Chapter on What is Permissible to Pray in, from Clothing and Place, and What is Not Permissible to Pray in, from That
وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ يَاسِرٍ اَلْخَادِمِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: مَرَّ بِي أَبُو اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ أَنَا أُصَلِّي عَلَى اَلطَّبَرِيِّ وَ قَدْ أَلْقَيْتُ عَلَيْهِ شَيْئاً فَقَالَ« مَالَكَ لاَ تَسْجُدُ عَلَيْهِ أَ لَيْسَ هُوَ مِنْ نَبَاتِ اَلْأَرْضِ»
And it was narrated from Yasir, the servant, that he said:
Abu Al-Hasan عليه السلام, peace be upon him, passed by me while I was praying on a piece of tabari (a type of mat or plant material), and I had placed something over it. Imam عليه السلام said: “Why do you not prostrate upon it? Is it not from vegetation of earth?”
