سَأَلْتُ الشَّيْخَ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَسْتَيْقِظُ مِنْ نَوْمِهِ وَ لَمْ يَبُلْ أَ يُدْخِلُ يَدَهُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَغْسِلَهَا قَالَ لَا لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَدْرِي أَيْنَ كَانَتْ يَدُهُ فَلْيَغْسِلْهَا.
“I once asked the Shaykh, ’Is it permissible for a man who wakes up to place his hand in the water container before urinating?’ He (the Imam) replied, ‘No, he cannot do so because he does not know where his hands may have been. He must wash them first.’”
فِي الرَّجُلِ الْجُنُبِ يَسْهُو فَيَغْمِسُ يَدَهُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَغْسِلَهَا أَنَّهُ لَا بَأْسَ إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ أَصَابَ يَدَهُ شَيْءٌ.
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘Can a man immerse his hands in the water container before washing them?’ He (the Imam) replied, ‘Yes, he can do so, provided they have not touched any unclean substance.’”
سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يَبُولُ وَ لَمْ يَمَسَّ يَدَهُ شَيْءٌ أَ يَغْمِسُهَا فِي الْمَاءِ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَ إِنْ كَانَ جُنُباً.
“I once asked one of the two Imam, ‘Alayhim al-Salam, about a man who urinates but does not touch anything, must he wash it with water? He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, if he has experienced sexual relation.’”
سُئِلَ كَمْ يُفْرِغُ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى يَدِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُدْخِلَهَا فِي الْإِنَاءِ قَالَ وَاحِدَةً مِنْ حَدَثِ الْبَوْلِ وَ ثِنْتَيْنِ مِنَ الْغَائِطِ وَ ثَلَاثَةً مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ.
He (the Imam) said, ‘Once, because of urination, twice because of defecation and three times because of sexual relation.’”
قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع الرَّجُلُ يَضَعُ الْكُوزَ الَّذِي يَغْرِفُ بِهِ مِنَ الْحُبِّ فِي مَكَانٍ قَذِرٍ ثُمَّ يُدْخِلُهُ الْحُبَّ قَالَ يَصُبُّ مِنَ الْمَاءِ ثَلَاثَةَ أَكُفٍّ ثُمَّ يَدْلُكُ الْكُوزَ[1].
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a mug with which one takes water from a large water container but one places it on a dirty place, then immerses it in the large water container. He (the Imam) said, ‘He must pour water on the mug three times and rub it.’”
فِي مِيزَابَيْنِ سَالا أَحَدُهُمَا بَوْلٌ وَ الْآخَرُ مَاءُ الْمَطَرِ فَاخْتَلَطَا فَأَصَابَ ثَوْبَ رَجُلٍ لَمْ يَضُرَّهُ ذَلِكَ.
“I once asked abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), about two drain-shoots; one is rain water and the other urine which mix with each other and drops thereof sprinkle over one’s clothes. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful (when it still is raining).”’
لَوْ أَنَّ مِيزَابَيْنِ سَالا أَحَدُهُمَا مِيزَابُ بَوْلٍ وَ الْآخَرُ مِيزَابُ مَاءٍ فَاخْتَلَطَا ثُمَّ أَصَابَكَ مَا كَانَ بِهِ بَأْسٌ.
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that if two drain-shoots, one with rain water and the other with urine mix, and drops thereof sprinkle over one’s clothes, it is not harmful for him.”
قُلْتُ أَمُرُّ فِي الطَّرِيقِ فَيَسِيلُ عَلَيَّ الْمِيزَابُ فِي أَوْقَاتٍ أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ النَّاسَ يَتَوَضَّئُونَ قَالَ قَالَ لَيْسَ بِهِ بَأْسٌ لَا تَسْأَلْ عَنْهُ قُلْتُ وَ يَسِيلُ عَلَيَّ مِنْ مَاءِ الْمَطَرِ أَرَى فِيهِ التَّغَيُّرَ وَ أَرَى فِيهِ آثَارَ الْقَذَرِ فَتَقْطُرُ الْقَطَرَاتُ عَلَيَّ وَ يَنْتَضِحُ عَلَيَّ مِنْهُ وَ الْبَيْتُ يُتَوَضَّأُ عَلَى سَطْحِهِ فَيَكِفُ عَلَى ثِيَابِنَا قَالَ مَا بِذَا بَأْسٌ لَ
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘I sometimes, pass by and water from a drain-shoot falls on me. At such time, I know, people take Wudu’. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful. You do not need to ask (inquire).’ I (the narrator) then asked, ‘What happens if rain water falls on me and I see its color is changed; th

“I once asked abu al-Hassan (a.s.), about soil which is found with rain water. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful up to three days unless it is found out to have become Najis (unclean) by something after rainfall. If such drops sprinkle after three days, then you must wash, but if the road is clean, then you do not

“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘I may use the toilet and then wash to clean myself but my clothes touch the water which was used for cleaning. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful.’”
فِي الْجُنُبِ يَغْتَسِلُ فَيَقْطُرُ الْمَاءُ عَنْ جَسَدِهِ فِي الْإِنَاءِ وَ يَنْتَضِحُ الْمَاءُ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ فَيَصِيرُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ إِنَّهُ لَا بَأْسَ بِهَذَا كُلِّهِ.
“It is about the case of a man who takes Ghusl (bath) and water-drops from his body sprinkle into the water container and from the ground. Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘It is not harmful.’”
فِي الرَّجُلِ الْجُنُبِ يَغْتَسِلُ فَيَنْتَضِحُ مِنَ الْمَاءِ فِي الْإِنَاءِ فَقَالَ لَا بَأْسَ ما جَعَلَ عَلَيْكُمْ فِي الدِّينِ مِنْ حَرَجٍ.
“It is about a man who takes Ghusl (bath) due to sexual matters and water drops sprinkle into the water container. Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘It is not harmful. Allah has not sanctioned anything in religion which causes hardships for you.”’
قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَغْتَسِلُ فِي مُغْتَسَلٍ يُبَالُ فِيهِ وَ يُغْتَسَلُ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ فَيَقَعُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ مَاءٌ يَنْزُو مِنَ الْأَرْضِ فَقَالَ لَا بَأْسَ بِهِ.
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘I may take Ghusl (bath) in a place which is used for taking Ghusl (bath) due to sexual matters, and urination and water-drops sprinkle from the ground into the water container.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful.’”

“Abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Do not take Ghusl (bath) from a well in which water from bath houses accumulate, because in it there is water which is used by one born out of wedlock and it does not become clean for seven generations. In it there is water used by one hostile to ’A’immah, ‘Alayhim al-Salam. One who i

“Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), has said, ‘Water of bathhouses does not have problems if it is water from a large source; like a fountain.’”
سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا يَقُولُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِنِّي أَدْخُلُ الْحَمَّامَ فِي السَّحَرِ وَ فِيهِ الْجُنُبُ وَ غَيْرُ ذَلِكَ فَأَقُومُ فَأَغْتَسِلُ فَيَنْتَضِحُ عَلَيَّ بَعْدَ مَا أَفْرُغُ مِنْ مَائِهِمْ قَالَ أَ لَيْسَ هُوَ جَارٍ قُلْتُ[2] بَلَى قَالَ لَا بَأْسَ.
“I once heard a man saying to abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘In the morning I enter the bathhouse and there is one who has experienced sexual relation and so on. I then stand up and take Ghusl (bath) and water from them sprinkles on me after I finish.’ He (the Imam) asked, ‘Is it not running water?’

“Abu al-Hassan, the one before (a.s.), was asked about accumulated water in bathhouses used by people which pollutes clothes. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful.’”

‘Do not use water which is heated by sun rays for Wudu’, Ghusl (bath) or to turn flour into dough with it; it causes leprosy.’”
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مِنْ فِقْهِ الرَّجُلِ أَنْ يَرْتَادَ مَوْضِعاً لِبَوْلِهِ[1].
“Abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah has said, ’It is of proper understanding (of law) for a man to search for and prepare a place for urination.’”

“Abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that once a man asked Ali ibn Al-Husayn (a.s.), ‘Where should outsiders take Wudu’?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘They should avoid places like the banks of the canals, open roads, under fruit-bearing trees and places that may subject one to public condemnation.’ Someone asked, ‘What kind of pl

He (the Imam) said, ‘One should not face the direction of al-Ka‘bah, turn one’s back toward al-Ka‘bah, face the direction from which wind blows or turn one’s back to such direction.’” It is narrated in another Hadith that one should not face towa

“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that the Holy prophet prohibited one’s allowing his urine to sprinkle from rooftops or high places in the air.”

5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated in a marfu‘ manner the following: “Once, abu Hanifah came out of a meeting with abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam. Abu al-Hassan, Musa, a young boy at that time, was standing in the meeting place. Abu Hanifah asked him, ‘O young man, where does an outsider relieve himself of nature’s dema

‘Three characteristics subject one to condemnation: Defecating in the shadows which are used as rest areas, obstructing people from reaching water for public use or public road.”

‘When going to a restroom say, “In the name of Allah, O Lord, I seek protection with You against filth and the filthy, unclean Satan, condemned to be stoned.” When coming out of a restroom say, “In the name of Allah, all praise belongs to Allah who has saved me from filth and filthy materials and has removed from me ha

“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that when you mention the name of Allah in your Wudu’, the whole of your body is cleansed, but if you do not mention the name of Allah only the parts of your body over which water has passed are cleansed.”

“I heard abu al-Hassan, al-Rida (a.s.), say, ‘One should get rid of remaining feces and urine by washing what is outside of the buttocks and there is no need to enter one’s fingers inside.’”
سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسْتَنْجِيَ بِأَيِّمَا يَبْدَأُ بِالْمَقْعَدَةِ أَوْ بِالْإِحْلِيلِ فَقَالَ بِالْمَقْعَدَةِ ثُمَّ بِالْإِحْلِيلِ.
‘It is buttocks, then urethra.’”
نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص أَنْ يَسْتَنْجِيَ الرَّجُلُ بِيَمِينِهِ.
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that the Holy Prophet prohibited using one’s right hand to wash one’s buttocks and urethra.”

“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that washing one’s self with the right hand after using toilet is of injustice.” It is narrated in another Hadith that it is permissible if there something is wrong with the left hand.”
إِذَا انْقَطَعَتْ دِرَّةُ الْبَوْلِ فَصُبَّ الْمَاءَ.
“Abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that when the gushing out of urine stops, you can pour water to wash it clean.”

“Once abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), was asked about a man whose thigh and knee come in contact with a small drop of urine. He performs Salah (prayer) then remembers that he had not washed it clean? He (the Imam) said, ‘He must perform his Salah (prayer) again.’”

“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘A man wants to wash himself clean after using toilet. How should he sit?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘He sits just as he does when defecating.’ He (the Imam) then said, ‘He only needs to wash the outside and not the inside.’”

the Holy prophet once said to a certain one of his wives, ‘Instruct the believing women to wash themselves clean with water thoroughly; it cleanses the surrounding areas and removes the hemorrhoids.’”

Muhammad ibn ’Isma‘il has narrated from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan and Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ibn abu ‘Umayr from Jamil ibn Darraj who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, about the words of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, ‘Allah loves those who repent and cleanse them

“One day I performed ablution (wudu’), but I didn't wash my urethra, then I prayed. So I asked abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) about it. He said: “Wash your urethra and repeat your prayer.“
يَغْسِلُ ذَكَرَهُ يُعِيدُ الصَّلَاةَ وَ لَا يُعِيدُ الْوُضُوءَ.
“I once asked abu al-Hassan (a.s.), about a man who forgets to wash clean his urethra but he takes Wudu’ and performs Salah (prayer). He (the Imam) said, ’He must wash his urethra clean and perform his Salah (prayer) again, but he does not have to take Wudu’ again.’” H 3872, Ch. 12, h 16
يَغْسِلُ ذَكَرَهُ وَ يُعِيدُ الصَّلَاةَ وَ لَا يُعِيدُ الْوُضُوءَ.
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘After using toilet if you forget to wash clean your buttocks (because of feces) and take Wudu’, then remember after performing Salah (prayer), you must perform your Salah (prayer) again. If you wash your buttocks clean but forget washing your urethra clean and perform Salah (prayer),

I asked Abū Jaʿfar (AS) about a man who urinates but does not have water with him (for purification). He replied: He should squeeze the base of his penis to its tip three times and then shake the tip. If anything comes out after that, it is not from urine but from the ḥabā'il (moisture from passageways and veins).

“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who urinates, then takes Wudu. He then stands up for Salah (prayer) and finds a certain moisture. He (the Imam) said, ’He does not need Wudu; it is of Haba’il (passageways, veins).”
سَأَلَ الرِّضَا ع رَجُلٌ وَ أَنَا حَاضِرٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّ بِي جُرْحاً فِي مَقْعَدَتِي فَأَتَوَضَّأُ وَ أَسْتَنْجِي ثُمَّ أَجِدُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ النَّدَى وَ الصُّفْرَةَ مِنَ الْمَقْعَدَةِ أَ فَأُعِيدُ الْوُضُوءَ فَقَالَ وَ قَدْ أَنْقَيْتَ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ لَا وَ لَكِنْ رُشَّهُ بِالْمَاءِ وَ لَا تُعِدِ الْوُضُوءَ. - أَحْمَدُ عَنْ أَبِي نَصْرٍ قَالَ سَأَلَ الرِّضَا ع رَجُلٌ بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِ صَفْوَانَ.
“Once a man asked al-Rida (a.s.), when I was present, saying, ‘There is a wound in my anus. I take Wudu and wash clean; but then I find wetness and yellowness there. Do I need to take Wudu again ? He (the Imam) said, ‘Had you cleaned it? He replied, ‘Yes, I did so.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘No, but pour water on it and you
سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع فَقَالَ رُبَّمَا بُلْتُ وَ لَمْ أَقْدِرْ عَلَى الْمَاءِ وَ يَشْتَدُّ عَلَيَّ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ إِذَا بُلْتَ وَ تَمَسَّحْتَ فَامْسَحْ ذَكَرَكَ بِرِيقِكَ فَإِنْ وَجَدْتَ شَيْئاً فَقُلْ هَذَا مِنْ ذَاكَ[1].
“Once a man asked abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.), saying, ‘At times when I urinate, I cannot find water and it becomes severe for me . He (the Imam) said, ‘When you urinate and wipe it clean, you can then wipe your penis with saliva; and if you find something then say it is of that (moisture from passageways and veins).”
قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع الرَّجُلُ يَعْتَرِيهِ الْبَوْلُ وَ لَا يَقْدِرُ عَلَى حَبْسِهِ قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي إِذَا لَمْ يَقْدِرْ عَلَى حَبْسِهِ فَاللَّهُ أَوْلَى بِالْعُذْرِ يَجْعَلُ خَرِيطَةً[2].
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who has the urge to urinate and cannot hold it any longer. He (the Imam) said to me, ‘If he is not able to hold, Allah is the foremost to accept apologies, he can allow it to come out in a bag.”
يَتَوَضَّأُ ثُمَّ يَنْتَضِحُ فِي النَّهَارِ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً.
‘He must take Wudu and pour water on it once during the day.”
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنِ الْبَوْلِ يُصِيبُ الْجَسَدَ قَالَ صُبَّ عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ مَرَّتَيْنِ. - وَ رُوِيَ أَنَّهُ يُجْزِئُ أَنْ يَغْسِلَ بِمِثْلِهِ مِنَ الْمَاءِ[4] إِذَا كَانَ عَلَى رَأْسِ الْحَشَفَةِ وَ غَيْرِهِ. - وَ رُوِيَ أَنَّهُ مَاءٌ لَيْسَ بِوَسَخٍ فَيَحْتَاجَ أَنْ يُدْلَكَ.
“I once asked Abu ’Abdillah (a.s.), about urine which pollutes the body. He (the Imam) said: 'Pour water on it twice.' It is also narrated that one can wash it with the same amount of water if it is on the tip of the penis or on something else. It is also narrated that it is water and not dirt and it needs to be droppe
بَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع وَ أَنَا قَائِمٌ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَ مَعِي إِدَاوَةٌ أَوْ قَالَ كُوزٌ فَلَمَّا انْقَطَعَ شَخْبُ الْبَوْلِ قَالَ بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا[1] إِلَيَّ فَنَاوَلْتُهُ بِالْمَاءِ فَتَوَضَّأَ مَكَانَهُ.
8. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Husayn from ibn Faddal from Ghalib ibn ‘Uthman from Rawh ibn ‘Abd al-Rahim who said: “Once, abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.), urinated. I was standing nearby with a water container or a jug. When the jet of urine stopped, he (the Imam) made a gesture with his hand for water a
يَأْخُذُ أَحَدُكُمُ الرَّاحَةَ مِنَ الدُّهْنِ فَيَمْلَأُ بِهَا جَسَدَهُ وَ الْمَاءُ أَوْسَعُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ.
“Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), has said, ‘One of you in order to rub oil on his body covers his whole body with an amount of oil on his palm. Water, however, is more plentiful than this.”
