اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ أَعْيَنَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلنَّاصِبِ يَؤُمُّنَا مَا تَقُولُ فِي اَلصَّلاَةِ مَعَهُ فَقَالَ« أَمَّا إِذَا هُوَ جَهَرَ فَأَنْصِتْ لِلْقُرْآنِ وَ اِسْمَعْ ثُمَّ اِرْكَعْ وَ اُسْجُدْ أَنْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ»
Al-Husayn ibn Said from Safwan from Abdillah ibn Bukayr from his father, Bukayr ibn Ayan, who said:
I asked Aba Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about a nasib (person with known enmity of the Ahlulbayt عليه السلام) leading us in prayer what do you say about praying with him? Imam عليه السلام said: “As for when he recites aloud, then listen to the Qur’an and hear it, then perform the bowing and prostration yourself, for your own self.”
