Chapter on What is Permissible to Pray in, from Clothing and Place, and What is Not Permissible to Pray in, from That
رَوَى ذَلِكَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَمْرِو بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ اَلْهَمْدَانِيِّ رَفَعَ اَلْحَدِيثَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ:« لاَ بَأْسَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ اَلرَّجُلُ وَ اَلنَّارُ وَ اَلسِّرَاجُ وَ اَلصُّورَةُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ إِنَّ اَلَّذِي يُصَلِّي لَهُ أَقْرَبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ اَلَّذِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ»
This was narrated by Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya, from al-Hasan, from al-Husayn ibn ‘Amr, from his father ‘Amr ibn Ibrahim al-Hamdani.
He (al Hamdani) raised the narration, saying that Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: "There is no harm if a man prays while there is fire, a lamp, or an image in front of him, indeed, the One عز وجل to whom he is praying is nearer to him than that which is in front of him."
