Chapter on Etiquettes of Acts That Require Purification

عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ ابْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ: رَجُلٌ بَالَ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ مَعَهُ مَاءٌ؟ قَالَ: يَعْصِرُ أَصْلَ ذَكَرِهِ إِلَى طَرَفِ ذَكَرِهِ ثَلَاثَ عَصَرَاتٍ وَيَنْتُرُ طَرَفَهُ، فَإِنْ خَرَجَ بَعْدَ ذٰلِكَ شَيْءٌ فَلَيْسَ مِنَ الْبَوْلِ وَلَكِنَّهُ مِنَ الْحَبَائِلِ.
Ali ibn Ibrahim, from his father, from Hammad, from Hariz, from Ibn Muslim, said: I asked Abu Ja'far عليه السلام, about a man who urinates and does not have water with him. Imam عليه السلام said: “He should squeeze the base of his private part toward its tip three times and shake its tip. If anything comes out after that, it is not urine but rather from the veins.”
