Can the holy Quran help me with my problems?

SHAFAQNA – It is narrated that a man came to Imam Sadeq (AS) and said: I want to complain about a few things, one is that I have a debt and have no way of repaying it, another is that I am under pressure from a high ranking person, I request from you to teach me a Dua to gain wealth to be able to repay my debt and also get rid of that dominating person. Imam Sadeq (AS) said: When the darkness of night is spread everywhere, perform Wudhu, perform two Rok’ats of Salaat; in the first Rok’at recite Surah Al-Fatiha and Ayatul Korsi, and in second Rok’at, recite Surah Al-Fatiha and Surah Al-Hashr from Ayah 20 to the end.

Then take the Quran and place it on top of your head and say: O’ Allah (SWT), for the sake of this Quran, and for the sake of the one whom this Quran was descended to, and for the sake of any believer who God has praised in the Quran, and for the sake of God’s rights on all these people, no one is wiser than God’s rights. Then repeat ten times in the order mentioned: Beka Ya Allah, Ya mohammad, Ya Ali, Ya Hassan, Ya Hussain, Ya Ali ibn Hussain, Ya mohammad ibn Ali, Ya Jaafar ibn Mohammad, Ya Mosa ibn Jaafar, Ya Ali ibn Mosa, Ya mohammad ibn Ali, Ya Ali ibn Mohammad, Ya Hassan ibn Ali, Ya Ayohal Hojjah; then request God your needs. That man carried out the instructions and all his requests were granted by God [1].
