كَتَبْتُ إِلَى الرَّجُلِ ( صلوات الله عليه ) أَسْأَلُهُ عَنِ الثَّوْبِ يُصِيبُهُ الْخَمْرُ وَ لَحْمُ الْخِنْزِيرِ أَ يُصَلَّى فِيهِ أَمْ لَا فَإِنَّ أَصْحَابَنَا قَدِ اخْتَلَفُوا فِيهِ فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ صَلِّ فِيهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ إِنَّمَا حَرَّمَ شُرْبَهَا وَ قَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لَا تُصَلِّ فِيهِ فَكَتَبَ ( عليه السلام ) لَا تُصَلِّ فِيهِ فَإِنَّهُ رِجْسٌ قَالَ وَ سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الَّذِي يُعِيرُ ثَوْبَهُ لِمَنْ يَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ يَأْكُلُ الْجِرِّيَّ أَوْ يَشْرَبُ الْخَمْرَ فَيَرُدُّهُ أَ يُصَلِّي فِيهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَغْسِلَهُ قَالَ لَا يُصَلِّ فِيهِ حَتَّى يَغْسِلَهُ .
Translation
Ali Bin Muhammad, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Khayran Al Khadim who said, ‘I wrote to the Imam<sup>asws</sup> asking him<sup>asws</sup> about the clothes hit by the wine and the flesh of swine, ‘Can <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> be prayed in these, for our companions have differed with regards to it. So some of them are saying, ‘You can pray <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> in these for Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, rather, has Prohibited its drinking’, and some of them are saying, ‘You cannot pray <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> in it’. So he<sup>asws</sup> wrote: ‘You cannot pray <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> in it, for it is filth’. He (the narrator) said, ‘And I asked Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the one who lends his cloth to the one whom he knows that he eats the catfish, or drinks the wine. So he returns it. Can he pray <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> in it before he washes it?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He cannot pray <span class="iTxt">Salāt</span> in it until he washes it’.
