Purification

وَ رُوِيَ‌ أَنَّ مِنَ السُّنَّةِ دَفْنَ الشَّعْرِ وَ الظُّفُرِ وَ الدَّمِ.

مِنْ ذَلِكَ التَّمَشُّطُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ[2].

Hadith.318 - Abu Al-Hasan Imam Ali ibn Musa Ar-Ridha (as) was asked about the saying of Allah (swt), the Mighty and Glorious: 'Take your adornment at every place of worship.' (Surah Al-A’raf 7:31). Imam (as) said: "Part of that includes combing one's hair before every prayer”.

مَشْطُ الرَّأْسِ يَذْهَبُ بِالْوَبَاءِ وَ مَشْطُ اللِّحْيَةِ يَشُدُّ الْأَضْرَاسَ

إِذَا سَرَّحْتَ لِحْيَتَكَ وَ رَأْسَكَ فَأَمِرَّ الْمُشْطَ عَلَى صَدْرِكَ فَإِنَّهُ يَذْهَبُ بِالْهَمِّ وَ الْوَنَا[3]

مَنْ سَرَّحَ لِحْيَتَهُ سَبْعِينَ مَرَّةً وَ عَدَّهَا مَرَّةً مَرَّةً لَمْ يَقْرَبْهُ الشَّيْطَانُ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْماً. وَ لَا بَأْسَ بِأَمْشَاطِ الْعَاجِ وَ الْمَكَاحِلِ وَ الْمَدَاهِنِ[4]

وَ قَالَ مُوسَى بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ع- تَمَشَّطُوا بِالْعَاجِ فَإِنَّهُ يَذْهَبُ بِالْوَبَاءِ.

Hadith.322 - Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim (as) said: "Comb your hair with combs made of ivory, for it removes ailments."

الْمَشْطُ[1] يَذْهَبُ بِالْوَبَاءِ. وَ هُوَ الْحُمَّى وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَرْقِيِ يَذْهَبُ بِالْوَنَا. وَ هُوَ الضَّعْفُ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ- وَ لا تَنِيا فِي ذِكْرِي أَيْ لَا تَضْعُفَا

ثَلَاثٌ مَنْ عَرَفَهُنَّ لَمْ يَدَعْهُنَّ جَزُّ الشَّعْرِ وَ تَشْمِيرُ الثَّوْبِ وَ نِكَاحُ الْإِمَاءِ

لِبَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ اسْتَأْصِلْ شَعْرَكَ يَقِلُّ دَرَنُهُ وَ دَوَابُّهُ وَ وَسَخُهُ[2] وَ تَغْلُظُ رَقَبَتُكَ وَ يَجْلُو بَصَرَكَ وَ يَسْتَرِيحُ بَدَنُكَ

مَنِ اتَّخَذَ شَعْراً فَلْيُحْسِنْ وِلَايَتَهُ أَوْ لِيَجُزَّهُ

وَ قَالَ ع‌ الشَّعْرُ الْحَسَنُ مِنْ كِسْوَةِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى فَأَكْرِمُوهُ.

Hadith.327 - He (as) said: "Beautiful hair is part of Allah’s (swt) provision, so honor it."

مَنِ اتَّخَذَ شَعْراً فَلَمْ يَفْرُقْهُ فَرَقَهُ اللَّهُ بِمِنْشَارٍ مِنْ نَارٍ[3]. وَ كَانَ شَعْرُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص وَفْرَةً لَمْ يَبْلُغِ الْفَرْقَ[4]

حُفُّوا الشَّوَارِبَ وَ أَعْفُوا اللِّحَى وَ لَا تَشَبَّهُوا بِالْيَهُودِ

وَ نَظَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِلَى رَجُلٍ طَوِيلِ اللِّحْيَةِ فَقَالَ مَا كَانَ هَذَا لَوْ هَيَّأَ مِنْ لِحْيَتِهِ‌[1] فَبَلَغَ الرَّجُلَ ذَلِكَ فَهَيَّأَ مِنْ لِحْيَتِهِ بَيْنَ اللِّحْيَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ص فَلَمَّا رَآهُ قَالَ هَكَذَا فَافْعَلُوا.

Hadith.330 - "The Messenger of Allah (sw) once saw (looked) a man with a long beard, and said: "It would have been better if he had trimmed his beard. When the man heard this, he trimmed his beard to a moderate length. Then entered to see the Prophet. When the Prophet saw him, He (sw) said: "This is how you should do i

إِنَّ الْمَجُوسَ جَزُّوا لِحَاهُمْ وَ وَفَّرُوا شَوَارِبَهُمْ وَ إِنَّا نَجُزُّ الشَّوَارِبَ وَ نُعْفِي اللِّحَى وَ هِيَ الْفِطْرَةُ

مَا زَادَ مِنَ اللِّحْيَةِ عَنْ قَبْضَةٍ فَهُوَ فِي النَّارِ

وَ قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ‌ رَأَيْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ الْبَاقِرَ ع- وَ الْحَجَّامُ يَأْخُذُ مِنْ لِحْيَتِهِ فَقَالَ دَوِّرْهَا.

Hadith.333 - Muhammad ibn Muslim said: "I saw Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) while the barber was trimming his beard, and Imam (as) said: 'Shape it evenly.'

تَقْبِضُ بِيَدِكَ عَلَى لِحْيَتِكَ وَ تَجُزُّ مَا فَضَلَ

الشَّيْبُ فِي مُقَدَّمِ الرَّأْسِ يُمْنٌ وَ فِي الْعَارِضَيْنِ سَخَاءٌ وَ فِي الذَّوَائِبِ شَجَاعَةٌ وَ فِي الْقَفَا شُؤْمٌ

أَوَّلُ مَنْ شَابَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ الْخَلِيلُ ع وَ إِنَّهُ ثَنَى لِحْيَتَهُ فَرَأَى طَاقَةً بَيْضَاءَ فَقَالَ يَا جَبْرَئِيلُ مَا هَذَا فَقَالَ هَذَا وَقَارٌ فَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ اللَّهُمَّ زِدْنِي وَقَاراً

وَ قَالَ ع‌ مَنْ شَابَ شَيْبَةً فِي الْإِسْلَامِ كَانَتْ لَهُ نُوراً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ.

Hadith.337 - Imam (as) said: "Whoever grows a gray hair in Islam, it will be a light for them on the Day of Judgment."

الشَّيْبُ نُورٌ فَلَا تَنْتِفُوهُ

«وَ كَانَ عَلِيٌّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ لاَ يَرَى بِجَزِّ اَلشَّيْبِ بَأْساً وَ يَكْرَهُ نَتْفَهُ.

Hadith.339 - "It is reported that Imam Ali (as) saw no harm in cutting gray hair but disliked plucking it."

الصَّادِقَ ع يَقُولُ- لَا بَأْسَ بِجَزِّ الشَّمَطِ[1] وَ نَتْفِهِ وَ جَزُّهُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ نَتْفِهِ. فَأَخْبَارُهُمْ ع لَا تَخْتَلِفُ فِي حَالَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ لِأَنَّ مَخْرَجَهَا مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى ذِكْرُهُ وَ إِنَّمَا تَخْتَلِفُ بِحَسَبِ اخْتِلَافِ الْأَحْوَالِ.

Hadith.340 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) says: "There is no harm in cutting gray hair or plucking it, but cutting it is more beloved to me than plucking it."

أَرْبَعٌ مِنْ أَخْلَاقِ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ ع التَّطَيُّبُ وَ التَّنْظِيفُ بِالْمُوسَى وَ حَلْقُ الْجَسَدِ بِالنُّورَةِ وَ كَثْرَةُ الطَّرُوقَةِ

وَ قَالَ ع‌ قَلِّمُوا أَظْفَارَكُمْ يَوْمَ الثَّلَاثَاءِ- وَ اسْتَحِمُّوا يَوْمَ الْأَرْبِعَاءِ- وَ أَصِيبُوا مِنَ الْحِجَامَةِ حَاجَتَكُمْ يَوْمَ الْخَمِيسِ- وَ تَطَيَّبُوا بِأَطْيَبِ طِيبِكُمْ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ.

Hadith.342 - Imam (as) said: "Trim your nails on Tuesday, bathe on Wednesday, fulfil your need for cupping (hijama) on Thursday, and use your best fragrance on Jumu’ah."

وَ سُئِلَ الصَّادِقُ ع‌ لِأَيِّ عِلَّةٍ يُغْسَلُ الْمَيِّتُ قَالَ تَخْرُجُ مِنْهُ النُّطْفَةُ الَّتِي خُلِقَ مِنْهَا تَخْرُجُ مِنْ عَيْنَيْهِ أَوْ مِنْ فِيهِ وَ مَا يَخْرُجُ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا حَتَّى يَرَى مَكَانَهُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ أَوْ مِنَ النَّارِ.

Hadith.375 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) was asked: "For what reason is the deceased washed (given ghusl)?" Imam (as) said: "The drop that he was created from, exits from their eyes or their mouth, and no one leaves this world until they see their place in either Paradise or the Fire."

كَانَ فِيمَا نَاجَى بِهِ- مُوسَى بْنُ عِمْرَانَ ع رَبَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنْ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ مَا بَلَغَ مِنْ عِيَادَةِ الْمَرِيضِ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ قَالَ أُوَكِّلُ بِهِ مَلَكاً يَعُودُهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ إِلَى مَحْشَرِهِ قَالَ يَا رَبِّ فَمَا لِمَنْ غَسَلَ الْمَوْتَى قَالَ أَغْسِلُهُ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ- كَيَوْمَ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ[1]

وَ قَالَ ع- مَنْ غَسَّلَ مَيِّتاً مُؤْمِناً فَأَدَّى فِيهِ الْأَمَانَةَ غَفَرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ قِيلَ وَ كَيْفَ يُؤَدِّي فِيهِ الْأَمَانَةَ قَالَ لَا يُخْبِرُ بِمَا يَرَاهُ وَ حَدُّهُ‌[2] إِلَى أَنْ يُدْفَنَ الْمَيِّتُ.

Hadith.388 - The Imam (as) said: "Whoever washes a deceased believer and fulfils the trust in that act, Allah (swt) will forgive them." It was asked: "How does one fulfil the trust in this matter?" Imam (as) replied: "By not disclosing what they see and maintaining their duty until the deceased is buried."

أَيُّمَا مُؤْمِنٍ غَسَّلَ مُؤْمِناً فَقَالَ إِذَا قَلَّبَهُ- اللَّهُمَّ هَذَا بَدَنُ عَبْدِكَ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَ قَدْ أَخْرَجْتَ رُوحَهُ مِنْهُ وَ فَرَّقْتَ بَيْنَهُمَا فَعَفْوَكَ عَفْوَكَ عَفْوَكَ[3]- إِلَّا غَفَرَ اللَّهُ ذُنُوبَ سَنَةٍ إِلَّا الْكَبَائِرَ

مَنْ غَسَّلَ مَيِّتاً فَسَتَرَ وَ كَتَمَ خَرَجَ مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ كَيَوْمَ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ[6]

Hadith.423 - Ammar ibn Musa al-Sabati asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) about a woman who dies in a state of postpartum bleeding (nifas).

Hadith.436 - Ammar ibn Musa al-Sabati asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) about a man who dies and is accompanied by no Muslim men or female Muslim relatives.

«تَغْتَسِلُ اَلنَّصْرَانِيَّةُ ثُمَّ تُغَسِّلُهَا.

Hadith.437 - The Imam was asked about a Muslim woman who dies and is accompanied by no Muslim women or male Muslim relatives, but there is Christian woman and Muslim men present. Imam (as) replied: "The Christian woman should first perform ghusl (ritual washing for herself), and then She should wash the deceased."

وَ قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ع‌ إِذَا مَاتَ الْمَيِّتُ فِي الْبَحْرِ غُسِّلَ وَ حُنِّطَ وَ كُفِّنَ ثُمَّ يُوثَقُ فِي رِجْلِهِ حَجَرٌ وَ يُرْمَى بِهِ فِي الْمَاءِ.

«نَعَمْ إِنَّمَا هِيَ تَكْبِيرٌ وَ تَسْبِيحٌ وَ تَحْمِيدٌ وَ تَهْلِيلٌ كَمَا تُكَبِّرُ وَ تُسَبِّحُ فِي بَيْتِكَ.
