Ibn Abi Ya'fur narrated that Imam Sadiq (a.s) said
“Whenever you want to perform your obligatory prayers, perform them on time, and do it like one who is doing his last prayer and is worried that he will not be able to pray again. Turn your eyes to the location of your prostration. You would perform your prayers well when you know who is on your right side and on your left side. Know that you are praying in the presence of One who sees you but you cannot see Him.”
عن ابن أبي يعفور قال
قال أبو عبد الله (عليه السلام): إذا صليت صلاة فريضة فصلها في وقتها صلاة مودع تخاف أن لا ترجع إليها، ثم اصرف بصرك إلى موضع سجودك، فلو تعلم من عن يمينك ويسارك لأحسنت الصلاة، واعلم أنك قدام من يراك ولا تراه.
