Chapter on Expiation for Intentionally Breaking the Fast of a Day from the Month of Ramadan
اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَلْحَمِيدِ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي رَجُلٍ أَجْنَبَ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ بِاللَّيْلِ ثُمَّ تَرَكَ اَلْغُسْلَ مُتَعَمِّداً حَتَّى أَصْبَحَ قَالَ» يُعْتِقُ رَقَبَةً أَوْ يَصُومُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ أَوْ يُطْعِمُ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِيناً« قَالَ وَ قَالَ» إِنَّهُ خَلِيقٌ أَنْ لاَ أَرَاهُ يُدْرِكُهُ أَبَداً«.
Al-Husayn ibn Said, from Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr, from Ibrahim ibn Abd al-Hamid, from Abu Basir, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him:
(Imam عليه السلام was asked) regarding ‘a man who became junub in the month of Ramadan at night, then deliberately left the ghusl until morning came.’ Imam عليه السلام said: “He frees a slave, or fasts two consecutive months, or feeds sixty needy persons.” He (narrator) said: “And Imam عليه السلام said: ‘Indeed, he is deserving that I do not see him ever attaining it (the merits of the original fast).’”
