First: It is advisable to say the following supplicatory prayer each day in Rajab. It has been narrated that Imam Zayn al-’Abidin (a.s.) used to say this supplicatory prayer on the first day of Rajab while he was imprisoned:
يَا مَنْ يَمْلِكُ حَوَاۤئِجَ السَّاۤئِلِيْنَ
O He who manages the wants of the needy,
وَ يَعْلَمُ ضَمِيْرَ الصَّامِتِيْنَ
and is aware of that which is hidden in the heart of the silent sufferers!
لِكُلِّ مَسْاَلَةٍ مِنْكَ سَمْعٌ حَاضِرٌ
Every problem receives Your attention,
وَ جَوَابٌ عَتِيْدٌ
and is settled well.
اَللّٰهُمَّ وَ مَوَاعِيْدُكَ الصَّادِقَةُ
O Allah, Your promises come true,
وَ اَيَادِيْكَ الْفَاضِلَةُ
Your favors are many,
وَ رَحْمَتُكَ الْوَاسِعَةُ
and Your Mercy is extensive,
فَاَسْاَلُكَ اَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلٰى مُحَمَّدٍ وَ اٰلِ مُحَمَّدٍ
therefore, I beseech You to send blessings to Muhammad and the Household of Muhammad,
وَ اَنْ تَقْضِيَ حَوَاۤئِجِيْ لِلدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ
and fulfill my desires in this world and in the world to come.
اِنَّكَ عَلٰى كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ قَدِيرٌ۔
Verily, You have power over all things.
