مَا أَخْبَرَنِي بِهِ اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ وَ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى وَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ اَلْأَشْعَرِيِّ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ غُسْلِ اَلْجَنَابَةِ فَقَالَ« أَفِضْ عَلَى رَأْسِكَ ثَلاَثَ أَكُفٍّ وَ عَنْ يَمِينِكَ وَ عَنْ يَسَارِكَ إِنَّمَا يَكْفِيكَ مِثْلُ اَلدَّهْنِ
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-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Faddal, from Abdullah ibn Bukayr; and from al-Husayn ibn Sa'id, from Safwan ibn Yahya and Muhammad ibn Khalid al-Ash'ari, from al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Faddal, from Abdullah ibn Bukayr, from Zurara, who said:
I asked Abu Ja'far عليه السلام about ghusl for janabah. Imam عليه السلام said: "Pour water over your head three times, then over your right side and your left side. An amount equivalent to oil suffices for you."
