مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنِ اَلْعَمْرَكِيِّ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَخِيهِ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ هَلْ يَصْلُحُ أَنْ يَسْتَدْخِلَ اَلدَّوَاءَ ثُمَّ يُصَلِّيَ وَهُوَ مَعَهُ أَيَنْقُضُ اَلْوُضُوءَ قَالَ« لاَ يَنْقُضُ اَلْوُضُوءَ وَ لاَ يُصَلِّي حَتَّى يَطْرَحَهُ».
Muhammad ibn Ya'qub, from Muhammad ibn Yahya, from al-Amraki ibn Ali, from Ali ibn Ja'far, from his brother Imam Musa ibn Ja'far عليه السلام, said:
I asked Imam عليه السلام about a man - does it suffice for him to insert medicine into his body and then pray while it remains inside him? Does it invalidate his ablution? Imam عليه السلام said: "It does not invalidate the ablution, but he should not pray until he has removed it."

عَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ اَلْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنِ اِبْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ اَلْحَلَبِيِّ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَكُونُ عَلَى طُهْرٍ فَيَأْخُذُ مِنْ أَظْفَارِهِ أَوْ شَعْرِهِ أَ يُعِيدُ اَلْوُضُوءَ فَقَالَ« لاَ وَ لَكِنْ يَمْسَحُ رَأْسَهُ وَ أَظْفَارَهُ بِالْمَاءِ» قَالَ قُلْتُ فَإِنَّهُمْ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّ فِيهِ اَلْوُضُوءَ فَقَالَ« إِنْ خَاصَمُوكُمْ فَلاَ تُخَاصِمُوهُمْ قُولُوا هَكَذَا اَلسُّنَّةُ».
Narrated from Muhammad ibn Isma'il, from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan, from Safwan ibn Yahya, from Ibn Muskan, from Muhammad al-Halabi, who said:
I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, about a man who is in a state of ritual purity and then trims his nails or cuts his hair. Does he need to renew his ablution? Imam عليه السلام replied: "No, but he should wipe his head and nails with water." I then said: "They claim that it necessitates ablution." Imam عليه السلام responded: "If they argue with you, do not argue with them. Say, 'This is the Sunnah.'"

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُصَدِّقِ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ عَنْ عَمَّارٍ اَلسَّابَاطِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: اَلرَّجُلُ يَقْرِضُ مِنْ شَعْرِهِ بِأَسْنَانِهِ أَ يَمْسَحُهُ بِالْمَاءِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ قَالَ« لاَ بَأْسَ إِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ فِي اَلْحَدِيدِ».
Narrated from Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya, from Ahmad ibn al-Hasan, from Amro ibn Sa'id, from Musaddiq ibn Sadaqa, from Ammar al-Sabati, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام:
He asked: "If a man bites off some of his hair with his teeth, should he wipe it with water before praying?" Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no harm; that ruling only applies to iron (cutting with metal)."

مَا رَوَاهُ سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ نُوحٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ اَلْأَعْرَجِ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ آخُذُ مِنْ أَظْفَارِي وَ مِنْ شَارِبِي وَ أَحْلِقُ رَأْسِي أَفَأَغْتَسِلُ قَالَ« لاَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ غُسْلٌ» قُلْتُ فَأَتَوَضَّأُ قَالَ« لاَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ وُ ضُوءٌ» قُلْتُ فَأَمْسَحُ عَلَى أَظْفَارِيَ اَلْمَاءَ فَقَالَ« لاَ هُوَ طَهُورٌ لَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ مَسْحٌ.
Narrated from Sa'd ibn Abdullah, from Ayyub ibn Nuh, from Safwan ibn Yahya, from Sa'id ibn Abdullah al-A'raj:
I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام: “If I trim my nails, my mustache, or shave my head, should I perform ghusl (ritual bathing)?” Imam عليه السلام replied: "No, there is no need for ghusl." I then asked: “Should I perform wudu (ablution)?” Imam عليه السلام said: "No, there is no need for wudu." I further asked: “Should I wipe water over my nails?” Imam عليه السلام said: "No, it is already pure. There is no need to wipe it."

اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ اَلرَّجُلُ يُقَلِّمُ أَظْفَارَهُ وَ يَجُزُّ شَارِبَهُ وَ يَأْخُذُ مِنْ شَعْرِ لِحْيَتِهِ وَ رَأْسِهِ هَلْ يَنْقُضُ ذَلِكَ وُضُوءَهُ فَقَالَ« يَا زُرَارَةُ كُلُّ هَذَا سُنَّةٌ وَ اَلْوُضُوءُ فَرِيضَةٌ وَ لَيْسَ شَيْءٌ مِنَ اَلسُّنَّةِ يَنْقُضُ اَلْفَرِيضَةَ وَ إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَيَزِيدُهُ تَطْهِيراً».
Narrated from Al-Husayn ibn Sa'id, from Hammad ibn Isa, from Hariz, from Zurara:
I asked Abu Ja'far عليه السلام: “If a man trims his nails, cuts his mustache, or takes something from the hair of his beard or head, does that invalidate his wudu (ablution)?” Imam عليه السلام replied: "O Zurara, all of this is Sunnah, and wudu is a religious obligation. Nothing from the Sunnah invalidates the obligation. In fact, doing these acts increases one in purity."

Narrated from Al-Husayn ibn Sa'id, from Fadalah and Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr, from Mu'awiyah ibn Ammar:
I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, about a man who touches his private part during the obligatory prayer. Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no harm in it."

Narrated from him, from his brother Al-Hasan, from Zur'ah, from Sama'ah:
I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, about a man who touches his private part, or his genitals, or below that while he is standing in prayer. Should he repeat his wudu (ablution)? Imam عليه السلام said: “There is no harm in that. It is only a part of his body."

Narrated from him, from Ibn Abi Umayr, from Umar ibn Udhaynah, from Zurarah:
Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, said: "Wudu (ablution) is not obligatory except due to defecation, urination, a sound-breaking wind that is audible, or silent wind that has a noticeable odour."

عَنْهُ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ:« إِنَّ اَلشَّيْطَانَ يَنْفُخُ فِي دُبُرِ اَلْإِنْسَانِ حَتَّى يُخَيَّلَ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ قَدْ خَرَجَ مِنْهُ رِيحٌ وَ لاَ يَنْقُضُ وُضُوءَهُ إِلاَّ رِيحٌ يَسْمَعُهَا أَوْ يَجِدُ رِيحَهَا».
Narrated from him, from Fadalah ibn Ayyub, from Mu'awiyah ibn Ammar, who said that Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, said:
Imam عليه السلام said: "Indeed, Satan blows into the anus of a person until it seems to him that wind has exited, but his wudu (ablution) is not invalidated unless he hears the sound of the wind or detects its odor."

Narrated by Sa'd ibn Abdullah, from Al-Hasan ibn Ali, from Ahmad ibn Hilal, from Muhammad ibn Al-Walid, from Aban ibn Uthman, from Abdurrahman ibn Abi Abdullah, who said that Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, said:
I said to Imam عليه السلام: "I feel wind in my stomach until I think that it has exited." Imam عليه السلام replied: "You do not need to perform wudu unless you hear the sound or detect the odor." Then Imam عليه السلام added: "Indeed, Iblis comes and sits between a man's buttocks and passes wind to cause him doubt."

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلسِّنْدِيِّ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ قَالَ: سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ أَبَا اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ أَنَا حَاضِرٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّ بِي جُرْحاً فِي مَقْعَدَتِي فَأَتَوَضَّأُ ثُمَّ أَسْتَنْجِي ثُمَّ أَجِدُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ اَلنَّدَى وَاَلصُّفْرَةَ تَخْرُجُ مِنَ اَلْمَقْعَدَةِ فَأُعِيدُ اَلْوُضُوءَ قَالَ« أَنْقَيْتَ» قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ« لاَ وَ لَكِنْ رُشَّهُ بِالْمَاءِ وَ لاَ تُعِدِ اَلْوُضُوءَ».
Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Mahboub narrated from Ali ibn al-Sindi, from Safwan, who said:
A man asked Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام while I was present. He said: "I have a wound at my anus (perianal). I perform ablution (wudu) and then clean myself, but afterward, I notice moisture and yellowish discharge coming out of the wound. Should I repeat the ablution?" Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام asked: "Did you clean it properly?" The man replied: "Yes." Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام said: "No, do not repeat the ablution. Simply sprinkle it with water, and you do not need to repeat the ablution."

عَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ اَلرَّازِيِّ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ عُمَرَ مَوْلَى اَلْأَنْصَارِ: أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَحِلُّ لَهُ أَنْ يُصَافِحَ اَلْمَجُوسِيَّ فَقَالَ« لاَ» فَسَأَلَهُ أَ يَتَوَضَّأُ إِذَا صَافَحَهُمْ قَالَ« نَعَمْ إِنَّ مُصَافَحَتَهُمْ تَنْقُضُ اَلْوُضُوءَ».
Abu Abdullah al-Razi narrated from al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Abi Hamzah, from Saif ibn Amira, from Isa ibn Umar, the servant of the Ansar:
He (Narrator) asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام about whether it is permissible for a man to shake hands with a Magian (Zoroastrian). Abu Abdullah عليه السلام replied: "No." Then he asked: "Should he perform ablution (wudu) if he shakes hands with them?" Abu Abdullah عليه السلام said: "Yes, shaking hands with them invalidates the ablution."

قال محمد بن الحسن: هذا الخبر محمول على وضوء اليد وذلك قد يسمى وضوءا على ما بيناه لانه متى صافح المسلم الكافر وجب عليه غسل يده على ما بيناه.
Muhammad ibn al-Hasan commented: “This narration should be understood as referring to washing the hand, which is sometimes called "ablution." As we have explained, whenever a Muslim shakes hands with a disbeliever, it is obligatory for him to wash his hand, as clarified previously.”
وَ رَوَى حَرِيزٌ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ:« إِذَا كَانَ اَلرَّجُلُ يَقْطُرُ مِنْهُ اَلْبَوْلُ وَ اَلدَّمُ إِذَا كَانَ فِي اَلصَّلاَةِ اِتَّخَذَ كِيساً وَ جَعَلَ فِيهِ قُطْناً ثُمَّ عَلَّقَهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ أَدْخَلَ ذَكَرَهُ فِيهِ ثُمَّ صَلَّى يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ اَلصَّلاَتَيْنِ اَلظُّهْرِ وَ اَلْعَصْرِ يُؤَخِّرُ اَلظُّهْرَ وَ يُعَجِّلُ اَلْعَصْرَ بِأَذَانٍ وَ إِقَامَتَيْنِ وَ يُؤَخِّرُ اَلْمَغْرِبَ وَ يُعَجِّلُ اَلْعِشَاءَ بِأَذَانٍ وَ إِقَامَتَيْنِ وَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي اَلصُّبْحِ».
Narrated by Hariz, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام:
Imam عليه السلام said: "If a man experiences continuous dripping of urine or blood while in prayer, he should prepare a pouch, place cotton inside it, then tie it around himself and insert his private part into it. Then he should pray, combining the two prayers of Dhuhr and Asr by delaying Dhuhr and hastening Asr, with one Adhan and two Iqamahs. Similarly, he should delay Maghrib and hasten Isha with one Adhan and two Iqamahs. He should also follow this method for Fajr (morning prayer)."

Narrated by Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from Al-Husayn ibn Sa'id, from Ibn Abi Umayr, from Hanan ibn Sudayr:
He (Narrator) said: I heard a man asking Abu Abdullah عليه السلام: "Sometimes I urinate and cannot find water, and this causes me great distress." Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, replied: "If you urinate and clean yourself, then wipe your private part with your saliva. If you later feel anything, say: 'This is from that.'"

Narrated by Ahmad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Faddal, from Amr ibn Sa’id, from Musaddiq ibn Sadaqa, from Ammar ibn Musa, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام:
Imam عليه السلام was asked about a man who performs ablution and then touches the inside of his anus. Imam عليه السلام replied: "His ablution is invalidated. If he touches the inside of his urethra, he must repeat the ablution. If he was in prayer, he must interrupt the prayer, perform ablution again, and repeat the prayer. And if he opens his urethra, he must repeat the ablution and the prayer."

Narrated by Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from al-Hasan ibn Ali al-Washsha’:
I heard Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام, say that Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, used to say regarding a man who inserts his hand into his nose and finds blood on five of his fingers: "He should clean it, and he does not need to repeat the ablution."

Narrated by Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Mahbub, from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn, from Safwan, from al-Ala, from Muhammad, from one of the Imams عليه السلام:
I asked Imam عليه السلام about a man who has sores that continue to bleed - how should he pray? Imam عليه السلام said: "He should pray even if the blood is flowing."

Narrated by Muhammad ibn al-Husayn, from Uthman ibn Isa, from Abu Hilal:
I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, whether nosebleed, vomiting, and plucking armpit hair invalidate wudu. Imam عليه السلام said: “What do you have to do with this? This is the saying of Mughira ibn Sa'id - may Allah سبحانه وتعالى curse Mughira. It is sufficient for you, in the case of nosebleed and vomiting, to wash it off, and you do not need to repeat the wudu.”

وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَخَذَهُ تَقْطِيرٌ مِنْ فَرْجِهِ إِمَّا دَمٌ وَ إِمَّا غَيْرُهُ قَالَ« فَلْيَصْنَعْ خَرِيطَةً وَ لْيَتَوَضَّأْ وَ لْيُصَلِّ فَإِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ بَلاَءٌ اُبْتُلِيَ بِهِ فَلاَ يُعِيدَنَّ إِلاَّ مِنَ اَلْحَدَثِ اَلَّذِي يُتَوَضَّأُ مِنْهُ».
Narrated by Muhammad ibn al-Husayn, from Uthman ibn Isa, from Sama’ah:
I asked Imam عليه السلام about a man who experiences discharge from his private part, whether it is blood or something else. Imam عليه السلام said: “Let him make a pouch, perform wudu, and pray. This is only a trial he has been afflicted with, so he should not repeat (his prayer) except due to an event that necessitates wudu (other than this).”

Narrated by Ayyub ibn al-Hurr, from Ubayd ibn Zurarah:
I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, about a man who is affected by flowing blood. Imam عليه السلام said: “He should perform ablution and repeat the prayer.

قال محمد بن الحسن: معنى قوله عليه السلام يتوضأ أي يغسل الموضع على ما بيناه فيما مضى.
Muhammad ibn al-Hasan commented: “The meaning of His عليه السلام statement, peace be upon him, ‘he should perform ablution,’ refers to washing the affected area, as explained previously.

Narrated by Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Mahbub, from Ahmad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ali, from Amr ibn Sa'id, from Musaddiq ibn Sadaqah, from Ammar al-Sabati:
I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, about a man who performed ablution and then ate meat or fish. I asked: “Can he pray without washing his hands?” Imam عليه السلام said: “Yes. But if he drank milk, he should not pray until he washes his hands and rinses his mouth. And the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, peace be upon him and his family, used to pray after eating meat without washing his hands. However, if he drank milk, he would not pray until he washed his hands and rinsed his mouth.”
