Ziyarat-e-Jamia Kabeere

      I bear witness that there is no god save Allah
      Alone without having any associate
      And I bear witness that Muhammad—blessings of Allah be upon him—is His
      servant and Messenger

      When you enter and catch sight of the tomb, you should halt again and
      repeat saying Allahu Akbar—Allah is the Greatest—thirty times. Very serene
      and venerable, you should walk a few yards with slow steps and then halt
      anew and repeating saying Allahu Akbar thirty times. As you come within
      reach of the tomb, you should repeat saying Allahu Akbar forty times so
      that you would have said it one hundred times. After that, you should

      that He may cause it to prevail over all religions

      Allah preserved you guiltless and free from error
      kept you safe disorderliness
      freed you from dirt

      and cleansed you with a thorough cleansing
      So, you have glorified His majesty
      Have declared great His magnificence
      Have venerated His glory
      Have perpetuated mentioning Him
      Have consolidated His covenant
      Have made firm your pledge of obedience to Him
      Have advised people for His sake privately and publicly
      Have called unto His way through words of wisdom and fair admonition

      exercised self-control and faced untold hardships in His cause
      established prayers
      gave prescribed alms
      advised to do that which is lawful
      warned not to do that which is unlawful
      strived in the way of Allah in letter and spirit
      until you made known every aspect of His true Message
      rendered clear the obligations
      and defined the boundaries laid down by Him
      communicated and propagated His constitution
      demonstrated the rule of conduct approved by Him
      and went ahead resolutely to accomplish that which is dear to Him
      surrendered to His will
      proved true the Messengers sent by Him before you
      therefore whoso turns away from you misses the aim (and deviates from the
      right path)
      whoso closely adhere to you reaches the destination
      whoso fails short of that which is as it ought to be in your case compare
      and contrast to lower in grade destroys himself
      Verily truth is with you amid you in you and it always directs itself unto
      you
      you deserve it as it stays permanently with you
      the inheritance of Prophethood is with you
      you are the ultimate destination to which the people will have to come
back
      to give an account of themselves before you
      it is your privilege to separate evil from good in clear words

      whoso separates himself from you goes astray

      whoso takes refuge with you saves himself
      blessed is he who becomes aware of your truthfulness
      he who is watched over by you finds the right path
      whoso follows you shall dwell in the Paradise
      whoso turns against you shall rot in Hell
      he who says no to you in fact renounces the faith
      he who makes war against you is as bad as a polytheist
      he who forsakes you shall find himself in the lowest tier of the burning
      fire
      I know for sure that certainly you are like what is said above
      and shall continue to be so in future
      your souls, light and form are made from the same clay
      They are thoroughly pure and infallible altogether
      Allah created you in the form of light
      then kept you closely attached with His Throne
      until you were sent down in this world as a favor to us
      allowed you to pronounce and praise His name aloud in the Houses of Allah
      made our sending blessings on you and being loyal to you as signs of the
      legitimacy of our birth
      and the purity of our souls
      And the refinement our manners
      And His forgiving our sins
      We thus have become among those who believe undoubtedly in your
      (excellent) virtues
      and by becoming aware of your true status we have been distinguished
      Allah made you reach the noblest position of glory
      the highest station nearest to Allah
      and the loftiest status of the Messengers
      where none can ever reach you
      nor can anyone surpass you
      nor can anyone ever precede you
      No can anyone look forward to reaching your positions
      even the favorite Angels went for it
      nor the commissioned Prophets
      nor a friend nor a martyr
      nor a scholar nor an ignorant
      nor an inferior nor a superior
      nor a pious faithful
      nor a wicked sinner
      nor an obstinate tyrant
      nor a devilish rebel
      nor any other being had ever been there

      in which you believe
      I renounce your enemies and whatever you renounce

      and of the deviation of him whoever oppose you

      I am fully aware of your rights and privileges
      I recognize your superiority over others
      I carry and preserve your knowledge
      I take refuge under your protective shelter

      Presence, absence
      and in the first of you and the last of you
      I entrust to you the total charge of everything concerning me
      I gladly consent to that which you think is good for me
      from the bottom of my heart I surrender to you
      your opinion is my opinion
      I am prepared and ready to stand up for you
      till Allah the Supreme gives a new life to His Religion through you
      brings you back again in His ‘Days’
      Manifest you to set up His fair and just rule
      you take root in and take possession of His earth the world
      so I am with you, with you, not other than you
      I have full faith in you
      I love and cherish the last of you just as I love and cherish the first of
      you
      I turn to the Almighty Allah disconnecting all links with your enemies
      from Jibt and Taghoot
      and the devils and their followers
      who took liberties with you
      the renegades who suppressed your rights
      the turncoats who ran away from your guardianship
      the swindlers who usurped your succession
      the unbelievers who hesitated to accept you as true
      the deserters who turned against you
      and from every affinity apart from you
      every allegiance other than unto you
      from the leadership which directs to the Fire
      May Allah keep intact my love and attachment with you for ever so far I am
      alive
      and make me adhere to your creed
      find obedience unto you convenient
      obtain your intercession
      be among your fortunate disciples
      Who hold fast to your traditions
      And make me follow in your footsteps
      And track your Path
      abide by your guidance
      to be raised in your group on the Day of Judgement
      brought back during your reappearance
      called upon to help you in your administration
      honoured to live in your safe and sound supervision
      right there in the middle of your 'days'
      delighted and thrilled by seeing you in person
      My father, mother, children, possessions and myself are at your disposal
      whoso desires nearness to Allah in fact makes a beginning with you
      whoso professes the Unity of God in fact takes after you
      whoso moves towards Him has to turn to you
      O my masters I cannot count and mention your merits
      I am unable to come up to the height where your true appreciation can be
      enjoyed
      and your real class can be determined
      You are the light of the virtuous
      The guides of the pious ones
      The claims of the Omnipotent (Lord)
      Allah had created you in the first place
      and then disclosed to you His plan of creation
      on account of you He sent down abundant and far-spread rain
      because of you the sky prevents itself from falling down over the earth
      unless He permits
      due to you He drives away troubles and dismisses hardships
      with you is that with which His Messengers came down
      And with which His Angels descended
      and to your forefather,
      -------
      Note:  If it is the tomb of Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib is the visited, you
      should say instead,

      "And to your cousin"
      -------
      the Truthful Spirit was sent
      Allah has given you that which He has not given to any one in the whole
      universe
      all the highborn hang their heads before your noble lineage
      every valiant lord submits to you in your obedience
      every type of heroism is dwarfed before your completeness and perfection
      everything humbles itself in front of you
      your light lights up the earth
      those who love and cherish you attain their end
      and conduct themselves to the Paradise
      and those who forsake your friendship earn displeasure of the
      All-compassionate
      My father, mother, myself, my children and possessions are at your
disposal
      Although people make mention of you
      your names are called along with other names
      your figures appeared among other humans
      your souls rest with other souls
      your beings existed side by side with other beings
      your traditions are cited with other traditions
      your resting places are seen amidst others
      but most gracious are your names
      most generous and merciful are your lives
      superlative is your nature and disposition
      befitting is your station
      dependable is your covenant
      true is your promise
      your words give light
      your administration is just and fair
      Piety is your will
      your deeds are good
      doing good is your manner of living
      generosity is your habit
      fair dealing, conformity to reality and helping others are in your nature
      your words are final and decisive
      your opinion is based upon knowledge, temperance and forethought
      if goodness is mentioned, you are its beginning
      And its origin and branch and core
      And its resting place and its ultimate
      My father, mother and myself are at your disposal
      How shall I describe the beauty and goodness of your merits?
      How shall I define the grace and decorum you displayed in the hour of test
      and trial?
      It is on account of you that Allah pulls us out of the depth of
degradation
      sets us free from the clutches of hardships
      takes us to safety from the precipice of annihilation and from failing
      down into the Hell
      My father, mother and myself are at your disposal
      Because of our friendship with you Allah taught us the laws of our
religion
      put in order that which had been spoiled and corrupted in our world
      by being loyal to you the Word has been completed
      and the Grace has become great
      And the discord has turned into togetherness
      And only is by our loyalty to you the obligatory obedience (to Allah)
      accepted
      And only is the obligatory adoration yours
      And so are the highest ranks
      And so is the Praised Standing
      And so is the renowned station in Almighty Allah’s view
      And topmost office
      And the supreme rank
      And the admitted intercession
      O our Lord, we believe in that which Thou has sent down and follow the
      Messenger; so write our names among those who bear witness
      Our Lord! Cause not our hearts to stray after Thou hast guided us, and
      bestow upon us mercy from Thy Presence. Lo! Thou, only Thou, art the
      Bestower.
      Glory be to our Lord for in fact the promise of our Lord immediately takes
      effect
      O trusted representative of Allah
      the barriers of wrongdoings separating me from Allah can not be removed
      save by attaining your satisfaction
      therefore in the name of the divine authority delegated to you
      the administration of the human society entrusted to you
      and joining obedience to Him to the obedience to you
      I implore to you to pardon my sins
      And to intercede for me
      For I obey you
      He who obeys you in fact obeys Allah
      he who disobeys you in fact disobeys Allah
      he who loves you in fact loves Allah
      he who hates you in fact hates Allah
      O Allah, had I known interceders that are closer to You than Muhammad and
      his Household, the virtuous and pious Imams, I would have chosen to
      intercede for me before You
      So I beseech You by their Right that You have made obligatory upon us to
      follow
      To include me with the group of those who recognize their Right and them
      And with the assembly of those on whom You will have mercy on account of
      their (Muhammad and his Household) intercession
      Verily, You are the All-merciful
      Blessings of Allah be upon Muhammad and his infallible Household.
      And His thorough peace be upon them
      Allah is Sufficient for us! Most Excellent is He in Whom we trust!
