Prayer of the Sick, the Unconscious, the Weak and the Infirm, the Elderly and Others
وَ رَوَى بُكَيْرُ بْنُ أَعْيَنَ: أَنَّ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَأَى رَجُلاً رَعَفَ وَ هُوَ فِي اَلصَّلاَةِ وَ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ فِي أَنْفِهِ فَأَخْرَجَ دَماً فَأَشَارَ إِلَيْهِ بِيَدِهِ «اُفْرُكْهُ بِيَدِكَ وَ صَلِّ.
Bukayr ibn Ayyan narrated that Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام saw a man who had a nosebleed during prayer. The man put his hand into his nose, took out blood, and the Imam gestured to him with his hand, saying, "Wipe it with your hand and continue praying."
