Abstract

Shiite narrative and prayer sources are full of pithy prayers issued by the infallible (Imams). Some of these prayers are offered to ask God to solve problems and troubles, especially the healing of diseases. But there must be a reason for attributing anything to the Imams. Assessing the validity of sources and narration books is one of the ways to check the validity of hadiths and prayers. Identifying books and sources of medical prayers is the first step to accessing and using these valuable works. This article uses library resources and descriptively-analytically recognizes the most important sources of medical prayers and validates them. First, we have introduced the sources that have dedicated a special chapter to this subject throughout history in the field of prayer or hadith collection. Then the most famous and extensive books of prayer and narration “Mafatih Al-Jannan and Bihar Al-Anwar” have been studied and the sources used by them have been extracted. The results of examining the sources of these two books are almost identical. The book "Teb al-Aemeh (AS)" by Abdullah and Hussein Ibn Bastam and Makarem al-Akhlaq by Tabarsi are the main sources of medical prayers, which unfortunately do not have enough credibility. But many healing prayers are mentioned in prayer sources, and by collecting them, a collection of authentic medical prayers can be donated to the devotees of the Ahl al-Bayt (AS).
