قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) إِذَا قُمْتَ بِاللَّيْلِ فَاسْتَكْ فَإِنَّ الْمَلَكَ يَأْتِيكَ فَيَضَعُ فَاهُ عَلَى فِيكَ وَ لَيْسَ مِنْ حَرْفٍ تَتْلُوهُ وَ تَنْطِقُ بِهِ إِلَّا صَعِدَ بِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَلْيَكُنْ فُوكَ طَيِّبَ الرِّيحِ .
Translation
Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Bundar, from Ibrahim Bin Is’haq Al Ahmar, from Abdullah Bin Hammad, from Abu Bakr Bin Abu Sammak who said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Whenever you stand (for the <span class="iTxt">Salaat</span>) at night, so brush your teeth for the Angel comes to you, so he places his mouth upon your mouth, and there is none from the letters you recite and speak with except that he ascends with it to the sky, therefore let your mouth be with good aroma’.
