Duas for Each Hour of the Day

Merits

Shaykh al-Tusi, Sayyid Ibn Baqi, and Shaykh al-Kaf'ami have divided the day into twelve hours, dedicating each hour to one of the Twelve Imams and mentioning an advocacy-seeking supplication (tawassul) addressed to the Imam of that hour. Although these master scholars have not mentioned any tradition reported from the Holy Imams about this division, relying on the high regard of these scholars, it may be said that they would never say or do anything unless they had acquainted themselves with a narration indicating that saying or deed. The supplicatory prayers mentioned here are those quoted from Misbah al-Mutahajjid by Shaykh al-Tusi.
