وَ رَوَى حَرِيزٌ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «لاَ تَخْرُجْ يَوْمَ اَلْفِطْرِ حَتَّى تَطْعَمَ شَيْئاً وَ لاَ تَأْكُلْ يَوْمَ اَلْأَضْحَى شَيْئاً إِلاَّ مِنْ هَدْيِكَ وَ أُضْحِيَّتِكَ إِنْ قَوِيتَ عَلَيْهِ وَ إِنْ لَمْ تَقْوَ فَمَعْذُورٌ» قَالَ وَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «كَانَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ لاَ يَأْكُلُ يَوْمَ اَلْأَضْحَى شَيْئاً حَتَّى يَأْكُلَ مِنْ أُضْحِيَّتِهِ وَ لاَ يَخْرُجُ يَوْمَ اَلْفِطْرِ حَتَّى يَطْعَمَ وَ يُؤَدِّيَ اَلْفِطْرَةَ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَ كَذَلِكَ نَحْنُ.
Hariz narrated from Zurarah that Abu Ja'far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (a.s) said: "Do not leave your house on the day of Eid al-Fitr until you have eaten something, and do not eat anything on the day of Eid al-Adha except from your own sacrifice, if you are able. If you are not able, then you are excused." Abu Ja'far (a.s) also said: "Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s) would not eat on the day of Eid al-Adha until he had eaten from his own sacrifice, and he would not leave on the day of Eid al-Fitr until he had eaten and paid the Zakat al-Fitr." He added, "This is also our practice."
