الصَّلَاةُ وُكِّلَ بِهَا مَلَكٌ لَيْسَ لَهُ عَمَلٌ غَيْرُهَا فَإِذَا فُرِغَ مِنْهَا قَبَضَهَا ثُمَّ صَعِدَ بِهَا فَإِنْ كَانَتْ مِمَّا تُقْبَلُ قُبِلَتْ وَ إِنْ كَانَتْ مِمَّا لَا تُقْبَلُ قِيلَ لَهُ رُدَّهَا عَلَى عَبْدِي فَيَنْزِلُ بِهَا حَتَّى يَضْرِبَ بِهَا وَجْهَهُ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ أُفٍّ لَكَ مَا يَزَالُ لَكَ عَمَلٌ يَعْنِينِي .
Translation
Abu Ali Al-Ashary, from Muhammad in Abdul Jabbar, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Haroun Bin Kharjat, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘The <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> is such that an Angel has been Allocated with it, not having any work for him apart from it. So when he (the one praying it) is free from it, he (the Angel) captures it, then ascends with it. So if it was from what is acceptable, it is Accepted, and if it was from what is not acceptable, it is said to him: ‘Return it to My<sup>azwj</sup> servant!. So he descend with it until he strikes with it upon his face, then he is saying: ‘Uff to you! You do not cease to produce (those) deeds which only tire me’.
