عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عُبْدُوسٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنِ اَلْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنْ لَيْثٍ اَلْمُرَادِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلْمَرْعَفِ يَرْعُفُ زَوَالَ اَلشَّمْسِ حَتَّى يَذْهَبَ اَللَّيْلُ قَالَ« يُومِئُ إِيمَاءً بِرَأْسِهِ عِنْدَ كُلِّ صَلاَةٍ» وَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ اِسْتَفْرَغَهُ بَطْنُهُ قَالَ« يُومِئُ بِرَأْسِهِ».
Narrated by Ahmad ibn Abdus, from al-Husayn ibn Ali, from al-Mufaddal ibn Salih, from Laith al-Muradi, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام:
I asked Imam عليه السلام about a person who has a nosebleed (continuously) from midday until the night passes. Imam عليه السلام said: “He should signal with his head (as a gesture) during each prayer.” And Imam عليه السلام said: regarding a man who has severe diarrhea, Imam عليه السلام said: “He should also signal with his head.”
