مَا أَخْبَرَنِي بِهِ اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ قَدْرِ اَلْمَاءِ اَلَّذِي لاَ يُنَجِّسُهُ شَيْءٌ فَقَالَ« كُرٌّ» قُلْتُ وَ كَمِ اَلْكُرُّ قَالَ« ثَلاَثَةُ أَشْبَارٍ فِي ثَلاَثَةِ أَشْبَارٍ».

Translation

Narrated to me by the Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah (swt) support him, from Ahmad bin Muhammad, from his father, from Sa'd bin Abdullah, from Ahmad bin Muhammad, from Muhammad bin Khalid, from Muhammad bin Sinan, from Isma'il bin Jabir, who said: I asked Abu Abdullah (a.s) about the amount of water that does not become impure. Imam (a.s) said: 'A kurr.' I asked: 'And how much is a kurr?' Imam (a.s) said: 'Three by three handspans.'
