دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) فِي بَيْتٍ مُنَجَّدٍ ثُمَّ عُدْتُ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الْغَدِ وَ هُوَ فِي بَيْتٍ لَيْسَ فِيهِ إِلَّا حَصِيرٌ وَ عَلَيْهِ قَمِيصٌ غَلِيظٌ فَقَالَ الْبَيْتُ الَّذِي رَأَيْتَهُ لَيْسَ بَيْتِي إِنَّمَا هُوَ بَيْتُ الْمَرْأَةِ وَ كَانَ أَمْسِ يَوْمُهَا .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Abu Abdullah, from Usman Bin Isa, from Abdullah Bin Muskan, from Al Hassan Al Zayyat who said, ‘I went over to Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> in a refurbished room. Then I went again to him<sup>asws</sup> in the morning and he<sup>asws</sup> was in a room in which there was nothing except for a mat, and upon him<sup>asws</sup> was a coarse shirt. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘This room which you saw was not my<sup>asws</sup> room. But rather is was a room of the wife, and yesterday was her day’.
