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

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ اَلْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَمَّنْ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «إِذَا كُنْتَ فِي صَلاَةِ اَلْفَرِيضَةِ فَرَأَيْتَ غُلاَماً لَكَ قَدْ أَبَقَ أَوْ غَرِيماً لَكَ عَلَيْهِ مَالٌ أَوْ حَيَّةً تَخَافُهَا عَلَى نَفْسِكَ فَاقْطَعِ اَلصَّلاَةَ وَاِتْبَعِ اَلْغُلاَمَ أَوْ غَرِيماً لَكَ وَ اُقْتُلِ اَلْحَيَّةَ»
Muhammad ibn Isma'il by Al-Fadl ibn Shadhan by Hammad by Hariz by someone from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام: (Imam عليه السلام) said: "If you are in obligatory prayer and you see your servant running away, or a debtor upon whom you have a debt, or a snake that you fear for yourself, then cut off the prayer and pursue your servant or your debtor and kill the snake."
