5. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad in a marfu‘ manner the following: “He (the Imam) (a.s.), has said, ‘
One may enter a grave from whatever direction he likes, but should come out from the side where the feet are placed.’”
5ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ
قَالَ يَدْخُلُ الرَّجُلُ الْقَبْرَ مِنْ حَيْثُ شَاءَ وَلاَ يَخْرُجْ إِلاَّ مِنْ قِبَلِ رِجْلَيْهِ. وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ أُخْرَى قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) إِنَّ لِكُلِّ بَيْتٍ بَاباً وَإِنَّ بَابَ الْقَبْرِ مِنْ قِبَلِ الرِّجْلَيْنِ.
