The One Praying Encounters Predatory Animals and Harmful Creatures and He Kills Them
وَ سَأَلَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ تُؤْذِيهِ اَلدَّابَّةُ وَ هُوَ يُصَلِّي قَالَ «يُلْقِيهَا عَنْهُ إِنْ شَاءَ أَوْ يَدْفِنُهَا فِي اَلْحَصَى.
Muhammad ibn Muslim asked Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام about a person who is harmed by an animal while he is praying. He عليه السلام replied: "He should throw it away from him if he wishes, or bury it in the pebbles."
