Dua'a E Kumayl –

As Taught by Moula Ali (asws)

ORIGIN OF THE DU'A Kumayl Ibn Ziyad Nakha'i was a confidant amongst the companions of
Imam Ali Ibn Abi Talib (asws.) and this sublime Du'a was first heard from the beautiful, though
anguished, voice of Imam Ali.
According to Allama Majlisi Kumayl had attended an assembly in the Mosque at Basra which
was addressed by Moula Ali (asws) in the course of which the night of the 15th of Shaban was
mentioned. Moula Ali (asws) said-"Whosoever keeps awake in devoutness on this night and
recites the Du'a of Prophet Khizr, undoubtedly that person's supplication will be responded to
and granted. When the assembly at the Mosque had dispersed, Kumayl called at the house
where Moula Ali (asws) was staying, and requested him to acquaint him with Prophet Khizr's
"Du'a". Moula Ali (asws) asked Kumayl to sit down, record and memorise the "Du'a" which
Moula Ali (asws) dictated to Kumayl.
Moula Ali (asws) then advised Kumayl to recite this "Du'a" on the eve of every Friday, or once
a month or at least once in every year so that, added Moula Ali (asws), "Allah may protect thee
from the evils of the enemies and the plots contrived by impostors. O' Kumayl! in
consideration of thy companionship and understanding, I grant thee this honour of entrusting
this "Du'a" to thee."
