حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَهُ وَرَجُلٌ، يَسْأَلُهُ فَقَالَ إِنِّي لأَجِدُ الْبَلَلَ وَأَنَا أُصَلِّي، أَفَأَنْصَرِفُ فَقَالَ لَهُ سَعِيدٌ لَوْ سَالَ عَلَى فَخِذِي مَا انْصَرَفْتُ حَتَّى أَقْضِيَ صَلاَتِي .

Should I leave?"Saidibn al-Musayyab said to him, "Even if it were to flow on my leg Iwould not leave until I had finished the prayer."
