1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from and Muhammad ibn ‘Isma‘il has narrated from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from all from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Jamil and Muhammad ibn Humran who has said the following
“I once asked abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who is free and owes two consecutive months of fasting because of Zihar (calling on oath the back of one’s wife as that of one’s mother). He fasts for one month, then becomes ill. He (the Imam) said, ‘One is required to start all over again; however, if one fasts one month and one day of the next month, then it is permissible to begin from where one has left.’”
1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ جَمِيعاً عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَمِيلٍ وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حُمْرَانَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي الرَّجُلِ الْحُرِّ يَلْزَمُهُ صَوْمُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ فِي ظِهَارٍ فَيَصُومُ شَهْراً ثُمَّ يَمْرَضُ قَالَ
يَسْتَقْبِلُ وَإِنْ زَادَ عَلَى الشَّهْرِ الآخَرِ يَوْماً أَوْ يَوْمَيْنِ بَنَى عَلَى مَا بَقِيَ.
