4404 - رَوَى مُوسَى بْنُ بَكْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ اَلْأَوَّلِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ قَالَ: "لاَ وَلِيمَةَ إِلاَّ فِي خَمْسٍ فِي عُرْسٍ أَوْ خُرْسٍ أَوْ عِذَارٍ أَوْ وِكَارٍ أَوْ رِكَازٍ فَالْعُرْسُ اَلتَّزْوِيجُ وَ اَلْخُرْسُ اَلنِّفَاسُ بِالْوَلَدِ وَ اَلْعِذَارُ اَلْخِتَانُ وَ اَلْوِكَارُ اَلرَّجُلُ يَشْتَرِي اَلدَّارَ وَ اَلرِّكَازُ اَلرَّجُلُ يَقْدَمُ مِنْ مَكَّةَ ".

Hadith.4404 - It is narrated by Musa ibn Bakr from Imam Abu al-Hasan al-Awwal (as), peace be upon him, that the Messenger of Allah (swt), peace and blessings be upon him and his family, said: "There is no feast except on five occasions; at a wedding, at childbirth (nifas), at circumcision, when a man buys a house, and upon returning from Hajj." The wedding refers to marriage, childbirth refers to the postnatal period, circumcision refers to the act of circumcision, buying a house refers to acquiring a new home, and returning from Hajj refers to returning from pilgrimage to Mecca.
