Chapter on Entering the Bathhouse, Its Etiquettes, and Recommended Practices

عَنْهُ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ جَائِياً مِنَ اَلْحَمَّامِ وَ بَيْنَهُ وَ بَيْنَ دَارِهِ قَذَرٌ فَقَالَ« لَوْلاَ مَا بَيْنِي وَ بَيْنَ دَارِي مَا غَسَلْتُ رِجْلِي وَ لاَ نَحَيْتُ مَاءَ اَلْحَمَّامِ».
From him, from Ibn Abi Umayr, from Fadalah, from Jamil bin Darraj, from Muhammad bin Muslim, who said: I saw Abu Ja’far عليه السلام coming from the bathhouse, and there was filth between it and his house. Imam عليه السلام said: "If it were not for what is between me and my house, I would not have washed my feet or removed the water of the bathhouse."
