Arabic text

12 - حدثنا محمد بن الحسن (رحمه الله)، قال: حدثنا الحسين بن الحسن ابن أبان، عن الحسين بن سعيد، عن حماد بن عيسى، عن حريز بن عبد الله، عن أبي أسامة زيد الشحام أو غيره، قال: صعدت مرة جبل أبي قبيس والناس يصلون المغرب، فرأيت الشمس لم تغب، وإنما توارت خلف الجبل عن الناس، فلقيت أبا عبد الله الصادق (عليه السلام) فأخبرته بذلك، فقال لي: ولم فعلت ذلك؟ بئس ما صنعت، إنما تصليها إذا لم ترها خلف جبل غابت أو غارت، ما لم يتجللها سحاب أو ظلمة تظلها، فإنما عليك مشرقك ومغربك، وليس على الناس أن يبحثوا (4).

Translation

Muhammad b. al-Hasan (rh) narrated to us. He said: Al-Husayn b. al-Hasan b. Aban narrated to us from al-Husayn b. Sa`id from Hamad b. `Isa from Hariz b. `Abdullah from Abi Aslama Zayd al-Shahham or someone else. He said: I climbed the mountain of Abi Qubays, and the people were praying Maghrib, yet I saw that the Sun had not set, but rather it was hidden behind the mountain from the people. So, I met Aba `Abdillah al-Sadiq (as), and I informed him of that. So, he said to me: Why did you do that? Woe to what you did. Rather, pray [even] if you do not see it [and it is] behind a mountain, whether it has [fully] set, so long that it is not covered by a cloud or darkened by a darkness. Surely, you must take to your [own] sunrise and sunset [from your own perspective]; and the people do not have to go searching.
