtyard of Masjid
al-K£fah. However, this instruction is as follows:
It is narrated that Imam al-¯¡diq (‘a) said to one of his companions: If you pass
by the grand mosque of al-K£fah in the early morning, you may offer there a fourunit prayer and then say the following supplicatory prayer:
O Allah, if I have

Immediately after their reference to the acts to be advisably done at the fourth
column, Shaykh al-Shah¢d and Mu¦ammad ibn al-Mashhad¢ have included this act
with the other acts that are done at the courtyard of the mosque. They have added
that one may offer a four-unit prayer in the first two units of which one may recite
S£rah al-F¡ti¦ah and S£rah al-Taw¦¢d and the last two units one may recite S£rah alF¡ti¦ah and the S£rah al-Qadr. After accomplishment, one may say the Tasb¢¦ alZahr¡' litany… etc.
According to an authoritative narration, Ab£-°amzah al-Thum¡l¢ reported that he
was one day sitting in the grand mosque of al-K£fah when a man entered from b¡b
kindah. His face was indeed the prettiest, he smelt the nicest perfume, and he put on
the cleanest dress. He also put a turban, a shirt, and a jubbah (a type of long open
cloth coat with wide sleeves). As he was also wearing Arabian slippers, he took them
off when he entered the mosque. He then stopped near the sixth column of the
mosque, raised his hands to the level of his ears and uttered a takb¢r statement (i.e.
saying all¡hu-akbar) that was so reverent that my entire body shivered. He then
offered a four-unit prayer with excellent genuflection and prostration. At
accomplishment, he uttered the supplicatory prayer that begins with this statement:
‫ﺪ‬
ْ ‫ﺖ ﹶﻗ‬
ْ ‫ﺇﹺﻟٰﻬﹺﻲ ﹺﺇ‬
O my God, if I have
disobeyed You, I have
indeed obeyed You in the
nearest thing to You…

…‫ﻚ‬
َ ‫ﺷﻴَﺎ ِﺀ ﹺﺇﹶﻟ ْﻴ‬
‫ﭐﻻ ﹾ‬
When he reached at the statement:
O All-generous! O Allgenerous! O Allgenerous!
y¡ kar¢mu y¡ kar¢mu y¡
kar¢mu
‫ﻢ‬
he prostrated himself and repeated this word as much as one breath may take. He
then said while prostrating:
O He Who has full power
over granting the
requests of the
beseechers…
y¡ man yaqdiru àl¡
¦aw¡'iji alss¡'il¢na…
‫ﺞ‬

َ ٰ‫ﺪ ُﺭ َﻋ ﹶﻠﻰ‬
ِ ‫ﻦ َﻳ ﹾﻘ‬
…‫ﻦ‬
َ ‫ﭐﻟﺴﱠﺎِﺋﻠِﻴ‬
He then repeated the following word seventy times:
O my Master.
y¡ sayyid¢
‫ﺳﻴﱢﺪِﻱ‬
َ ‫ﻳَﺎ‬
When he raised his head, I looked at him closely and could conclude that he was
Zayn al-`ªbid¢n (‘a). I thus kissed his hand and asked him what had caused him to
come to the mosque. The Imam (‘a) answered, “As you have seen.” (i.e. I came here
to offer prayers the al-K£fah Mosque)… etc.
At the end of the seventh form of the untimed ziy¡rah of Imam Àl¢ (‘a), we have
mentioned this story but with a little difference due to the difference of the reports.
We have also mentioned that the Imam (à) suggested to Ab£-°amzah al-Thum¡l¢
that he would accompany him to visiting the holy tomb of Imam Àl¢ (‘a) and the man
agreed… etc.
devotional Acts at B¡b al-Faraj
The b¡b al-faraj (The Gate of Relief) is also called maq¡m n£¦ (the standing-place
of Prophet Noah). When you accomplish the acts at the third column, you may walk to
the Seat of Am¢r al-Mu'min¢n (‘a), which is the bench located next to the gate of the
mosque from the side of Imam Àl¢’s house. You may offer there a four-unit prayer,
reciting S£rah al-F¡ti¦ah and any other S£rahs you want. When you finish the prayer
and say the Tasb¢¦ statements, you may say the following:
O Allah, (please) send
blessings upon
Mu¦ammad and the
Household of
Mu¦ammad
and grant my request. O
Allah!
O He Whose beseecher is
never disappointed
and Whose gifts are
inexhaustible!

the Tasb¢¦ statements, you may say the following supplicatory prayer:

You may then mention your needs.
It is worth mentioning to repeat what I have already mentioned about the order of
the acts at Masjid al-K£fah:
Be it known to you that the order of doing the recommended acts in Masjid alK£fah according to the opinion of the majority and according to the book of al-Maz¡r
al-Qad¢m is that the acts to be done in the center of the mosque come directly after
the acts at the fourth column. Hence, the acts of the seat of judgment and the place
of washtub should be the last of all, which means that they are done after the
accomplishment of the acts at the seat of Imam al-¯¡diq (‘a) (dakkat al-¥¡diq).
In this book, I imitate the order followed by Sayyid Ibn ±¡w£s, in his book of
Mi¥b¡¦ al-Z¡'ir, Àll¡mah al-Majlis¢, in his book of Bi¦¡r al-Anw¡r, and Shaykh Kha¤ir,
in his book of al-Maz¡r.
In conclusion, one who desires to follow the opinion of the majority may do the
acts at the seat of judgments (dakkat al-qa¤¡') and the place of washtub (bayt al§ast) after accomplishing all the other acts at Masjid al-K£fah.
Prayer for Settling the Needs at al-K£fah Mosque
Imam al-¯¡diq (‘a) is reported to have said that one who offers the following
prayer at Masjid al-K£fah will have all his requests settled: One may offer a two-unit
prayer reciting at each unit S£rahs al-F¡ti¦ah, al-Falaq (No. 113), al-N¡s (No. 114),
al-Taw¦¢d (No. 112), al-K¡fir£n (No. 109), al-Na¥r (No. 110), al-Qadr (No. 97), and
al-A`l¡ (No. 87). After accomplishment, one may say the Tasb¢¦ al-Zahr¡' litany and
then beseech Almighty Allah for settling his needs.
This order of S£rahs is corresponding with the order adopted by Sayyid Ibn ±¡w£s
in his book of al-Mi¥b¡¦, while according to the narration of Shaykh al-±£s¢ in his
book of al-Am¡l¢, S£rah al-Qadr follows S£rah al-A`l¡. Possibly, the commitment to
the order of the S£rahs is not obligatory; therefore, it is acceptable to recite these
seven S£rahs in any order as long as S£rah al-F¡ti¦ah precedes the others. Finally,
Almighty Allah knows best.
Ziy¡rah of Muslim ibn Àq¢l
When you accomplish all the acts at Masjid al-K£fah, you may walk to the tomb of
Muslim ibn Àq¢l—may Allah sanctify his soul, light up his tomb, and be pleased to
him. When you stop at the tomb, you may say the following:
All praise be to Allah:
the Lord and the evident
Truth.
al¦amdu lill¡hi almaliki
al¦aqqi almub¢ni
All the tyrannical
oppressors are
subservient to His
almightiness.

Ziy¡rah of H¡ni’ ibn Ùrwah
When you stop at the tomb of H¡ni' ibn Ùrwah, you may greet the Holy Prophet (¥) and then say the
following:
Peace of Allah the All-great and
His blessings

Ùrwah.
Peace be upon you, O righteous
