Hadith 83

affliction Written (Decreed) except upon the Momineen? ’’[162]
Explanation – Perhaps something has been dropped from the speech, and in Al Tahzeeb, by another chain from Abdullah Bin Yazeed who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah-asws about the leper and the one with vitiligo leading the Muslims (in Salat). He-asws said: ‘Yes’. I said, ‘Does Allah‑azwj Try the Momin with these? ’ He-asws said: ‘Yes, and is the affliction Written (Decreed) except upon the Momin? ’’
(The book) ‘Al Mahasin’ – from his father, from Al Abbas Bin Marouf, from Ali Bin Mahziyar, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, and it is reported by my father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from one of our companions, ‘From one of the two (5th or 6th Imam-asws) regarding a traveller attaining the prayer leader and enters into Al Zohr Salat with him. He-asws said: ‘Let him make the first two (Cycles) as Al Zohr and the last two as the optional, and if it were to be Al Asr Salat, he should make the first two as optional and the last two as Al Asr’’. [163]
(The book) ‘Fiqh Al-Reza-asws’ – He-asws said: ‘If you were to lead the people (in Salat, do not prolong in your Salat and lighten. When you were to be alone, then make it as heavy as you like, for it is worship’.

And he-asws said: ‘When you come across the prayer leader and he is performing Ruk’u before the prayer leader raises his head, so you have attained the Cycle, but if the prayer leader raises his head before you perform Ruk’u, the Cycle has been missed out by you. If you find him to have prayed a Cycle, then stand with him in the second Cycle. When he sits, so be seated with him, and when he performs the second Cycle and it is the second for you, then be seated a little, then stand before he performs Ruk’u. When he sits in the fourth, then be seated with him. When the prayer leader performs Salaam, stand and pray the fourth’. And he-asws said: ‘Complete the rows when you see a gap in it, and it does not harm you if you were to go back behind you when you find constriction in the row, so you complete the row which is behind you and walk sideways’.
