A collection of supplications recited during the holy month of Ramadan have been translated into the German language and published in the form of a book in Germany.
According to IQNA’s branch in Europe, the supplications have been collected from Mafatih-ol-Jinan and translated into German by Mohammad Ali Ramin.
Dua Iftitah and supplication by Abu Hamzah Thomali have been included in the collection published in 168 pages.
The holy month of Ramadan has been introduced in the preface of the book which also briefly clarifies the importance of the month.
Mafatih-ol-Jinan (Keys to Heavens) by Shaikh Abbass Qumi is a Twelver Shi'a compilation of selected chapters (surahs) from Quran, Ta’qeebat-e namaz (acts of worship after prayers), supplications narrated from the Ahl-ol-Bayt (AS) and text of Ziyarats.
It contains some of the richest and most reliable duas (supplications) and verses from the vast Twelver literature and its collection (authenticity of scripts) is reliable & its compilation has been highly approved by Shi'a clerics throughout the last century.
The book is widely popular in the Twelver world and almost every Shia household in Iran possesses a copy of it.
It is widely available at Shi'a shrines in much of Iran & Iraq as it contains acts of prayers and texts of supplications and invocations which hold a prominent place in the Twelver Shi'a form of worship.
The book was originally in Persian translation & commentary accompanied with Arabic text, but later on was translated into many major languages, such as Urdu, English and Hindi.
