5 Aḥadīth

1ـ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْوَشَّاءِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَائِذٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَبِي الْعَلاءِ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنِ الْغُسْلِ إِذَا زَارَ الْبَيْتَ مِنْ مِنًى فَقَالَ أَنَا أَغْتَسِلُ مِنْ مِنًى ثُمَّ أَزُورُ الْبَيْتَ.


1. Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Mu‘alla’ ibn Muhammad from al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Washsha’ from Ahmad ibn ‘A’idh from al-Husayn ibn abu al-‘Ala’ who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s), about Ghusl (bath) when visiting the House from Mina’. He (the Imam) said, ‘I take Ghusl (bath) in Mina’; then visit the House.’ ”

2ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنْ غُسْلِ الزِّيَارَةِ يَغْتَسِلُ الرَّجُلُ بِاللَّيْلِ وَيَزُورُ فِي اللَّيْلِ بِغُسْلٍ وَاحِدٍ أَ يُجْزِئُهُ ذَلِكَ قَالَ يُجْزِئُهُ مَا لَمْ يُحْدِثْ مَا يُوجِبُ وُضُوءاً فَإِنْ أَحْدَثَ فَلْيُعِدْ غُسْلَهُ بِاللَّيْلِ.


2. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who said: “I once asked abu al-Hassan (a.s), about Ghusl (bath) of Ziyarah, he does Ghusl during the night and visits (the House) with one Ghusl, is that sufficient?“ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is sufficient as long as things invalidating wudu does not take place, and if something as such takes place, one must take Ghusl again during the night. ‘“

3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ يَنْبَغِي لِلْمُتَمَتِّعِ أَنْ يَزُورَ الْبَيْتَ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ أَوْ مِنْ لَيْلَتِهِ وَلا يُؤَخِّرَ ذَلِكَ.


3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hammad from al-Halabiy who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s), has said, ‘It is very proper that one for al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous) visits the House on the day of al-Nahr (slaughtering the offering, 10th of Dhu al- Hajjah) or during this night and must not delay. ‘“(Fatwa best explains Hadith 1-3 of this Chapter)

4ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ وَصَفْوَانَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي زِيَارَةِ الْبَيْتِ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ قَالَ زُرْهُ فَإِنْ شُغِلْتَ فَلا يَضُرُّكَ أَنْ تَزُورَ الْبَيْتَ مِنَ الْغَدِ وَلا تُؤَخِّرْهُ أَنْ تَزُورَ مِنْ يَوْمِكَ فَإِنَّهُ يُكْرَهُ لِلْمُتَمَتِّعِ أَنْ يُؤَخِّرَهُ وَمُوَسَّعٌ لِلْمُفْرِدِ أَنْ يُؤَخِّرَهُ فَإِذَا أَتَيْتَ الْبَيْتَ يَوْمَ النَّحْرِ فَقُمْتَ عَلَى بَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ قُلْتَ اللهمَّ أَعِنِّي عَلَى نُسُكِكَ وَسَلِّمْنِي لَهُ وَسَلِّمْهُ لِي أَسْأَلُكَ مَسْأَلَةَ الْعَلِيلِ الذَّلِيلِ الْمُعْتَرِفِ بِذَنْبِهِ أَنْ تَغْفِرَ لِي ذُنُوبِي وَأَنْ تَرْجِعَنِي بِحَاجَتِي اللهمَّ إِنِّي عَبْدُكَ وَالْبَلَدُ بَلَدُكَ وَالْبَيْتُ بَيْتُكَ جِئْتُ أَطْلُبُ رَحْمَتَكَ وَأَؤُمُّ طَاعَتَكَ مُتَّبِعاً لأَمْرِكَ رَاضِياً بِقَدَرِكَ أَسْأَلُكَ مَسْأَلَةَ الْمُضْطَرِّ إِلَيْكَ الْمُطِيعِ لأَمْرِكَ الْمُشْفِقِ مِنْ عَذَابِكَ الْخَائِفِ لِعُقُوبَتِكَ أَنْ تُبَلِّغَنِي عَفْوَكَ وَتُجِيرَنِي مِنَ النَّارِ بِرَحْمَتِكَ ثُمَّ تَأْتِي الْحَجَرَ الأَسْوَدَ فَتَسْتَلِمُهُ وَتُقَبِّلُهُ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَسْتَطِعْ فَاسْتَلِمْهُ بِيَدِكَ وَقَبِّلْ يَدَكَ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَسْتَطِعْ فَاسْتَقْبِلْهُ وَكَبِّرْ وَقُلْ كَمَا قُلْتَ حِينَ طُفْتَ بِالْبَيْتِ يَوْمَ قَدِمْتَ مَكَّةَ ثُمَّ طُفْ بِالْبَيْتِ سَبْعَةَ أَشْوَاطٍ كَمَا وَصَفْتُ لَكَ يَوْمَ قَدِمْتَ مَكَّةَ ثُمَّ صَلِّ عِنْدَ مَقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) رَكْعَتَيْنِ تَقْرَأُ فِيهِمَا بِقُلْ هُوَ الله أَحَدٌ وَقُلْ يَا أَيُّهَا الْكَافِرُونَ ثُمَّ ارْجِعْ إِلَى الْحَجَرِ الأَسْوَدِ فَقَبِّلْهُ إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ وَاسْتَقْبِلْهُ وَكَبِّرْ ثُمَّ اخْرُجْ إِلَى الصَّفَا فَاصْعَدْ عَلَيْهِ وَاصْنَعْ كَمَا صَنَعْتَ يَوْمَ دَخَلْتَ مَكَّةَ ثُمَّ ائْتِ الْمَرْوَةَ فَاصْعَدْ عَلَيْهَا وَطُفْ بَيْنَهُمَا سَبْعَةَ أَشْوَاطٍ تَبْدَأُ بِالصَّفَا وَتَخْتِمُ بِالْمَرْوَةِ فَإِذَا فَعَلْتَ ذَلِكَ فَقَدْ أَحْلَلْتَ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ أَحْرَمْتَ مِنْهُ إِلاَّ النِّسَاءَ ثُمَّ ارْجِعْ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ وَطُفْ بِهِ أُسْبُوعاً آخَرَ ثُمَّ صَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ عِنْدَ مَقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) ثُمَّ أَحْلَلْتَ مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ وَفَرَغْتَ مِنْ حَجِّكَ كُلِّهِ وَكُلِّ شَيْ‏ءٍ أَحْرَمْتَ مِنْهُ.


4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father and Muhammad ibn Isma‘il from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr and Safwan ibn Yahya from Mu‘awiyah ibn ‘Ammar, who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s), has said, ‘You may perform Tawaf of Ziyarat on the tenth of Dhu al-Hajjah. If you cannot find time, you can perform it the next day. One who performs al-Hajj al- Tamattu‘ should not delay; but one who performs al-Mufrid al-Hajj may delay it. On the tenth, when you come to the House, stand up on the door of the Masjid al-Haram (the Sacred Masjid) and say, “O Allah, help me to perform the acts of my al-Hajj, protect me and protect my acts. I appeal before You like one suffering from illness, like a humble one confessing to his sins to forgive my sins and return me with my wishes made to come true. O Allah, I am Your servant, the town is Your town and the House is Your House. I have come seeking Your kindness, with the intention to obey You, follow Your command and accept Your determination. I appeal before you like a disparate person who is obedient to Your command, is afraid of Your punishment, and fearful of Your torment. I appeal to forgive me and grant me protection against hellfire through Your mercy.” Thereafter go to the Black Stone, touch and kiss it. If you cannot do so, just touch it and kiss your hand and if you cannot do so, turn your face to it and say Takhir (Allah is great beyond description) and say what you had said when performing Tawaf on the day you entered Makkah. Then perform Tawaf seven times as I explained to you the day you entered Makkah. Then perform two Rak‘at salat (prayer) near the station of Ibrahim. Read Chapter 112 and 109, then return to the Black Stone to kiss, if possible; or face it and say Takhir (Allah is great beyond description), then go to al-Safa, climb it and do as you had done on the day you entered Makkah. Then go to al-Marwah, climb it and walk seven times between the two places, beginning from al-Safa and ending at al-Marwah. When you do this, prohibited matters imposed on you become lawful, except women. Then go to the House and perform Tawaf seven times, perform two Rak‘at salat (prayer) near the station of Ibrahim; then all prohibitions imposed on you become lawful and your al-Hajj is complete. ‘“

5ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ مُتَمَتِّعٌ زَارَ الْبَيْتَ فَطَافَ طَوَافَ الْحَجِّ ثُمَّ طَافَ طَوَافَ النِّسَاءِ ثُمَّ سَعَى فَقَالَ لا يَكُونُ السَّعْيُ إِلاَّ قَبْلَ طَوَافِ النِّسَاءِ فَقُلْتُ عَلَيْهِ شَيْ‏ءٌ فَقَالَ لا يَكُونُ السَّعْيُ إِلاَّ قَبْلَ طَوَافِ النِّسَاءِ.


5. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from those whom he has mentioned who has said the following: “I once asked abu al-Hassan (a.s), about a man for al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous), saying , ‘I pray to Allah to keep my soul in service for your cause, if he can visit the House, perform Tawaf of al-Hajj, then Tawaf al-Nisa’, then Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah. He (the Imam) said, ‘Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al-Marwah is not obligatory except before Tawaf al-Nisa I then asked, ’Does he owe anything upon him because of this?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘The Sa‘y between al-Safa’ and al- Marwah is not obligatory except before Tawaf al-Nisa”
