4-80 Muhammad ibn al-Hassan - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Ahmad ibn Idris quoted Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya ibn Imran al-Ash’ari, who linked it up through a chain of narrators to the Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali (MGB)
“God’s Prophet (MGB) forbade greeting four people: a drunk person, a sculptor, one who throws dice, and one who gambles. I will add one case and forbid you to greet one who plays chess.”
4-80 حدثنا محمد بن الحسن رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا أحمد بن إدريس، عن محمد بن أحمد بن يحيى بن عمران الاشعري باسناده رفعه إلى أمير المؤمنين عليه السلام قال
نهى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله أن يسلم على أربعة: على السكران في سكره، وعلى من يعمل التماثيل، وعلى من يلعب بالنرد، وعلى من يلعب بالاربعة عشر، وأنا أزيدكم الخامسة أنهاكم أن تسلموا على أصحاب الشطرنج
