Chapter on What is Permissible and Impermissible to Pray in - of Clothing and Place
أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ اَلْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ اِبْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنِ اَلْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« لاَ بَأْسَ بِالصَّلاَةِ فِيمَا كَانَ مِنْ صُوفِ اَلْمَيْتَةِ إِنَّ اَلصُّوفَ لَيْسَ فِيهِ رُوحٌ» قَالَ عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ وَ حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ أَنَّ رَجُلاً سَأَلَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ أَنَا عِنْدَهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَتَقَلَّدُ اَلسَّيْفَ وَ يُصَلِّي فِيهِ قَالَ «نَعَمْ» فَقَالَ اَلرَّجُلُ إِنَّ فِيهِ اَلْكَيْمُخْتَ فَقَالَ« وَمَا اَلْكَيْمُخْتُ» فَقَالَ جُلُودُ دَوَابَّ مِنْهُ مَا يَكُونُ ذَكِيّاً وَمِنْهُ مَا يَكُونُ مَيْتَةً فَقَالَ« مَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّهُ مَيْتَةٌ فَلاَ تُصَلِّ فِيهِ»
Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from his father, from Abdullah ibn Al-Mughirah, from Abdullah ibn Muskan, from Al-Halabi:
Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: "There is no problem in praying in what is made from the wool of a carcass, for wool does not have a soul in it." Abdullah (ibn Muskan) said: “And Ali ibn Abi Hamzah narrated to me that a man asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, while I was with Imam عليه السلام, about a man who wears a sword around his neck and prays with it.” Imam عليه السلام said: "Yes." So the man said: “There is ‘kaymukht’ in it.” Imam عليه السلام said: "And what is ‘kaymukht’?" The man said: “Skins of animals, some of it is from a lawfully slaughtered animal, and some of it is from a carcass.” So Imam عليه السلام said: "What you know to be from a carcass, do not pray in it."
