سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ حَرِيمُ الْبِئْرِ الْعَادِيَّةِ أَرْبَعُونَ ذِرَاعاً حَوْلَهَا وَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى خَمْسُونَ ذِرَاعاً إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ إِلَى عَطَنٍ أَوْ إِلَى الطَّرِيقِ فَيَكُونُ أَقَلَّ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِلَى خَمْسَةٍ وَ عِشْرِينَ ذِرَاعاً.
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Barqy, from Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Hammad Bin Usman who said, ‘I heard Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘The sanctuary of the regular well is of forty cubits around it’. And in another report, ‘(He<sup>asws</sup> said:) ‘Fifty cubits, except if it happens to be stinking (decayed/broken), or by the road, so it can happen to be less than that to twenty five cubits’.
