Chapter on the Manner of Prayer, Its Description and What is Obligatory and Recommended
اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ اَلْفَضْلِ: أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلسُّجُودِ عَلَى اَلْحُصُرِ وَ اَلْبَوَارِي فَقَالَ« لاَ بَأْسَ وَ أَنْ يَسْجُدَ عَلَى اَلْأَرْضِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ كَانَ يُحِبُّ ذَلِكَ أَنْ يُمَكِّنَ جَبْهَتَهُ مِنَ اَلْأَرْضِ فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ لَكَ مَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ يُحِبُّهُ»
Al-Husayn ibn Sa'id from Ibn Abi Umayr from Umar ibn Udhaynah from Ishaq ibn Al-Fadl, who said:
He asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, about prostrating upon mats and woven reed mats. Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no harm, but that one prostrates upon the earth is more beloved to me, for the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless him and his family, used to love that, to firmly place his forehead upon the earth, so I love for you what the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless him and his family, used to love."
