860 - وَقَالَ رَجُلٌ لِلصَّادِقِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: إِنِّي أَكُونُ فِي اَلسَّفَرِ وَ لاَ أَهْتَدِي إِلَى اَلْقِبْلَةِ بِاللَّيْلِ فَقَالَ «أَ تَعْرِفُ اَلْكَوْكَبَ اَلَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ اَلْجَدْيَ» قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ «فَاجْعَلْهُ عَلَى يَمِينِكَ وَ إِذَا كُنْتَ عَلَى طَرِيقِ اَلْحَجِّ فَاجْعَلْهُ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْكَ.
