Hadith.2541 - Hammad narrated from Hariz, who narrated from Abu Abdullah (as): Imam (as) saw no harm if a woman applied kohl, anointed herself with oil, and performed ghusl after doing all of this in preparation for Ihram.

وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ جَمِيلٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ‌ غُسْلُ يَوْمِكَ يُجْزِيكَ لِلَيْلَتِكَ وَ غُسْلُ لَيْلَتِكَ يُجْزِيكَ لِيَوْمِكَ‌[4].

Hadith.2542 - In a narration by Jamil, Imam (as) said: "The ghusl of your day suffices for your night, and the ghusl of your night suffices for your day."

«يَمْسَحُهَا بِالْمَاءِ وَ لاَ يُعِيدُ اَلْغُسْلَ».

Hadith.2543 - Abu Ja'far (as) was asked about a man who performed ghusl for his ihram and then trimmed his nails. Imam (as) replied: "He should wipe them with water and does not need to repeat the ghusl."

لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ رَوَى اَلْعِيصُ بْنُ اَلْقَاسِمِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ : سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَغْتَسِلُ لِلْإِحْرَامِ بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَ يَلْبَسُ ثَوْبَيْنِ ثُمَّ يَنَامُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُحْرِمَ قَالَ «لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ غُسْلٌ ». ومن اغتسل أول الليل ثم أحرم آخر الليل أجزأه غسله.

Hadith.2544 - Al-‘Ays ibn al-Qasim narrated from Abu Abdullah (as) that he said: "I asked him about a man who performs ghusl for ihram in Medina, wears the two garments of ihram, and then sleeps before assuming ihram. Imam (as) replied: 'There is no need for him to repeat the ghusl.'"

هَاتُوا مَا عِنْدَكُمْ مِنْ لُحُومِ الصَّيْدِ- فَأُتِيَ بِحَجَلَتَيْنِ‌[2] فَأَكَلَهُمَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يُحْرِمَ‌[3].

Hadith.2566 - In a narration from Aban, from Ali ibn Abdul Aziz, he said: "Abu Abdullah (as) performed ghusl at Dhu al-Hulayfah for Ihram, prayed, and then said: 'Bring me what you have from the meat of game.' Two partridges were brought to him, and he ate them before entering the state of Ihram."

وَ رَوَى جَابِرٌ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ‌ لَا بَأْسَ أَنْ يُلَبِّيَ الْجُنُبُ‌[5].

Hadith.2582 - Jabir narrated from Abu Ja'far (as) that he said: "There is no harm in a junub (someone in a state of major ritual impurity) reciting the Talbiyah."

Hadith.2599 - Muhammad ibn Muslim narrated from one of the Imams (as) that he was asked about a man entering Ihram in a dirty garment. Imam (as) said: "No, and I do not say it is forbidden, but what I prefer is that he purifies it. Its purification is through washing. A man should not wash the garment in which he enter

لَا بَأْسَ بِهِ إِذَا ذَهَبَ رِيحُهُ وَ لَوْ كَانَ مَصْبُوغاً كُلُّهُ إِذَا ضُرِبَ إِلَى الْبَيَاضِ‌ وَ غُسِلَ فَلَا بَأْسَ‌[1].

Hadith.2607 - Al-Husayn ibn Abi al-‘Ala’ asked Imam (as) about a garment for a Muhrim that has been stained with saffron and then washed. Imam (as) said: "There is no harm in it if the scent has been removed. Even if it has been entirely dyed, as long as it leans toward whiteness and has been washed, there is no harm i

لَا يَلْبَسْهُ حَتَّى يَغْسِلَهُ وَ إِحْرَامُهُ تَامٌ‌[6].

I asked him about a Muhrim whose garment is affected by janabah (ritual impurity). Imam (as) said: "He should not wear it until he washes it, and his state of Ihram remains valid."

لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع وَضَّأَنِي‌ الْغُلَامُ وَ أَنَا لَا أَعْلَمُ بدستشان‌[1] فِيهِ طِيبٌ فَغَسَلْتُ يَدَيَّ وَ أَنَا مُحْرِمٌ فَقَالَ تَصَدَّقْ بِشَيْ‌ءٍ لِذَلِكَ‌[2].

I said to Abu Abdullah (as): "My servant poured water for me to perform ablution, and I was unaware that there was fragrance (dustashan) in it. I then washed my hands while I was in Ihram." Imam (as) said: "Give something in charity as an expiation for that."

وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ حَازِمٍ قَالَ‌ رَأَيْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع وَ قَدْ تَوَضَّأَ وَ هُوَ مُحْرِمٌ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ مِنْدِيلًا فَمَسَحَ بِهِ وَجْهَهُ‌[6].

"I saw Abu Abdullah (as) perform ablution while he was in the state of ihram, and then he took a towel and wiped his face with it."

يَحُكُّ رَأْسَهُ مَا لَمْ يَتَعَمَّدْ قَتْلَ دَابَّةٍ وَ لَا بَأْسَ بِأَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ بِالْمَاءِ وَ يَصُبَّ عَلَى رَأْسَهُ مَا لَمْ يَكُنْ مُلَبِّداً فَإِنْ كَانَ مُلَبِّداً[3] فَلَا يُفِيضُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ الْمَاءَ إِلَّا مِنِ احْتِلَامٍ.

I asked him about a person in the state of ihram—can they scratch their head or wash it with water? Imam (as) said: "They may scratch their head as long as they do not intentionally kill an insect, and there is no harm in washing with water or pouring it over their head, as long as their head is not treated with a bind

«إِذَا اِغْتَسَلَ اَلْمُحْرِمُ مِنَ اَلْجَنَابَةِ صَبَّ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ اَلْمَاءَ وَ يَمِيزُ اَلشَّعْرَ بِأَنَامِلِهِ بَعْضَهُ مِنْ بَعْضٍ ».

إِنَّ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتَ عُمَيْسٍ نَفِسَتْ بِمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ- بِالْبَيْدَاءِ لِأَرْبَعٍ بَقِينَ مِنْ ذِي الْقَعْدَةِ فِي حَجَّةَ الْوَدَاعِ فَأَمَرَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص فَاغْتَسَلَتْ وَ احْتَشَتْ وَ أَحْرَمَتْ وَ لَبَّتْ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ص وَ أَصْحَابِهِ فَلَمَّا قَدِمُوا مَكَّةَ لَمْ تَطْهُرْ حَتَّى نَفَرُوا مِنْ مِنًى وَ قَدْ شَهِدَتِ الْمَوَاقِفَ كُلَّهَا- عَرَفَاتٍ وَ جَمْعاً وَ رَمَتِ الْجِمَارَ وَ لَك

Hadith.2755 - Mu'awiyah ibn Ammar narrated from Abu Abdullah (as): "Asma bint Umays gave birth to Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr at al-Bayda, four days before the end of Dhu al-Qa‘dah, during the Farewell Pilgrimage.

لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع الْمَرْأَةُ تَجِي‌ءُ مُتَمَتِّعَةً فَتَطْمَثُ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَطُوفَ بِالْبَيْتِ فَيَكُونُ طُهْرُهَا لَيْلَةَ عَرَفَةَ فَقَالَ ع إِنْ كَانَتْ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهَا تَطْهُرُ وَ تَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ وَ تَحِلُّ مِنْ إِحْرَامِهَا وَ تَلْحَقُ النَّاسَ بِمِنًى فَلْتَفْعَلْ.

I said to Abu Abdullah (as): "A woman performing tamattu‘ begins menstruating before she performs tawaf of the Kaaba, and her purification occurs on the night of Arafah. What should she do?" Imam (as) said: "If she knows that she will become pure, perform tawaf of the Kaaba, exit ihram, and join the people in Mina, the

يَغْتَسِلُ ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ فَيَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ تَمَامَ مَا بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ طَوَافِهِ وَ يَسْتَغْفِرُ رَبَّهُ وَ لَا يَعُودُ[3].

قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع‌ لَا بَأْسَ بِأَنْ‌ تَقْضِيَ الْمَنَاسِكَ كُلَّهَا عَلَى غَيْرِ وُضُوءٍ إِلَّا الطَّوَافَ بِالْبَيْتِ وَ الْوُضُوءُ أَفْضَلُ‌[1].

Hadith.2810 - It is narrated from Mu'awiyah ibn Ammar that Abu Abdullah (as) said: "There is no harm in completing all the rituals without being in a state of wudu, except for the tawaf around the Kaaba. However, performing wudu is better."

يَتَوَضَّأُ وَ يُعِيدُ طَوَافَهُ فَإِنْ كَانَ تَطَوُّعاً تَوَضَّأَ[2] وَ صَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ.

I asked him about a man who performed the obligatory tawaf without being in a state of purity (wudu). Imam (as) said: "He should perform wudu and repeat his tawaf. If it was a voluntary tawaf, he should perform wudu and pray two rak‘ahs."

«لاَ بَأْسَ بِأَنْ يَطُوفَ اَلرَّجُلُ اَلنَّافِلَةَ عَلَى غَيْرِ وُضُوءٍ ثُمَّ يَتَوَضَّأَ وَ يُصَلِّيَ وَ إِنْ طَافَ مُتَعَمِّداً عَلَى غَيْرِ وُضُوءٍ فَلْيَتَوَضَّأْ وَ لْيُصَلِّ ».

Hadith.2812 - In a narration from Ubayd ibn Zurarah, he reported from Imam (as) that he said: "There is no harm if a man performs the voluntary tawaf without being in a state of wudu, then performs wudu and prays. However, if he intentionally performs tawaf without wudu, he should perform wudu and then pray."

لِأَبِي الْحَسَنِ ع رَجُلٌ سَعَى بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَ الْمَرْوَةِ فَسَعَى ثَلَاثَةَ أَشْوَاطٍ أَوْ أَرْبَعَةً ثُمَّ بَالَ ثُمَّ أَتَمَّ سَعْيَهُ بِغَيْرِ وُضُوءٍ فَقَالَ لَا بَأْسَ وَ لَوْ أَتَمَّ مَنَاسِكَهُ بِوُضُوءٍ كَانَ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَ‌[4].

I asked Abu al-Hasan (as) about a man who performed the sa‘i between Safa and Marwa, completing three or four circuits, then urinated and completed the rest of his sa‘i without wudu. Imam (as) said: "There is no harm in it, but if he had completed his rituals with wudu, it would have been more preferable to me."
