Chapter on Acts That Necessitate Purification

عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ اَلْهَاشِمِيِّ عَنْ مَرْوَانَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلْأَعْلَى عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلْحِجَامَةِ أَ فِيهَا وُضُوءٌ قَالَ« لاَ وَ لاَ يَغْسِلُ مَكَانَهَا لِأَنَّ اَلْحَجَّامَ مُؤْتَمَنٌ إِذَا كَانَ يُنَظِّفُهُ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ صَبِيّاً صَغِيراً».
Narrated by Ahmad ibn al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Faddal, from Ali ibn Ya'qub al-Hashimi, from Marwan ibn Muslim, from Abdul-A'la, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام: I asked Imam عليه السلام about cupping - does it require ablution? Imam عليه السلام said: “No, and he does not need to wash the area because the cupper is entrusted, provided he cleans it properly and is not a young boy.”
