Places Where Prayer is Permissible and Where it is Not Permissible
وَ سَأَلَهُ سَمَاعَةُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ: عَنِ اَلْأَسِيرِ يَأْسِرُهُ اَلْمُشْرِكُونَ فَتَحْضُرُهُ اَلصَّلاَةُ فَيَمْنَعُهُ اَلَّذِي أَسَرَهُ مِنْهَا فَقَالَ «يُومِئُ إِيمَاءً.
Sama’a ibn Mehran asked Him about a captive taken by the polytheists who is prevented from performing prayer by his captor. Imam عليه السلام said: "He should make gestures (for prayer)."
