سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْخَوْفِ قَالَ يَقُومُ الْإِمَامُ وَ تَجِيءُ طَائِفَةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَيَقُومُونَ خَلْفَهُ وَ طَائِفَةٌ بِإِزَاءِ الْعَدُوِّ فَيُصَلِّي بِهِمُ الْإِمَامُ رَكْعَةً ثُمَّ يَقُومُ وَ يَقُومُونَ مَعَهُ فَيَمْثُلُ قَائِماً وَ يُصَلُّونَ هُمُ الرَّكْعَةَ الثَّانِيَةَ ثُمَّ يُسَلِّمُ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ ثُمَّ يَنْصَرِفُونَ فَيَقُومُونَ فِي مَقَامِ أَصْحَابِهِمْ وَ يَجِيءُ الْآخَرُونَ فَيَقُومُونَ خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ فَيُصَلِّي بِهِمُ الرَّكْعَةَ الثَّانِيَةَ ثُمَّ يَجْلِسُ الْإِمَامُ فَيَقُومُونَ هُمْ فَيُصَلُّونَ رَكْعَةً أُخْرَى ثُمَّ يُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِمْ فَيَنْصَرِفُونَ بِتَسْلِيمِهِ قَالَ وَ فِي الْمَغْرِبِ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ يَقُومُ الْإِمَامُ وَ تَجِيءُ طَائِفَةٌ فَيَقُومُونَ خَلْفَهُ ثُمَّ يُصَلِّي بِهِمْ رَكْعَةً ثُمَّ يَقُومُ وَ يَقُومُونَ فَيَمْثُلُ الْإِمَامُ قَائِماً وَ يُصَلُّونَ الرَّكْعَتَيْنِ فَيَتَشَهَّدُونَ وَ يُسَلِّمُ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ ثُمَّ يَنْصَرِفُونَ فَيَقُومُونَ فِي مَوْقِفِ أَصْحَابِهِمْ وَ يَجِيءُ الْآخَرُونَ وَ يَقُومُونَ خَلْفَ الْإِمَامِ فَيُصَلِّي بِهِمْ رَكْعَةً يَقْرَأُ فِيهَا ثُمَّ يَجْلِسُ فَيَتَشَهَّدُ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ وَ يَقُومُونَ مَعَهُ وَ يُصَلِّي بِهِمْ رَكْعَةً أُخْرَى ثُمَّ يَجْلِسُ وَ يَقُومُونَ هُمْ فَيُتِمُّونَ رَكْعَةً أُخْرَى ثُمَّ يُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِمْ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Hammad, from Al-Halby who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> during the fear. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The prayer leader would be standing, and a group of his companions would come and be standing behind him, and a group would be facing the enemy, So the prayer leader would pray <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> with them (leading them), for one <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span>. Then he would be standing and they would be standing along with him. So he would represent them standing, and they would be in the second <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span>. Then they would be greeting each other (<span class="iTxt">Salaam</span>), then they would be dispersing. So they would be going to stand in the place of their companions, and the other ones would be coming and standing behind the prayer leader. So he would pray the second Rak’at with them. Then the prayer leader would be seated, and they would be standing, praying another <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span> of <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span>. The he would greet upon them (<span class="iTxt">Salaam</span>), and they would be dispersing by his greeting (<span class="iTxt">Salaam</span>)’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘And during <span class="iTxt">Al-Maghrib </span>(Salāt), it is similar to that. The prayer leader would be standing and a group would come, so they would be standing behind him. Then he would pray <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> with them (leading them) for one <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span>, and they would be standing. So the prayer leader would represent them standing, and they would be praying the two <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span>. So they would be performing the <span class="iTxt">Tashahhud</span>, and some of the would say <span class="iTxt">Salām</span> upon the other. Then they would dispersing, and be standing in the place of their companions, and the others would come and they would be standing behind the prayer leader. So he would pray <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> with them (leading them), reciting therein, then be seated. So he would perform <span class="iTxt">Tashahhud</span>, then he would be standing and they would be standing along with him, and he would pray another <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span> with them. Then he would be seated, and they would be standing, so they would be completing one more <span class="iTxt">Rak’at</span>. Then he would say <span class="iTxt">Salām</span> upon them’.
