Chapter on the Obligation of Shortening the Fast During Travel
وَ رَوَى يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: فِي اَلْمُسَافِرِ يَدْخُلُ أَهْلَهُ وَ هُوَ جُنُبٌ قَبْلَ اَلزَّوَالِ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ أَكَلَ فَعَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُتِمَّ صَوْمَهُ وَ لاَ قَضَاءَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ «يَعْنِي إِذَا كَانَتْ جَنَابَتُهُ مِنِ اِحْتِلاَمٍ.
Yunus ibn Abdul-Rahman narrated from Imam Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim عليه السلام that he said regarding a traveler who reaches his home while in a state of ritual impurity (janabah) before noon and has not yet eaten: "He must complete his fast, and there is no requirement to make it up." The Imam عليه السلام clarified: "This applies if his janabah resulted from a nocturnal emission (ihtilam)."
