Abdullah Ibin Sinan said that Abu Abdullah (PBUH) said: you have suspicions and you will not find the knowledge or the guiding leader “Imam”. No one will survive except those who recite the supplication of the drowning (Al-Ghareeq). I said “how is the supplication of the drowning?” He said: “you say: oh Allah, oh merciful, oh compassionate, oh the one who can change the minds, keep me on your religion. I said: “oh the one who can change minds and sight keep me on your religion.” He (PBUH) said: “Allah is the one who changes the minds and sights. However, you say like I say: oh the one who can change the minds, keep me on your religion” The question is: does the drowning supplication include the word “sights” or not?
Answer
A. In the name of Allah: as in the question, the supplication does not include the word “sights”. It seems that Ibin Sinan felt what is revealed by the holy Quran in terms of interpreting the greatness of Allah and His power and control on humans, especially on the Day of Judgment, as mentioned in the holy verse: “they fear the day on which hearts and sights”. The Imam (PBUH) was not explaining Allah’s greatness and mighty, but he intended to teach that believer regarding faith and holding fast on faith. Additionally, you should commit to the words of the supplication that is narrated about the Imams (PBUH) because each word is full of implications which has an occasion and effect. We are ignorant of most of these implications. We do not know how to be righteous slaves to Allah, but we seek Allah’s mercy through the supplications. Only the infallible Imam (PBUH) knows that. Allah is the All-Knowing and Guiding.
