Chapter on What is Permissible and Impermissible to Pray in - of Clothing and Place
سَعْدٌ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ جَبَلَةَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَوْمٌ قُطِعَ عَلَيْهِمُ اَلطَّرِيقُ فَأُخِذَتْ ثِيَابُهُمْ فَبَقُوا عُرَاةً وَحَضَرَتِ اَلصَّلاَةُ كَيْفَ يَصْنَعُونَ فَقَالَ« يَتَقَدَّمُهُمْ إِمَامُهُمْ فَيَجْلِسُ وَ يَجْلِسُونَ خَلْفَهُ فَيُومِئُ إِيمَاءً بِالرُّكُوعِ وَ اَلسُّجُودِ وَ هُمْ يَرْكَعُونَ وَ يَسْجُدُونَ خَلْفَهُ عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ»
Sa‘d, from Muhammad ibn Al-Husayn, from Abdullah ibn Jabalah, from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar, said:
I said to Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him: “A group of people were ambushed on the road, and their clothes were taken from them, so they remained naked, and the time of prayer arrived, what should they do?” Imam عليه السلام said: "Their imam (of prayer) should go ahead of them and sit, and they should sit behind him. He should gesture with signs for bowing and prostration, and they should perform bowing and prostration behind him by placing their faces on the ground."
