Chapter on Obligatory and Recommended Ritual Washing

وَ أَخْبَرَنِي اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَبِي اَلْقَاسِمِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ غُسْلِ اَلْجُمُعَةِ فَقَالَ« سُنَّةٌ فِي اَلسَّفَرِ وَ اَلْحَضَرِ إِلاَّ أَنْ يَخَافَ اَلْمُسَافِرُ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ اَلْقُرَّ».
Narrated by the Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah سبحانه وتعالى support him, narrated to me from Abu al-Qasim Ja’far ibn Muhammad, from his father, from Sa’d ibn Abdullah, from Ya’qub ibn Yazid, from Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr, from Umar ibn Udhaynah, from Zurara, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said: I asked Imam عليه السلام about the ghusl on Friday, and Imam عليه السلام said: 'It is a sunnah in both travel and residence, except if the traveler fears harm from the cold.'"
