وَ عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلنَّضْرِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ حُمَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَرْفَعُ مَوْضِعَ جَبْهَتِهِ فِي اَلْمَسْجِدِ فَقَالَ« إِنِّي أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَضَعَ وَجْهِي فِي مَوْضِعِ قَدَمِي وَ كَرِهَهُ»
And from him, from al-Nadr ibn Suwayd, from ‘Asim ibn Humayd, from Abu Basir, who said: I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام about a man who raises the place of his forehead in the mosque (during prostration). Imam عليه السلام said: “I like to place my face where my feet stand,” and He عليه السلام disliked (raising it).
