Intertextuality is a theory that focuses on the necessary interconnection between the texts and studies how the texts related to each other. applying this theory in the field of Qur’an and Hadiths is effective in explaining the deep connection between Qur’an and Etrat (prophet's family). Thus, in this article, we seek to study the intertextual connection between the Holy Qur’an and Ṣaḥīfa al-Sajjādiya on the issue of evil (Satan). Applying a Descriptive-Analytic study, we aim to expand a new horizon on the interpretation of the Prayers. The knowledgeable relation between Imam Sajjad's thoughts and Holy Qur’an paves the way to compromise between the underlying text and presenting text. Like the Holy Qur’an, Ṣaḥīfa al-Sajjādiya deals with Evil's attributes and practices. most of the prayers of Ṣaḥīfa al-Sajjādiya on overcoming Evil are deeply understood only in the light of their interconnection with the Holy Qur’an. meticulously studying the prayers of Ṣaḥīfa al-Sajjādiya, we conclude that most of the intertextual connection between Holy Qur’an and the prayers are reflected in a parallel negation in which Imam Sajjad (AS) makes a compromise between the underlying and presenting text and as a result provides a knowledgeable connection with the text. relying on Qur’anic terms Imam Sajjad (AS) explains the following issues in his prayers: Satan's temptation and devious, Evil seduction, beautifying the false actions by him, overcoming Evil by the power of prayers, protecting the children from Evil through prayers, prayers protect us from being Evil companions, etc.
