Chapter on the Description of Ablution and Its Obligations

فَأَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ هَلْ فِي مَسْحِ اَلْخُفَّيْنِ تَقِيَّةٌ فَقَالَ ثَلاَثَةٌ« لاَ أَتَّقِي فِيهِنَّ أَحَداً شُرْبُ اَلْمُسْكِرِ وَ مَسْحُ اَلْخُفَّيْنِ وَ مُتْعَةُ اَلْحَجِّ».
Al-Husayn ibn Sa'id narrated from Hammad, from Hariz, from Zurara who said: I asked Imam Abu Ja'far عليه السلام: "Is there any allowance for practicing taqiyya (dissimulation) in wiping over the leather socks (khuffayn)?" Imam عليه السلام replied three times: "There are three matters in which I do not practice taqiyya with anyone - drinking intoxicants, wiping over leather socks, and mut‘a of Hajj[5]."
