The Jawshan Kabeer (Arabic: الجَوْشَن ٱلْكَبِير, romanized: Jawšan Kabīr, lit. 'Great Cuirass') is a long Islamic prayer that contains 1001 names and attributes of God in Islam, and is widely used in many Twelver Shi'i Muslim traditions, and also in some Sunni Muslim tradition especially in Turkey. Jawshan means "steel plate" or "mail" and thus the name of the prayer refers to Muhammad's heavy armor in battle.
