Chapter on the Prayer of Fear
Tahdhīb al-Aḥkām|Volume 3|Book 2|Chapter 7
اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْمِعْزَى عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ لَوْ رَأَيْتَنِي وَ أَنَا بِشَطِّ اَلْفُرَاتِ أُصَلِّي وَ أَنَا أَخَافُ اَلسَّبُعَ فَقَالَ لِي« أَ فَلاَ صَلَّيْتَ وَ أَنْتَ رَاكِبٌ»
Al-Husayn ibn Sa’id from Fadalah from Abu al-Mi‘za from Abu Basir who said:
I said to Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him: “What if you saw me at the bank of the Euphrates, praying while I am afraid of a wild beast?” Imam عليه السلام said to me: “Should you not have prayed while you were mounted?”
