Chapter on the Prayer During Travel

عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ اَلْحَجَّاجِ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ اَلْأَوَّلِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يُصَلِّي اَلنَّوَافِلَ فِي اَلْأَمْصَارِ وَ هُوَ عَلَى دَابَّتِهِ حَيْثُ تَوَجَّهَتْ بِهِ فَقَالَ« نَعَمْ لاَ بَأْسَ بِهِ»
Ali ibn Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abi Umayr, from Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Hajjaj, from Abu al-Hasan al-Awwal عليه السلام, peace be upon him: Imam al-Kadhim عليه السلام said regarding a man who performs supererogatory prayers (al-nawafil) in cities, while on his riding animal, in whatever direction it turns him. Imam عليه السلام said: “Yes, there is no harm in it.”
