(Second chain) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Guarding the frontier for one day and night in the way of Allah is like fasting and standing in prayer for a month. In another narration, there are additional words: It is like the fasting person who does not break his fast and like the one who stands in prayer and does not become lazy, and if he dies in this state, his reward will continue for him until he is resurrected, and he will be safe from the trial of the grave.
