1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn abu Hamzah forms who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about commencing a journey when the month of Ramadan has just arrived. He (the Imam) said, ‘No, except that which I tell you. Traveling to Makkah, travelling in an armed expedition for the cause of Allah, for protection of an asset that is feared for its destruction, and to say farewell to and escort a brother and it applies not only to your brother from your father and mother, are permissible.”’

Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.

2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hammad from al-Halabiy who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who when the month of Ramadan arrives is at home and does not want to travel; then it occurs to him, when it is the month of Ramadan, to travel. He (the Imam) remained quiet and I asked several times then he (the Imam) said, ‘Staying home is better unless he has a certain need for which it is necessary for him to travel or is afraid for his assets.’”
