وَ أَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ يَؤُمُّ بِقَوْمٍ فَيُصَلِّي اَلْعَصْرَ وَ هِيَ لَهُمُ اَلظُّهْرُ قَالَ« أَجْزَأَتْ عَنْهُ وَ أَجْزَأَتْ عَنْهُمْ»
As for what was narrated by al-Husayn ibn Said from Hammad ibn Uthman, he said:
I asked Aba Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about a man who leads a group in prayer, and he is praying Asr, while for them it is Dhuhr. Imam عليه السلام said: “It is valid for him, and it is valid for them.”
