اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَبِي اَلْقَاسِمِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قُولَوَيْهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُعَمَّرِ بْنِ خَلاَّدٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا اَلْحَسَنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ بِهِ عِلَّةٌ لاَ يَقْدِرُ عَلَى اَلاِضْطِجَاعِ وَ اَلْوُضُوءُ يَشْتَدُّ عَلَيْهِ وَ هُوَ قَاعِدٌ مُسْتَنِدٌ بِالْوَسَائِدِ فَرُبَّمَا أَغْفَى وَ هُوَ قَاعِدٌ عَلَى تِلْكَ اَلْحَالِ قَالَ «يَتَوَضَّأُ» قُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّ اَلْوُضُوءَ يَشْتَدُّ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ« إِذَا خَفِيَ عَنْهُ اَلصَّوْتُ فَقَدْ وَجَبَ اَلْوُضُوءُ عَلَيْهِ» تَمَامَ اَلْحَدِيثِ.

Translation

The Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah (swt) support him, narrated from Abu Al-Qasim Ja‘far bin Muhammad bin Qulawayh, from Muhammad bin Ya‘qub, from Muhammad bin Yahya, from Ahmad bin Muhammad, from Mu‘ammar bin Khallad, who said: I asked Abu Al-Hasan (a.s) about a man with an ailment who cannot lie down, and performing ablution (wudu’) is difficult for him. He sits leaning on cushions, and sometimes he dozes off while sitting in that condition. Imam (a.s) said: "He must perform ablution." I said to Imam (a.s): "(but) Ablution is difficult for him." Imam (a.s) said: "If sound becomes imperceptible (undetectable) to him, then ablution becomes obligatory upon him." (End of the narration).
