عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَبِيعَةَ الرَّأْيِ يَقُولُ مِنْ رَأْيِي أَنَّ الْأَقْرَاءَ الَّتِي سَمَّى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِي الْقُرْآنِ إِنَّمَا هُوَ الطُّهْرُ فِيمَا بَيْنَ الْحَيْضَتَيْنِ فَقَالَ كَذَبَ لَمْ يَقُلْهُ بِرَأْيِهِ وَ لَكِنَّهُ إِنَّمَا بَلَغَهُ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ( صلوات الله عليه ) فَقُلْتُ أَصْلَحَكَ اللَّهُ أَ كَانَ عَلِيٌّ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ إِنَّمَا الْقُرْءُ الطُّهْرُ يَقْرِي فِيهِ الدَّمَ فَيَجْمَعُهُ فَإِذَا جَاءَ الْمَحِيضُ دَفَقَهُ .

1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from ‘Umar ibn ‘Udhaynah from Zurarah who has said the following: “I heard Rabi‘ al-Ra’iy saying, ‘It is my opinion that al-‘Iqra’ which Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, has mentioned in the Quran is nothing but Hayd (menses)-free period between the two Hayd (menses).’ He (the Imam) said, ‘He has spoken a lie. It is not his opinion. In fact it has reached him from Ali (a.s.).’ I then said, ‘I pray to Allah to keep you well, did Ali (a.s.), say so?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Al-Qur’ means clean. Blood stops coming out and accumulates. During Hayd (menses) it is pushed out.’” (Al-Qur’ means accumulates and Hayd means flows).

عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ وَ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ جَمِيعاً عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ الْقُرْءُ هُوَ مَا بَيْنَ الْحَيْضَتَيْنِ .

عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَمِيلٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ الْقُرْءُ هُوَ مَا بَيْنَ الْحَيْضَتَيْنِ .

3. Ali has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Jamil from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has said the following: “Abu Ja’far (a.s.), has said, ‘Al-Qur’ is the period between two Hayd (menses).”’

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَجَّالِ عَنْ ثَعْلَبَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ الْأَقْرَاءُ هِيَ الْأَطْهَارُ.
