Hadith.5378 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) was asked about a man who was killed and whose body parts were found scattered. How should the funeral prayer be performed for him? Imam (as) said: "The prayer should be performed over the part that contains his heart."
5378 - وَ سُئِلَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : عَنْ رَجُلٍ قُتِلَ وَ وُجِدَ أَعْضَاؤُهُ مُتَفَرِّقَةً كَيْفَ يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ قَالَ "يُصَلَّى عَلَى اَلَّذِي فِيهِ قَلْبُهُ".
