فَأَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْقَاسِمِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لَهُ اَلرَّجُلُ يُرِيدُ اَلْخَلاَءَ وَ عَلَيْهِ خَاتَمٌ فِيهِ اِسْمُ اَللَّهِ تَعَالَى فَقَالَ« مَا أُحِبُّ ذَلِكَ» قَالَ فَيَكُونُ اِسْمُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ« لاَ بَأْسَ بِهِ».
As for what was narrated by Muhammad bin Ahmad bin Yahya, from Sahl bin Ziyad, from Ali bin Al-Hakam, from Aban bin Uthman, from Abu Al-Qasim, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said:
I asked Imam عليه السلام: 'A man wants to relieve himself, and he is wearing a ring with the name of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Exalted, on it.' Imam عليه السلام said: 'I do not like that.' I asked: 'What if it has the name Muhammad صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم on it?' Imam عليه السلام said: 'There is no harm in that.'
