Al-Tasbihat al-Arba'a: Difference between revisions

In [[daily prayers]], al-Tasbihat al-Arba'a is recited in rak'as 3 and 4 instead of [[Sura al-Hamd]] and another [[Sura]]. According to the [[Fatwa]]s of some Shiite [[marja']]s, al-Tasbihat al-Arba'a should be recited three times in rak'as 3 and 4 of the prayer, but according to others, it suffices to recite it only one time.

In addition to the daily prayers, al-Tasbihat al-Arba'a should be recited in [[Ja'far al-Tayyar Prayer]] after the recitation of the Sura (300 times), in the common prayers of the nights of the [[month of Ramadan]] (7 times), and in the practices of [[Jumada II]] after the common prayer (70 times).

In the volume 90 of his ''[[Bihar al-anwar]]'', [['Allama Majlisi]] has devoted a chapter to the meaning and the virtues of al-Tasbihat al-Arba'a. the recitation of al-Tasbihat al-Arba'a is recommended for closeness to God, preventing catastrophes in this world{{enote|Imam al-Sadiq (a) said: "one day the [[Prophet (s)]] told his [[Sahaba]]: if you collect all your clothes and dishes and put on top of each other, will they reach the sky? They said: no, O the messenger of God! He said: when you are done with saying your prayer, recite "subhan Allah, wa l-hamd li-llah, wa la ilah ila Allah, wa Allah akbar" 30 times, because these words prevent destructions, drowning, burning, falling in the water well, being eaten by predatory animals, any bad death, and any trouble and catastrophe for the person on that day, and these words are follow-ups.}}, and the prayers being responded by God{{enote|[[Imam al-Sadiq (a)]] said: "if one recites "subhan Allah, wa l-hamd il-llah, wa la ilah illa Allah, wa Allah Akbar" 40 times in the follow-ups of his obligatory prayers before on is comfortable seated and then ask God something, God will give him whatever he wants".}}
