1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from and Sahl ibn Ziyad all from Rifa‘ah ibn Musa who has said the following
“I once asked abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) about a man who is for al-Tamattu‘ (advantageous) but does not find an offering-animal. He (the Imam) said, ’He must fast before al-Tarwiyah (eight of Dhu al-Hajjah) on the day of al-Tarwiyah and on the day of ‘Arafah. I then said that he has arrived on the day of Tarwiyah. He (the Imam) said, ‘He must fast three days after the days of Tashriq.’ I then said that transporting people do not wait for him. He (the Imam) said, ‘He can fast on the day of al-Hasabah and two days thereafter.’ I then asked, ‘What is al-Hasabah?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is the day he leaves.’ I then asked, ‘Can he fast when traveling?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, was he not traveling on the day of ‘Arafah? We, Ahl al-Bayt say it because of the words of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, ‘. . . three days of fasting in al-Hajj.’ (2:196) He says this (fasting) is in Dhu al-Hajjah.’”
1ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَسَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ جَمِيعاً عَنْ رِفَاعَةَ بْنِ مُوسَى قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) عَنِ الْمُتَمَتِّعِ لا يَجِدُ الْهَدْيَ قَالَ يَصُومُ قَبْلَ التَّرْوِيَةِ بِيَوْمٍ وَيَوْمَ التَّرْوِيَةِ وَيَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ قُلْتُ فَإِنَّهُ قَدِمَ يَوْمَ التَّرْوِيَةِ قَالَ يَصُومُ ثَلاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ بَعْدَ التَّشْرِيقِ قُلْتُ لَمْ يُقِمْ عَلَيْهِ جَمَّالُهُ قَالَ يَصُومُ يَوْمَ الْحَصْبَةِ وَبَعْدَهُ يَوْمَيْنِ قَالَ قُلْتُ وَمَا الْحَصْبَةُ قَالَ يَوْمُ نَفْرِهِ قُلْتُ يَصُومُ وَهُوَ مُسَافِرٌ قَالَ نَعَمْ أَ لَيْسَ هُوَ يَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ مُسَافِراً إِنَّا أَهْلُ بَيْتٍ نَقُولُ ذَلِكَ لِقَوْلِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَصِيامُ ثَلاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ فِي الْحَجِّ يَقُولُ فِي ذِي الْحِجَّةِ.
