Chapter on the Prayer During Travel

فَأَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَتَصَيَّدُ فَقَالَ« إِنْ كَانَ يَدُورُ حَوْلَهُ فَلاَ يُقَصِّرُ وَ إِنْ كَانَ يُجَاوِزُ اَلْوَقْتَ فَلْيُقَصِّرْ»
As for what was narrated by Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Mahbub from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from Safwan from Abdillah, who said: I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about a man who goes hunting. Imam عليه السلام said: “If he moves about within his vicinity, then he should not shorten (the prayer); but if he goes beyond the distance (that defines the time limit), then let him shorten (the prayer).”
