Chapter on the Virtue of Mosques and Prayer Within Them, and the Virtue of Congregational Prayer and Its Rulings
عَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَهْلٍ عَنِ اَلرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« اَلْإِمَامُ يَتَحَمَّلُ أَوْهَامَ مَنْ خَلْفَهُ إِلاَّ تَكْبِيرَةَ اَلاِفْتِتَاحِ»
From him, from Muhammad ibn Sahl from Imam al-Ridha عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said:
Imam al-Ridha عليه السلام said: “The imam (of prayer) bears the mistakes (or forgetfulness) of those behind him, except for the opening takbir (takbirat al-ihram).”
