To be sure that she doesn't come to while above ground, which would then ruin the plan to reunite Romeo and Juliet
The friar failed to take reasonable steps to tell Romeo to come and get Juliet, by sending the message with Friar John instead of someone who was likely to see Romeo anyway, like Balthazar. But the plan was flawed anyway in having Romeo come to pick Juliet up. Because nobody could tell for sure when she was going to wake up unless they watched her drink the potion, the friar should have got the iron crow in the first place and have broken into the vault himself, removed Juliet and smuggled her to Mantua. But he was too much of a moral coward to propose this.

Act IV of Romeo and Juliet focuses on the plan devised by Friar Laurence to help Juliet avoid marrying Paris by faking her death. Juliet takes a potion that makes her appear dead, allowing her to be placed in the Capulet vault until Romeo can rescue her. However, miscommunication leads to tragic consequences for the young lovers.

Romeo kills Paris in the vault before taking his own life upon discovering Juliet apparently dead.
Romeo and Juliet come from two different families who happen to be warring with each other. Romeo and Juliet first meet after Romeo sneaks into a Capulet party. They fall in love instantly and meet up that night. The next morning Romeo ask Friar Lawrence to marry them. The Friar says yes hoping that the marriage will end the feuding between the two houses. So Romeo and Juliet are married. An hour after they're married Tybalt challenges Romeo to a duel. Merctuio's killed while Romeo tries to make peace with Tybalt. A grief stricken Romeo avenges Mercutio's death and slays the villain Tybalt. Romeo flees the scene before the Prince comes and banishes Romeo. That night after much encouraging on Friar Lawrence's part, Romeo and Juliet finalize their marriage. The next morning Romeo flees Verona before the guard changes. Capulet then tells Juliet she is to marry Pairs. Juliet arrives in Friar Lawrence's cell and demands his help. The Friar gives Juliet a vial which will make her seem dead but will only be a very deep sleep. After Juliet leaves the Friar writes a letter to Romeo explaining what is going on. Juliet drinks the vial and her family finds her. Believing she is dead her family holds a funeral and Romeos man Balthazar burst in on the funeral. The man then runs to Romeo and tells him what has happened. Romeo then returns to Verona and enters the Capulet vault disturbing Paris who has come to lay flowers on Juliet's tomb. The two fight and Romeo wins. Romeo then drinks a poison he bought from an Apothecary. He kisses Juliet and dies. Juliet wakes up two seconds later and finds her husband dead. She takes his dagger and kills herself. Montague, Capulet and the Prince arrive on the scene and have a chat about putting aside their differences and making peace. The play finishes with the Prince saying, "For never was there a tale of more woe, Then this of Juliet and her Romeo."
The Friar suggests that Juliet drinks a potion that will make her appear dead. He plans for her to be placed in the Capulet tomb, and once she wakes up, Romeo will be there to take her away and they can be together.
Juliet is afraid of the family vault because she has been told stories about how it is a place of death and darkness, and she fears being alone among the dead bodies inside. She also expresses concerns about the eerie nature of the tomb and the possibility of waking up too early and suffocating in the darkness.
