أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِیلَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ الْبَطَائِنِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْمُؤْمِنِ عَنِ ابْنِ مُسْکَانَ عَنْ سُلَیْمَانَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع یَقُولُ مَنْ مَضَتْ لَهُ ثَلَاثَهُ أَیَّامٍ لَمْ یَقْرَأْ فِیهَا قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ فَقَدْ خُذِلَ وَ نَزَعَ رِبْقَهَ الْإِیمَانِ مِنْ عُنُقِهِ فَإِنْ مَاتَ فِی هَذِهِ الثَّلَاثَهِ أَیَّامٍ کَانَ کَافِراً بِاللَّهِ الْعَظِیمِ.


1. It is narrated that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s) said, “If three days of a person’s life pass by without reciting Surah Tauheed, he is without a companion. Faith will be taken away from him and if that person dies after these three days, he will die as a disbeliever of Allah, the Greatest.”
