Chapter on What is Permissible and Impermissible to Pray in - of Clothing and Place

عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ اَلْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَخُوضُ اَلْمَاءَ فَتُدْرِكُهُ اَلصَّلاَةُ فَقَالَ« إِنْ كَانَ فِي حَرْبٍ فَإِنَّهُ يُجْزِيهِ اَلْإِيمَاءُ وَإِنْ كَانَ تَاجِراً فَلْيُقِمْ وَلاَ يَدْخُلُهُ حَتَّى يُصَلِّيَ»
Ali, from his father, from Ibn Abi Umayr, from Hammad, from Al-Halabi, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: I asked Imam عليه السلام about a man who wades into water and the time of prayer comes upon him. Imam عليه السلام said: "If he is in battle, then gesturing suffices him; But if he is a merchant, then let him stop and not enter (the water) until he has prayed."
