8. Amirul Momineen (a.s.) said, “One who recites Surah Qul huwallaahu ah’ad eleven times after Morning Prayer won’t commit any sin during that day even if the Satan tries hard. In this way, the Satan will be disgraced.”

9. Imam Musa Kadhim (a.s.) said, “One who recites Surah Tauheed before meeting an unjust person, Allah will protect him from all sides and he will remain safe from the mischief of that unjust person. He will benefit from meeting that unjust person. Whenever you develop fear of something, recite a hundred verses of the Holy Quran and say, ‘O Allah! Take this calamity away from me’ thrice.”

“Abu al-Hassan, al-Rida’ (a.s.), once said to me, ‘O abu Muhammad, what do you say about a man who marries a Jewish or a Christian woman, as a second wife, the first being a Muslim woman?’ I replied, ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, my words have no meaning in your presence.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘You must say it; with it my words will come to light.’ I said, ‘It is not lawful to marry a Christian woman as a second wife, the first being a Muslim woman or non-Muslim woman.’ He (the Imam) asked, ‘Why is it so?’ I replied, ‘It is because of the words of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, “You must not marry the pagan women until they become believers.’” (2:221) He (the Imam) then asked, ‘What do you say about, “Marry of the chaste woman of the followers of the book (bible) which was before you” (5:5)?’ I replied, ‘Verse 221 of Chapter 2 has cancelled verse 5:5.’ He (the Imam) smiled and remained quiet.’”
