Chapter on the Prayer During Pursuit and Sword Fighting

وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ اَلْمُغِيرَةِ وَ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ نُوحٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ اَلْمُغِيرَةِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« أَقَلُّ مَا يُجْزِي فِي حَدِّ اَلْمُسَايَفَةِ مِنَ اَلتَّكْبِيرِ تَكْبِيرَتَانِ لِكُلِّ صَلاَةٍ إِلاَّ صَلاَةَ اَلْمَغْرِبِ فَإِنَّ لَهَا ثَلاَثاً»
And from him, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from his father from Abdillah ibn al-Mughirah, and from Ayyub ibn Nuh from Abdillah ibn al-Mughirah. He said: One of our companions narrated to me from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said: Imam al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: “The minimum that suffices in the case of close combat (musayafah), in terms of takbir, is two takbirs for each prayer except for the Maghrib prayer, for it requires three.”
