The Dress in the State of al-Thram and Detestable Dress in Such State

17. Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from Ali ibn al-Hakam from al-Husayn ibn abu al-‘Ala’ who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about the cloth which is stained with saffron and it then is washed but it (the stain) does not go away; if it can be used for Ihram. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful if its smell is gone; even if all of it is colored which has become of a whitish color, when washed; then it is not harmful.’”
