2:187{ وَابْتَغُواْ مَا كَتَبَ اللهُ لَكُمْ }

Source: al-Mawardi, al-Nukat wal-`Uyun.

فَرْدٌ حَيٌّ قَيُّومٌ حَكَمٌ عَدْلٌ قُدّوسٌ. سَيَجْعَلُ اللَّهُ بَعْدَ عُسْرٍ يُسْرًا 65:7

هَبْ لِي مِن لَّدُنكَ وَلِيًّا يَرِثُنِي 19:5-6

يُخْرِجُكُمْ طِفْلاً ثُمَّ لِتَبْلُغُوا 22:5

(This is the canonical reading of Ibn Abi `Abla, Talha and `Umar b. Shabba)

Source: al-Gumushkhanawi, al-Qulub al-Dari`a.

لِلَّهِ مُلْكُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَاء 42:49

هُوَ الَّذِي يُصَوِّرُكُمْ فِي الأَرْحَامِ كَيْفَ يَشَاء لاَ إِلَـهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْحَكِيمُ 3:6

Shaykh Ahmad Zarruq mentioned in his book al-Maqsad al-Asna fi Sharh Asma’  Allah al-Husna: If the infertile woman fasts and repeats “Ya Musawwir” every day 21 times, after Maghrib and before breaking fast, and let her fast-breaking be with water: her infertility will cease and the child shall be fashioned in her womb by permission of Allah Most High.

Success is from Allah Most High, upon Him is our reliance.
