Chapter on Ruling of the Traveller and the Sick Person Regarding Fasting
عَلِيُّ بْنُ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ اَلْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:» سَبْعَةٌ لاَ يُقَصِّرُونَ اَلصَّلاَةَ اَلْأَمِيرُ اَلَّذِي يَدُورُ فِي إِمَارَتِهِ وَاَلْجَبَّاءُ اَلَّذِي يَدُورُ فِي جِبَايَتِهِ وَاَلتَّاجِرُ اَلَّذِي يَدُورُ فِي تِجَارَتِهِ مِنْ سُوقٍ إِلَى سُوقٍ وَاَلْبَدَوِيُّ اَلَّذِي يَطْلُبُ مَوَاضِعَ اَلْقَطْرِ وَمَنْبِتَ اَلشَّجَرِ وَاَلرَّاعِي وَاَلْمُحَارِبُ اَلَّذِي يَخْرُجُ لِقَطْعِ اَلسَّبِيلِ وَ اَلَّذِي يَطْلُبُ اَلصَّيْدَ يُرِيدُ بِهِ لَهْوَ اَلدُّنْيَا«.
Ali ibn al-Hasan ibn Faddal, from Amr ibn Uthman, from Abdullah ibn al-Mughirah, from Ismail ibn Abi Ziyad, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, from his father عليه السلام, peace be upon him, from Imam Ali عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said:
Imam Ali عليه السلام said: “Seven do not shorten the prayer: The commander who travels around within his command, The tax-collector (al-jabba) who travels around in his collection, The merchant who travels around in his trade from market to market, The Bedouin who seeks the places of rain and the growth of trees, The shepherd, The warrior who goes out to cut off the road, And the one who seeks hunting, intending by it the amusement of this world.”
