أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی یَعْقُوبُ بْنُ یَزِیدَ عَنِ الْحُصَیْنِ بْنِ یَزِیدَ الْمُخَارِقِیِّ الْکُوفِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی جُنَادَهَ السَّلُولِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی حَمْزَهَ الثُّمَالِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: مَنْ صَامَ شَعْبَانَ کَانَ لَهُ طَهُوراً مِنْ کُلِّ زَلَّهٍ وَ وَصْمَهٍ وَ بَادِرَهٍ فَقَالَ أَبُو حَمْزَهَ فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع مَا الْوَصْمَهُ قَالَ الْیَمِینُ فِی الْمَعْصِیَهِ وَ النَّذْرُ فِی الْمَعْصِیَهِ قُلْتُ فَمَا الْبَادِرَهُ قَالَ الْیَمِینُ عِنْدَ الْغَضَبِ وَ التَّوْبَهُ مِنْهَا وَ النَّدَمُ عَلَیْهَا.
1. My father رحمه الله said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah who said it was narrated to me by Ya’qub b. Yazid from al-Huseen b. Yazid al-Makharaki al-Kufi from Abi Janadah al-Saluli from Abi Hamzah al-Thumali from Abi Ja’far عليه السلام who said: “I asked the Imam as to what he meant by that defect.” Imam عليه السلام replied, “It is the oath of Allah’s disobedience.” I asked, “What is the meaning of that anger?” He replied, “Taking an oath out of anger and then repenting it.”
