DUA'AAA JAWSHANIS'-S'AGHEER
In the Name of God
the Merciful the Compassionate
Call unto the way of your Lord with wisdom and good exhortation, and reason with them in the best way, Lo! your lord best knows those who go astray from His path, and He knows best those who are rightly guided.

(Qu'ran, 16:125)
This dua is narrated on the authority of the seventh Imam Musa al-Kazim, peace be upon him, and it is said that it is a very effective supplication, having all the merits of al-Jawshan al-Kabir.
In the Name of Allah, the All-merciful, the All-compassionate My God, many an enemy drew up the sword of hostility against me honed the dagger's edge, sharpened the arrow's points, made ready deadly poisons, levelled his bow at me, and, keeping an eye on me, harboured evil thoughts to force me to swallow, against my will, the deadly bitter poison. Thou came to know that I am too weak to bear hardships and too exhausted to withstand misfortunes, and |

[Tho] took notice of my shortcoming that I cannot confront the enemy who had planned to attack me, and perceived my isolation amid the multitude of gathering enemies, sitting in ditches, ready to pounce upon me, while I gave no thought to sitting in ambush and retaliating. So with Thy might, Thou came to stand by me, and Thy help made me strong and disappointed him in spite of the larger number [of his forces], by rendering his weapons unserviceable. And Thou gave me the upper hand over him by catching him in the very trap he laid for me, and threw him into the abyss he dug for me and gave no hand to his grudging deed, and did not allow him assuage the fury of his anger. Biting his thumb, he turned back on his heels, and his comrades, ashamed, dispersed in haste. So praise be to Thee, O Lord, in [Thy] invulnerable Omnipotence and prudent Forbearance. Bless Muhammad and the family of Muhammad, and |

let me be among those who thank Thee for Thy bounties and remember Thee for Thy favours. My God, many a disobedient tyrant has tried treacherously to oppress me, has laid traps to catch me, was continuously spying on me, and, like a beast of prey who lies in wait for his prey, has tried to surprise me, whereas in public he received me with open arms and a welcoming smile on his face, as if innocent. So when Thou took notices of his clandestine trickery and foul play and the fact that in spite of professing the same faith he was divising schemes to injure me, then Thou contemptuously caught hold of him and threw him down headlong, [Thou] completely destroying him; after which he found himself in the ditch he had dug for me, |

smeared with the dust below his feet-poverty and a disease overtook him. Thus Thou rewarded him in kind by making the stones and arrows he hurled at me rebound upon him and by putting his own rope around his neck. Shame and disappointment came upon him-he suffered disgrace and dishonour, his pride and arrogance gave way to humility, his power turned into helplessness, and finally, at the last moment when he was sure to overwhelm me, he fell into his own trap and was caught and bound with the rope made for me in the days of his authority. In fact it was me who would have suffered likewise if Thou, O my Lord, had not come to my rescue with Thy mercy. So praise be to Thee, O Lord, in [Thy] invulnerable Omnipotence and prudent Forbearance. |
