Dua'a For Last Day(s) of SHA`BAN
Imam al-Ridha(a.s) is reported as saying, “If one observes fasting on the last three days of Sha`ban and attach it to the obligatory fasting of Ramadan, Almighty Allah will decide his as observing fasting in two consecutive months.”
Abu’l-¯alt al-Harawiy has narrated that when he visited Imam al-Ridha (a.s) on the last Friday of Sha`ban, the Imam said to him, “Abu’l-¯alt: The majority of Sha`ban has passed. This is the last Friday in it. You should thus settle what you have missed in this month by working hard in the rest of it. You may supplicate, seek forgiveness of Almighty Allah, recite the Holy Qur'an, and repent before Almighty Allah from your sins so that you receive the month of Ramadan with pure sincerity to Almighty Allah.
You must fulfill all the trusts that you are liable to settle; and do not bear malice against any of your brethren-in-faith; and you must give up any sin that you commit. Fear Almighty Allah and trust in Him in secret and openly, for ‘If any one puts his trust in Allah, sufficient is (Allah) for him. For Allah will surely accomplish his purpose: verily, for all things has Allah appointed a due proportion. 65/3’
In the rest days of Sha`ban, you may repeat the following supplication very much for Almighty Allah saves many people from Hellfire on account of the sanctity of this month:

O Allah: If You have not forgiven us in the past days of Sha`ban, |
alluhumma in lam takun ghafarta lana fima madha min sha`bana | اللّهُمَّ إنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ غَفَرْتَ لَنَا فِيمَا مَضَى مِنْ شَعْبَانَ |
| (please do) forgive us in the rest of it. | faghfir lana fima baqiya minhu | فَاغْفِرْ لَنَا فِيمَا بَقِيَ مِنْهُ. |
| Imam al-Sadiq (a.s) used to say the following supplication at the last night of Sha`ban and the first night of Ramadhan: | ||

| O` Allah! Keep me alive to live the life of righteousness and cause me to die the best death in a state of love (in my heart) towards Your friends and in a state of enmity towards Your enemies and with a desire to meet you and fearing You and with humility and fulfilling the promise and submitting to Your will, testifying Your Book and following the life-pattern of Your Messenger. | allahumma abqini Khairal Baqaa`e wa afnini Khairal Fanaa`e Alaa Muwalate Auliyaa`eka wa Muadate A`adaa`eka war Raghbate Ilaika war Rahbate Minka wal Khushoo`e wal wafaa`e wat Tasleeme Lakawat Tasdeeqe Be Kitabeka wa Ittiba`e sunnate Rasooleka | اَللّهُمَّ اَبْقِنى خَيْرَ الْبَقاَّءِ وَاَفْنِنى خَيْرَ الْفَناَّءِ عَلى مُوالاةِ اَوْلِياَّئِكَ وَمُعاداةِ اَعْداَّئِكَ والرَّغْبَةِ اِلَيْكَ والرَّهْبَةِ مِنْكَ وَالْخُشُوعِ وَالْوَفاءِ وَالتَّسْليمِ لَكَ وَالتَّصْديقِ بِكِتابِكَ وَاتِّباعِ سُنَّةِ رَسُولِكَ |
| O` Allah! Remove from my heart any doubt, disbelief, disappointment, in intoxication, conceit insolence, vanity, show, desire from fame, disagreement, hypocrisy, infidelism, transgression, disobedience, pride or any thing that You love not. | Allahumma Ma Kana Fi Qalbi Min Shakkin Au Raibatin Au Juhoodin au Qunootin Au Farajin Au Bazakhin Au Batarin Au Khoylaa`a Au Riyaa`in Au sum`atin Au Shiqaqin Au Nifaqin Au Kufrin Au Fusooqin Au Isyanin au Azmatin Au Shai`in La Tohibbo | اَللّهُمَّ ما كانَ فى قَلْبى مِنْ شَكٍّ اَوْ رَيْبَةٍ اَوْ جُحُودٍ اَوْ قُنُوطٍ اَوْ فَرَحٍ اَوْ بَذَخٍ اَوْ بَطَرٍ اَوْ خُيَلاَّءَ اَوْ رِياَّءٍ اَوْ سُمْعَةٍ اَوْ شِقاقٍ اَوْ نِفاقٍ اَوْ كُفْرٍ اَوْ فُسُوقٍ اَوْ عِصْيانٍ اَوْ عَظَمَةٍ اَوْ شَى ءٍ لا تُحِبُّ |

| I ask You O` Lord! of the Worlds. O` my Allah! disobedience to You is due to Your forbearence, and obedience is due to Your generosity and magnanimity as if You were never disobeyed. I and he who never disobeyed are the dwellers of Your earth. | As`aloka Zaleka ya Rabbal A`alameena Ilahi anta Min Hilmeka To`sa wa Min Karameka wa Joodeka Tota`o Fakannaka Lam to`sa wa Ana wa Man Lam Ya`seka sukkano arzeka | اَسْئَلُكَ ذلِكَ يا رَبَّ الْعالَمينَ اِلهى اَنْتَ مِنْ حِلْمِكَ تُعْصى وَمِنْ كَرَمِكَ وَجُودِكَ تُطاعُ فَكَانَّكَ لَمْ تُعْصَ وَاَنَا وَمَنْ لَمْ يَعْصِكَ سُكّانُ اَرْضِكَ |

| And bestow on Mohammad and his progeny Your everlasting and unlimited blessings which neither could be reckoned nor appreciated by any one except You. O` the Most Merciful! | wa Sallallaho alaa Mohammadin Aalehi Salaatan Da`ematan La tohsa wa La to`addo wa In Yaqdero Qadaraha Ghairoka ya Arhamar Rahemeen. | وَصَلَّى اللّهُ عَلى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ الِهِ صَلوةً داَّئِمَةً لا تُحْصى وَلا تُعَدُّ وَلا يَقْدِرُ قَدْرَها غَيْرُكَ يا اَرْحَمَ الرّاحِمينَ |
