Chapter on Purifying Clothes and Other Items From Impurities

وَ أَخْبَرَنِي اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبَانٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ عَنْبَسَةَ بْنِ مُصْعَبٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلْمَنِيِّ يُصِيبُ اَلثَّوْبَ فَلاَ يَدْرِي أَيْنَ مَكَانُهُ قَالَ« يَغْسِلُهُ كُلَّهُ وَ إِنْ عَلِمَ مَكَانَهُ فَلْيَغْسِلْهُ».
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 Ibn Sinan, from Ibn Muskan, from Anbasah ibn Mus'ab. He said: I asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام about semen that touches clothing, but its location is unknown. Imam عليه السلام said: "He should wash the entire garment. And if he knows its location, then he should wash that spot."
