2ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ وَأَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالاَ قُلْنَا لَهُ الرَّجُلُ يَشُكُّ كَثِيراً فِي صَلاَتِهِ حَتَّى لاَ يَدْرِيَ كَمْ صَلَّى وَلاَ مَا بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ يُعِيدُ قُلْنَا لَهُ فَإِنَّهُ يَكْثُرُ عَلَيْهِ ذَلِكَ كُلَّمَا عَادَ شَكَّ قَالَ يَمْضِي فِي شَكِّهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لاَ تُعَوِّدُوا الْخَبِيثَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ بِنَقْضِ الصَّلاَةِ فَتُطْمِعُوهُ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ خَبِيثٌ يَعْتَادُ لِمَا عُوِّدَ فَلْيَمْضِ أَحَدُكُمْ فِي الْوَهْمِ وَلاَ يُكْثِرَنَّ نَقْضَ الصَّلاَةِ فَإِنَّهُ إِذَا فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ مَرَّاتٍ لَمْ يَعُدْ إِلَيْهِ الشَّكُّ قَالَ زُرَارَةُ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّمَا يُرِيدُ الْخَبِيثُ أَنْ يُطَاعَ فَإِذَا عُصِيَ لَمْ يَعُدْ إِلَى أَحَدِكُمْ.
2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa and Muhammad ibn ’Isma‘il from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Hariz from Zurarah and abu Basir who have said the following: “We once asked him (the Imam) 
, about a man who doubts very often and does not know how many Rak‘at he has performed and how many Rak‘at remain. He (the Imam) said, ‘He performs again.’ We then asked, ‘It becomes a great many on him, because every time he performs again he doubts.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘He continues with his doubts.’ He (the Imam) then said, ‘You must not allow the filth to mix with your souls by discontinuing your Salah (prayer) to feed him. Satan, the filthy gets used to whatever habit he is allowed. One of you may continue with his guess and do not discontinue Salah (prayer) very often. If one does so several times, doubt does not return to him.’ Zurarah has said that he (the Imam) then said, ‘The filthy wants to be obeyed. If he is disobeyed, he does not come back to anyone of you.’”
