18ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ قُلْتُ لَهُ الطَّيْلَسَانُ يَعْمَلُهُ الْمَجُوسُ أُصَلِّي فِيهِ قَالَ أَ لَيْسَ يُغْسَلُ بِالْمَاءِ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ لاَ بَأْسَ قُلْتُ الثَّوْبُ الْجَدِيدُ يَعْمَلُهُ الْحَائِكُ أُصَلِّي فِيهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ.
18. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad and Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Isa from Sanaa ‘ah from abu Basir who has said the following: “I once asked abu Ja’far عليه السلام, about the shawl made by Zoroastrians if I can perform Salah (prayer) with it. He (the Imam) asked, ‘Can it be washed with water?’ I replied, ‘Yes, it can be washed.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not an offense to perform Salah (prayer) with it.’ I then asked about cloths made by the weavers if I can perform Salah (prayer) with it. He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, you can do so.’”
