وَأَخْبَرَنِي الشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى وَأَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي الْعَلَاءِ أَوْ غَيْرِهِ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ سُئِلَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِمَا السَّلَامُ مَا حَدُّ الْغَائِطِ؟ قَالَ لَا تَسْتَقْبِلِ الْقِبْلَةَ وَلَا تَسْتَدْبِرْهَا وَلَا تَسْتَقْبِلِ الرِّيحَ وَلَا تَسْتَدْبِرْهَا

Translation

Narrated to me by the Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah (swt) support him, who said: Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Al-Hasan narrated to me, from his father, from Muhammad bin Yahya and Ahmad bin Idris, from Muhammad bin Ahmad bin Yahya, from Ya'qub bin Yazid, from Abdul Hamid bin Abi Al-'Ala or someone else (through an elevated chain), who said: Al-Hasan bin Ali (a.s) was asked: 'What are the limits for relieving oneself?' Imam (a.s) said: 'Do not face the Qiblah, do not turn your back to it, do not face the wind, and do not turn your back to it.'
