Tahdhīb al-Aḥkām|Volume 1|Book 1|Chapter 11
أَخْبَرَنِي الشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبَانَ عَنْ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ وَفَضَالَةَ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ عَنِ الْفَأْرَةِ وَالْوَزَغَةِ تَقَعُ فِي الْبِئْرِ، قَالَ: يُنْزَحُ مِنْهَا ثَلَاثُ دِلَاءٍ.
The Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah سبحانه وتعالى support him, narrated to me from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from his father, from Al-Husayn ibn Al-Hasan ibn Aban, from Al-Husayn ibn Sa'id, from Hammad and Fadalah, from Mu'awiyah ibn Ammar. He said:
I asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام about a mouse and a gecko that fall into a well. Imam عليه السلام said: "Three buckets must be drawn from it."
