وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَجُلٌ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ اَلسُّجُودِ فَشَكَّ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَسْتَوِيَ جَالِساً فَلَمْ يَدْرِ أَ سَجَدَ أَمْ لَمْ يَسْجُدْ قَالَ «يَسْجُدُ» قُلْتُ فَرَجُلٌ نَهَضَ مِنْ سُجُودِهِ فَشَكَّ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَسْتَوِيَ قَائِماً فَلَمْ يَدْرِ أَ سَجَدَ أَمْ لَمْ يَسْجُدْ قَالَ« يَسْجُدُ»
And from him, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from Ibn Abi Nasr, from Aban ibn Uthman, from Abdur Rahman ibn Abi Abdullah, who said: I said to Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him: “A man raised his head from prostration and doubted before he became fully seated, not knowing whether he had prostrated or not.” Imam عليه السلام said: "He should prostrate." I asked: “And a man who rose from his prostration and doubted before he became fully standing, not knowing whether he had prostrated or not.” Imam عليه السلام said: "He should prostrate."
