{"Image DocumentName": "THE PRESENCE OF HEART IN PRAYERS Imam al-Sadiq (AS) has said: Dear to me is the believer from among you who attends to God with his heart at the time of Prayer and does not pre-occupy his heart with any mundane matter. If the worshipper knew to what extent His (Allah\u2019s) Mercy surrounded him during Prayer, he would never raise his head from the state of prostration. Nothing of your Prayer is yours except that which you did with an attentive heart. So, if one performed it completely erroneously, or neglected its disciplines, it would be folded and thrown back at its owner\u2019s face. (Wasa\u2019ilush-Shi\u2019ah, Volume 4, Page 687, Chapter 3, Tradition 1)", "Image ImageDescription": "One of the important cordial disciplines of the salat and other Ibada\u2019at is protecting against the intrusion of Satan. The assurance from the Aimmah (AS) is that if you do not permit Shaytan to enter your souls during Payer, then he has no power to divert your attention during Prayer. He (i.e. The Prophet (S) said, Shaytan lays his snout, which is like the snout of a pig on the heart of the son of Adam, and instigates him to turn towards the world and that which God has not made lawful. But when a person remembers Allah, Shaytan slinks away.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
