32. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Muhammad ibn Ali from abu Jamilah from Muhammad ibn Marwan from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Say, ‘I seek protection with Allah against Satan, the condemned to be stoned. I seek protection with Allah against the approach of Satan. Allah is Hearing and Omniscient.’ Say, ‘No one deserves to be worshipped except Allah alone. Who has no partner. He gives life and causes death. He has power over all things.’ The narrator has said that a man than asked, ‘Is it obligatory?’ The Imam said, ‘Yes, it is obligatory and limited that you say before sunrise and sunset, ten times and if you miss it then make it up during the day or night. ’”
