عَلِيُّ بْنُ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنِ اَلسَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ أَمِيرِ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ:« اَلْغَرِيقُ يُغَسَّلُ».
Ali bin al-Husayn, from Muhammad bin Ahmad bin Ali, from al-Husayn bin Yazid, from al-Sakuni, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who narrated from Commander of the Faithful عليه السلام: Imam Ali عليه السلام used to say: “The one who drowned must be given ghusl (ritual washing).”
