مَا أَخْبَرَنِي بِهِ اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَبِي اَلْقَاسِمِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ اَلْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ جَمِيعاً عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ:« تَابِعْ بَيْنَ اَلْوُضُوءِ كَمَا قَالَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ اِبْدَأْ بِالْوَجْهِ ثُمَّ بِالْيَدَيْنِ ثُمَّ اِمْسَحْ بِالرَّأْسِ وَ اَلرِّجْلَيْنِ وَ لاَ تُقَدِّمَنَّ شَيْئاً بَيْنَ يَدَيْ شَيْءٍ تُخَالِفُ مَا أُمِرْتَ بِهِ فَإِنْ غَسَلْتَ اَلذِّرَاعَ قَبْلَ اَلْوَجْهِ فَابْدَأْ بِالْوَجْهِ وَ أَعِدْ عَلَى اَلذِّرَاعِ فَإِنْ مَسَحْتَ اَلرِّجْلَ قَبْلَ اَلرَّأْسِ فَامْسَحْ عَلَى اَلرَّأْسِ قَبْلَ اَلرِّجْلِ ثُمَّ أَعِدْ عَلَى اَلرِّجْلِ اِبْدَأْ بِمَا بَدَأَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِهِ».

Translation

The Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah (swt) support him, informed me from Abu al-Qasim Jaʿfar ibn Muhammad, from Muhammad ibn Yaʿqub, from Ali ibn Ibrahim, from his father and Muhammad ibn Ismaʿil, from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan, all from Hammad ibn ʿIsa, from Hariz, from Zurarah, who said: Abu Jaʿfar (a.s) said: "Maintain continuity in Wuduʾ as Allah (swt), the Exalted, has commanded. Begin with the face, then the hands, then wipe over the head and the feet. Do not bring anything forward before its appointed place, as this would contradict what you have been commanded. If you wash the arm before the face, begin again with the face and then rewash the arm. If you wipe the foot before the head, then wipe over the head before the foot and then rewipe the foot. Begin with what Allah (swt), the Exalted, has begun with."
