The sixth hour, which is the space of time between the amount of four units of prayer before midday (zohr) up to the time of the Noon Prayer, is dedicated to Imam Ja’far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq(a.s.). The supplication at this hour is the following:
يَا مَنْ لَطُفَ عَنْ اِدْرَاكِ الْاَوْهَامِ
O He Who is too subtle to be comprehended by illusions!
يَا مَنْ كَبُرَ عَنْ مَوْجُوْدِ الْبَصَرِ
O He Who is too great to be observed by existent sights!
يَا مَنْ تَعَالٰى عَنِ الصِّفَاتِ كُلِّهَا
O He Who is too exalted above all attributes!
يَا مَنْ جَلَّ عَنْ مَعَانِى اللُّطْفِ
O He Who is too majestic above all significances of subtlety
وَ لَطُفَ عَنْ مَعَانِى الْجَلَالِ
and too subtle above all significances of majesty!
اَسْئَلُكَ بِنُوْرِ وَجْهِكَ وَ ضِيَاۤءِ كِبْرِيَاۤئِكَ
beseech You in the name of the light of Your Face and the brightness of Your grandeur
وَ اَسْئَلُكَ بِحَقِّ عَظَمَتِكَ
and I beseech You in the name of Your greatness
الْعَافِيَةَ مِنْ نَّارِكَ
to grant me salvation from Your Fire.
وَ اَسْئَلُكَ بِحَقِّ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَلَيْكَ
I also beseech You in the name of the regard of Ja'far, theson of Muhammad, with You
You may now mention your needs.
وَ اُقَدِّمُهُ بَيْنَ يَدَىْ حَوَاۤئِجِىْ
and I present him as my mediation for the settling of my needs,
