قُلْتُ لَهُ أَ رَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنِ الْمُوَاقِفُ عَلَى وُضُوءٍ كَيْفَ يَصْنَعُ وَ لَا يَقْدِرُ عَلَى النُّزُولِ قَالَ يَتَيَمَّمُ مِنْ لِبْدِهِ أَوْ سَرْجِهِ أَوْ مَعْرَفَةِ دَابَّتِهِ فَإِنَّ فِيهَا غُبَاراً وَ يُصَلِّي وَ يَجْعَلُ السُّجُودَ أَخْفَضَ مِنَ الرُّكُوعِ وَ لَا يَدُورُ إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ وَ لَكِنْ أَيْنَمَا دَارَتْ دَابَّتُهُ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ يَسْتَقْبِلُ الْقِبْلَةَ بِأَوَّلِ تَكْبِيرَةٍ حِينَ يَتَوَجَّهُ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Ahmad, from Hammad, from Hareyz, from Zurara, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I said to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘What is your<sup>asws</sup> view if there do not happen to be soldier covering the position does not happen to be upon an ablution. What should he do and he is not able upon the dismounting?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He can perform <span class="iTxt">Tayammum</span> from his pad, or his saddle, or the mane of his animal, for there would be dust therein; and he can pray <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> and make the <span class="iTxt">Sajdah</span> to be lower than the <span class="iTxt">Rukū</span>, and he would not turn towards the Qiblah, but in whichever direction his animal turns, apart from that he should face the Qiblah with the first exclamation of <span class="iTxt">Takbīr</span> where he was attentive’.
