11. Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from al-Husayn ibn Sa’id from Fadalah from Aban from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn abu ‘Abd Allah from Humran from who has said the following
“One of the two Imam, (abu Ja’far or abu ‘Abd Allah), ‘Alayhim al-Salam, has said, ’My father would perform Sajdah (prostration) on a prayer mat. He would place it on Tanfash (carpet) and perform Sajdah (prostration) on it. If there was no prayer mat, he placed pebbles on Tanfash and performed Sajdah (prostration) on it.’”
11ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله عَنْ حُمْرَانَ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا (عَلَيْهِما الْسَّلام) قَالَ
كَانَ أَبِي (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) يُصَلِّي عَلَى الْخُمْرَةِ يَجْعَلُهَا عَلَى الطِّنْفِسَةِ وَيَسْجُدُ عَلَيْهَا فَإِذَا لَمْ تَكُنْ خُمْرَةٌ جُعِلَ حَصًى عَلَى الطِّنْفِسَةِ حَيْثُ يَسْجُدُ.
