1337 - وَ سَأَلَ سَمَاعَةُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَلْقَاهُ اَلسَّبُعُ وَ قَدْ حَضَرَتِ اَلصَّلاَةُ فَلاَ يَسْتَطِيعُ اَلْمَشْيَ مَخَافَةَ اَلْأَسَدِ قَالَ «يَسْتَقْبِلُ اَلْأَسَدَ وَ يُصَلِّي وَ يُومِئُ بِرَأْسِهِ إِيمَاءً وَ هُوَ قَائِمٌ وَ إِنْ كَانَ اَلْأَسَدُ عَلَى غَيْرِ اَلْقِبْلَةِ.
Hadith.1337 - Sama'a ibn Mehran asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq about a man who encounters a wild beast, and the time for prayer has arrived, but he cannot walk due to fear of the lion.
Imam
said: "He should face the lion and perform the prayer, gesturing with his head while standing, even if the lion is not in the direction of the Qibla."
