Brushing One’s Teeth
4ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) فِي السِّوَاكِ قَالَ لاَ تَدَعْهُ فِي كُلِّ ثَلاَثٍ وَلَوْ أَنْ تُمِرَّهُ مَرَّةً.
4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from ibn Bukayr from those whom he has mentioned has said the following: “Abu Ja’far (a.s.), has said, ‘You must not neglect brushing after every third (Salah (prayer)) even though it is a light one (brushing).”’
5ـ عَلِيٌّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ قَالَ أَدْنَى السِّوَاكِ أَنْ تَدْلُكَ بِإِصْبَعِكَ.
5. Ali through his chain of narrators has narrated the following: “He (the Imam) (a.s.), has said, ‘The least for brushing is using one’s fingers as a tooth brush.”
6ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنِ الْمُعَلَّى أَبِي عُثْمَانَ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ خُنَيْسٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) عَنِ السِّوَاكِ بَعْدَ الْوُضُوءِ فَقَالَ الاسْتِيَاكُ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَتَوَضَّأَ قُلْتُ أَ رَأَيْتَ إِنْ نَسِيَ حَتَّى يَتَوَضَّأَ قَالَ يَسْتَاكُ ثُمَّ يَتَمَضْمَضُ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ. وَرُوِيَ أَنَّ السُّنَّةَ فِي السِّوَاكِ فِي وَقْتِ السَّحَرِ.
6. Ahmad ibn Idris has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan from al-Mu‘alla’ abu ‘Uthman from Mu’alla’ ibn Khunays who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about brushing one’s teeth after Wudu’. He (the Imam) said, ‘Brushing is before Wudu’.’ I then asked, ‘What should one do if he forgets and remembers only after Wudu’?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘In such case he should brush and then rinse his mouth three times.’”
7ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ بُنْدَارَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ الأحْمَرِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي سَمَّاكٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) إِذَا قُمْتَ بِاللَّيْلِ فَاسْتَكْ فَإِنَّ الْمَلَكَ يَأْتِيكَ فَيَضَعُ فَاهُ عَلَى فِيكَ وَلَيْسَ مِنْ حَرْفٍ تَتْلُوهُ وَتَنْطِقُ بِهِ إِلاَّ صَعِدَ بِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فَلْيَكُنْ فُوكَ طَيِّبَ الرِّيحِ.
7. Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Bundar has narrated from Ibrahim ibn Ishaq al-Ahmar from ‘Abd Allah ibn Hammad from abu Bakr ibn abu Sammak who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘When you wake up during the night (for Salah (prayer)) you should brush your teeth; the angel comes and places his mouth over your mouth. Every word you say, he climbs with it to the heaven. Your mouth should have a pleasant smell.’”

Description of Wudu’
1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبَانٍ وَجَمِيلٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ حَكَى لَنَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) وُضُوءَ رَسُولِ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) فَدَعَا بِقَدَحٍ فَأَخَذَ كَفّاً مِنْ مَاءٍ فَأَسْدَلَهُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ ثُمَّ مَسَحَ وَجْهَهُ مِنَ الْجَانِبَيْنِ جَمِيعاً ثُمَّ أَعَادَ يَدَهُ الْيُسْرَى فِي الإِنَاءِ فَأَسْدَلَهَا عَلَى يَدِهِ الْيُمْنَى ثُمَّ مَسَحَ جَوَانِبَهَا ثُمَّ أَعَادَ الْيُمْنَى فِي الإِنَاءِ فَصَبَّهَا عَلَى الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ صَنَعَ بِهَا كَمَا صَنَعَ بِالْيُمْنَى ثُمَّ مَسَحَ بِمَا بَقِيَ فِي يَدِهِ رَأْسَهُ وَرِجْلَيْهِ وَلَمْ يُعِدْهُمَا فِي الإِنَاءِ.
1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Yunus ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman from Aban and Jamil from Zurarah who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), once demonstrated for us how the Messenger of Allah would take Wudu. He asked for a glass of water. He (the Imam) then with some water in the palm of his hand allowed it to flow down his face and wiped both sides of his face. He (the Imam) then with some water in the palm of his left hand allowed it to flow down his right hand and then wiped both sides. He (the Imam) with some water in the palm of his right hand allowed it to flow over his left and did as he had done to his right hand. Thereafter he, with whatever was left on his hand, wiped his head and feet but he did not place his hands in the water container (again).”
2ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ عَنْ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ أَعْيَنَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ أَ لاَ أَحْكِي لَكُمْ وُضُوءَ رَسُولِ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) فَأَخَذَ بِكَفِّهِ الْيُمْنَى كَفّاً مِنْ مَاءٍ فَغَسَلَ بِهِ وَجْهَهُ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى كَفّاً مِنْ مَاءٍ فَغَسَلَ بِهِ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ الْيُمْنَى كَفّاً مِنْ مَاءٍ فَغَسَلَ بِهِ يَدَهُ الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ مَسَحَ بِفَضْلِ يَدَيْهِ رَأْسَهُ وَرِجْلَيْهِ.
2. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Dawud ibn al-Nu‘man from abu Ayyub from Bukayr ibn ’A‘yan who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), once said, ‘Allow me to demonstrate before you how the Messenger of Allah would take Wudu’. He (the Imam) then with some water in the palm of his right hand washed his face. He (the Imam) then with some water in the palm of his left hand washed his right hand. He (the Imam) then with some water in the palm of his right hand washed his left hand. He (the Imam) then with whatever water left in his hands wiped his head and feet.”
3ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنِ الْعَلاَءِ بْنِ رَزِينٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ يَأْخُذُ أَحَدُكُمُ الرَّاحَةَ مِنَ الدُّهْنِ فَيَمْلأُ بِهَا جَسَدَهُ وَ الْمَاءُ أَوْسَعُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ أَ لاَ أَحْكِي لَكُمْ وُضُوءَ رَسُولِ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ فَأَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ فِي الإِنَاءِ وَلَمْ يَغْسِلْ يَدَهُ فَأَخَذَ كَفّاً مِنْ مَاءٍ فَصَبَّهُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ ثُمَّ مَسَحَ جَانِبَيْهِ حَتَّى مَسَحَهُ كُلَّهُ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ كَفّاً آخَرَ بِيَمِينِهِ فَصَبَّهُ عَلَى يَسَارِهِ ثُمَّ غَسَلَ بِهِ ذِرَاعَهُ الأيْمَنَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ كَفّاً آخَرَ فَغَسَلَ بِهِ ذِرَاعَهُ الأيْسَرَ ثُمَّ مَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ وَرِجْلَيْهِ بِمَا بَقِيَ فِي يَدِهِ.
3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Yunus from al-‘Ala’ ibn Razin from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has said the following: “Abu Ja‘far (a.s.), once said, ‘When one of you wants to mb oil over his body, he does so only with some oil in the palm of his hand and covers his whole body. Water, however, is more plentiful. Do you want me to demonstrate how the Messenger of Allah would take Wudu’?’ I said, ‘Please do so.’ He (the Imam) then placed his hand in the water but did not wash his hand. He (the Imam) then with some water in the palm of his hand, allowed it to flow down his face and then wiped both sides of his face until he wiped it all. He (the Imam) then with some water in the palm of his right hand, poured it on the palm of his left hand and with it he washed his right forearm. He (the Imam) with some water in the palm of his right hand, washed his left forearm. He (the Imam) then with whatever water was left on his hands, wiped his head and feet.”
