Chapter on Purifying Water From Impurities

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ عُثَيْمٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ سَامُّ أَبْرَصَ وَجَدْنَاهُ قَدْ تَفَسَّخَ فِي اَلْبِئْرِ قَالَ« إِنَّمَا عَلَيْكَ أَنْ تَنْزَحَ مِنْهَا سَبْعَ دِلاَءٍ» قُلْتُ فَثِيَابُنَا اَلَّتِي قَدْ صَلَّيْنَا فِيهَا نَغْسِلُهَا وَ نُعِيدُ اَلصَّلاَةَ قَالَ« لاَ».
Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Mahbub narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from Ali ibn Al-Hakam, from Aban, from Ya'qub ibn Uthaym. He said: I said to Abu Abdullah عليه السلام: "We found a gecko (samm abrass) decomposed in the well." Imam عليه السلام said: "You only need to draw seven buckets from it." I asked: "What about our clothes in which we have already prayed? Should we wash them and repeat the prayer?" Imam عليه السلام said: "No."
