وَبِإِسْنادِهِ قالَ: قالَ عَلِيِ‏ عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ دَعا لي‏ النَّبِيُ‏ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ فَقالَ: اَللَّهُمَّ اِهدِ قَلْبَهُ، وَاشْرِح صَدْرَهُ، وَثَبِّت لِسانَهُ وَقِهَ الحَرَّ وَالبَردَ.

According to the same documentation, Ali (a.s.) said, “The Prophet (S) prayed for me and said, O my God! expand his breast [77] , strengthen his tongue, and protect him from heat and cold.”

[77] See verse 9:25 of the Holy Quran. The breast is reputed to be the seat of knowledge and affection. The gift of the highest spiritual insight is being asked for. The Prophet Muhammad (S) was asked about the meaning of this verse when it was revealed. He said, “It is a light that is lit in a believer’s heart which leads to his enlightenment.” Then he (a.s.) was asked, “Are there any signs for this?” The Prophet (S) replied, “Yes. The signs are an attachment to the Eternal Abode, detachment from this world and preparedness for death when it arrives.” [Majmaul Bayan, vol.4, p.363].
