حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ مَعْرُوفٍ عَنْ سَعْدَانَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ وَ اسْمُهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ یَسَارٍ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ: عَشْرُ خِصَالٍ مَنْ لَقِیَ اللَّهَ بِهِنَّ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّهَ شَهَادَهُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَ أَنَّ مُحَمَّداً رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَ الْإِقْرَارُ بِمَا جَاءَ بِهِ مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ وَ إِقَامُ الصَّلَاهِ وَ إِیتَاءُ الزَّکَاهِ وَ صَوْمُ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ وَ حِجُّ الْبَیْتِ وَ الْوَلَایَهُ لِأَوْلِیَاءِ اللَّهِ وَ الْبَرَاءَهُ مِنْ أَعْدَاءِ اللَّهِ وَ اجْتِنَابُ کُلِّ مُسْکِرٍ.

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from al-Abbas b. Ma’ruf from Sa’dan b. Muslim and his name is Abdulrahman b. Muslim from al-Fadhl b. Yasar from Abi Ja’far (a.s.) who said: “There are ten such virtues that one who meets God possessing them will go to Paradise. (They are) bearing witness that there is no God except Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, having faith in what Muhammad brought from Allah, establishing prayers, payment of Zakat, fasting in the month of Ramadan, Hajj of the House of Allah, faith and love of the friends of Allah, condemning the enemies of God and abstinence from all intoxicants.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْأَسَدِیُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُوسَی بْنُ عِمْرَانَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِنَّ اللَّهَ تَبَارَکَ وَ تَعَالَی ضَمِنَ لِلْمُؤْمِنِ ضَمَاناً قَالَ قُلْتُ وَ مَا هُوَ قَالَ ضَمِنَ لَهُ إِنْ هُوَ أَقَرَّ لَهُ بِالرُّبُوبِیَّهِ وَ لِمُحَمَّدٍ ص بِالنُّبُوَّهِ وَ لِعَلِیٍّ ع بِالْإِمَامَهِ وَ أَدَّی مَا افْتَرَضَ اللَّهُ عَلَیْهِ أَنْ یُسْکِنَهُ فِی جِوَارِهِ وَ لَمْ یَحْتَجِبْ عَنْهُ قَالَ قُلْتُ فَهَذِهِ وَ اللَّهِ الْکَرَامَهُ الَّتِی لَا یُشْبِهُهَا کَرَامَهٌ وَ هِیَ کَرَامَهُ الْآدَمِیِّینَ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع اعْمَلُوا قَلِیلًا تَنَعَّمُوا کَثِیراً.

1. It is narrated from Mufaddal bin Umar that Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) said, “The Almighty Allah has guaranteed a thing for a believer.” Mufaddal asked, “O master! What is that?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “One who has belief in the Lordship of Allah, prophethood of Muhammad (s.a.w.s.), imamate of Ali (a.s.), fulfills the obligatory deeds Allah would keep him near Himself forever and He won’t remain hidden from that person.” Mufaddal said, “By God, this grace is not like that of humans.” Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) said, “You can earn many rewards even if you perform a few good deeds.”

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی عَلِیُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِیمَ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِیِّ عَنِ السَّکُونِیِّ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ أَمِیرُ الْمُؤْمِنِینَ ع إِذَا تَکَشَّفَ أَحَدُکُمْ لِبَوْلٍ أَوْ غَیْرِ ذَلِکَ فَلْیَقُلْ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ الشَّیْطَانَ یَغُضُّ بَصَرَهُ حَتَّی یَفْرُغَ.

1. It is narrated from Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) and his predecessors that Amirul Momineen (a.s.) said, “Whenever you bare yourself (go to toilet) recite Bismillaah for if you do so Satan will keep his eyes closed until you have covered yourself.”

حَدَّثَنِی جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَسْرُورٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِیلَ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ الْحَکَمِ عَنْ دَاوُدَ الْعِجْلِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی بَصِیرٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ فَذَکَرَ اسْمَ اللَّهِ طَهُرَ جَمِیعُ جَسَدِهِ وَ کَانَ الْوُضُوءُ إِلَی الْوُضُوءِ کَفَّارَهً لِمَا بَیْنَهُمَا مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ وَ مَنْ لَمْ یُسَمِّ لَمْ یَطْهُرْ مِنْ جَسَدِهِ إِلَّا مَا أَصَابَهُ الْمَاءُ.

1. It was narrated to me by Ja’far b. Muhammad b. Masroor who said it was narrated to me by al-Hassan b. Muhammad b. ’Amir from his uncle Abdillah b. ’Amir from Muhammad b. Ismail from Ali b. al-Hakam from Dawud al-’Ijli from Abi Basir from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said: “One who utters a name of Allah while performing ablution his whole body will become pure. All his sins between two ablutions will be wiped off. One who does not utter a name of Allah while performing ablution only the parts of body concerned with ablution will become pure and not his whole body.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ مُعَاوِیَهَ بْنِ حُکَیْمٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُغِیرَهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُسْکَانَ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: مَنْ ذَکَرَ اللَّهَ عَلَی وُضُوئِهِ فَکَأَنَّمَا اغْتَسَلَ.

2. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from Muawiyah b. Hakeem from Abdillah b. al-Mughira from Abdillah b. Muskan from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said: “A person who utters the name of Allah while performing ablution is like one who has performed a Ghusl.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ حَسَّانَ الْوَاسِطِیِّ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ کَثِیرٍ الْهَاشِمِیِّ مَوْلَی مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: بَیْنَا أَمِیرُ الْمُؤْمِنِینَ ع ذَاتَ یَوْمٍ جَالِساً مَعَ ابْنِ الْحَنَفِیَّهِ إِذْ قَالَ یَا مُحَمَّدُ ائْتِنِی بِإِنَاءٍ فِیهِ مَاءٌ أَتَوَضَّأْ لِلصَّلَاهِ فَأَتَاهُ مُحَمَّدٌ بِالْمَاءِ فَأَکْفَأَ بِیَدِهِ الْیُمْنَی عَلَی یَدِهِ الْیُسْرَی ثُمَّ قَالَ بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِی جَعَلَ الْمَاءَ طَهُوراً وَ لَمْ یَجْعَلْهُ نَجِساً قَالَ ثُمَّ اسْتَنْجَی فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ حَصِّنْ فَرْجِی وَ أَعِفَّهُ وَ اسْتُرْ عَوْرَتِی وَ حَرِّمْنِی عَلَی النَّارِ ثُمَّ تَمَضْمَضَ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ لَقِّنِّی حُجَّتِی یَوْمَ أَلْقَاکَ وَ أَطْلِقْ لِسَانِی بِذِکْرِکَ ثُمَّ اسْتَنْشَقَ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ لَا تُحَرِّمْ عَلَیَّ رِیحَ الْجَنَّهِ وَ اجْعَلْنِی مِمَّنْ یَشَمُّ رِیحَهَا وَ رَوْحَهَا وَ رَیْحَانَهَا وَ طِیبَهَا قَالَ ثُمَّ غَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ بَیِّضْ وَجْهِی یَوْمَ تَسْوَدُّ فِیهِ الْوُجُوهُ وَ لَا تُسَوِّدْ وَجْهِی یَوْمَ تَبْیَضُّ فِیهِ الْوُجُوهُ ثُمَّ غَسَلَ یَدَهُ الْیُمْنَی فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَعْطِنِی کِتَابِی بِیَمِینِی وَ الْخُلْدَ فِی الْجِنَانِ بِیَسَارِی وَ حَاسِبْنِی حِساباً یَسِیراً ثُمَّ غَسَلَ یَدَهُ الْیُسْرَی فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ لَا تُعْطِنِی کِتَابِی بِشِمَالِی وَ لَا تَجْعَلْهَا مَغْلُولَهً إِلَی عُنُقِی وَ أَعُوذُ بِکَ مِنْ مُقَطَّعَاتِ النِّیرَانِ ثُمَّ مَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ غَشِّنِی بِرَحْمَتِکَ وَ بَرَکَاتِکَ وَ عَفْوِکَ قَالَ ثُمَّ مَسَحَ رِجْلَیْهِ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ ثَبِّتْنِی عَلَی الصِّرَاطِ یَوْمَ تَزِلُّ فِیهِ الْأَقْدَامُ وَ اجْعَلْ سَعْیِی فِیمَا یُرْضِیکَ عَنِّی یَا أَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمِینَ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ رَأْسَهُ فَنَظَرَ إِلَی مُحَمَّدٍ فَقَالَ یَا مُحَمَّدُ مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ مِثْلَ وُضُوئِی وَ قَالَ مِثْلَ قَوْلِی خَلَقَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مِنْ کُلِّ قَطْرَهٍ مَلَکاً یُقَدِّسُهُ وَ یُسَبِّحُهُ وَ یُکَبِّرُهُ وَ یَکْتُبُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَی لَهُ ثَوَابَ ذَلِکَ إِلَی یَوْمِ الْقِیَامَهِ.

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan al-Saffar from Ali b. Ahmad al-Wasiti from his uncle Abdulrahman b. Katheer al-Hashimi, the slave of Muhammad b. Ali, from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said: "Amir al-Mu'minin (AS) was sitting one day with Ibn al-Hanafiyyah, and he said, "O Muhammad, bring me a vessel with water in it, so I can perform ablution for prayer." Muhammad brought the water, and he (Amir al-Mu'minin) washed his right hand with his left hand, then he said, "In the name of Allah, praise be to Allah who has made water pure and not impure." <br>He then performed istinja (cleaning the private parts) and said, "O Allah, protect my private parts, forgive me, cover my shame (nakedness), and prohibit the Hellfire from me." Afterward, he rinsed his mouth and said, "O Allah, grant me the ability to argue my case on the day I meet You and let my tongue speak with Your remembrance." <br>He then sniffed water into his nose and said, "O Allah, do not deprive me of the scent of Paradise and make me among those who enjoy its fragrance, its scent, its aroma, and its perfume." <br>Next, he washed his face and said, "O Allah, whiten my face on the day when faces will turn black, and do not make my face black on the day when faces will turn white." <br>He then washed his right hand and said, "O Allah, grant me my book (of deeds) in my right hand and grant me eternity in the Gardens on my left, and make my reckoning an easy one." <br>Afterward, he washed his left hand and said, "O Allah, do not give my book in my left hand, and do not make it tied to my neck, and I seek refuge in You from the severing of the Fire." <br>He then wiped his head and said, "O Allah, shower me with Your mercy, blessings, and forgiveness." <br>Then, he wiped his feet and said, "O Allah, make me steadfast on the Straight Path on the day when feet will slip, and let my effort please You, O Most Merciful of those who are merciful." <br>Then he raised his head and looked at Muhammad and said, "O Muhammad, whoever performs ablution like my ablution and says like my saying, Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, creates an angel from every drop, who sanctifies it, praises it, and magnifies it. Allah, the Exalted, records a reward for that until the Day of Resurrection."

أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ سَلَمَهَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِیمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الثَّقَفِیِّ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ یَعْلَی عَنْ إِبْرَاهِیمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حُمْرَانَ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ وَ تَمَنْدَلَ کُتِبَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَهٌ وَ مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ وَ لَمْ یَتَمَنْدَلْ حَتَّی تَجِفَّ وَضُوؤُهُ کُتِبَتْ لَهُ ثَلَاثُونَ حَسَنَهً.

1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to us by Sa’d b. Abdillah from Salamah b. al-Khattab from Ibrahim b. Muhammad al-Thaqafi from Ali b. Ya’la from Ibrahim b. Muhammad b. Hamran from his father from Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said: “A person who wipes the parts of body after ablution will get a single reward and the person who does not wipe will get thirty rewards.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِیمَ بْنِ هَاشِمٍ عَنْ عَمْرَهَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ جَرَّاحٍ الْحَذَّاءِ عَنْ سَمَاعَهَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ مُوسَی ع مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ لِلْمَغْرِبِ کَانَ وُضُوؤُهُ ذَلِکَ کَفَّارَهً لِمَا مَضَی مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ فِی نَهَارِهِ مَا خَلَا الْکَبَائِرَ وَ مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ لِصَلَاهِ الصُّبْحِ کَانَ وُضُوؤُهُ ذَلِکَ کَفَّارَهً لِمَا مَضَی مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ فِی لَیْلَتِهِ مَا خَلَا الْکَبَائِرَ.

1. Imam Musa Kadhim (a.s.) says, “The ablution of Maghrib compensates for the sins of a person committed during that day excluding the greater sins. The ablution of Morning Prayer compensates for the sins of a person committed during the previous night excluding the greater sins.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الصَّفَّارُ عَنِ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ مَعْرُوفٍ عَنْ أَبِی حَمَّادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعِیدٍ عَنْ غَزْوَانَ عَنِ السَّکُونِیِّ عَنِ ابْنِ جَرِیحٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص افْتَحُوا عُیُونَکُمْ عِنْدَ الْوُضُوءِ لَعَلَّهَا لَا تَرَی نَارَ جَهَنَّمَ.

1. Imam Ridha (a.s.) says, “Keep your eyes open while performing ablution. Perhaps you will save yourself from seeing the fire of Hell by doing so.”

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِیِّ بْنِ مَاجِیلَوَیْهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ الصَّقْرِ عَنْ أَبِی قَتَادَهَ عَنِ الرِّضَا ع قَالَ: تَجْدِیدُ الْوُضُوءِ لِصَلَاهِ الْعِشَاءِ یَمْحُو لَا وَ اللَّهِ وَ بَلَی وَ اللَّهِ.

1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Ali b. Majluwayh from Muhammad b. Yahya al-’Attar from Muhammad b. Ahmad b. al-Saqr from Abi Qatadah from al-Ridha (a.s.) who said: “Repeating ablution for Isha prayer wipes the sins concerning oaths (yes, by Allah; no, by Allah)”
