Chapter on the Manner of Prayer, Its Description and What is Obligatory and Recommended

سَعْدٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ اَلصَّنْعَانِيِّ قَالَ: كَتَبْتُ إِلَى أَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ اَلثَّالِثِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ اَلسُّجُودِ عَلَى اَلْقُطْنِ وَ اَلْكَتَّانِ مِنْ غَيْرِ تَقِيَّةٍ وَ لاَ ضَرُورَةٍ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيَّ« ذَلِكَ جَائِزٌ»
Sa'd from Abdullah ibn Ja'far from Al-Husayn ibn Ali ibn Kaysan Al-San'ani, who said: I wrote to Abu Al-Hasan Al-Thalith, peace be upon him, asking Him عليه السلام about prostrating upon cotton and linen without dissimulation (taqiyyah) and without necessity. So Imam عليه السلام wrote back to me: "That is permissible."
