Hadith 692
Hadith.691 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "The boundary of the Mosque of Kufa extends to the end of the lamp-makers' area. It was originally marked by Adam (as), and I dislike entering it while riding." He was asked: "Who altered its original boundaries?" Imam (as) said: "The first change occurred due to the flood during the time of Noah (as), followed by changes made by the companions of Khosrow (the Persian rulers) and al-Nu'man, and then later by Ziyad ibn Abi Sufyan."
