Chapter on Expiation for Intentionally Breaking the Fast of a Day from the Month of Ramadan
فَأَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ اَلرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ أَصَابَتْهُ جَنَابَةٌ فِي شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ فَنَامَ عَمْداً حَتَّى أَصْبَحَ أَيُّ شَيْءٍ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ» لاَ يَضُرُّهُ هَذَا وَ لاَ يُفْطِرُ وَ لاَ يُبَالِي فَإِنَّ أَبِي عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ» قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ أَصْبَحَ جُنُباً مِنْ جِمَاعٍ غَيْرِ اِحْتِلاَمٍ««.
As for what Sa’ad ibn Abdullah narrated from Abu Jafar, from Sa’ad ibn Ismail ibn Isa, from his father, who said:
I (narrator) asked Imam al-Ridha عليه السلام, peace be upon him, about ‘a man who was affected by janabah in the month of Ramadan, then slept deliberately until morning came. What is upon him?’ Imam عليه السلام said: “This does not harm him, and he does not break his fast, and he does not pay any attention to it, for my father عليه السلام, peace be upon him, said: ‘Aisha said: Indeed, the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, may Allah سبحانه وتعالى bless him and his family, woke in the morning while junub from intercourse, not from a wet dream.’”
