سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الْإِمَامِ يُصَلِّي بِأَرْبَعَةِ أَنْفُسٍ أَوْ خَمْسَةِ أَنْفُسٍ وَ يُسَبِّحُ اثْنَانِ عَلَى أَنَّهُمْ صَلَّوْا ثَلَاثاً وَ يُسَبِّحُ ثَلَاثَةٌ عَلَى أَنَّهُمْ صَلَّوْا أَرْبَعاً وَ يَقُولُ هَؤُلَاءِ قُومُوا وَ يَقُولُ هَؤُلَاءِ اقْعُدُوا وَ الْإِمَامُ مَائِلٌ مَعَ أَحَدِهِمَا أَوْ مُعْتَدِلُ الْوَهْمِ فَمَا يَجِبُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ لَيْسَ عَلَى الْإِمَامِ سَهْوٌ إِذَا حَفِظَ عَلَيْهِ مَنْ خَلْفَهُ سَهْوَهُ بِإِيقَانٍ مِنْهُمْ وَ لَيْسَ عَلَى مَنْ خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ سَهْوٌ إِذَا لَمْ يَسْهُ الْإِمَامُ وَ لَا سَهْوَ فِي سَهْوٍ وَ لَيْسَ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ وَ الْفَجْرِ سَهْوٌ وَ لَا فِي الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ الْأَوَّلَتَيْنِ مِنْ كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ وَ لَا فِي نَافِلَةٍ فَإِذَا اخْتَلَفَ عَلَى الْإِمَامِ مَنْ خَلْفَهُ فَعَلَيْهِ وَ عَلَيْهِمْ فِي الِاحْتِيَاطِ الْإِعَادَةُ وَ الْأَخْذُ بِالْجَزْمِ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Muhammad Bin Isa, from Yunus, from a man, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about the prayer leader praying with four persons or five persons, and two of them form a consensus upon that they had prayed three (<span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span>), and three form a consensus upon that they had prayed four (<span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span>), and these ones are saying, ‘Stand’, and those ones are saying, ‘Sit’, and the prayer leader is inclined with one of the two or is equal (with both) with the imagination. So what is Obligated upon him?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘There is no omission upon the prayer leader when the one behind him safeguards his omission; and there is no omission upon the one behind the prayer leader when the prayer leader does not omit; and there is no omission in an omission; and there is no omission in Al-Maghrib and Al-Fajr, nor in the first two <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span> from every <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>, nor in an optional (<span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>). So when there is a differing against the prayer leader by the ones behind him, so upon him and upon them in the precaution, the repeating, and taking by the surety’.
