27. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated through his chain of narrators from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Murazim ibn Hakim who has said the following: “I accompanied Muhammad ibn Musadif and when we arrived in al-Madinah, I became ill. He would go to the Masjid and leave me alone. I complained about it before Musadif and he informed abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about it. He (the Imam) sent him the answer, ‘Your sitting with him is better than your performing salat (prayer) in the Masjid. ‘“
