Hadith 1426
۞
Hadith.1430 - Murazim ibn Hakim al-Azdi narrated that He said:
"
I was ill for four months and did not perform any of the supererogatory (nafilah) prayers during that time. I mentioned this to Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as)
Imam (as) said: 'There is no obligation on you to make them up; indeed, the condition of the sick is not like that of the healthy. Whatever overwhelms you, Allah (swt) is more deserving of offering an excuse for it.'".
1430 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ مُرَازِمِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ اَلْأَزْدِيِّ
أَنَّهُ قَالَ: كُنْتُ مَرِضْتُ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ لَمْ أُصَلِّ نَافِلَةً فِيهَا فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِنِّي مَرِضْتُ أَرْبَعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ لَمْ أُصَلِّ نَافِلَةً فَقَالَ
«لَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ قَضَاءٌ إِنَّ اَلْمَرِيضَ لَيْسَ كَالصَّحِيحِ كُلُّ مَا غَلَبَ اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ فَاللَّهُ أَوْلَى بِالْعُذْرِ فِيهِ.
