Chapter on Water and Its Rules

وَ سَأَلَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ أَخَاهُ مُوسَى بْنَ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَمُرُّ فِي مَاءِ اَلْمَطَرِ وَ قَدْ صُبَّ فِيهِ خَمْرٌ فَأَصَابَ ثَوْبَهُ هَلْ يُصَلِّي فِيهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَغْسِلَهُ فَقَالَ« لاَ يَغْسِلُ ثَوْبَهُ وَ لاَ رِجْلَهُ وَ يُصَلِّي فِيهِ وَ لاَ بَأْسَ».
Ali ibn Ja’far asked his brother Imam Musa ibn Ja’far عليه السلام about a man who walks through rainwater into which wine has been poured, and it touches his clothes. Can he pray in them before washing them? Imam عليه السلام said: "He does not need to wash his clothes or his feet, and he may pray in them. There is no harm."
