سَعْدٌ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ: أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ أَوْ سُئِلَ أَ يُصَلِّي اَلرَّجُلُ وَ هُوَ جَالِسٌ مُتَرَبِّعاً وَ مَبْسُوطَ اَلرِّجْلَيْنِ فَقَالَ« لاَ بَأْسَ»
Sa’d, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from Ibn Abi Nasr, from Hammad ibn Uthman, from Mu’awiyah ibn Maysarah: That he (narrator) heard Abu Abdillah عليه السلام say, or He عليه السلام was asked: “Whether a man may pray while sitting cross-legged (‘mutarabbi’an’) or with his legs stretched out.” Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no harm."
