Chapter on the Prayer of the Drowning Person, the One Who Is Alone, and the One in Necessity, and Other Such Cases
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي قَوْلِ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ« اَلَّذِينَ يَذْكُرُونَ اَللّٰهَ قِيٰاماً» قَالَ« اَلصَّحِيحُ يُصَلِّي قَائِماً« وَ قُعُوداً» اَلْمَرِيضُ يُصَلِّي جَالِساً« وَ عَلىٰ جُنُوبِهِمْ» اَلَّذِي يَكُونُ أَضْعَفَ مِنَ اَلْمَرِيضِ اَلَّذِي يُصَلِّي جَالِساً»
Muhammad ibn Ya‘qub by Ali from his father from al-Hasan ibn Mahbub from Abu Hamzah by Abu Ja’far عليه السلام:
Imam al-Baqir عليه السلام was asked regarding the saying of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Mighty and Majestic: “Those who remember Allah سبحانه وتعالى standing” (Surah Aal Imran 3:191) Imam عليه السلام said: “The healthy one prays ‘standing’. ‘And sitting’ (Surah Aal Imran 3:191), for the sick person prays sitting. ‘And on their sides’ (Surah Aal Imran 3:191), for the one who is weaker than the sick person who prays sitting.”
