Chapter on the Virtue of Mosques and Prayer Within Them, and the Virtue of Congregational Prayer and Its Rulings

أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ اَلْجَهْمِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ اَلرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يُصَلِّي بِالْقَوْمِ فِي مَكَانٍ ضَيِّقٍ وَ يَكُونُ بَيْنَهُمْ وَ بَيْنَهُ سِتْرٌ يَجُوزُ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ بِهِمْ قَالَ« نَعَمْ»
Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Faddal from al-Hasan ibn al-Jahm who said: I asked Imam al-Ridha عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about a man who leads a group in prayer in a narrow place and there is a curtain between him and them. Does it suffice for him to lead them in prayer? Imam عليه السلام said: “Yes.”
