قَالَ الصَّادِقُ(ع): إِنَّ مَلَكَ الْمَوْتِ يَدْفَعُ الشَّيْطَانَ عَنِ
الْمُحَافِظِ عَلى الصَّلاةِ وَ يُلَقِّـنُهُ شَهَادَةَ أَنْ لاَ إِلٌهَ
إِلاَّ اللٌّهُ وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اللٌّهِ فِي تِلْكَ
الْحَالَةِ الْعَظِيمَةِ.

 Imam As-Sadiq (peace be upon him) has said: “Surely the Angel of Death
repels Satan from the proximity of one who had adhered to and guarded
his prayers, and makes him speak out the testimony of ‘There is no God
except Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah’ during that
terrifying and frightening state (of death).”** **
