إِنْ نَسِيتَ مَسْحَ رَأْسِكَ فَامْسَحْ عَلَيْهِ وَ عَلَى رِجْلَيْكَ مِنْ بِلَّةِ وَضُوئِكَ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ بَقِيَ فِي يَدِكَ مِنْ نَدَاوَةِ وَضُوئِكَ شَيْءٌ فَخُذْ مِمَّا بَقِيَ مِنْهُ فِي لِحْيَتِكَ وَ امْسَحْ بِهِ رَأْسَكَ وَ رِجْلَيْكَ وَ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَكَ لِحْيَةٌ فَخُذْ مِنْ حَاجِبَيْكَ وَ أَشْفَارِ عَيْنَيْكَ وَ امْسَحْ بِهِ رَأْسَكَ وَ رِجْلَيْكَ وَ إِنْ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْ بِلَّةِ وَضُوئِكَ شَيْءٌ أَعَدْت
