Hadith.99 - Abu Al-Hasan Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim (as), was asked about a man whose hand was cut off at the elbow. How should he perform wudu? Imam (as) said: "He should wash what remains of his forearm." And similarly, it was narrated regarding the amputation of the leg. When a woman performs wudu, She should remove her head covering (niqab) from the area where She wipes her head during the Fajr and Maghrib prayers, and She can wipe over it. In all other prayers, She may insert her finger to wipe over her head without having to remove her head covering.
99 - وَ سُئِلَ أَبُو اَلْحَسَنِ مُوسَى بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنْ رَجُلٍ قُطِعَتْ يَدُهُ مِنَ اَلْمِرْفَقِ كَيْفَ يَتَوَضَّأُ قَالَ
«يَغْسِلُ مَا بَقِيَ مِنْ عَضُدِهِ. وَ كَذَلِكَ رُوِيَ: فِي قَطْعِ اَلرِّجْلِ «وَ إِذَا تَوَضَّأَتِ، اَلْمَرْأَةُ أَلْقَتْ قِنَاعَهَا عَنْ مَوْضِعِ مَسْحِ رَأْسِهَا فِي صَلاَةِ اَلْغَدَاةِ وَ اَلْمَغْرِبِ وَ تَمْسَحُ عَلَيْهِ وَ يُجْزِيهَا فِي سَائِرِ اَلصَّلَوَاتِ أَنْ تُدْخِلَ إِصْبَعَهَا فَتَمْسَحَ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تُلْقِيَ عَنْهَا قِنَاعَهَا.
