1302. hadíth

1310 - وَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يَخْرُجُ إِلَى اَلصَّيْدِ مَسِيرَةَ يَوْمٍ أَوْ يَوْمَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاَثَةً أَ يُقَصِّرُ أَوْ يُتِمُّ فَقَالَ «إِنْ خَرَجَ لِقُوتِهِ وَ قُوتِ عِيَالِهِ فَلْيُقَصِّرْ وَ لْيُفْطِرْ وَ إِنْ خَرَجَ لِطَلَبِ اَلْفُضُولِ فَلاَ وَ لاَ كَرَامَةَ.

Hadith.1310 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) was asked regarding a man who goes out for hunting for a journey of one day, two days, or three days: "Should he shorten his prayers or complete them?" Imam (as) said: "If he goes out for his sustenance and the sustenance of his family, he should shorten his prayers and break his fast. But if he goes out seeking leisure or excess (unnecessary pursuit), then no, and it is not permissible."
