In addition to the well-known and widely circulated Sahifa, referred to as the Sahifa al-Kamila (the Complete Sahifa), Islamic scholars have compiled five other collections of supplications by Imam Zain al-Abidin (peace be upon him). These have been published under the titles: Al-Sahifa al-Thaniya (the Second Sahifa), Al-Sahifa al-Thalitha (the Third Sahifa), Al-Sahifa al-Rabi'a (the Fourth Sahifa), and Al-Sahifa al-Khamisa (the Fifth Sahifa). | In addition to the well-known and widely circulated Sahifa, referred to as the Sahifa al-Kamila (the Complete Sahifa), Islamic scholars have compiled five other collections of supplications by Imam Zain al-Abidin (peace be upon him).

The Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya was initially a collection of 75 supplications and invocations that Imam al-Sajjad (a) dictated to his two sons, Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (a) and Zayd b. Ali. For this reason, the original version was written in two copies. [24] Yahya b. Zayd provided the copy written by his father, Zayd, to Mutawakkil b. Harun al-Balkhi (the first narrator of the Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya). Mutawakkil then took this copy to Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq (a) and compared it with the copy that had been preserved from Imam al-Baqir (a), finding no discrepancies between the two. Imam al-Sadiq (a) dictated the book to Mutawakkil b. Harun, who wrote it down. However, Mutawakkil lost 11 supplications, leaving only 64 supplications. [25] Some of these 64 supplications were not transmitted to later periods, which is why the existing versions of the Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya contain only 54 supplications.
