عَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ اَلْحَكَمِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلصَّلاَةِ فِي اَلسَّفِينَةِ فَقَالَ« إِنَّ رَجُلاً سَأَلَ أَبِي عَنِ اَلصَّلاَةِ فِي اَلسَّفِينَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ« أَتَرْغَبُ عَنْ صَلاَةِ نُوحٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ»» فَقُلْتُ لَهُ آخُذُ مَعِي مَدَرَةً أَسْجُدُ عَلَيْهَا فَقَالَ« نَعَمْ»
From him, from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from Ja’far ibn Bashir from Salih ibn al-Hakam who said:
I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about prayer on a ship. Imam عليه السلام said: “A man asked my father (Imam al-Baqir عليه السلام) about prayer on a ship, and Imam عليه السلام said to him: ‘Do you turn away from the prayer of Nuh عليه السلام, peace be upon him?’” So I asked the Imam عليه السلام: “Shall I take with me a clod of earth to prostrate on?” Imam عليه السلام said: “Yes.”
