Shaykh al-Kulayni, in al-Kafi, has quoted Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (‘a) as saying, “Whoever recites the Qur’anic chapters that begin with glorification statements (al-musabbihat: Surahs al-Hadid, al-Hashr, al-Saff, al-Jumu’ah, al-Taghabun, and al-A’la) before he goes to sleep, will not die before he attends the reign of Imam al-Mahdi (‘a), and when he dies, he will be placed in the vicinity of Prophet Muhammad (s).”
