7. It is a narration from him (narrator of previous Hadith) by Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hammad from al-Halabiy who has said the following
“Once abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), was asked about one who, while in Salah (prayer), needs something. He (the Imam) said, ‘He can make a gesture with his head and with his hand or say Tasbih (Allah is free of all defects), and a woman in such condition can clap her hand.’”
7ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يُرِيدُ الْحَاجَةَ وَهُوَ فِي الصَّلاَةِ فَقَالَ
يُومِىُ بِرَأْسِهِ وَيُشِيرُ بِيَدِهِ وَيُسَبِّحُ وَالْمَرْأَةُ إِذَا أَرَادَتِ الْحَاجَةَ وَهِيَ تُصَلِّي تُصَفِّقُ بِيَدِهَا.
