Chapter on What the Pilgrim in the State of Ihram Must Avoid: Obscenity, Sin, and Disputation During Hajj

فِي قَوْلِ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ «۝ اَلْحَجُّ أَشْهُرٌ مَعْلُومٰاتٌ فَمَنْ فَرَضَ فِيهِنَّ اَلْحَجَّ فَلاٰ رَفَثَ وَ لاٰ فُسُوقَ وَ لاٰ جِدٰالَ فِي اَلْحَجِّ ۝» فَقَالَ «إِنَّ اَللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ اِشْتَرَطَ عَلَى اَلنَّاسِ شَرْطاً وَ شَرَطَ لَهُمْ شَرْطاً فَمَنْ وَفَى لَهُ وَفَى اَللَّهُ لَهُ فَقَالاَ لَهُ فَمَا اَلَّذِي اِشْتَرَطَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَ مَا اَلَّذِي شَرَطَ لَهُمْ فَقَالَ أَمَّا اَلَّذِي اِشْتَرَطَ عَلَ

Hadith.2587 - Muhammad ibn Muslim and al-Halabi both narrated from Abu Abdullah (as) regarding the verse of Allah (swt), the Almighty: "Hajj is in the well-known months. So whoever has made Hajj obligatory upon himself therein, there is to be no obscenity (rafath), no sin (fusuq), and no disputing (jidal) during Hajj."

وَ قَالَ الصَّادِقُ ع‌[2] إِنْ وَقَعْتَ عَلَى أَهْلِكَ بَعْدَ مَا تَعْقِدُ لِلْإِحْرَامِ-

Hadith.2588 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "If you have intercourse with your spouse after entering the state of Ihram but before reciting the Talbiyah, there is nothing upon you. If you have intercourse while in the state of Ihram before standing at al-Mash'ar, you must offer a camel as a sacrifice and

عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «عَلَيْهِ جَزُورٌ كَوْمَاءُ» فَقَالَ لاَ يَقْدِرُ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «يَنْبَغِي لِأَصْحَابِهِ أَنْ يَجْمَعُوا لَهُ وَ لاَ يُفْسِدُوا عَلَيْهِ حَجَّهُ ».

Hadith.2589 - Abu Basir asked Imam (as) about a man who had intercourse with his wife while in the state of Ihram. Imam (as) said: "He must offer a large camel (jazur kawmā’)." Abu Basir said: "What if he cannot afford it?" Imam (as) replied: "It is upon his companions to contribute on his behalf, and they should not i

إِنْ كَانَ مُوسِراً فَعَلَيْهِ بَدَنَةٌ وَ إِنْ كَانَ وَسَطاً فَعَلَيْهِ بَقَرَةٌ وَ إِنْ كَانَ فَقِيراً فَعَلَيْهِ شَاةٌ وَ قَالَ إِنِّي لَمْ أَجْعَلْ عَلَيْهِ هَذَا لِأَنَّهُ أَمْنَى وَ لَكِنِّي جَعَلْتُهُ عَلَيْهِ لِأَنَّهُ نَظَرَ إِلَى مَا لَا يَحِلُّ لَهُ.

Hadith.2590 - Abu Basir asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a Muhrim (one in a state of Ihram) who looked at the leg of a woman or her private part and ejaculated. Imam (as) said: "If he is wealthy, he must offer a camel. If he is of moderate means, he must offer a cow. If he is poor, he must offer a sheep." Imam (as) added:

«إِنْ حَمَلَهَا أَوْ مَسَّهَا بِشَهْوَةٍ فَأَمْنَى أَوْ لَمْ يُمْنِ أَوْ أَمْذَى أَوْ لَمْ يُمْذِ فَعَلَيْهِ دَمُ شَاةٍ يُهَرِيقُهُ وَ إِنْ حَمَلَهَا أَوْ مَسَّهَا بِغَيْرِ شَهْوَةٍ فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْءٌ أَمْنَى أَوْ لَمْ يُمْنِ أَمْذَى أَوْ لَمْ يُمْذِ.

Hadith.2591 - Muhammad ibn Muslim asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a man who carries his wife or touches her, and as a result, ejaculates or emits pre-seminal fluid. Imam (as) said: "If he carries or touches her with lust, whether he ejaculates, does not ejaculate, emits pre-seminal fluid, or does not emit pre-seminal flu

أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنِ الْمُحْرِمِ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَعْمَلَ الْعَمَلَ فَيَقُولُ لَهُ أَصْحَابُهُ وَ اللَّهِ لَا تَعْمَلْهُ‌[3] فَيَقُولُ وَ اللَّهِ لَأَعْمَلَنَّهُ فَيُحَالِفُهُ مِرَاراً فَيَلْزَمُهُ مَا يَلْزَمُ صَاحِبَ الْجِدَالِ فَقَالَ لَا إِنَّمَا أَرَادَ بِهَذَا إِكْرَامَ أَخِيهِ إِنَّمَا يَلْزَمُهُ مَا كَانَ لِلَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مَعْصِيَةً.

I asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a Muhrim (one in the state of Ihram) who intends to perform a certain action, and his companions say to him, "By Allah (swt), do not do it." This person then replies, "By Allah (swt), I will do it," and they exchange such oaths repeatedly. Does this make him liable for what applies to on

"Avoid boasting, and adhere to piety that restrains you from disobedience to Allah (swt), the Almighty. Indeed, Allah (swt), the Almighty, says: 'Then let them complete their prescribed duties.' Among these duties is refraining from speaking foul words while in Ihram. When you enter Makkah and perform Tawaf around the
