مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُصَدِّقِ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ عَنْ عَمَّارٍ اَلسَّابَاطِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: اَلرَّجُلُ يَقْرِضُ مِنْ شَعْرِهِ بِأَسْنَانِهِ أَ يَمْسَحُهُ بِالْمَاءِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ قَالَ« لاَ بَأْسَ إِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ فِي اَلْحَدِيدِ».
Narrated from Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya, from Ahmad ibn al-Hasan, from Amro ibn Sa'id, from Musaddiq ibn Sadaqa, from Ammar al-Sabati, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام:
He asked: "If a man bites off some of his hair with his teeth, should he wipe it with water before praying?" Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no harm; that ruling only applies to iron (cutting with metal)."
