This dua'a is attributed to the living Imam Mehdi (atfs). It brings immediate help from our living imam. It is recommended to be recited often by Ulama .Kafami says in his book Baladul Amin that if a wrongfully confined prisoner recites this dua'a he will soon be set free. If a person find himself surrounded by misfortunes or intrigues he must recite this dua'a to come through tight situations, deadlock and crises.
دُعَاءُ الْفَرَجْ - إلهي عظم البلاء
Bismillahi ’r-rahmani ’r-rahim
In the Name of Allah, the All-beneficent, the All-merciful
إِلَهِيْ عَظُمَ الْبَلَاءُ وَبَرِحَ الْخَفَاءُ
Ilahi ‘azuma’l-bala’u wa bariha’l-khafa’
O my Lord! The calamity has aggravated; the absence prolonged;
وَانْكَشَفَ الْغِطَاءُ وَانْقَطَعَ الرَّجَاءُ ،
Wa’nkashafa’l-ghita’u wa’nqata‘a’r-raja’
The curtain of modesty has been lifted; hope has been curtailed;
وَضَاقَتِ الْأَرْضُ وَمُنِعَتِ السَّمَاءُ
Wa daqati’l-ardu wa muni‘ati’s-sama’
The earth has been narrow; and sky has been denied.
وَأَنْتَ الْمُسْتَعَانُ وَإِلَيْكَ الْمُشْتَكَي
Wa anta’l-musta‘anu wa ilayka’l-mushtaka
And You are the One from whom help is sought and complaints are made
وَ عَلَيْكَ الْمُعَوَّلُ فِيْ الشِّدَّةِ وَالرَّخَاءِ،
Wa ‘alayka al-mu‘awwalu fi’sh-shiddati wa’r-rakha’
And in You we trust in the times of difficulty.
اَللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَي مُحَمَّدٍ وَّآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
Allahumma salli ‘ala Muhammad wa ali Muhammad
O Allah! Send blessings upon Muhammad (S) and the progeny of Muhammad (S),
أُوْلِي الْأَمْرِ الَّذِيْنَ فَرَضْتَ عَلَيْنَا طَا عَتَهُمْ
Uli’l-amri’l-ladhina faradta ‘alayna ta‘atahum
The possessors of authority whose obedience you have enjoined upon us
وَ عَرَّفْتَنَا بِذَالِكَ مَنْزِلَتَهُمْ ، فَفَّرِجْ عَنَّا بِحَقِّهِمْ فَرَجاً عَاجِلاً قَرِيْباً كَلَمْحِ الْبَصَرِ أَوْ هُوَ أَقْرَبُ
Wa ‘arraftana bidhalika manzilatahum fafarrij ‘anna bi-haqqihim farajan ‘ajilan qariban kalamhi’l-basari aw huwa aqrab
And by that made us aware of their position. Then make open for us, by their truth, an immediate opening, immediate as a wink or sooner.
يَامُحَمَّدُ يَاعَلِيُّ يَاعَلِيُّ يَامُحَمَّدُ
Ya Muhammadu ya ‘Aliyyu ya Muhammad
O Muhammad! O ‘Ali! O ‘Ali! O Muhammad!
ِكْفِيَانِيْ فَإِنَّكُمَا كَافِيَانِ وَ انْصُرَانِيْ فَإِنَّكُمَا نَاصِرَانِ
Ikfiyani fainnakuma kafiyani wa’n-surani fainnakuma nasiran
Suffice me both of you as both of you are sufficient.Help me—two of you—for you are my helpers.
يَامَوْلَانَا يَاصَاحِبَ الزَّمَانِ
Ya mawlana ya sahiba’z-zaman
O our Master, O Master of the Time!
اَلْغَوْثَ اَلْغَوْثَ اَلْغَوْثَ
Al-ghawtha’l-ghawtha’l-ghawth,
Help! Help!
أَدْرِكْنِيْ أَدْرِكْنِيْ أَدْرِكْنِيْ
Adrikni adrikni adrikni
Rescue me! Rescue me! Rescue me!
اَلسَّاعَةَ اَلسَّاعَةَ اَلسَّاعَةَ
As-sa‘ata’s-sa‘ata’s-sa‘ah
This moment! This moment! This moment!
اَلْعَجَلَ اَلْعَجَلَ اَلْعَجَلَ
Al-‘ajala’l-‘ajala’l-‘ajal
Hasten, hasten, hasten!
يَا أَرْحَمَ لرَّاحِمِيْنَ بِحَقِّ مُحَمَّدٍ وَّآلِهِ الطَّا هِرِيْنَ
Ya arhama’r-rahimina bi-haqqi Muhammad wa alihi’t-tahirin
O Most Merciful of the Merciful,For the sake of Muhammad (S) and his holy progeny.
