Rare Ahadith about Wudu’

16ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنِ الْعَمْرَكِيِّ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَخِيهِ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ رَعَفَ فَامْتَخَطَ فَصَارَ بَعْضُ ذَلِكَ الدَّمِ قِطَعاً صِغَاراً فَأَصَابَ إِنَاءَهُ هَلْ يَصْلُحُ لَهُ الْوُضُوءُ مِنْهُ فَقَالَ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ شَيْ‏ءٌ يَسْتَبِينُ فِي الْمَاءِ فَلاَ بَأْسَ وَإِنْ كَانَ شَيْئاً بَيِّناً فَلاَ يَتَوَضَّأْ مِنْهُ قَالَ وَسَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ رَعَفَ وَهُوَ يَتَوَضَّأُ فَيَقْطُرُ قَطْرَةٌ فِي إِنَائِهِ هَلْ يَصْلُحُ الْوُضُوءُ مِنْهُ قَالَ لاَ.
16. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from al-‘Amrakiy ibn Ali from Ali ibn Ja‘far from his brother abu al-Hassan عليه السلام has said the following: “I once asked abu al-Hassan عليه السلام, about the case of one who had a nosebleed; then he blew his nose and parts of it became small segments which came in contact with his water container. Can he take Wudu’ with such water? He (the Imam) said, ’If nothing is visible in the water container it is not harmful. However, if things show in it he must not use it for Wudu’. I (the narrator) then asked him (the Imam) about a man who has nosebleed while taking Wudu’ and a drop falls in his water container. Can he take Wudu with such water? He (the Imam) said, ‘No, he cannot take Wudu’ with such water.’”
