Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 2|Book 3|Chapter 46
رَوَى مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «إِذَا اِنْتَهَيْتَ إِلَى اَلْعَقِيقِ مِنْ قِبَلِ اَلْعِرَاقِ أَوْ إِلَى وَقْتٍ مِنْ هَذِهِ اَلْمَوَاقِيتِ وَ أَنْتَ تُرِيدُ اَلْإِحْرَامَ إِنْ شَاءَ اَللَّهُ فَانْتِفْ إِبْطَيْكَ وَ قَلِّمْ أَظْفَارَكَ وَ اِطْلِ عَانَتَكَ وَ خُذْ مِنْ شَارِبِكَ وَ لاَ يَضُرُّكَ بِأَيِّ ذَلِكَ بَدَأْتَ ثُمَّ اِسْتَكْ وَ اِغْتَسِلْ وَ اِلْبَسْ ثَوْبَيْكَ وَ لْيَكُنْ فَرَاغُكَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِنْ شَاءَ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عِنْدَ زَوَالِ اَلشَّمْسِ وَ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ ذَلِكَ عِنْدَ زَوَالِ اَلشَّمْسِ فَلاَ يَضُرُّكَ إِلاَّ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ أَنْ يَكُونَ عِنْدَ زَوَالِ اَلشَّمْسِ ».
Mu‘awiyah ibn Ammar narrated from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said: "When you reach Al-‘Aqiq coming from Iraq, or any of the designated miqats (stations for Ihram), and you intend to enter Ihram, if Allah سبحانه وتعالى wills, then remove the hair from your underarms, trim your nails, clean your private area, and trim your mustache. It does not matter in which order you begin these actions. Then use the siwak (tooth-stick), take a ritual bath (ghusl), and wear your two garments for Ihram. Let this preparation, if Allah سبحانه وتعالى wills, be completed by the time of midday (zawal). If it is not completed by midday, there is no harm, but it is more beloved to me that it coincides with midday."
