مَرَّ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ ( صلوات الله عليه ) عَلَى الْمُجَذَّمِينَ وَ هُوَ رَاكِبٌ حِمَارَهُ وَ هُمْ يَتَغَدَّوْنَ فَدَعَوْهُ إِلَى الْغَدَاءِ فَقَالَ أَمَا إِنِّي لَوْ لَا أَنِّي صَائِمٌ لَفَعَلْتُ فَلَمَّا صَارَ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ أَمَرَ بِطَعَامٍ فَصُنِعَ وَ أَمَرَ أَنْ يَتَنَوَّقُوا فِيهِ ثُمَّ دَعَاهُمْ فَتَغَدَّوْا عِنْدَهُ وَ تَغَدَّى مَعَهُمْ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from hisham Bin Salim, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Ali<sup>asws</sup> Bin Al-Husayn<sup>asws</sup> passed by the lepers, and he<sup>asws</sup> was riding his<sup>asws</sup> donkey, and they were eating lunch. So they invited him<sup>asws</sup> to the lunch. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘But, if I<sup>asws</sup> wasn’t Fasting, I<sup>asws</sup> would have done so’. So when he<sup>asws</sup> came to his<sup>asws</sup> house, he<sup>asws</sup> ordered for some food. So it was made, and he<sup>asws</sup> ordered that they should be better in it. Then he<sup>asws</sup> invited them, so they had lunch with him<sup>asws</sup>, and he<sup>asws</sup> had lunch with them’.
