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

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ اَلْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ:« إِذَا وَضَعْتَ جَبْهَتَكَ عَلَى نَبَكَةٍ فَلاَ تَرْفَعْهَا وَ لَكِنْ جُرَّهَا عَلَى اَلْأَرْضِ»
Muhammad ibn Isma'il from Al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from Safwan ibn Yahya from Mu'awiyah ibn Ammar, who said: Abu Abdillah عليه السلام said: "When you place your forehead upon a clod of earth, do not lift it, but rather drag it along the ground."
