عَلِيُّ بْنُ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْجَوْزَاءِ اَلْمُنَبِّهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عُلْوَانَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ آبَائِهِ عَنْ أَمِيرِ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« يُسَلُّ اَلرَّجُلُ سَلاًّ وَيُسْتَقْبَلُ اَلْمَرْأَةُ اِسْتِقْبَالاً وَ يَكُونُ أَوْلَى اَلنَّاسِ بِالْمَرْأَةِ فِي مُؤَخَّرِهَا».
Ali ibn al-Husayn, from Sa'd, from Abu al-Jawza al-Munabbih ibn Ubayd Allah سبحانه وتعالى, from al-Husayn ibn 'Alwan, from 'Amr ibn Khalid, from Zayd ibn 'Ali, from his forefathers, from Commander of the Faithful Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام said:
Imam Ali عليه السلام said: "The man should be lowered lengthwise, and the woman should be received crosswise, and the closest person to the woman should be at her rear."
