Chapter on Rules of Janabah and Methods of Purification

وَ أَخْبَرَنِي اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ اَلنَّضْرِ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ حُمَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ وَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُمَا سَمِعَاهُ يَقُولُ:« كَانَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ يَغْتَسِلُ بِصَاعٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ وَ يَتَوَضَّأُ بِمُدٍّ مِنْ مَاءٍ».
Narrated by the Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah سبحانه وتعالى support him, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from his father, from Sa'd ibn Abdullah, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from al-Husayn ibn Sa'id, from al-Nadr, from Asim ibn Humayd, from Abu Basir and Muhammad ibn Muslim, from Abu Ja'far عليه السلام, that they both heard him say: Imam عليه السلام said: "The Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace be upon him and his family) used to perform ghusl with a sa‘ of water and perform wudu with a mudd of water."
