741 - وَ سُئِلَ: عَنِ اَلتَّمَاثِيلِ تَكُونُ فِي اَلْبِسَاطِ لَهَا عَيْنَانِ وَ أَنْتَ تُصَلِّي فَقَالَ «إِنْ كَانَ لَهَا عَيْنٌ وَاحِدَةٌ فَلاَ بَأْسَ وَ إِنْ كَانَ لَهَا عَيْنَانِ وَ أَنْتَ تُصَلِّي فَلاَ.
Hadith.741 – He, Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as), was asked about images on a carpet that have two eyes while you are praying. Imam (as) said: "If it has one eye, then there is no harm, but if it has two eyes and you are praying, then it is not permissible."
