Arabic text

فَأَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ اَلْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رِئَابٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ اَلْأُذُنَانِ مِنَ اَلرَّأْسِ قَالَ« نَعَمْ» قُلْتُ فَإِذَا مَسَحْتُ رَأْسِي مَسَحْتُ أُذُنَيَّ قَالَ« نَعَمْ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى أَبِي وَ فِي عُنُقِهِ عُكْنَةٌ وَ كَانَ يُحْفِي رَأْسَهُ إِذَا جَزَّهُ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ وَ اَلْمَاءُ يَنْحَدِرُ عَلَى عُنُقِهِ».

Translation

Al-Husayn bin Sa‘id narrated from Yunus, from Ali bin Ri’ab, who said: I asked Abu Abdullah (a.s): "Are the ears considered part of the head?" Imam (a.s) said: "Yes." I asked: "So if I wipe my head, should I wipe my ears as well?" Imam (a.s) said: "Yes. It is as if I can see my father, with folds in the skin of his neck, who used to shave his head completely. It is as if I can see water flowing down his neck."

Translation: Haydar Ali Shaykh ibn Muhammad — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
