Sahifa-e-Kamila of Imam Sajjad (a.s.)

The "Sahifa" as we know it today is a collection of 54 Supplications, I 4 other supplications and 15 Munajat.

These "Duas" can be put into two groups: The Duas that can be read on any occasion (E.g. Supplication for ones Parents, Supplication in asking for Pardon) and those which are for special occasions (E.g. Supplications for day of Arafat, The day of Idd). These "Duas" are full ofknowledge on Islam. The subjects listed here are but a few examples of what is contained in these Duas:

How to address Allah

Merits of the Prophet (S.A.W.W) and his family

What are the main parts of Iman (Faith)

What behavior is expected from Muslims

Through these Duas, the Imam taught the standards and principles for Muslims who would then be able to save themselves from "Corrupted Islam" that was being taught by the Bani Ummayya.
