Dua of Imam Husain (as) for the Day of Arafah The supplicatory prayer of Imam al-husayn (`a), the Chief of Martyrs, on the `Arafat Day is one of the famous prayers. Bishr and Bashir, the sons of Ghalib al-asadi, narrated that they, once, accompanied Imam al-husayn (`a) at the `Arafat Night when he left his tent with submission and reverence. He walked slowly until he, accompanied by a group of his household, sons, and servants, stopped at the left side of Mount `Arafat and turned his face towards the Holy Ka`bah. He then raised his hands (for supplication) to the level of his face, just like a poor man begging food, and said: ث غ ٱ ٱ ش ؽ ٱ ش ؽ ٤ In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. ا ف ػ ٠ ؾ ذ آ ؾ ذ O Allah, (please do) send blessings to Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad, ا ؾ ذ ٱ ز ١ ٤ ظ و ن بئ د اك غ Praise be to Allah Whose determination cannot be repelled by anything, ال ؼ ي بئ ب غ Whose gifts cannot be stopped by anything,
