وَ عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ اَلرَّجُلُ يُصَلِّي وَ هُوَ قَاعِدٌ فَيَقْرَأُ اَلسُّورَةَ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَخْتِمَهَا قَامَ فَرَكَعَ بِآخِرِهَا قَالَ« صَلاَتُهُ صَلاَةُ اَلْقَائِمِ»
And from him, from al-Husayn ibn Muhammad, from Abdullah ibn ‘Amir, from Ali ibn Mahziyar, from Fadalah, from Aban, from Zurarah, from Abu Ja’far عليه السلام, who said: I said to Him عليه السلام: “A man prays while sitting and recites a surah, then when he wishes to conclude it, he stands and bows (‘rak’ah’) at its end.” Imam عليه السلام said: "His prayer is considered the prayer of one who stands."
