Chapter on What is Obligatory for One Who Circumambulates or Performs Any of the Rites Without Ablution

وَ رَوَى صَفْوَانُ عَنْ يَحْيَى اَلْأَزْرَقِ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَجُلٌ سَعَى بَيْنَ اَلصَّفَا وَ اَلْمَرْوَةِ فَسَعَى ثَلاَثَةَ أَشْوَاطٍ أَوْ أَرْبَعَةً ثُمَّ بَالَ ثُمَّ أَتَمَّ سَعْيَهُ بِغَيْرِ وُضُوءٍ فَقَالَ «لاَ بَأْسَ وَ لَوْ أَتَمَّ مَنَاسِكَهُ بِوُضُوءٍ كَانَ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ ».
It is narrated by Safwan from Yahya al-Azraq, who said: I asked Abu al-Hasan عليه السلام about a man who performed the sa‘i between Safa and Marwa, completing three or four circuits, then urinated and completed the rest of his sa‘i without wudu. Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no harm in it, but if he had completed his rituals with wudu, it would have been more preferable to me."
