رَوَى حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ اَلنَّخَعِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «مَنْ أَرَادَ سَفَراً فَلْيُسَافِرْ يَوْمَ اَلسَّبْتِ فَلَوْ أَنَّ حَجَراً زَالَ عَنْ جَبَلٍ فِي يَوْمِ اَلسَّبْتِ لَرَدَّهُ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَى مَكَانِهِ وَ مَنْ تَعَذَّرَتْ عَلَيْهِ اَلْحَوَائِجُ فَلْيَلْتَمِسْ طَلَبَهَا يَوْمَ اَلثَّلاَثَاءِ فَإِنَّهُ اَلْيَوْمُ اَلَّذِي أَلاَنَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِيهِ اَلْحَدِيدَ لِدَاوُدَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ ».
Hafs ibn Ghayath al-Nakha'i narrated from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام: "Whoever intends to travel should travel on a Saturday, for if a stone were to be dislodged from a mountain on a Saturday, Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Glorious and Majestic, would return it to its place. And whoever finds difficulties in fulfilling their needs should seek them on a Tuesday, for it is the day on which Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Glorious and Majestic, softened iron for Dawood (David), peace be upon him."
