Question text
Would you please give us further explanation about Al-Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya which is allegedly attributed to Ali ibn Al-Hossein alias Imam Sajjad the fourth Shiite Imam?
Answer
Muslim and non-Muslim circles have taken great care of al-Sahifa al-Sajjadia, the following are some aspects of the taking care of it:
A. The Muslim scholars and the righteous recite it by night and day pleading to Allah through it to pardon them and to save them from the Fire.
B. It has been translated from Arabic into numerous languages such as English, Persian, Germany, Urdu, French. It is worth mentioning that the Sahifa has been translated into Persian many times, for example, it has been translated by al-Hajj Imad al-Did al-Asfahani, Shaykh Jawad Fadil, and al-Sayyid Ali Naqi Fayd al-Islam, hence they made their nation make use of al-Sahifa, which is one of treasures of thought, knowledge, and wisdom.
C. The calligraphers always write and decorate it with wonderful scripts and decorations; hence the cases of the Islamic manuscripts are full of it.
