The Exceptional Narrations — Hadith 4

4. My father narrated to me from Muḥammad ibn Yaḥyā, from Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad, from Muḥammad ibn Ismā’īl ibn Bazī’, from one of his companions, who narrated from someone who said: I said to Abī ‘Abdillāh (Imam Sādiq (a. s. )): Sometimes when we are in Makkah, Madīnah, Ḥā`ir, or any other sacred place and we are sitting in a specific spot, we have to leave our spot to perform Wuďū, and while we are gone, someone else comes and sits in our spot. Imam (a. s. ) replied, “Those who arrive first at a (particular) spot have more right to that spot than others for that entire day and night. ”
