Arabic text

وَ أَخْبَرَنِي اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبَانٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ: سُئِلَ أَحَدُهُمَا عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ بَدَأَ بِيَدِهِ قَبْلَ وَجْهِهِ وَ بِرِجْلَيْهِ قَبْلَ يَدَيْهِ قَالَ« يَبْدَأُ بِمَا بَدَأَ اَللَّهُ بِهِ وَ لْيُعِدْ مَا كَانَ».

Translation

The Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah (swt) support him, informed me from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from his father, from al-Husayn ibn al-Hasan ibn Aban, from al-Husayn ibn Saʿid, from Muhammad ibn Abi ʿUmayr, from Ibn Udhaynah, from Zurarah, who said: One of the Imams (a.s) was asked about a man who started (ablution) with his hands before his face and with his feet before his hands. Imam (a.s) replied: "He should begin with what Allah (swt) has begun with, and he should repeat (ablution) from what he has done."

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