Chapter on the Prayer of the Naked

سَعْدٌ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ اَلنَّضْرِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ قَوْمٍ صَلَّوْا جَمَاعَةً وَ هُمْ عُرَاةٌ قَالَ« يَتَقَدَّمُهُمُ اَلْإِمَامُ بِرُكْبَتَيْهِ وَ يُصَلِّي بِهِمْ جُلُوساً وَ هُوَ جَالِسٌ»
Sa’ad from Abu Ja’far from al-Husayn ibn Said from al-Nadr ibn Suwayd from Abdillah ibn Sinan from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said: I asked Imam al-Sadiq عليه السلام about a group of people who prayed in congregation, while they were naked. Imam عليه السلام said: “The imam (of prayer) should go before them on his knees and lead them in prayer sitting, while he is also sitting.”
