From the past discussion the meaning of the following verse is also learnt...

Numerous traditional reports also confirm this matter. For example: In Tafseer Majmaul Bayan it is narrated from the Holy Prophet (S) that he said: “One whose prayer does not take him away from sins and evils would not get anything except that he would be distanced from Allah.”[^3] I say: That is he has not fulfilled perfectly the rights of Prayer, therefore the effect of Prayer is not seen upon him, and Allah knows best.

In Wasailush Shia, it is narrated from Imam Ali Reza from his forefathers (as) that the Messenger of Allah (S) said: “Satan is always afraid of the believer as long as he observes the daily prayers with punctuality.

Thus if he misses the Prayers, Satan dares to approach him and make him commit greater sins.”[^4] I say: Every worship act is same; that if the believer performs it in the way Allah has commanded – from the view of the requirements of worship – it takes him closer to Allah and further away from Satan.

And every worship act that in the view of religious law is more important and greater, there are more requirements in it, for example: Prayer, Zakat , Wilayat , recitation of Qur’an, praying for an early reappearance of the Master of the Time etc. And every worship act that is performed fulfilling most conditions of its acceptance, would give more swift and better results. By this we come to know the reason of praying for an early reappearance of the Master of the Time.

Second matter: As mentioned in the blessed verse of the Holy Qur’an, and it is higher than the first. It is that Prayer is only and only the remembrance of Allah and it is forgetting that there are heavens and earth and this matter would be achieved by the fact that one should spend every moment of his life in the worship of Allah and that he does not see anything else. And he pays no attention to anything else.
