| Al-Ṣaḥīfa al-Sajjādiyya (Arabic: ٱلصَّحِيفَة ٱلسَّجَّادِيَّة, lit. 'The Scripture of al-Sajjad')[a] is a book of supplications attributed to Ali ibn Husayn Zayn al-Abidin (c. 659–713), the great-grandson of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, the fourth Twelver Shi'a Imam and the third Ismaili Shi'a Imam. A seminal work in early Islamic spirituality, the book is considered to be the oldest prayer manual in Islamic sources. Shia tradition regards the book with great respect, ranking it behind the Quran and Ali's Nahj al-Balagha. Fifty-four supplications form the main body of Al-Sahifa, which often also includes an addenda of fourteen supplications and fifteen munajats (lit. 'whispered prayers'). Al-Sahifa is often regarded as authentic by the specialists in the science of hadith. Chittick describes the book as "one of the deepest veins of Islamic spirituality," while Husain Mohammad Jafri posits that the supplications in Al-Sahifa embody the answers to many of the spiritual questions faced by the man of our age.
