Arabic text

وروى محمد بن أحمد بن يحيى الاشعري عن العباس بن معروف عن صفوان بن يحيى عن اسحاق بن عمار عن إسماعيل الجعفي عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال: كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله إذا كان فئ الجدار ذراعا صلى الظهر وإذا كان ذراعين صلى العصر قال قلت: ان الجدار يختلف بعضها قصير وبعضها طويل فقال: كان جدار مسجد النبي صلى الله عليه وآله يومئذ قامة

Translation

Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya al-Ash’ari narrated from al-Abbas ibn Ma’ruf, from Safwan ibn Yahya, from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar, from Isma’il al-Ju’fi, from Abu Ja’far (a.s), who said: (Imam (a.s) said) “The Messenger of Allah (swt), may Allah (swt) bless him and his family, when the shadow of the wall reached one forearm, He (saws) would pray Dhuhr, and when it reached two forearms, He (saws) would pray ‘Asr.” I asked: “The walls differ, some are short and some are tall.” Imam (a.s) said: “The wall of the Prophet’s mosque, may Allah (swt) bless him and his family, at that time was one man's height.”
