When the call of caller ends he responds to it by placing his hands on the ground and raising his head to the sky and says the following. "God Himself testifies that He is the only Lord.

The angels and the men of knowledge and justice testify that God is the only Lord, the Majestic, and All-wise." (3:18) The Imam (a.s.) said, "When he says this, Allah grants him the knowledge of the fist and the knowledge of the last the qualification to be visited by the spirit in the nights of destiny." I then said, may Allah take my soul in service for your cause, is the Spirit different from Jibril?" He said, "The Spirit is a creature greater than Jibril. Jibril is of the angels.

The Spirit is a creature greater than the angels. Is it not true that Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High, has said, "On this Night, the angels and the Spirit descend . ." .(97:4) Muhammad ibn Yahya and Ahmad ibn Muhammad have narrated from Muhammad ibn al- Husayn from Ahmad ibn al-Hassan from al-Mukhtar ibn Ziyad from Muhammad ibn Sulayman from his father from abu Basir a similar hadith.

He is All-hearing and Allknowing." (6:115) When the preceding Imam passes away a light house made from light is prepared for him and this light house he examines the deeds of the creatures.
