Chapter on the Manner of Prayer, Its Description and What is Obligatory and Recommended
أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ اَلرِّبَاطِيِّ عَنْ زَكَرِيَّا اَلْأَعْوَرِ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ أَبَا اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يُصَلِّي قَائِماً وَ إِلَى جَانِبِهِ رَجُلٌ كَبِيرٌ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَقُومَ وَ مَعَهُ عَصًا لَهُ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَتَنَاوَلَهَا فَانْحَطَّ أَبُو اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ هُوَ قَائِمٌ فِي صَلاَتِهِ فَنَاوَلَ اَلرَّجُلَ اَلْعَصَا ثُمَّ عَادَ إِلَى صَلاَتِهِ
Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub from Ali ibn Al-Hasan Al-Ribati from Zakariyya Al-A'war who said:
I saw Abu Al-Hasan عليه السلام, praying while standing, and next to Him عليه السلام was an elderly man who wanted to stand up and had a staff with him. He wanted to reach for it, so Abu Al-Hasan عليه السلام, bent down while he was still standing in his prayer and handed the man the staff, then returned to His عليه السلام prayer.
