>Imagine the angel of death behind you, the angel that appears as a

>beautiful person at the deathbed of one who is favoured by Allah and as

>fierce creature that pulls the soul out as if it were a cloth being

>dragged amongst sharp thorns for one who is disfavoured. Imagine this

>angel just at your back whilst praying. How then can you be distracted

>if you are not even sure that this might be your last prayer?

>

>And finally imagine : the Creator of all that has been mentioned in the
