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

عَنْهُ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ اَلْقَاسِمِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَخِيهِ مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَكُونُ فِي صَلاَتِهِ فَيَسْتَأْذِنُ إِنْسَانٌ عَلَى اَلْبَابِ فَيُسَبِّحُ وَ يَرْفَعُ صَوْتَهُ وَ يُسْمِعُ جَارِيَتَهُ فَتَأْتِيهِ فَيُرِيهَا بِيَدِهِ أَنَّ عَلَى اَلْبَابِ إِنْسَاناً هَلْ يَقْطَعُ ذَلِكَ صَلاَتَهُ وَ مَا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ« لاَ بَأْسَ لاَ يَقْطَعُ ذَلِكَ صَلاَتَهُ»
From him from Musa ibn Al-Qasim from Ali ibn Ja'far from his brother (Imam) Musa عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said: I asked Imam عليه السلام about a man who is in his prayer and someone seeks permission at the door, so he glorifies (says tasbih) and raises his voice and lets his servant girl hear, and she comes to him, and he gestures with his hand to show her that there is someone at the door, does that action invalidate his prayer and what is required of him? Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no harm; that does not invalidate his prayer."
