Chapter on Acts That Necessitate Purification

سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ هِلاَلٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلْوَلِيدِ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ أَجِدُ اَلرِّيحَ فِي بَطْنِي حَتَّى أَظُنُّ أَنَّهَا قَدْ خَرَجَتْ فَقَالَ «لَيْسَ عَلَيْكَ وُضُوءٌ حَتَّى تَسْمَعَ اَلصَّوْتَ أَوْ تَجِدَ اَلرِّيحَ» ثُمَّ قَالَ« إِنَّ إِبْلِيسَ يَجِيءُ فَيَجْلِسُ بَيْنَ أَلْيَتَيِ اَلرَّجُلِ فَيَفْسُو لِيُشَكِّكَهُ
Narrated by Sa'd ibn Abdullah, from Al-Hasan ibn Ali, from Ahmad ibn Hilal, from Muhammad ibn Al-Walid, from Aban ibn Uthman, from Abdurrahman ibn Abi Abdullah, who said that Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, said: I said to Imam عليه السلام: "I feel wind in my stomach until I think that it has exited." Imam عليه السلام replied: "You do not need to perform wudu unless you hear the sound or detect the odor." Then Imam عليه السلام added: "Indeed, Iblis comes and sits between a man's buttocks and passes wind to cause him doubt."
