Remembrance 5 from Chapter 78

Lā ilāha illa-llāhu-l-Karīmu-l-‘Aẓīm, subḥānah, tabāraka-llāhu Rabbu-l-‘Arshi-l-‘Aẓīm, al-ḥamdu li-llāhi Rabbi-l-‘ālamīn.

We relate in the books of an-Nasā’ī and Ibn as-Sunnī, from ‘Abdullāh ibn Ja‘far who reported that ‘Alī said: “The Messenger of Allah taught me these words and told me to say them whenever a problem or calamity befell me: There is no god but Allah, the Noble, the Tremendous; Glory be to Him. Blessed is Allah, Lord of the Tremendous Throne. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds.” ‘Abdullāh ibn Ja‘far used to say this and then blow it over the feverishly sick (maw‘ūk). He also used to teach it to his daughters who were married to people not of their kindred (mughtaribah). ^[5].
