In the name of Allah, vow something within your means to ʿAbdullah al-Radheeʿ (the infant martyr of Karbala), and likewise to al-Muhsin, the miscarried grandson of the Prophet (peace be upon him), according to your financial capacity. Once your need is fulfilled, spend the vowed amount on a needy Shia orphan. If you cannot find one, send it to us so we may serve the believing orphans. Also, recite 100 verses from the Qur’an daily—from any part of it—and after finishing the recitation, say: "O Allah, I ask You by Your Greatest, Most Exalted, Most Glorious, Most Honorable Name—O Allah" (repeat this seven times), then send blessings upon the Prophet and his family, and make your supplication and request from Allah. Your need will be granted, Allah willing. Allah is the Granter of success.
