Arabic text

وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ اَلْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ قُتَيْبَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« إِذَا كُنْتَ خَلْفَ إِمَامٍ تَرْتَضِي بِهِ فِي صَلاَةٍ يُجْهَرُ فِيهَا بِالْقِرَاءَةِ فَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ قِرَاءَتَهُ فَاقْرَأْ أَنْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ وَ إِنْ كُنْتَ تَسْمَعُ اَلْهَمْهَمَةَ فَلاَ تَقْرَأْ»

Translation

And from him, from Ali from his father from Abdillah ibn al-Mughirah from Qutaybah from Abi Abdillah (a.s), peace be upon him, who said: Imam al-Sadiq (a.s) said: “If you are behind an imam (of prayer) whom you are pleased with, in a prayer in which the recitation is done aloud, and you do not hear his recitation, then recite for yourself. But if you hear the murmuring sound (hammhamah), then do not recite.”

Translation: Haydar Ali Shaykh ibn Muhammad — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
