Chapter on Description of Tayammum, Its Rules for Those in a State of Impurity, and What They Should Observe About Istibra and Istizhar
أَخْبَرَنِي الشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَبِي الْقَاسِمِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا رَفَعَهُ إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ قَالَ: جَرَتِ السُّنَّةُ فِي الِاسْتِنْجَاءِ بِثَلَاثَةِ أَحْجَارٍ أَبْكَارٍ، وَيُتْبَعُ بِالْمَاءِ.
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 Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from some of our companions who raised it to Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said:
Imam عليه السلام said: "The Sunnah for Istinja' (cleaning after relieving oneself) is to use three new stones, followed by water."
