There is a story of a wife who was religious and devotional. One day she arranged a feast and her husband asked, "What is it for? Is it a religious day?" "It is more than a religious day," she said, "It is the greatest day in my life. There was something which always kept me anxious and it has left me now." The husband asked what that was, and she said, "Since I married you I thought that you had no inclination to anything spiritual or religious." "Then what makes you think otherwise?" asked the husband. She said, "Today I have realized, now I understand, that you are spiritual." "Do you? How do you know?" "Well," she said, "do not ask me." "No, tell it to me." She then told him, "I heard you say the name of God while turning over in your sleep." "Did I?" said he, "Alas." He fell down and died instantly.
