Chapter on the Prayer of Fear

Sa’ad from Ahmad from Ali ibn Hadid and Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Najran from Hammad from Hariz from Zurarah who said: I asked Abu Ja’far عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about the prayer of ‘al Khawf’ (prayer of fear) and the prayer of travel, Are both to be shortened? Imam عليه السلام said: “Yes, and the prayer of ‘al Khawf’ (prayer of fear) has more right to be shortened than the prayer of travel, in which there is no fear.”
