في كتابه الكلم الطيب، يقول السيد علي خان: 'ما يلي هو صيغة للاستغاثة بحجة الله وصاحب الزمان (الإمام المهدي) - عليه السلام: أينما كنت، يمكنك صلاة ركعتين، تقرأ في كل ركعة سورة الفاتحة وأي سورة أخرى. ولكن، يستحسن قراءة سورة الفتح (رقم 48) في الركعة الأولى وسورة النصر (رقم 110) في الثانية. ثم تقف متوجهاً إلى القبلة تحت السماء وتقول ما يلي:
In his book of al-Kalim al-Tayyib, Sayyid Ali Khan says, “The following is a form of seeking aid from The Argument of Allah and the Patron of the Age (Imam al-Mahdi) - peace be upon him: Wherever you are, you may offer a two-unit prayer, reading Surah al-Faatehah and any other one in each unit. Yet, it is advisable to read Surah al-Fath (No. 48) in the first unit and Surah al-Nasr (No. 110) in the second. You may then stand up, facing the kiblah direction under the sky and then say the following:
Katika kitabu chake cha al-Kalim al-Tayyib, Sayyid Ali Khan anasema, 'Ifuatayo ni namna ya kuomba msaada kutoka kwa Hujjah wa Mwenyezi Mungu na Kiongozi wa Zama (Imam al-Mahdi) - amani iwe juu yake: Popote ulipo, unaweza kuswali swala ya rakaa mbili, ukisoma Surah al-Faatehah na sura nyingine yoyote katika kila rakaa. Hata hivyo, inashauriwa kusoma Surah al-Fath (Na. 48) katika rakaa ya kwanza na Surah al-Nasr (Na. 110) katika rakaa ya pili. Kisha unaweza kusimama, ukielekea upande wa kibla chini ya mbingu na kisha ukasema yafuatayo:
