٢ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلاَّنٍ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى وَصَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ رِبْعِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ الله عَنْ فُضَيْلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ إِنَّ مِنَ الأشْيَاءِ أَشْيَاءَ مُوَسَّعَةً وَأَشْيَاءَ مُضَيَّقَةً فَالصَّلاَةُ مِمَّا وُسِّعَ فِيهِ تُقَدَّمُ مَرَّةً وَتُؤَخَّرُ أُخْرَى وَالْجُمُعَةُ مِمَّا ضُيِّقَ فِيهَا فَإِنَّ وَقْتَهَا يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ سَاعَةُ تَزُولُ وَوَقْتَ الْعَصْرِ فِيهَا وَقْتُ الظُّهْرِ فِي غَيْرِهَا.
2. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Muhammad ibn al-Hassan ibn ‘Allan from Hammad ibn ‘Isa and from Safwan ibn Yahya from Rib‘i ibn ‘Abd Allah from al-Fudayl ibn Yasar who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far , has said, ‘Of the things certain ones are of a longer timing and others are of shorter timing. Salah (prayer) is of longer timing. It can be performed earlier and later. Friday Salah (prayer) is of a short timing. On Friday its time is a Sa‘ah which then vanish. The time for al-‘Asr Salah (prayer) on Friday is the time for al-Dhuhr on other days.’”
