مَا رَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْفَضْلِ اَلنَّحْوِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ اَلْأَحْوَلِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلنُّعْمَانِ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ:« إِذَا كُنْتَ صَلَّيْتَ أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ مِنْ صَلاَةِ اَللَّيْلِ قَبْلَ طُلُوعِ اَلْفَجْرِ فَأَتِمَّ اَلصَّلاَةَ طَلَعَ أَمْ لَمْ يَطْلُعْ»
What was narrated by Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya, from Muhammad ibn Isma‘il, from Ali ibn al-Hakam, from Abu al-Fadl al-Nahwi, from Abu Ja‘far al-Ahwal Muhammad ibn al-Nu‘man. He said: Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, said: “If you have prayed four rak‘ahs of the night prayer before the rising of dawn, then complete the prayer, whether dawn has risen or not.”
