Tawassul I-Mahdi (a)-2توسل امام مہدی (ع)۔۲
One of the shortest supplications in the library, and among the best known — a call by name rather than a request in sentences: “O Allah, O Muhammad, O Ali, O Fatima, O Master of the Age — take me into your care, and do not destroy me.”
It is a tawassul: the reciter comes to Allah through those He honoured, naming the Prophet (s), Amir al-Mu’minin (a), Sayyida Fatima al-Zahra (s) and the living Imam. Its brevity is the point — it is meant to be reachable at a moment when nothing longer can be.

It was related that whoever is affected with grief, distress and trouble should recite the following 70 times…
روایت میں ہے کہ جس کسی کو کوئی ہم و غم ہو یا کسی شدّت میں مبتلا ہو اس کو چاہیئے کہ ۷۰ مرتبہ کہے۔۔۔
بِسْمِ اللہِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِیْمِ
Bismi allaahi ar-rahmaani ar-raheem
In the Name of Allah, the most Gracious, the most Merciful.
اللہ کے نام سے (شروع کرتا ہوں) جو بڑا مہربان نہایت رحم کرنے والا ہے۔
يَا اَللهُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ يَا عَلِيُّ يَا فَاطِمَةُ يَا صَاحِبَ الزَّمَانِ، اَدْرِكْنِيْ وَ لَا تُهْلِكْنِيْ۔
Yaa allaahu yaa muhammadu yaa 'aliyyu yaa faatimatu yaa saahiba az-zamaani, adriknee wa laa tuhliknee.
O Allah, O Muhammad, O Ali, O Fatimah, O the leader of the time, take me over and don’t destroy me.
اے اللہ! اے محمدؐ، اے علیؑ، اے فاطمہؑ، اے امام زمانہ (عج) مجھ تک پہنچیے اور مجھے ہلاکت سے بچائیے۔
اَللّٰهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَّآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ۔
Allaahumma salli 'alaa muhammadin wa-aali muhammad.
O Allah, send blessings upon Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad.
اے معبود! رحمت نازل فرما حضرت محمدؐ اور انکی آلؑ پر۔
