Thawāb al-Aʿmāl wa ʿiqāb al-Aʿmāl

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ قَلَّمَ أَظْفَارَهُ یَوْمَ السَّبْتِ أَوْ یَوْمَ الْخَمِیسِ وَ أَخَذَ مِنْ شَارِبِهِ عُوفِیَ مِنْ وَجَعِ الْأَضْرَاسِ وَ وَجَعِ الْعَیْنِ.

2. The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) says, “One who trims his nails and moustache on Thursday or Saturday will remain safe from the pain of teeth and eyes.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِیِّ بْنِ مَاجِیلَوَیْهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الرَّازِیِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِیمَ عَنْ عُقْبَهَ عَنْ زَکَرِیَّا عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ یَحْیَی قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع مَنْ قَصَّ أَظَافِیرَهُ یَوْمَ الْخَمِیسِ وَ تَرَکَ وَاحِدَهً لِیَوْمِ الْجُمُعَهِ نَفَی اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَنْهُ الْفَقْرَ.

3. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) says, “One who trims all his nails except one on Thursday and trims the remaining one on Friday, Allah would remove his poverty.”

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِیسَی عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ یَحْیَی عَنْ جَدِّهِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ رَاشِدٍ عَنْ أَبِی بَصِیرٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص تَقْلِیمُ الْأَظْفَارِ یَمْنَعُ الدَّاءَ الْأَعْظَمَ وَ یَزِیدُ فِی الرِّزْقِ.

4. It is narrated by Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) from his predecessors that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said, “Trimming nails prevents serious hardships and increases one’s earnings.”

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِیسَی عَنْ أَبِی أَیُّوبَ الْمَدَائِنِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی عَمِیرَهَ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: تَقْلِیمُ الْأَظْفَارِ یَوْمَ الْجُمُعَهِ یُؤْمِنُ مِنَ الْجُذَامِ وَ الْبَرَصِ وَ الْعَمَی فَإِنْ لَمْ تَحْتَجْ فَحُکَّهَا حَکّاً.

5. And from the previous chain from Muhammad b. Isa from Abi Ayoob’ al-Madaini from Abi ’Umayra from Hisham b. Salim from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said: “Trimming nails on Friday saves one from leprosy, leucoderma and blindness. If it is not possible to trim them, one should at least rub them on something.”

وَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع مَنْ قَلَّمَ أَظْفَارَهُ وَ قَصَّ شَارِبَهُ فِی کُلِّ جُمُعَهٍ- ثُمَّ قَالَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَ بِاللَّهِ وَ عَلَی مِلَّهِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ص أُعْطِیَ بِکُلِّ قُلَامَهٍ عِتْقَ رَقَبَهٍ مِنْ وُلْدِ إِسْمَاعِیلَ.

6. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) says, “One who recites Bismillaahi wa billaahi wa a’laa millaati rasoolillaah while trimming nails and moustache on Friday would get the reward of freeing a slave from the progeny of Ismail (a.s.) for each hair and nail trimmed.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ عُقْبَهَ عَنْ أَبِی کَهْمَسٍ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَلِّمْنِی دُعَاءً أَسْتَنْزِلُ بِهِ الرِّزْقَ فَقَالَ لِی خُذْ مِنْ شَارِبِکَ وَ أَظْفَارِکَ وَ لْیَکُنْ ذَلِکَ فِی یَوْمِ الْجُمُعَهِ. قال محمد بن علی مؤلف هذا الکتاب قال أبی رض فی وصیه إلی قلم أظفارک و خذ من شاربک و ابدأ بخنصرک من یدک الیمنی و قل حین ترید تقلمها أو جز شاربک بسم الله و بالله و علی مله رسول الله ص فإنه من فعل ذلک کتب الله له بکل قلامه و جزازه عتق نسمه و لم یمرض إلا مرضه الذی یموت فیه.

7. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Muhammad b. al-Hassan from Salih b. ’Uqba from Abi Kahmas who said: “One of the advices of my father, may Allah’s peace be upon him, was: ‘O son! Trim your nails and moustache. Start trimming nails from the small finger of right hand and whenever you do the above two deeds, recite this supplication Bismillaahi wa billaahi wa a’laa millati rasoolillaah. O son! To one who performs this deed Allah would grant the reward of releasing a slave for each nail and hair trimmed and he will not be involved in any disease except death.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ عَنِ السَّیَّارِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی سُلَیْمَانَ الْخَوَّاصِ عَنْ أَبِی نُعَیْمٍ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ دُکَیْنٍ عَنْ سَدِیرٍ الصَّیْرَفِیِّ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَی أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع وَ عَلَیَّ نَعْلٌ بَیْضَاءُ فَقَالَ یَا سَدِیرُ مَا هَذِهِ النَّعْلُ أَخَذْتَهَا عَلَی عِلْمٍ فَقُلْتُ لَا وَ اللَّهِ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاکَ فَقَالَ مَنْ دَخَلَ السُّوقَ قَاصِداً لِشِرَاءِ نَعْلٍ بَیْضَاءَ لَمْ یُبْلِهَا حَتَّی یَکْتَسِبَ مَالًا مِنْ حَیْثُ لا یَحْتَسِبُ قَالَ وَ أَخْبَرَنِی أَبُو نُعَیْمٍ أَنَّ سَدِیراً أَخْبَرَ أَنَّهُ لَمْ یُبْلِ تِلْکَ النَّعْلَ حَتَّی اکْتَسَبَ مِائَهَ دِینَارٍ مِنْ حَیْثُ لَمْ یَحْتَسِبْ.

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan (rah) who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Yahya al-’Attar who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Ahmad from al-Sayyari from Abi Sulayman al-Khawwadh from Abi Na’im al-Fadhl b. Dukayn from Sadeer al-Sayrafi who said: “One who goes to market with an intention of buying white shoes and buys them; then before those shoes are worn out, that person gets such a wealth, which he would have never expected.” Abu Naeem says that Sudair informed him saying, “My shoes were not worn out yet and I received a hundred dirhams from somewhere I had never expected.”

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُوسَی بْنِ عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَبَلَهَ عَنْ حَنَانِ بْنِ سَدِیرٍ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَی أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع وَ عَلَیَّ نَعْلٌ سَوْدَاءُ فَقَالَ مَا لَکَ وَ لُبْسَ نَعْلٍ سَوْدَاءَ أَ مَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَ فِیهَا ثَلَاثَ خِصَالٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ وَ مَا هِیَ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاکَ فَقَالَ تُضَعِّفُ الْبَصَرَ وَ تُرْخِی الذَّکَرَ وَ تُورِثُ الْهَمَّ وَ هِیَ مَعَ ذَلِکَ لِبَاسُ الْجَبَّارِینَ عَلَیْکَ بِلُبْسِ النَّعْلِ الصَّفْرَاءِ فَإِنَّ فِیهَا ثَلَاثَ خِصَالٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ وَ مَا هِیَ قَالَ تَحُدُّ الْبَصَرَ وَ تَشُدُّ الذَّکَرَ وَ تَنْفِی الْهَمَّ وَ هِیَ مَعَ ذَلِکَ لِبَاسُ الْأَنْبِیَاءِ.

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Yahya from Muhammad b. Ahmad from Musa b. ’Umayr from Abdillah b. Jabalah from Hanan b. Sadeer who said: “Why are you wearing black shoes? Do you know its bad consequences?” He asked, “What are its bad effects?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “It affects eyesight and male prowess and it is a cause of sadness and anger. Further, it is the sign of oppressors. Wear yellow shoes and enjoy its benefits.” He asked, “What are the benefits of wearing them?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “It improves eyesight and increases male prowess. It ends sadness and anger and it is a part of the dress of the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.).”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِدْرِیسَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَیْنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَبَلَهَ عَنْ أَبِی الْجَارُودِ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: لُبْسُ الْخُفِّ یَزِیدُ فِی قُوَّهِ الْبَصَرِ.

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan (rah) who said it was narrated to me by Ahmad b. Idris from Muhammad b. al-Hussain from Abdillah b. Jabalah from Abi al-Jarud from Abi Ja’far (a.s.) who said: “Wearing shoes improves eyesight.”

وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُوسَی بْنِ عِمْرَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ مُعَاوِیَهَ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: إِدْمَانُ لُبْسِ الْخُفِّ أَمَانٌ مِنَ الْجُذَامِ قَالَ قُلْتُ فِی الشِّتَاءِ أَمْ فِی الصَّیْفِ قَالَ شِتَاءً کَانَ أَوْ صَیْفاً.

2. And from the previous chain from Muhammad b. Ahmad from Musa b. ’Imran from Ibn Mahbub from Muawiyah b. Wahab from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said: “A person who wears shoes often does not get involved in leprosy.” The narrator asked, “Are you talking about summer or winter?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “There is no difference between them.”
