791 - وَ سَأَلَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ اَلْجَعْفَرِيُّ اَلْعَبْدَ اَلصَّالِحَ مُوسَى بْنَ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَأْتِي اَلسُّوقَ فَيَشْتَرِي جُبَّةَ فِرَاءٍ لاَ يَدْرِي أَ ذَكِيَّةٌ هِيَ أَمْ غَيْرُ ذَكِيَّةٍ أَ يُصَلِّي فِيهَا فَقَالَ «نَعَمْ لَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمُ اَلْمَسْأَلَةُ إِنَّ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ كَانَ يَقُولُ «إِنَّ اَلْخَوَارِجَ ضَيَّقُوا عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ بِجَهَالَتِهِمْ إِنَّ اَلدِّينَ أَوْسَعُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ».
Hadith.791 - Suleiman ibn Jaafar al-Ja'fari asked the righteous servant Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim about a man who goes to the market and buys a fur garment without knowing if it is from a properly slaughtered (halal) animal or not. Can he pray in it?
Imam
said: "Yes, you are not obligated to inquire about that. Abu Ja'far
used to say, 'The Khawarij (a group known for extreme practices) imposed restrictions upon themselves out of ignorance; indeed, religion is more accommodating than that.'".
