13. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from Fadalah ibn Ayyub from Dawud ibn Farqad who has said the following
“I asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the words of Allah, ‘Salah (prayer) was made obligatory in designated times’ (4:105). The Imam replied, It is an established obligation. If you performed earlier or delayed a little, it is not harmful as long as you did not lose them altogether. Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, says about a people, “They lost Salah (prayer) and followed their lustful desires so they face deviation” (19:60).’”
13ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ فَرْقَدٍ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَوْلُهُ تَعَالَى إِنَّ الصَّلاةَ كانَتْ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ كِتاباً مَوْقُوتاً قَالَ كِتَاباً ثَابِتاً وَلَيْسَ إِنْ عَجَّلْتَ قَلِيلاً أَوْ أَخَّرْتَ قَلِيلاً بِالَّذِي يَضُرُّكَ مَا لَمْ تُضَيِّعْ تِلْكَ الإِضَاعَةَ فَإِنَّ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَقُولُ لِقَوْمٍ أَضاعُوا الصَّلاةَ وَاتَّبَعُوا الشَّهَواتِ فَسَوْفَ يَلْقَوْنَ غَيًّا.
