Prayer of the Sick, the Unconscious, the Weak and the Infirm, the Elderly and Others
وَ سَأَلَ عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَأْخُذُهُ اَلرُّعَافُ فِي اَلصَّلاَةِ وَ لاَ يَزِيدُ عَلَى أَنْ يَسْتَنْشِفَهُ أَ يَجُوزُ ذَلِكَ قَالَ «نَعَمْ.
Abdullah ibn Sulayman asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام about a person who experiences nosebleed during prayer and is only able to stop it by sniffing. Is this permissible? Imam عليه السلام said: "Yes."
