Spiritual Blindness
Blind in This World will Be Blind in the Next
A blind man came to
the Prophet and said:
"Invoke Allah for me
that he help me.
" He replied: "If
you wish I will delay this, and it would be better for you, and if you wish
I will invoke Allah the Exalted (for you).
" He said: "Then
invoke him."
The Prophet said to him:
idhhab fa tawadda', wa salli
rak`atayn thumma qul --
"Go and make an ablution, pray two rak`at,
then say: "O Allah, I am asking you (as'aluka)
and
turning to you (atawajjahu
ilayka) with your Prophet Muhammad
(bi nabiyyika
Muhammad), the Prophet of mercy;
O Muhammad (ya
Muhammad), I am turning with you to my Lord regarding my present need /
I am asking my Lord with your intercession concerning the return of my sight
(inni atawajjahu
bika ila rabbi fi hajati hadhih -
- another
version has: inni astashfi`u bika `ala rabbi fi raddi basari) so that
He will fulfill my need; O Allah, allow him to intercede (with you) for me (allahumma
shaffi`hu fiyya)."
Dua:
as'aluka
atawajjahu ilayka bi nabiyyika Muhammad, ya Muhammad
inni atawajjahu bika ila rabbi fi hajati hadhih -
-inni astashfi`u bika `ala rabbi fi raddi basari
allahumma shaffi`hu fiyya)
