Three Locks And One Master Key

A young man came to Ayatollah Hassan Ali Nakhodaki (ra) and said, "I have three locks in my life and want three keys from you.

My first lock is that I want to have a good wife. My second lock is that I want Barakah (blessing) in my work. My third lock is that I want to have a righteous end."

Ayatollah Nakhodaki (ra) said: "For the first lock, offer Salah at the foremost timings.

For the second lock, offer Salah at the foremost timings. For the third lock, offer Salah at the foremost timings."

He said, "One key for three locks?"

Ayatollah Nakhodaki (ra) said, "Offering Salah at their foremost timings is a MASTER KEY."
