Chapter on the Prayer During Travel

عَنْهُ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ بَكْرٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« إِذَا نَسِيَ اَلرَّجُلُ صَلاَةً أَوْ صَلاَّهَا بِغَيْرِ طَهُورٍ وَ هُوَ مُقِيمٌ أَوْ مُسَافِرٌ فَذَكَرَهَا فَلْيَقْضِ اَلَّذِي وَجَبَ عَلَيْهِ لاَ يَزِيدُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَ لاَ يَنْقُصُ مَنْ نَسِيَ أَرْبَعاً فَلْيَقْضِ أَرْبَعاً مُسَافِراً كَانَ أَوْ مُقِيماً وَ إِنْ نَسِيَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ صَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ إِذَا ذَكَرَ مُسَافِراً كَانَ أَوْ مُقِيماً»
From him, from Fadala ibn Ayyub, from Musa ibn Bakr, from Zurarah, from Abu Ja’far عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said: Imam al-Baqir عليه السلام said: “If a man forgets a prayer or performs it without purification (tahur), while he is residing or traveling, then remembers it. He must make up what was obligatory upon him, he should neither increase upon that nor decrease. Whoever forgets four (units) must make up four (units), whether he was traveling or residing. And if he forgets two (units), he should perform two (units) when he remembers, whether he was traveling or residing.”
