عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُصَدِّقِ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ مُوسَى اَلسَّابَاطِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ هَلْ يَؤُمُّ اَلرَّجُلُ بِأَهْلِهِ فِي صَلاَةِ اَلْعِيدَيْنِ فِي اَلسَّطْحِ أَوْ بَيْتٍ قَالَ« لاَ يَؤُمُّ بِهِنَّ وَ لاَ يَخْرُجْنَ وَ لَيْسَ عَلَى اَلنِّسَاءِ خُرُوجٌ» وَ قَالَ« أَقِلُّوا لَهُنَّ مِنَ اَلْهَيْئَةِ حَتَّى لاَ يَسْأَلْنَ اَلْخُرُوجَ»
From him, from Ahmad ibn al-Hasan, from Amr ibn Sa'id, from Musaddiq ibn Sadaqah, from Ammar ibn Musa al-Sabati, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said:
I said to Imam al-Sadiq عليه السلام: “May a man lead his family in the prayer of the two Eids on the rooftop or in a house?” Imam عليه السلام said: “He should not lead them, and they should not go out, and it is not obligatory upon women to go out.” And Imam عليه السلام said: “Minimize for them the appearance (of preparation), so that they do not ask to go out.”
