رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي قَوْمٍ خَرَجُوا مِنْ خُرَاسَانَ أَوْ بَعْضِ اَلْجِبَالِ وَ كَانَ يَؤُمُّهُمْ رَجُلٌ فَلَمَّا صَارُوا إِلَى اَلْكُوفَةِ عَلِمُوا أَنَّهُ يَهُودِيٌّ قَالَ« لاَ يُعِيدُونَ»
Muhammad ibn Yaqub narrated from Ali ibn Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abi Umayr, from some of our companions, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him:
Imam al-Sadiq عليه السلام was asked regarding a group who had departed from Khurasan or from some of the mountainous regions, and a man was leading them in prayer. When they reached Kufah, they came to know that he was a Jew. Imam عليه السلام said: “They do not have to repeat (their prayers).”
