Original Arabic text

10ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ أَ يَقْطَعُ صَلاَتَهُ شَيْ‏ءٌ مِمَّا يَمُرُّ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ لاَ يَقْطَعُ صَلاَةَ الْمُسْلِمِ شَيْ‏ءٌ وَلَكِنِ ادْرَأْ مَا اسْتَطَعْتَ قَالَ وَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ رَعَفَ فَلَمْ يَرْقَ رُعَافُهُ حَتَّى دَخَلَ وَقْتُ الصَّلاَةِ قَالَ يَحْشُو أَنْفَهُ بِشَيْ‏ءٍ ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي وَلاَ يُطِيلُ إِنْ خَشِيَ أَنْ يَسْبِقَهُ الدَّمُ قَالَ وَقَالَ إِذَا الْتَفَتَّ فِي صَلاَةٍ مَكْتُوبَةٍ مِنْ غَيْرِ فَرَاغٍ فَأَعِدِ الصَّلاَةَ إِذَا كَانَ الالْتِفَاتُ فَاحِشاً وَإِنْ كُنْتَ قَدْ تَشَهَّدْتَ فَلاَ تُعِدْ.

Published English translation

10. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hammad from al-Halabiy who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man whose Salah (prayer) is discontinued because of something passing in front of him. He (the Imam) said, ‘Salah (prayer) of a Muslim does not become discontinued by anything; however, protect as much as you can.’ He (the narrator) has said, ‘I then asked him (the Imam) about a man who experiences nose bleeding which does not stop until the time of Salah (prayer). He (the Imam) said, ‘He fills his nose up with something, then performs Salah (prayer), but does not take a long time if he fears bleeding.’ He (the narrator) has said that he (the Imam) said, ‘If he experiences nose bleeding in obligatory Salah (prayer) without break he performs his Salah (prayer) again if he has turned away from al-Qiblah (al-Ka’bah) before completing. If he has said Tashahhud (testimonies of belief), then he is not required to perform again.’”
