Hadith.1038 - The Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) said: "The Messenger of Allah (sw) visited a man from the Ansar who was struck by a strong wind. The man asked: 'O’ Messenger of Allah (sw), how should I pray?' The Prophet (as) replied: 'If you are able to, seat him. If not, direct him towards the Qibla, and command him to gesture with his head (for prayer). Make his prostration lower than his bowing. If he is unable to recite (the Quran), then recite for him and make him listen.'"
1038 - وَقَالَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ اَلْأَنْصَارِ وَ قَدْ شَبَّكَتْهُ اَلرِّيحُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ كَيْفَ أُصَلِّي فَقَالَ» «إِنِ اِسْتَطَعْتُمْ أَنْ تُجْلِسُوهُ فَأَجْلِسُوهُ وَ إِلاَّ فَوَجِّهُوهُ إِلَى اَلْقِبْلَةِ وَ مُرُوهُ فَلْيُومِ بِرَأْسِهِ إِيمَاءً وَ يَجْعَلُ اَلسُّجُودَ أَخْفَضَ مِنَ اَلرُّكُوعِ وَ إِنْ كَانَ لاَ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ فَاقْرَءُوا عِنْدَهُ وَ أَسْمِعُوهُ.
