Hadith.734 - Ali ibn Mahziyar asked Abu Al-Hasan the Third, Imam Ali ibn Muhammad Al-Hadi (as), about a man who finds himself in the desert (al-Bayda') when the time for an obligatory prayer comes and does not leave the desert until the prayer's time has passed.
He asked: "What should he do about the prayer, given that it is prohibited to pray in al-Bayda'?"
Imam (as) said: "He should pray there, but he should avoid the main path (road)."
