Chapter on Purifying Clothes and Other Items From Impurities

مَا أَخْبَرَنِي بِهِ اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى وَ اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَبِيهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنِ اَلْعَبَّاسِ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رِئَابٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَقَعُ ثَوْبُهُ عَلَى جَسَدِ اَلْمَيِّتِ قَالَ« إِنْ كَانَ غُسِّلَ اَلْمَيِّتُ فَلاَ تَغْسِلْ مَا أَصَابَ ثَوْبَكَ مِنْهُ وَ إِنْ كَانَ لَمْ يُغَسَّلِ اَلْمَيِّتُ فَاغْسِلْ مَا أَصَابَ ثَوْبَكَ مِنْهُ».
Narrated to me by the Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah سبحانه وتعالى support him, from Ahmad bin Muhammad, from his father, from Muhammad bin Yahya, and Al-Husayn bin Ubaydullah, from Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Yahya, from his father Muhammad bin Yahya, from Muhammad bin Ali bin Mahbub, from Al-Abbas, from Al-Hasan bin Mahbub, from Ali bin Ri'ab, from Ibrahim bin Maymun, who said: I asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام about a man whose garment comes into contact with the body of a deceased person. Imam عليه السلام said: "If the deceased has been washed, then do not wash what touched your garment from him. But if the deceased has not been washed, then wash what touched your garment from him."
