عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلْعَمْرَكِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَخِيهِ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلْمَرْأَةِ تَطُولُ قُصَّتُهَا فَإِذَا سَجَدَتْ وَقَعَ بَعْضُ جَبْهَتِهَا عَلَى اَلْأَرْضِ وَ بَعْضٌ يُغَطِّيهِ اَلشَّعْرُ هَلْ يَجُوزُ ذَلِكَ قَالَ« لاَ حَتَّى تَضَعَ جَبْهَتَهَا عَلَى اَلْأَرْضِ»
From him, from Al-Amraki from Ali ibn Ja'far from his brother (Imam) Musa ibn Ja'far عليه السلام, peace be upon them both, who said:
I asked Imam عليه السلام about a woman whose forelock grows long, so when she prostrates, part of her forehead touches the ground while part of it is covered by her hair, is that permissible? Imam عليه السلام said: "No, until she places her forehead fully upon the ground."
