Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh

وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ أَبَانٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَلْعَزِيزِ قَالَ: اِغْتَسَلَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ بِذِي اَلْحُلَيْفَةِ لِلْإِحْرَامِ وَ صَلَّى ثُمَّ قَالَ «هَاتُوا مَا عِنْدَكُمْ مِنْ لُحُومِ اَلصَّيْدِ، فَأُتِيَ بِحَجَلَتَيْنِ فَأَكَلَهُمَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يُحْرِمَ ».

In a narration from Aban, from Ali ibn Abdul Aziz, he said: "Abu Abdullah (a.s) performed ghusl at Dhu al-Hulayfah for Ihram, prayed, and then said: 'Bring me what you have from the meat of game.' Two partridges were brought to him, and he ate them before entering the state of Ihram."

وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ عَبْدِ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ اَلْحَجَّاجِ عَنْهُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: أَنَّهُ صَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ وَ عَقَدَ فِي مَسْجِدِ اَلشَّجَرَةِ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ فَأُتِيَ بِخَبِيصٍ فِيهِ زَعْفَرَانٌ فَأَكَلَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُلَبِّيَ مِنْهُ.

In a narration from Abdul Rahman ibn al-Hajjaj, from Imam (a.s): He prayed two units of prayer and entered Ihram at Masjid al-Shajarah. Then he went out and was brought a dessert containing saffron, and he ate from it before reciting the Talbiyah.

وَ رَوَى عَنْهُ وَهْبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ: فِي رَجُلٍ كَانَتْ مَعَهُ أُمُّ وَلَدٍ لَهُ فَأَحْرَمَتْ قَبْلَ سَيِّدِهَا أَ لَهُ أَنْ يَنْقُضَ إِحْرَامَهَا وَ يَطَأَهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يُحْرِمَ قَالَ «نَعَمْ».

Wahb ibn Abd Rabbih narrated from Imam (a.s) regarding a man whose concubine entered the state of Ihram before her master. He asked: "Is it permissible for him to nullify her Ihram and have intercourse with her before entering Ihram himself?" Imam (a.s) replied: "Yes."

وَ كَتَبَ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا إِلَى أَبِي إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي رَجُلٍ دَخَلَ مَسْجِدَ اَلشَّجَرَةِ فَصَلَّى وَ أَحْرَمَ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ مِنَ اَلْمَسْجِدِ فَبَدَا لَهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُلَبِّيَ أَ لَهُ أَنْ يَنْقُضَ ذَلِكَ بِمُوَاقَعَةِ اَلنِّسَاءِ فَكَتَبَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «نَعَمْ» أَوْ «لاَ بَأْسَ بِهِ ».

One of our companions wrote to Abu Ibrahim (a.s) regarding a man who entered Masjid al-Shajarah, prayed, and entered Ihram. Then, before reciting the Talbiyah, he left the mosque and decided to nullify his Ihram by engaging in intercourse with women. Imam (a.s) wrote in reply: "Yes" or "There is no harm in it."

رَوَى عَمْرُو بْنُ شَمِرٍ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ قَالَ: "إِنَّمَا اسْتَحْسَنُوا إِشْعَارَ الْبُدْنِ لِأَنَّ أَوَّلَ قَطْرَةٍ تَقْطُرُ مِنْ دَمِهَا يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ."

Amr ibn Shumr narrated from Jabir, from Abu Ja'far (a.s), who said: "They deemed the marking of the sacrificial animals commendable because with the first drop of its blood that falls, Allah (swt), the Almighty, forgives the one offering it."

وَ رَوَى حَرِيزٌ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «كَانَ اَلنَّاسُ يُقَلِّدُونَ اَلْغَنَمَ وَ اَلْبَقَرَ وَ إِنَّمَا تَرَكَهُ اَلنَّاسُ حَدِيثاً وَ يُقَلِّدُونَ بِخَيْطٍ أَوْ بِسَيْرٍ ».

Hariz narrated from Zurara, from Abu Ja'far (a.s), who said: "People used to adorn sheep and cattle with garlands, but they have recently abandoned this practice. They would garland them with a string or a leather strap."

وَ رَوَى مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي رَجُلٍ سَاقَ هَدْياً وَ لَمْ يُقَلِّدْهُ وَ لَمْ يُشْعِرْهُ قَالَ «قَدْ أَجْزَأَ عَنْهُ مَا أَكْثَرَ مَا لاَ يُقَلَّدُ وَ لاَ يُشْعَرُ وَ لاَ يُجَلَّلُ ».

Mu'awiyah ibn Ammar narrated from Abu Abdullah (a.s) regarding a man who drove a sacrificial animal but neither garlanded it nor marked it. Imam (a.s) said: "It is sufficient for him. Most often, sacrificial animals are neither garlanded, marked, nor adorned."

وَ رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنِ اَلْفُضَيْلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ رَجُلٌ أَحْرَمَ مِنَ اَلْوَقْتِ وَ مَضَى ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ اِشْتَرَى بَدَنَةً بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بِيَوْمٍ أَوْ يَوْمَيْنِ فَأَشْعَرَهَا وَ قَلَّدَهَا وَ سَاقَهَا فَقَالَ «إِنْ كَانَ اِبْتَاعَهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ اَلْحَرَمَ فَلاَ بَأْسَ» قُلْتُ فَإِنَّهُ اِشْتَرَاهَا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْتَهِيَ إِلَى اَلْوَقْتِ اَلَّذِي يُحْرِمُ مِنْهُ فَأَشْعَرَهَا وَ قَلَّدَهَا أَ يَجِبُ عَلَيْهِ حِينَ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ مَا يَجِبُ عَلَى اَلْمُحْرِمِ قَالَ «لاَ وَ لَكِنْ إِذَا اِنْتَهَى إِلَى اَلْوَقْتِ فَلْيُحْرِمْ ثُمَّ يُشْعِرُهَا وَ يُقَلِّدُهَا فَإِنَّ تَقْلِيدَهُ اَلْأَوَّلَ لَيْسَ بِشَيْءٍ ».

Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Jamil ibn Salih, from Al-Fudayl ibn Yasar, who said: I said to Abu Abdullah (a.s): "A man enters Ihram from the Miqat and proceeds on his journey. Then, a day or two later, he purchases a sacrificial camel, marks it, garlands it, and drives it forward. What is the ruling?" Imam (a.s) said: "If he purchased it before entering the Haram, there is no harm." I asked: "What if he purchased it before reaching the Miqat where he enters Ihram, marked it, and garlanded it? Does what is obligatory upon a Muhrim apply to him at that point?" Imam (a.s) said: "No. However, when he reaches the Miqat, he should enter Ihram and then mark and garland it. The earlier garlanding does not hold any significance."

وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ اَلْفُضَيْلِ عَنْ أَبِي اَلصَّبَّاحِ اَلْكِنَانِيِّ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلْبُدْنِ كَيْفَ تُشْعَرُ فَقَالَ «تُشْعَرُ وَ هِيَ بَارِكَةٌ مِنْ شَقِّ سَنَامِهَا اَلْأَيْمَنِ وَ تُنْحَرُ وَ هِيَ قَائِمَةٌ مِنْ قِبَلِ اَلْأَيْمَنِ.

Muhammad ibn al-Fudayl narrated from Abu al-Sabbah al-Kinani, who said: I asked Abu Abdullah (a.s) about how camels are marked (Ish'ar). Imam (a.s) said: "They are marked while sitting, by slitting the right side of their hump, and they are slaughtered while standing, from their right side."

وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «تُقَلِّدُهَا نَعْلاً خَلَقاً قَدْ صَلَّيْتَ فِيهَا وَ اَلْإِشْعَارُ وَ اَلتَّقْلِيدُ بِمَنْزِلَةِ اَلتَّلْبِيَةِ».

In a narration from Mu'awiyah ibn Ammar, from Abu Abdullah (a.s), he said: "You garland it with an old sandal that you have prayed in, and both marking (Ish'ar) and garlanding (Taqleed) hold the same status as the Talbiyah."
