Chapter on What is Permissible to Pray in, from Clothing and Place, and What is Not Permissible to Pray in, from That
مَا رَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ جَمَاعَةٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَخِيهِ اَلْحَسَنِ عَنْ زُرْعَةَ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ يَكُونُ فِي فَلاَةٍ مِنَ اَلْأَرْضِ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ إِلاَّ ثَوْبٌ وَاحِدٌ وَ أَجْنَبَ فِيهِ وَ لَيْسَ عِنْدَهُ مَاءٌ كَيْفَ يَصْنَعُ قَالَ« يَتَيَمَّمُ وَ يُصَلِّي عُرْيَاناً قَاعِداً وَ يُومِئُ»
What was narrated by Muhammad ibn Ya‘qub, from a group (of our companions), from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id, from his brother al-Hasan, from Zur‘ah, from Sama‘ah, who said:
I asked Him عليه السلام about a man who is in a deserted land and has only one garment, and he becomes in a state of major ritual impurity (junub) in it, and he does not have water, what should he do? Imam عليه السلام said: "He performs tayammum and prays naked, seated, and gestures (for bowing and prostration)."
