Chapter on Rulings on Forgetfulness (Sahw) in Prayer and What Requires Repeating of Prayer

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« إِنْ شَكَكْتَ وَ لَمْ تَدْرِ أَ فِي ثَلاَثٍ أَنْتَ أَمْ فِي اِثْنَتَيْنِ أَمْ فِي وَاحِدَةٍ أَوْ فِي أَرْبَعٍ فَأَعِدْ وَ لاَ تَمْضِ عَلَى اَلشَّكِّ»
Muhammad bin Ahmad bin Yahya, from Ali bin Isma‘il, from Hammad, from Hariz, from Ibn Abi Ya‘fur: Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: "If you are doubtful and do not know whether you are in the third, or the second, or the first, or the fourth, then repeat (the prayer), and do not proceed based on doubt."
