Question:

What is the source of Dua-e-Eftetah?

Answer:


                               Bismihi Ta'ala


Salaamun alaykum,

The origin of Dua-e Iftitah can be traced through a reliable chain of
transmission by way of which we know that this du'a, which is recited in
the month of Ramadan, was handed down to us from Imam al-Mahdi (may God
expedite his return). 

There is also internal evidence within the du'a that gives us a clue the
Imam al-Mahdi (a.s.) is the one who composed it. 

Idd mubarak to all of you.  It is time to bid farewell to the blessed
month of Ramadan. 

wa bi-l-laahi-t-tawfiq,

Hamid Mavani
