Tabaaki

Tabaaki

(Pose for weeping while asking Dua)

Abi Hamzeh has reported on the authority of Imam Ja'far al-Sadeq ( a.s.)
" When you fear something happen, or desire something, first praise God and glorify Him as He deserves, then recite Salawaat and then shed tears even if it is the size of a head of a fly, for my father said: The nearest state of God's servant to Him is to go into prostration and weep in that state."
( Reference : Oddatul Daaee (The Asset of the Supplicant), Hadees 459)
Imam Ja'far al- Sadeq (a.s.) has also said:
" If weeping does not give you a positive response, and tears do not come to your eyes, pose as one who is weeping even if it is the size of the head of a fly, for blessed will be your state."
( Reference : Oddatul Daaee (The Asset of the Supplicant), Hadees 460)
