Last Friday of Ramadan – Jum’a-tul-wida’

Administrator on September 3rd, 2010

Sayyid Ibn Tawus and Shaykh al-Saduq have both narrated the following on the authority of Jabir ibn `Abdullah al-Ansari:

I visited the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) on the last Friday of Ramazan. As he saw me, he said, “Jabir: This is the last Friday of Ramadan. You should thus bid it farewell by pryaing in the following manner:اللّهُمّ لا تَجْعَلهُ آخِرَ العَهْدِ مِنْ صِيَامِنَا إِيَّاهُ

 allahumma la taj`alhu akhira al`ahdi min siyamina iyyahu

 فَاجْعَلْنِي مَرْحُوماً وَلا تَجْعَلْنِي مَحْرُوماًk فَإِنْ جَعَلْتَهُ.

 fa-in ja`altahu faj`alny marhuman wa la taj`alny mahruman

“O Allah:  do not make it the last of our fasting in this month;

but if You decide so, then make me enjoy (Your) Mmercy and do not make me deprived (of it).”

Indeed, anyone who says this supplication will be granted one of the two good things; either live long enough to be see the next Ramadhan so that he can agin dip in the occean of mecry of God, or attain the forgiveness and mercy of teh Lord of the Heavens & Earth.
