Arabic text

حدثنا محمد بن الحسن بن أحمد - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا محمد بن الحسن الصفار عن أحمد بن أبي عبد الله، عن أبيه، عن ابن أبي عمير، عن مهران بن محمد، عن سعد الإسكاف عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال: من شرب الخمر أو مسكرا لم تقبل صلاته أربعين صباحا فإن عاد سقاه الله طينة خبال، قلت: وما طينة خبال؟ قال: صديد يخرج من فروج الزناة.

Translation

2. We were told by Muhammed bin Hasan bin Ahmad, may Allah grant him mercy, that he said: We were told by Muhammed bin Hasan al-Saffar, from Ahmad bin Abi Abdillah, from his father, from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr, from Mahran bin Muhammed, from Sa’d al-Iskafi, from Abu Ja’far, peace be upon him, that he said: The one who drinks wine or an intoxicant, his prayer will not be accepted for forty mornings, and if he returns, Allah will make him drink from the clay of lunacy. I said: And what is the clay of lunacy? He said: A pus that comes out from the genitals of adulteresses.
