اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ اَلنَّضْرِ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« قَالَ اَلنَّاسُ لِأَمِيرِ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَ لاَ تُخَلِّفُ رَجُلاً يُصَلِّي فِي اَلْعِيدَيْنِ فَقَالَ« لاَ أُخَالِفُ اَلسُّنَّةَ»»
Al-Husayn ibn Said from al-Nadr from Asim from Muhammad ibn Muslim from Abu Ja’far عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said:
Imam al-Baqir عليه السلام narrates: “The people said to the Commander of the Faithful عليه السلام, peace be upon him, ‘Will you not appoint a man to lead the prayer on the two Eids?’” Imam Ali عليه السلام said: “I will not go against the Sunnah.”
