What Can and Cannot Be Used for Prostration

840. hadíth

وَ رَوَى عَمَّارٌ اَلسَّابَاطِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «مَا بَيْنَ قُصَاصِ اَلشَّعْرِ إِلَى طَرَفِ اَلْأَنْفِ مَسْجِدٌ فَمَا أَصَابَ اَلْأَرْضَ مِنْهُ فَقَدْ أَجْزَأَكَ.

Ammar al-Sabati narrate from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (a.s) that He said: "The area between the hairline and the tip of the nose is considered a place of prostration (masjid), so whatever part of it touches the ground suffices."
