Chapter on the Manner of Prayer, Its Description and What is Obligatory and Recommended
أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« إِنَّ عَلِيّاً عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ كَرِهَ تَنْظِيمَ اَلْحَصَى فِي اَلصَّلاَةِ وَ كَانَ يَكْرَهُ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ عَلَى قُصَاصِ شَعْرِهِ حَتَّى يُرْسِلَهُ إِرْسَالاً»
Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn Yahya from Talhah ibn Zayd from (Imam) Ja'far عليه السلام from his father عليه السلام, peace be upon them both: (Imam عليه السلام) said: "Indeed, (Imam) Ali عليه السلام, peace be upon him, disliked arranging the pebbles during the prayer, and He عليه السلام used to dislike that one should pray upon the hairline until he lets it fall naturally."
