691 - وَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «حَدُّ مَسْجِدِ اَلْكُوفَةِ آخِرُ اَلسَّرَّاجِينَ خَطَّهُ آدَمُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ أَنَا أَكْرَهُ أَنْ أَدْخُلَهُ رَاكِباً» قِيلَ لَهُ فَمَنْ غَيَّرَهُ عَنْ خِطَّتِهِ قَالَ «أَمَّا أَوَّلُ ذَلِكَ فَالطُّوفَانُ فِي زَمَنِ نُوحٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ ثُمَّ غَيَّرَهُ أَصْحَابُ كِسْرَى وَ اَلنُّعْمَانِ ثُمَّ غَيَّرَهُ زِيَادُ بْنُ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ.
Hadith.691 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "The boundary of the Mosque of Kufa extends to the end of the lamp-makers' area. It was originally marked by Adam (as), and I dislike entering it while riding." He was asked: "Who altered its original boundaries?" Imam (as) said: "The first change occurred due to the flood during the time of Noah (as), followed by changes made by the companions of Khosrow (the Persian rulers) and al-Nu'man, and then later by Ziyad ibn Abi Sufyan."
