أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ اَلْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ مَعْرُوفٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ اَلصَّيْقَلِ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ مَا تَقُولُ فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يُصَلِّي وَ هُوَ يَنْظُرُ فِي اَلْمُصْحَفِ يَقْرَأُ فِيهِ يَضَعُ اَلسِّرَاجَ قَرِيباً مِنْهُ فَقَالَ« لاَ بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ»
Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa from Al-Abbas ibn Ma'ruf from Ali ibn Mahziyar from Fadalah ibn Ayyub from Aban ibn Uthman from Al-Hasan ibn Ziyad Al-Sayqal who said:
I said to Abu Abdillah عليه السلام: “What do you say about a man who is praying while looking into the Mushaf, reading from it, and placing a lamp close to him?” Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no problem with that."
