Namaz of Hz Jafar e Tayyar (a) : thread

Salaat (Namaz) of Hazrat Jafar-e-Tayyar (a) (brother of Imam Ali (a) is among the prayers that are greatly emphasized and it is famous among all sects. It was a gift of love bestowed by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (s) to his cousin upon his return from the journey.

The best time to perform it is on Friday before noon. This prayer can be counted as the Nafila of the night or the Nafila of the day.

METHOD - four rakat Namaz, divided into two parts 2 x 2 rakat. Recite each part exactly like the Fajr Namaz, with the following adjustments:

1st rakat After recitation of Sura Fatiha, recite Sura 99 Zilzaal once

2nd rakat After recitation of Sura Fatiha,recite Sura 100 Aadiyaat once

3rd Rakat After recitation of Sura Fatiha,recite Sura 110 Nasr once

4th Rakat after recitation of Sura Fatiha,recite Sura Ikhlaas once

If you do not remember these surahs of each rakat, then recite surah Ikhlaas in all 4 rakats

In each rakat recite 'Tasbeehaatul Arbaa' 75 times i.e cumulative 300 times in 4 rakats.

Tasbeehatul Arba - "subhaanallaahi wal hamdu lillaahi wa laa ilaaha illallaahu wallaahu akbar"

- After reciation of Surahs- 15 times
- In Rukoo- 10 times
- In Qiyyaam after Rukoo- 10 times
- In 1st Sajda- 10 times
- While sitting after First Sajda- 10 times
- In 2nd Sajda- 10 times
- While sitting after 2nd Sajda- 10 times (including in 2nd rakat 'before' reciting salam)

One has to make an effort to remember to recite this at each movement since the automatic action is to go to next action in normal Namaz. In case the recitation is missed in any position , those tasbihaat may be recited at the end upon completion.

In case of old age/weakness ,one can recite Tasbeehaatul arbaa 300 times at the end of Namaz, according to your convenience, while sitting, lying or standing.
In the last sajda of 4th Rakat say following dua :
