13ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ يَاسِينَ الضَّرِيرِ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ أَنَّ رَجُلاً مِنْ أَهْلِ خُرَاسَانَ قَدِمَ حَاجّاً وَكَانَ أَقْرَعَ الرَّأْسِ لا يُحْسِنُ أَنْ يُلَبِّيَ فَاسْتُفْتِيَ لَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فَأَمَرَ أَنْ يُلَبَّى عَنْهُ وَيُمَرَّ الْمُوسَى عَلَى رَأْسِهِ فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ يُجْزِئُ عَنْهُ.
13. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Yasin al-Darir from Hariz from Zurarah who has said the following: “Once a man from Khurasan came for al-Hajj, his head had baldness and could not pronounce Talbiyah correctly. A fatwa was requested about it from abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, and he (the Imam) said that Talbiyah must be said on his behalf, and he must pass the blade over his head. It will be sufficient for him.’” NOTE: Fatwa best explains Hadith 3-13 of this and all of the following Chapters.
