Chapter on Ritual Washings (Ghusl) and the Method of Performing Ghusl for Janabah (major impurity)
عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ عَنْ زُرْعَةَ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلْجُنُبِ يُجْنِبُ ثُمَّ يُرِيدُ اَلنَّوْمَ قَالَ« إِنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ فَلْيَفْعَلْ وَ اَلْغُسْلُ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَ إِنْ هُوَ نَامَ وَ لَمْ يَتَوَضَّأْ وَ لَمْ يَغْتَسِلْ فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ إِنْ شَاءَ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى».
From him, from Al-Hasan, from Zur'ah, from Sama'ah, who said:
I asked Imam عليه السلام about a person in a state of janabah who becomes junub again and then wants to sleep. Imam عليه السلام said: "If he wishes to perform wudu, then let him do so, and ghusl is better than that. But if he sleeps without performing wudu or ghusl, then there is nothing upon him, if Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Exalted, wills."
