اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ حُمْرَانَ بْنِ أَعْيَنَ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« كَانَ أَبِي إِذَا صَلَّى جَالِساً تَرَبَّعَ فَإِذَا رَكَعَ ثَنَى رِجْلَيْهِ»
Al-Husayn ibn Sa’id, from Fadalah, from Aban, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Abdillah, from Humran ibn A’yan, from one of the two (Imams عليه السلام), peace be upon them, who said:
(Imam عليه السلام said) "My father, when He عليه السلام prayed sitting, would sit cross-legged (‘tarrabba’a’), and when He عليه السلام bowed, he would fold his legs."
